QuiGon Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 The target elevation reference parameter sets whether the target altitude is in MSL or HAE. MSL = elevation above mean sea level and HAE = height above ellipsoid. GPS uses a standard ellipsoid (WGS84) as a model of the earth, so this setting allows you to set coordinates in the receiver's native format, or the regular meters/feet above sea level you'd find in a map etc. MSL coordinates are automatically converted to HAE by the onboard systems in the JDAM. And don't worry about the "above" part of HAE; it accepts negative numbers as well. Anything between -100m / -328ft to +10000m / 32808 ft. I learned something entirely new there.

Yes, but he said that yesterday (Sunday), which was last week.

Nealius Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Yes, but he said that yesterday (Sunday), which was last week. I grew up with Sunday being the start of the week, and every calendar I have used in my 31 years of existence has started the week on a Sunday, which would make his statement this week.

Well that's weird, because it's the exact opposite for me. :huh: I grew up with learning that Monday is the start of the week and all calenders I've seen start the week on Monday (including the MS Outlook calendar). I'm not religious in any way, but according to the bible, isn't Sunday supposed to be the 7th day where god rested after his work was done when he created the earth?

Nealius Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Are we talking the week as a whole, or specifically the idea of a "work week," which for me would start on Monday as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nealius Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Must be a regional thing. I grew up in the US where a full week is Sunday to Saturday (work week being Monday to Friday), and now live in Japan where it's pretty much the same; though often a work week here is Monday to Saturday. All my physical calendars, Google calendars, iPhone calendars, and Windows 10 calendar follow the same format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drPhibes Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 This reminds me of the "winter starts on a specific date, the fact that it's -10°C and 20cm of snow outside proves nothing!"-discussions regarding the F-14 release window. I guess you have to think in American to find it logical that the week starts in the middle of, and not after, the weekend :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomCatMucDe Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 The Open Beta is due this week on 16th. The next one is in 2 weeks. It's safe to say he meant this week. Otherwise in 2 weeks. Gesendet von meinem SM-G965F mit Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gesendet von meinem SM-G965F mit Tapatalk Where did they said so? I just remember them saying, that the 16th will be the date for the next update, but I assume it will be an update for the Stable Release as it is still behind the Open Beta since mid-December.

I am not sure that new modules are only released in Open Beta. One thing for sure, is that Open Beta is released this Wednesday. They rarely release 2 open bite with 1 week difference. Though it did happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow KT Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Did anyone notice the vapor effects on the HARM from the video ? Surely that is not the motor spoke, doesn't look like your usual DCS motor smone, plus I think the HARM has a smokeless motor 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuiGon Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Will it be possible to target enemy aircraft that have their radar on or even locked at you?

In reality if the Aircraft's radar operates within the HARM's detectable bands then it can. In game, things are different. Radar energy itself is not coded with frequencies and wave lengths. Basic radar is simple - detect object, get object. More advanced radar functionality is coming as DCS matures and who knows what the future holds. I, personally, would not expect that type of behavior anytime soon.
