RazorbackNL Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) News No 34. Glorious crew of MI-8MTV2, took another step forward in their professional development! Introduced a new function - voice-over of helicopter crew reading the checklists. Checklist servs as additional control option of most important operations which determine the helicopter and crew readiness for the next stage of flight. Control using the control checklist is a compulsory complex of operations carried out by order of commander specified stages of flight. After the command "Read Checklist" is given, each crew member perform commands according to checklist and reports performs on completion. There will be 6 new commands in settings menu: LShift + Num1 LShift + Num2 .. + Num6 the number on the numeric keypad stands for corresponding checklist card number. Procedures according to checklist card after pressing the corresponding button will go continuously. In case all checklist card requirements are met then there will be no delay and next card item will be processed. If condition is not met, card item is being read, then if within 5 seconds condition is met - there will be an answer. In other case after 5 seconds have passed all checklist reading procedure stops. Note for the real pilots. There are few checklists in army aviation and a lot of in civil. We made an intermediate version of the checklists, suitable for flight conditions in DCS. Checklists are especially prepared for the MI-8 on MTV2 DCS by BELSIMTEK. Translated by - Laivynas Moderator/ED Testers Team Hi guys, I am having issues with this new feature. I simply can't get it to work. Pressing each one of these six commands results in..well...nothing actually. Am I missing something? Could it not be working in combination with the Rift CV1? It doesn't work in both 1.5 Public and 2.0 OA. Edited April 17, 2017 by Razorback[NL] Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (Wi-Fi) | AMD Ryzen 9 5900X @ 4,5Ghz | 128Gb DDR4 3200Mhz | beQuiet!

msalama Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Probably means you can control the AI gunners with a JS now. Think I need to check this option out... The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looney Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Keep looking at the Wednesday update briefs on the forums, that should give you enough information regarding bugs and features of the Mi-8. Right now, they've changed the gunners behavior as well as implement the slider AI accuracy in the mission editor in DCS2.1 We can only hope it'll make its way into 1.5 soon.

Ce_Zeta Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Is Garmin coming anytime soon? Hip pilots doesn't need a GPS.

Especially FSX background players. I was joking :), the emote :D was the clue. Of course, implementation of a Garmin GPS is a great improvement in the field of avionics, especially for players. :P [sIGPIC]http://i.imgur.com/YexElgV.jpg[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This feature doesn't function, the avionics language in the in game settings must be set to native (Russian) in order for this to work. Hopefully this will be fixed in the near future, because I don't understand Russian and find this to be a very useful feature for flying the Mi-8MTV2.

Nooch Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 for $15?! Well, it's a complete and thorough simulation of this gps system. So I understand why they're making us pay for it. I would have expected to see it at 10 bucks instead of 15 but hey at least it's still in the realm of reason. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have expected to see it at 10 bucks instead of 15 but hey at least it's still in the realm of reason. Since $15 is not a sale price, you can use bonus bucks on it. I think I paid $11. Doesn't actually "solve" the issue, but does make it a bit cheaper for people with bonus bucks lying around. --gos My liveries, mods, and missions for DCS:World M-2000C English Cockpit | Extra Beacons Mod | Nav Kneeboard | Community A-4E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDieing Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 People seem to forget how much effort its takes to make things like this, let alone production cost. Nagging about a few bucks for something you can have hours of fun with. For this money you buy yourself a meal which you eat in 10 minutes and your body processes it in 1 hour, and I dont here anybody complaining about that. 1 ''Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.''

I buy a car and now need to pay for extra's. Whats next? Pay for different rims? Navigation system? This is a module that isnt for the Mi-8 only. Mi-8 is just the first to support it, well and L-39, unofficially kinda. - Jack of many DCS modules, master of none. - Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS. | Windows 11 | i5-12400 | 64Gb DDR4 | RTX 3080 | 2x M.2 | 27" 1440p | Rift CV1 | Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS | MFG Crosswind pedals | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John C Flett Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I buy a module and now needs to purchase single systems for $ 15. What is the next? No thanks! Need? That's the question. As long as these addons remain optional I'd say go for it. If the next Hip campaign requires the module to run I'd have a problem. For the time being though, I think this is an interesting direction and opens up a number of ways to develop DCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
