Is the discord still up? The link doesn't seem good anymore.

Critical game breaking bug here, In multiplayer I need the ability to fly over to my friends still starting on the ground and honk at them with the Mi8's horn. It seems the horn SFX are client side only which I feel is a terrible oversight and needs to be corrected asap. Also, make a bind for it in the controls so I can have it easily accessible on my button box for quick honk access. Thank you for your consideration.

+1. Gamepad seems like the best option for the CPG position and managing the TEDAC, but it's going to need some love to make it work properly.

Bumping, even more relevant these days considering how prevalent manportable equipment has become in the Ukraine conflict.

I isolated just the NVG portion of this mod because it actually makes NVGs work and look like they do in real life. However I randomly get a bug where the "noise mask" is not aligned with the NVG tubes so I get an effect that looks like the uploaded image. Seems like it might have something to do with the alignment of the VR headset when the game opens or something? Not too sure. Anyone have ideas to fix this?

Yes 100% this is still a problem. Perhaps it is related to dynamically spawned units? You can spawn in a KA50 and see all sams on the ABRIS then just copy down coordinates go find those units. Totally ruins gameplay on PVP servers involving ground combat.

I have also noticed specifically the wings and jettison/firing circuits are waaay to vulnerable. Like first hit every time and I have hung stores.

Thanks gnomechild! If anyone is interested I also wrote keybindings to select the SPU-8 position settings that works nicely with gnomechild's script. I have a 6 position selector on my button box this is bound to. By default the only thing you can do is increment or decrement the position but this lets you bind a key to each selector position. Simply add the following code under ---- Intercom Panels---- in the default.lua file. This file is located at \Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\Mi-24P\Input\Mi_24P_pilot\joystick\default.lua --Custom Radio Selector {pressed = SPU_8_Mi24_commands.CMD_SPU8_P_MODE, value_pressed = 0, cockpit_device_id = devices.SPU_8, name = _('SPU-8 - R-863'), category = {_('SPU-8 Intercom Panels')}}, {pressed = SPU_8_Mi24_commands.CMD_SPU8_P_MODE, value_pressed = 0.2, cockpit_device_id = devices.SPU_8, name = _('SPU-8 - VHF *NF*'), category = {_('SPU-8 Intercom Panels')}}, {pressed = SPU_8_Mi24_commands.CMD_SPU8_P_MODE, value_pressed = 0.4, cockpit_device_id = devices.SPU_8, name = _('SPU-8 - R-828 EUCALYPT'), category = {_('SPU-8 Intercom Panels')}}, {pressed = SPU_8_Mi24_commands.CMD_SPU8_P_MODE, value_pressed = 0.6, cockpit_device_id = devices.SPU_8, name = _('SPU-8 - JADRO-1A'), category = {_('SPU-8 Intercom Panels')}}, {pressed = SPU_8_Mi24_commands.CMD_SPU8_P_MODE, value_pressed = 0.8, cockpit_device_id = devices.SPU_8, name = _('SPU-8 - ARC-15'), category = {_('SPU-8 Intercom Panels')}}, {pressed = SPU_8_Mi24_commands.CMD_SPU8_P_MODE, value_pressed = 1, cockpit_device_id = devices.SPU_8, name = _('SPU-8 - ARC-U2'), category = {_('SPU-8 Intercom Panels')}}, I also edited gnomechild's script a bit so the order matches that of the SPU-8.

Not sure the exact breakdown of the gen busses but my understanding is they are parallel and automatically will load all busses onto the good generator in the event of a single gen failure. So you wouldn't even notice a blip because the main transformers never go offline, let alone the standbys. The PT125 shouldnt even be remotely involved in a single gen fail. I havent noticed this kicking on but then again I havent really looked.. most of my gen fails are from drooping.

Yeah that is my understanding.. each transformer has a main/standby/emergency.. where the emergency ones are the inverters. The PO750A needs to be switched on manually but the PT125 should auto switch on if both the main and standby transformers have failed.

I may have answered my own question because I think this is a typo in the manual.. it seems the 36VAC 1 phase transformers are powered by the 115VAC busses, not the 36VAC 3phase transformers.. the 3 phase are powered by the generators directly. However, you should still be able to power everything on the 36VAC3P bus with the PT125 inv. Right now if you are in IMC and get gen fails you're hooped and cant get the gyro/adi back. The PT125 seems to do nothing at the moment.

Looking at the Mi-24D manual I have in english, it goes over the bus loading tables (attached relevant tables). Question: if I power the PO750A inverter - this powers the 115VAC inverter bus. Then I can tie this bus to the 115VAC bus with the INV GND TEST SWITCH which should power the 36VAC transformer and everything on the 36VAC main and emergency busses. This doesnt seems to work because I cant get the gyros or ADIs to power. Also the PT125 inv alone should power the no.2 gyro and ADIs.. so you should in flight be able to switch off the gens, switch on the PT125 inv, and switch to gyro #2 which should give you the ADI and stby AI.. but this doesnt seem to work. Is my info bad or is this not modelled correctly?

Is there a lua edit to do this? move it foward?

Yes. Really need this. Multiplayer is being spoiled by players who magically know where units are on the ABRIS.
