Devrim Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Finally there's a sound from ED. This Facebook post is from 1 hour earlier, with this text. DCS World has greatly changed since DCS: Black Shark 2 was originally released, and we thought it time to create a new Black Shark 2 trailer that places the Ka-50 in this greatly improved environment. We are also working improvements to the Ka-50 to include new graphical effects and rendering technologies. https://www.facebook.com/eagle.dynamics/videos/10160642842590341/ Ka-50's cockpit textures are current ones in video, tho... : Thank you ED!

finch Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 yeah... still old cockpit textures... don't know about the beacon light that right now is visible inside the cockpit and is impossible to have on without getting crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devrim Posted June 28, 2018 Author Share Posted June 28, 2018 Yea you're right. Actually there're so many bugs that need to be fixed immediately; lights in cockpit, smokes in cockpit, no proper ATC response in multiplayer, PC freeze in crowded servers, server lags, some sound issues etc. etc. All these are something that reduces the enjoyment of the sim unfortunately. i7-2600 @3.4GHz | Corsair 16GB @1600MHz. | MSI GTX1660Ti Gaming X | Samsung 256GB SSD (Win10HPx64) Samsung G5 32" + Samsung 18" + 2x8"TFT Displays | Saitek X-55 Rhino & Rudder | TM MFD Cougars | Logitech G13, G230, G510, PZ55 & Farming Sim Panel | TIR5 >>MY MODS<< | Discord: Devrim#1068 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaD CrC Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Well, whatever they do for our beloved Shark, I am really happy and thankful to see that they are putting some love back into this fantastic old module. Maybe for the 10th anniversary of the release of this module?

electricaltill Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 (edited) This is fantastic news. I have only been starting to get deep into the ka-50 since 2.5 came out so the wee problems are making it quite difficult. Thanks for keeping it alive ED, I'm really excited!

thrustvector Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 great to see and hear this, at last, always think its a shame that ED never seem to keep us informed on here though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aviators Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 great!!! L'importante non è stabilire se uno ha paura o meno, è saper convivere con la propria paura e non farsi condizionare dalla stessa. Ecco, il coraggio è questo, altrimenti non è più coraggio ma incoscienza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheThumper Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Same, don't use Facebook, but this did pop up in my YouTube feed. Very happy to see some attention to the Shark as it is very fun (and challenging) to fly and fight with. Thanks! ~Thump.

Johnny Dioxin Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 What are the current night vision options? I just looked on the DCS pages for the Ka-50 and it says the OVN-1 is available, but can't find it anywhere in the control options. (Except the switch on the back wall, which I assumed referred to the NVG tolerant VC lighting). https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/products/helicopters/black_shark/?PAGEN_1=3 Not flown in 2.5 at night yet, so... If it's not working, that would be a nice addition, too Kneeboard Guides Rig: Asus B650-GAMING PLUS; Ryzen 7800X3D ; 64GB DDR5 5600; RTX 4080; VPC T50 CM2 HOTAS; SN-1 Pedals; VR = Pico 4 over VD Wireless + Index; Point Control v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boberro Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Yeah but the equipment will stay as is. So no RWR, no FLIR but you get new effects which will be sync with the look of new engine. Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make...

Devrim Posted July 3, 2018 Author Share Posted July 3, 2018 What are the current night vision options?...Ka-50 has NVG and you request groud crew to switch/install it before take off. i7-2600 @3.4GHz | Corsair 16GB @1600MHz. | MSI GTX1660Ti Gaming X | Samsung 256GB SSD (Win10HPx64) Samsung G5 32" + Samsung 18" + 2x8"TFT Displays | Saitek X-55 Rhino & Rudder | TM MFD Cougars | Logitech G13, G230, G510, PZ55 & Farming Sim Panel | TIR5 >>MY MODS<< | Discord: Devrim#1068 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electricaltill Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I think NVGs are broken in 2.5 anyway, I'm hoping it's something else on the fix list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
