Just 2 little videos to show weapons first implementation

Cannon -> http://youtu.be/NivE67V0d0M

HOT missiles --> http://youtu.be/2cBo1NzQm5o

The targeting system was not done at the moment of the videos, so the HOTs fly ballistic...

To be continued ...

 

Oh, Would some of you have photos of french gazelle pilots suited for flight to share, any else country will do too, soon the Gazelle will show a brand new 3D cockpit entirely remade plus HD pilot and copilot

 

Thanks

Great, that helo looks really cool already!

btw:

I think maybe you should consider talking to Fragger (the guy who does the Bo-105), you two might be able to share some assets to make both of your work even better, especially the HOT weapon system, which is the same one in both helos IIRC.

 

I'm not even a helo fan but I'm looking forward to this. :)

Sounds like a very good plan to me.

DCS: Pixel Density 1.0, Forced IPD at 55 (perceived world size), 0 X MSAA, 0 X SSAA. My real IPD is 64.5mm. Prescription VROptition lenses installed. VR Driver system: I9-9900KS 5Ghz CPU. XI Hero motherboard and RTX 3090 graphics card, 64 gigs Ram, No OC at the mo. MT user  (2 - 5 fps gain). DCS run at 60Hz.

Vaicom user. Thrustmaster warthog user. MFG pedals with damper upgrade.... and what an upgrade! Total controls Apache MPDs set to virtual Reality height with brail enhancements to ensure 100% button activation in VR.. Simshaker Jet Pro vibration seat.. Uses data from DCS not sound.... you know when you are dropping into VRS with this bad boy.

Congratulations for your creation! It would be a "buy" for me when it gets finished! Greek Cypriot forces use this helicopter equipped with HOT missiles! They have a very nice desert-like skin!

Hi,

 

Weapons Step 2 : Feature for the pilot to fire gun or HOT missiles (for playability)

Feature beeing activated/Deactivated in Options screen

Gun reticle is not movable and HOT missiles are fire and forget style for the piot

 

Next step will be the same for the copilot + TV screen + commands + gun slaved to the target + missile guidance during its flight to the target

Of course cockpit is not representative of the final product

I like it, thanks for the update, Pat!

 

About the gun: I love the recoil effect, you can really feel that the Gazelle is a light helicopter. Which gun did you build in, the 20mm? It looks a bit too strong maybe. I mean the explosions. I might be wrong though.

 

Keep up the good work!

Wow! Good progress... in cockpit sounds neat. Did you just trim, or use any auto hover for the HOT launch?

Hi,

@Aginor, old GIAT M621 20mm Gun, The explosions are the game's ones, I didn't change anything with them

 

The Gun recoil effect has been parametered so I can controll it, just to set the best amount

The missiles don't involve any recoil (my own point of view), I'll have to get confirmation from real pilots

 

@Shagrat, no auto hover, just a stability augmentation system with all axis not trimmed (to 0), the trim system is like the ka-50 at the moment (move the stick in position and press the key/button)

 

For aerobatic manoeuvers (looping, complete roll ...) one will have to switch the "Autopilot" (much more like a stability augmentation system) OFF

 

The yaw axis of the SAS also deals with the rotor counter-moment for you

 

Really challenging flying without the SAS, Fortunately you can activate/deactivate axis one by one

...

 

 

Missiles 9M14-2T (Serbian Air Force) when launching - no recoil.

For HOT missiles I don't know.
