It will be authentic Mustang's gun camera.

ED Team Yo-Yo Posted July 26, 2012 ED Team Share Posted July 26, 2012 Hi Yo-Yo This needs to go into the manual - both Quickstart, and the main manual. Can you arrange with Asso, Chizh etc? I'll try. The feature needs to be extended a little - just to disable rotating the camera and set FOV exactly as in real camera (now I have no simple mean to adjust accurate FOV - just by eyes). And then assign a special button to select this view. Alex promised to do it but the movement in this direction needs to be pushed a little...

ED Team JimMack Posted July 26, 2012 ED Team Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) I see many posts on all the forum sections about Air Combat Maneuvering. Many questions are asked time and time again. The answers are in the "Bible", for 1stWW, 2ndWW, and modern aircraft. Fighter Combat - by Robert L. Shaw http://www.amazon.com/Fighter-Combat-Maneuvering-Robert-Shaw/dp/0870210599/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1343309845&sr=1-1&keywords=fighter+combat You might like to look at the other 2 books on the Amazon link. Flying combat in a flight sim is more difficult than real life, because you do not have the cues the body gives, onset of G, the feeling in your body that you are slipping or sliding in a turn, etc etc It is essential to have "soft hands". Use finger tip control on the joystick. Pulling excessive G just bleeds off speed. Learn how to download (-G) and disengage to get into a better position with higher energy.

Pougatchev Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Here is a nice reading I have and this one helping me in dogfight, especially in Falcon 4 BMS & DCS Mustang. Allied Fighter Aces: The Air Combat Tactics and Techniques of World War II http://www.amazon.com/Allied-Fighter-Aces-Tactics-Techniques/dp/1853672823 I'm gonna make a tutorial about dogfight basics, and explaining some basics rules like power management, corner speed, I think that can help some people like me in the past => totally lost with dogfight and just pulling hard on the stick without any knowledge :smartass: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Make the reporting system great again! https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=234508 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team Yo-Yo Posted July 26, 2012 ED Team Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) Thanks. He seems to know so much about the stang behavior I assumed he was the FM guy. I am really an FM guy. But I never put my hands on the code in the project. We work together with Max but on the different fields. I know WHAT - he knows HOW. I write formulas and algorithms - he makes them working fast, effective and reliable.

VIMANAMAN Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Thought it would be interesting to tangle with the AI above high mountains. It's a lot of fun when you've got to recover speed and find a valley at the same time:) Best fights are too long to show and tend to end without a kill, but have some awesome close encounters with terrain:) I was pleased with the turning at height - As Yo-Yo said if you centre the ball you sure can get a high rate of turn! - in a flatish turn I think you can V slowly out turn the AI, under the right circumstances. I've been trying to get the hang of the predictor sight - no joy - thanks Mop for highlighting it needs a fix. Believe it or not I wasn't using labels (altho I wished I was a certain times).

Echo38 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Very basic video here; no camera editing, just a direct track export: Not the most excellent fight, but it did get our blood pumping. The other guy and I both screwed up pretty badly, and my gunnery is rather laughable at this point, but we had fun and learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chill31 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Does the AI suffer from engine overheat the same as the player? When I DF against the AI, his radiator door never even opens, yet mine is noticeably open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIMANAMAN Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) Well I'm loving this new AI - I'm either totally imaging it or the AI now does have some proper G issues to deal with. Am working my way slowly up the Skill levels - this took all afternoon - my shootings getting better believe it or not! And if I ever let the AI go down the left I've had it:) Yo-Yo It sure would be good to see a vid of the epic 1v2AI you described a day or two ago - sounds like some awesome flying. Oh and by the way - was reviewing old version vids and why not bring back the FULL cockpit plexiglass shadows and reflections - that was SO realistic!! Seriously - maybe toned down a touch but it was GOLD visually! Chill31 I don't think the AI suffer from overheating yet?? but either way this shouldn't matter - you can keep up with it (on the Avg / good skill settings anyway) with only a little over max continuous and the rads fully open - so long as you practise a lot. I'm saving FMP & WEP for when I really need it :( Edited December 6, 2012 by VIMANAMAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jona33 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 The trick to that is record the flight from the track with your own views, it makes it look like you're not cheating. :D Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiumR Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Here's mine. At first the AI gave me a lot of trouble but I finally figured out how to bring him down. P.S. I think the AI is perfect for the "excellent" setting, but maybe should be a little easier for good and average. It's crazy tough to take him down on full realism settings imo.

Manuel Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Why are you guys not stalling all the time. Did you disable some of the realistic features? If I would fly like you do, I got lots of accelerated stall and so on.
