EvilBivol-1 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) There's still some confusion about some of the changes introduced in v.1.2.6. Unfortunately I don't have a comprehensive changelog available, but here are some notes on the more significant changes. Many of you have already figured your way through these, but maybe it will still be helpful to some. Please ask about other issues not covered in this list and we'll try to answer if possible. Changes in this patch include keyboard and joystick input profile updates. Unfortunately this means you have to delete (or save as a backup if you wish to keep them for a possible revert to an older version) the user keyboard and joystick folders found on your Windows drive directory \\users\User Name\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\UH-1H\. Doing so will require you to remap your controls after re-launching the game. In case you didn't realize this, it could be an operation you may have to do in the future again as we continue to update the input settings of the module. 1. Engine power has not been reduced. However collective control handle “rigging” is altered to better match real collective handle settings required throughout the engine power demand envelope. This is why you are seeing higher collective requirements during takeoff, for example. The engine torque and actual rotor blade collective angles are the same (possibly slightly different as there was some tuning of dynamics as well), but the cockpit handle positioning is what is updated. 2. Engine start/stop controls on the collective are updated to include the ignition trigger command (HOME key) and Idle Stop Release button (RWIN + T). However the engine model itself is still not affected by these changes, only the keyboard mappings and their functions are, as well as the throttle animation range. The throttle can now travel from Stop to Max freely, but going back only from Max to Idle before hitting the Idle detent. You must then press the Idle Stop Release button to allow the throttle to close fully to the Stop position. 3. The engine start/stop command changes broke the Cold Start training mission. You can download an updated version here for a manual install into \\mods\aircrafts\Uh-1H\Missions\EN\Training\Aircraft Operation\1. 4. The radar altimeter is added with a dedicated power switch toward the back of the Overhead Console. You can use the keyboard shortcut RSHIFT + R to toggle the switch. 5. The pilot’s aiming sight is functional, but the command interface is still in-progress. Currently you need to do the following to use the sight: a. Lower the sight by pressing RSHIFT + M or clicking the locking lever. b. Increase reticle brightness by turning the brightness knob toward the pilot (clockwise if looking from port side) c. Turn on the reticle See the picture guide below. Edited September 10, 2013 by EvilBivol-1 - EB [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Nothing is easy. Everything takes much longer.

EvilBivol-1 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 Just realized I forgot to add the radar altimeter to the updated cold start training. Will have to go into another update. :/ - EB [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Nothing is easy. Everything takes much longer.

sorcer3r Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I compared the 1.2.6-collective with RL footage. And it looks quite accurate. :thumbup: (pictures on the right side are in ground effect hover position.) :D [sIGPIC]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b582/sorcerer17/sorcf16-b_zpsycmnwuay.gif[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilBivol-1 Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Thanks EvilBivol-1 for clarification... But what about the missing minigun, rocket launch, bullet hit etc.. sounds "feature" ? We have two threads running with this issue, but no feedback from the devs yet !! Anyone looking into that ? FinnJ I can confirm that the missing minigun fire sound is a bug. It was accidentally introduced as a result of adding some machine gun fire audio features to the Mi-8 model. Fixed now internally and we'll try to push out with the next update. However I cannot confirm missing audio for rockets or bullet hits. These sounds are present for me when testing in the current public build. Is anyone else experiencing these sounds missing? - EB [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Nothing is easy. Everything takes much longer.

TurboHog Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) Talking about impact sounds... http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=89067 No impact sounds from HEI rounds is a bug with a long history for me. Wags shows that it's not broken in his A10A promo video, then V1.2.6 comes out and... Nothing! Same for the 23mm HEI rounds. EDIT: Sorry wrong impact sounds... I thought on the ground.

jay43 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Same here no bullet noise or hits being heard no rocket noise when fired explosions ok got them. And the most annoying part which no one has said anything about upon a re-load for the third time no tracer fire at all which makes using the guns in the Huey a waste of time without tracer fire especially if you have lost the sight reticule.

Ganesh Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) Here is a fix for the skins from Esac: Thank you! :thumbup: Ok, i´ve rebuilt the entire UH-1H liveries folder, fixing all description.lua Now it´s possible to choose any of the two versions, slicks or gunships from our Hueys with correct skins. Replace UH-1H folder inside Bazar/Liveries with this file. MAKE BACK UP FIRST ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ Remember ONLY HUMAN PLAYERS are able to see slicks, IA only shows gunships ( with or without weapons). Nothing i can do here at this point LINK EDIT: As an extra i´ve added 3 spanish custom made skins ( FAMET-ARMADA - UN NATIONS). For the UN Campaign: You still have to change the skin to UN in the loadout oft the UN Campaign ME And please BST make a hotfix for the sound issue Edited September 11, 2013 by Ganesh regards Ganesh She: "Your orders from ED have reached a total amount of $871,88 and your hardware expenses are countless..."

Esac_mirmidon Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Well bro ¡¡ here you are. UN UH-1H Campaign PLEASE take in consideration that i´ve used our UN UH-1H skin from a squad mate (included in the liveries fix i´ve posted), it´s far more accurated than the stock one. If anybody don´t like it, feel free to change it with the original one ( because you had made a back up no? XDD) " You must think in russian.."
