RuskyV Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 well my personal opinion is that if I'm paying for a DCS module then I want it to be as acurate as possible and I don't think criticism at this early stage is really a bad thing when there is ample time to get it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuskyV Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 looking closer at the two images I can see the glare shield is also a bit too short compared to the real f18 cockpit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano87 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 As somebody who has been involved in the modeling and texturing side of production for addon aircraft (FS-X) I can attest to the fact that the earlier this kind of thing is dealt with the better. By the time It gets to release an awful lot of work would have to be re-done, hopefully It can be caught now and corrected without having to do repeat too much work. I do agree it looks like it needs to be corrected though.

tifafan Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 I don't think criticism at this early stage is really a bad thing when there is ample time to get it right It's not too late to modify and have plenty of time before release. I can attest to the fact that the earlier this kind of thing is dealt with the better. By the time It gets to release an awful lot of work would have to be re-done. Yes,that's exactly what I mean.But BAD NEWS are they have already done plenty of work about the cockpit and avionics... Maybe they just don't want to rework and will ignore the feedback.

J7G Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Is that bit adjustable in real life to the pilot's preference? I'm thinking like the screens you have in the back of seats on passenger aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking like the screens you have in the back of seats on passenger aircraft. You can't change the structure of cockpit by your mean...so it's not adjustable. No.it's not.It's not the rear seat,look at the hud which cover by leather bag... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J7G Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Who said anything about the rear seat? I just made the comparison to the way it could possibly move. Thanks for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your reply. English is not my native lauguage,and I read your post too fast,so I misunderstood what you said...sorry As I said,it's not adjustable,just like that you can't adjust the back of eject seat Edited February 25, 2016 by tifafan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drag0nWIng Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Why you say that words? The texture and meshes isn't very difficult to change/fix for the 3d artist. They didn't released it or sell it until now, no one will be hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't released it or sell it until now, no one will be hurt. But with plenty work been done for cockpit and avonics it will be hard to change,because there will be plenty work related to the 3D model which also need to be change. And also this problem was found in reddit in early 2015,but haven't been changed by now. I don't know if ED knows about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver_Dragon Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) What? Difficult of change? I think you sub-estimate a 3D modeller capabilities. The F/A-18C cockpit show by Wags on early 2015 has only a "in progress" model, no the definitive cockpit. When we see a alpha or beta status, we can judge if F/A-18C has accurate or not, not by a "render" cockpit show on modelviewer 3D visor or a export test into a "early" version into DCS: W.

tifafan Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 I think you sub-estimate a 3D modeller capabilities. OK,I know.But it will be nicer to let them know about this ASAP and get it more correct before public early test. I'm really really looking forward to F/A-18C and would definitely buy it in Day1,so I'd like to report the inaccurate to make it more perfect in Day1.

Silver_Dragon Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Recheck the pictures you are post, first pic has July 2015, has different from second picture (February 2015) from reddit. The ICP was correct after the february pics. Edited February 25, 2016 by Silver_Dragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nap0leonic Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 any new news or update for the hornet module? I'm surprised that all this time there is no f-18 thread to discuss... speaking of which, where was the pics on the last page come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
