Cobra847 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Here's a quick video of an intense dogfight with a MiG-29. The F-14B is no slouch in WVR fights. :) Obligatory: This is pre-pre-pre-Alpha. Many things are wrong and pending to be fixed! 1 Nicholas Dackard Founder & Lead Artist Heatblur Simulations https://www.facebook.com/heatblur/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra847 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 The refresh rate will be higher for certain elements on the HUD. In this video, examples include the guncross and tracking diamond, which exist on a seperate rasterizer. These will refresh more quickly than e.g. nav elements. Once we have implemented our shaders for the HUD (think Viggen HUD) -- it will look far more natural with a lower refresh rate. Right now it's quite jarring, especially in 60fps contrast to everything else.

CheckGear Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 THAT. WAS. DAGGUM. INTENSE!!! Right now, Fleet Defender is still the bone fide Tomcat simulator, but one of the things I never liked was how they made the F-14 feel like a pig. It looks like Heatblur is going to simulate the Tomcat accurately, as the highly-manueverable bird it actually was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nero.ger Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Actually, it would be best if they could make it an option (ie. flickering HUD ON). For some people like me, eyes get irritated. I actually can't even look at strobe lights on some modules like the M2000C. Anyways, just my preference. 100% agree i myself are also somewhat...sensetive to such things 'controlling' the Ka50 feels like a discussion with the Autopilot and trim system about the flight direction.

frixon28 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Excuse me for asking a possibly over asked question, but I have been out of the loop on the Tomcat for a while. Are we still getting the A model first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addde Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Excuse me for asking a possibly over asked question, but I have been out of the loop on the Tomcat for a while. Are we still getting the A model first? I dont Think they have ever said we will get the A model first. They have said that they will try to release both at the same time but if thats not possible, the B will come first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torso Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Wow, very cool. Can you correct me if I am wrong but it looks like you guys are adding some shake to the face curtain handles. Is that correct? If so, just looks amazing and adds life to the cockpit itself. Very very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
