tifafan Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) It' seems that ED has corrected this problem. No need to read the text below. I don't know if ED is aware of this.But it's not too late to modify it. Please look at the UFC panel,DCS ver. is less protruding comparing the real one. The structure is not accurate...

Vitesse2l Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 There's several differences between those shots, as well as areas that obviously wip. You'd need to know exactly which model the rl aircraft is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvsgas Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Is not even out yet and we are already looking for discrepancies? ok thanks, I can't wait for release day, people will go nuts I guess. As Vitesse2l pointed, any chance we know the F/A-18 version on the picture? I mean more that it's a C. What year was the photo taken? What updates has the aircraft gone through? What was the BuNo or that aircraft? etc. How does it compare to the version ED and partners is modeling? Is it the same version, same year, etc? Not saying ED version is wrong or right, I simply would like more information if we could find it or help find it.

And it's not too difficult to change it because it's still WIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The structure of F/A-18A or C cockpit is basicly the same.In this Case, UFC panel structure is notaccurate.I'm not saying the instrument is not accurate.It's the structure!

Enduro14 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I'm sure it's been changed for the better since every other pit is amazing and in 3D or vr. Those are some early work in progress photos anyway. Good to bring it up but I'm sure we won't get any answers until the f18c thread is moved out of the Chit Chat section Intel 8700k @5ghz, 32gb ram, 1080ti, Rift S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barra1 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 While noting that this is still a WIP, I would have to agree with Tifafan. Clearly the structure of the UFC protrudes further from the instrument panel in the photo than the 3D model we have seen to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixen Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I think it's allright that he mentions it. It's not like he's saying don't buy the module its crap etc, etc. He just mentioned it and now ed can see if it is incorrect or not and maybe they allready fixed it.

It's harder and harder to change the cockpit 3D model When time passing by because plenty of work have been done about the cockpit.So if change the 3D model,there will be also plenty work need to be modify.

Rangi Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) There was big huff on reddit about this a while back (google reddit dcs F-18 ) . Personally even if it is a bit shallow it doesn't matter to me. Most likely the only reason it sticks out so far in the real jet is there is not enough room to push it back, a problem we don't have in the virtual world.

Yes,I quoted two 3d model pictures from that thread. It's not a big matter,but I still feel a little uncomfortable about the inaccurate. It's easy to get many F/A-18C cockpit images,I don't understand why ED made this baffling mistake... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
