I have heard there will be hangar space in the Nimitz eventually, so logically there must also be working elevators too.

Whoa. I never saw this vid before. I see the animations for the elevators are there, but this vid is kinda old. Need some official word from the ED Team for confirmation. Thanks for the vid link BTW.

Thanks for the pilot body! A personal wish : is it possible to have an option without the left hand ? Because it prevents clicking the buttons on the left panel (bms has a legs only pilot option) (OT would like to see this option also for the Mirage, which has a very functional on hand radar control panel under throttle). The ideal solution would be of course , if the left hand could act as a mouse cursor when the mouse is over the panel , mimicking the real life physical movement. But i don't know if it's technically possible to do this animation.

I think the difficulty in that lies in the different dimensions of all cockpits, meaning you'd have to model it for each aircraft individually.

 

I'd much rather see some sort of 'flashlight x-ray' where your cursor just makes the pilot body transparent wherever you're pointing.

That would help a lot, especially in VR.

Will the water on the canopy produce the optical illusion related to refraction?

-Rain on the windscreen can create an illusion of being at a higher altitude due to the horizon appearing lower than it is

-This can result in flying a lower approach than is desired

 

 

===

Don't move this question to the Reality/Chit-Chat forum: it will hurt my feelings again.

 

Why does this question belong in the F/A-18C thread? Because it's the only place where water-on-the-canopy feature is currently discussed.

Regarding the FM, is there noticeable inertia / drift when turning / rolling the aircraft or the plane fly's more '' on rails''?

 

 

On this video, it seems that the plane / flight path marker drifts to the (right) side while rolling out (3:09 - 3:12)

Hey I got a question.

 

 

Do you see how when he turns his head right to check his six, the view snaps to the side of the seat, simulating how you would really turn around to look.

 

Is this a new feature ? I really like it ! Instead of just rotating the view around an axis as it is now

Hmm, my DCS does that without any mods.

Not in VR of course, there you have to really move to check your six.

I know that Once the F/A-18C releases it releases to open beta and once it is ok with no major problems how long does it take to get to the stable version on 2.5

 

Anyone remember how long it was before the Harrier moved to stable from open beta? I can't remember any major bugs that had to be squashed before it was introduced to stable so that might give the timetable from bug-free to stable, I think it was (an actual) two weeks funnily enough.

 

I don't suggest making any plans. I think ED were optimistic that DCS 2.5 was free of major bugs when it came to open beta and it wound up being three months. If it takes longer than you're prepared to wait and you don't want a second DCS install, you can always look up the guide for converting a stable install to open beta.

I think it was the week after wasn't it? Maybe 2. It was quick.

Looks like we'll get the Hornet in the next 2 weeks - given that the Persian Gulf map will arrive after the Hornet, and both are appearing before the end of the month according to this video just released by Wags.

 

Great news indeed!

This makes sense, too. Get the Press Releases out a couple weeks before the main release to consumers. SO PUMPED!
