Zeus67 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Nice job Larry, Will this crosshair always be displayed on the screen? No. that is an alignment tool that I use when developing displays. It helps me put everything in its place. It won't be there upon release.

Hummingbird Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Would be a cool feature if you could press a button and get a big version of the HDD's to show on the top right corner like on those pics.

Zeus67 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 @zeus67, you guys using the same lighting pod code from the DCS-a10c or you working on a new code line? We are using the same tools ED used for the A-10C's LITENING POD. It is unavoidable, they are the only tools that exist in order to create a targeting pod.

Thank you for the answer, the ED lighting POD is great, the only issue is "and not limited to The LITENING" is the FLIR in general got broken at some point during the patches and does not work very well or in a realistic way, They did say they will re make it at some point but not sure on its progress.

It has a problem in 1.5.6 and it seems that it was fixed for 2.0.5.

Deezle Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 It has a problem in 1.5.6 and it seems that it was fixed for 2.0.5. It's only "fixed" in 2.0 because of the contrast with the desert terrain of NTTR. Here's hoping ED will implement a proper FLIR simulation soon.

Or is it like the A-10C black and whiteish?

BritTorrent Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Two days into the LITENING pod development and all I have been doing is MPCD pages. There are five of them (actually seven if you count the two service ones). Well, it seems that tomorrow will be the last day I spend with MPCD pages and their navigation, so I can go to the core of the matter: managing the LITENING pod and getting video. Here is one of the MPCD pages, the others are similar. Hey Zeus. Is the intention to map the MFD OSB buttons mappable? It'd be nice to actually get to use my Thrustmaster MFD's properly!

splash Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 In my case I have an old TrackIR with 3 DOF and I won't be able to see left buttons in right MFD and right buttons in left MFD, so it would be nice to map those OSB buttons into my Thrustmaster MFD too.

firmek Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 It's only "fixed" in 2.0 because of the contrast with the desert terrain of NTTR. Here's hoping ED will implement a proper FLIR simulation soon. That was also my understanding. Basically NTTR obviously is using desert textures which makes the targets stand out more from the ground compared to Caucasus. Anyway, once Normandy is out we'll have some good indication if spotting targets is easier. Though I wouldn't expect a proper FLIR yet.

Kestral5003 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 So, was there a final verdict on whether or not the Harrier will be able to land, re-arm and take off again from FARP's? Either in VTOL or STOL? Would give it great versatility seeing as it has limited stores compared to the A-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it will be even easier with the Harrier. :thumbup: If i am not wrong the FARP does work now "if the aircraft is ON the FARP", but getting there over grass or the huge slope breaks your gear. So basically the system does work, if that same system can be attached to a "truck" for example, or if need be a static but flat object. should not be That hard to do.

Tackle Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 That's for ED to decide. If they can make the FARPs store supplies then why not? But surely you could send a request asking them to make it work? I guess it would be sufficent to make it so that it´s at the same level as the surrounding.
