*Rage* Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Absolutely amazing!!!

Ells228 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 DCS all the way!! Some avionics systems may not be quite real world due to sensitivity of course but we'll be as close as we're allowed to be. Link to comment
Neon67 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 nice, thanks for the reply , btw is the team still recruiting ? Link to comment

tobaschi Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 VEAO is stable and we are on track for releasing the Hawk next month and still aim to release Typhoon by the end of the year. We have full support from TFC and ED. Let's leave it at that. Thanks, Chris. one question, how will you integrate the datalink? do you have to code that by yourself or is that functionality deliverd by the dcs engine? (e.g. the link16) Link to comment
Ells228 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 nice, thanks for the reply , btw is the team still recruiting ? Depends, what can you do? Send me a PM one question, how will you integrate the datalink? do you have to code that by yourself or is that functionality deliverd by the dcs engine? (e.g. the link16) To be determined with ED as no other 3rd party current aircraft has datalink that will be released soon (I could be wrong of course). Link to comment
X93355 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 This here Ells, is why I rate you as one of the best communicators here. That you have included information about the team being stable is fantastic. I certainly would be willing to pre-purchase the Hawk and the Tiffy if you decide to take pre-orders. One question, for final release will the cockpits have a worn look? Thanks Craig Thanks for pointing it out Howie. This is a direct port from out FC2 product and the entire airframe is getting a work over to increase the poly's. We were on a limited budget for FC2 but that has increased significantly for DCS. We had to make trade offs for FC2 and a straighter frame base was one of them (straight lines = less poly's). And to answer a couple of questions; we have a separate team working on the Typhoon and negotiations will be finalised and contracts signed prior to work starting. I won't comment or speculate on the MiG situation so please don't ask me to and let's leave the team to resolve things by themselves.

Ells228 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 Thanks Craig, appreciate your comments :) Hawk is being released public beta next month so you can buy it then. Tiffy is a long way off yet and we'll see how the Hawk sales go before we decide on pre-orders for Tiffy. Tiffy will be priced at $49.99 as per other DCS modules. Link to comment

theJournier Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Excellent, I really look forward to this beauty. If I may ask, how are you tweaking the Eurofighter to fill in the gaps, with what you can't share? Did you use some features or characteristics from older fighters, like F-15, Mirage, etc..? Or did you just leave those gaps open? I.E. the Eurofighter uses X-missile but it's classified so you used what is known, and made an based-on-truth version using stats from an older missile. Or did you leave it out... or both? Edited January 23, 2014 by theJournier Link to comment
Python Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Would buying the Hawk speed up the work done on the Tiffy? I have no interested in the Hawk, but have very keen on the Typhoon. But if it means supporting the team then I'll happily pull the plug. Might not speed things up as no doubt they are working to a deadline that has been carefully planned out. But presumably the more funds they get from the hawk will give them the confidence to put it towards and spend even more on the typhoon making it an even better product in the end. All that aside, you might find you love the little hawk if you buy it. :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment
rajdary Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I will buy the Hawk just to support Veao, because my real interest is the Typhoon. Its also good to have something to chew untill the Tiffy arrives by the end of the year or so.I hope the Hawk becomes a success!

Flogger23m Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) DCS all the way!! Some avionics systems may not be quite real world due to sensitivity of course but we'll be as close as we're allowed to be. Will there be a slightly cheaper version with FC3 level avionics? Also, is the Meteor actually in service as of now? And which specific version of the Eurofighter is this? Edited February 8, 2014 by Flogger23m Link to comment

Slipp Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Will the delay on the Hawk also effect Typhoon? Link to comment
Deadsix Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I want to say no but I'm not a dev. I say this because I believe Ells once mentioned another team was working on the Typhoon. Link to comment
