-Martin- Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Dear All, I have recently noticed a great feature of the L-39 special tab, the option to dismount the gun camera. It works greatly in SP; nevertheless, it does not work for me in MP. It does not appear to me that this should be controlled by server administrators, please correct me if I am wrong. My DCS Version: 1.5.5 on Steam. Additionally, I would like to take this as an opportunity to express how greatly L-39 performs on the ACG Cold War MP Server. Dogfighting F-5s on this great server is a joy and I personally find it a balanced experience; challenging and rewarding. Dismounting the gun camera enhances the view, which in turn makes dogfighting in L-39 even better. Best Wishes, Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpoetic6 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 You sure you're using a L-39C in MP? The L-39ZA in MP always have the gun camera. The toggle option only affect the 39C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Martin- Posted November 18, 2016 Author Share Posted November 18, 2016 Thank you for your answer. I was actually talking above only about L-39ZA and yes, from my experience, the gun camera cannot be dismounted in MP on this plane. I considered it a bug since I was able to dismount it in SP. Your response prompted me to test L-39C in MP. Oddly, regardless of my setting on two servers I tested, not only the gun camera was absent but the whole gunsight. So now it seems to me that either this setting is determined solely by server administrators or L-39C in MP is always without the gunsight and L-39ZA has both the gunsight and the gun camera, regardless on what I set in DCS. In either case, I hope that eventually I will be able to fly L-39ZA in MP without the gun camera as I can do in SP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkateZilla Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 IIRC it shouldnt be able to dismount from the ZA at all, nor the HUD.

-Martin- Posted November 18, 2016 Author Share Posted November 18, 2016 Thank you for your response. Of course, I did not expect that one would be able to dismount the gunsight in reality on L-39ZA, and we are not able to do that in DCS. But if the same is true for the guncamera, I was wondering why the option to have it removed had been implemented in DCS. I personally find this option great as explained above, and I hope it will stay. In any case, observing that L-39C is too unaffected by my setting in MP, I came to personal conclusion that whether or not the guncamera is present on L-39ZA depends on the server settings. I will consider positing my query directly to server administrators, should it be indeed possible and appropriate. All the Best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkateZilla Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I'll have to double check. L-39C had it removable for training/aerobatics etc L-39ZA is a Combat Version, so it should not be removable IIRC.

Blaze Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) There are a few ZA models that have the gunsights removed, mainly ones in civilian hands.
