firmek Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Maybe we should bring in a System that if you crash your plane you would have to rebuy the module or something for people to get a fear of doing things wrong :megalol: Everything is easy in a simulator because there are no consequences. It's not such a bad idea. It would be an interesting experience to have for instance a few MP servers where if your virtual pilot dies, you have to pay some set ammount - for instance 20 EUR. The money could go for some noble purpose instead of increasing EDs margin. On the discussion how difficult landing Harrier will be. We all have to wait (probably 3 weeks ) to find out. The gut feeling tells me that probably not as much difficult as landing Spit, Huey or Hip ;) F/A-18, F-16, F-14, M-2000C, A-10C, AV-8B, AJS-37 Viggen, F-5E-3, F-86F, MiG-21bis, MiG-15bis, L-39 Albatros, C-101 Aviojet, P-51D, Spitfire LF Mk.

Sent from my SM-G955F using TapatalkYes, but according to the Pocket Guide the mode for that *(DLS?)* will come at a later date, before release. EDIT looked it up again, LOFT is a submode to AUTO. Still if I remember correct, it will not be available in Early Access... but let's see what Razbam comes up with in a few weeks.

I really enjoy using it with the Harrier in BMS (I know it's not really accurate but it's all I've got until this comes out) Unfortunately I fear it'll be useless in multiplayer as there's no way to plan a flight beforehand.

Was a quick read... Anyway TOO is planned for later, also. ;) Shagrat - Flying Sims since 1984 - Win 10 | i5 10600K@4.1GHz | 64GB | GeForce RTX 3090 - Asus VG34VQL1B | TrackIR5 | Simshaker & Jetseat | VPForce Rhino Base & VIRPIL T50 CM2 Stick on 200mm curved extension | VIRPIL T50 CM2 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Plus/Apache64 Grip | MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals | WW Top Gun MIP | a hand made AHCP | 2x Elgato StreamDeck (Buttons galore) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sim Flyer Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Yes end of the month, my best guess would be november 29 or 30, i know some people are speculating that it will be november 24 as that is the last friday of the month but i do not believe it will be november 24.

98abaile Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Harrier vid by thedevildoggamer: Should it be possible to start without the APU. Also is that starting time accurate? Seems like it started up too quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitormouraa Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 (edited) No, you need the GTS/APU to start the engine. I'm not sure about this but I think you can also use GPU just like the F-5E.

DefaultFace Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 The engine start switch does use the "APU". From what I understand from the NATOPs manual the APU switch just operates the GTS (Gas Turbine Starter) in APU mode, ie couples it to a generator to provide electrical power for the aircraft. If you just hit the engine start switch, it uses the GTS to start the engine instead. 9./JG27 "If you can't hit anything, it's because you suck. If you get shot down, it's because you suck. You and me, we know we suck, and that makes it ok." - Worst person in all of DCS "In the end, which will never come, we will all be satisifed... we must fight them on forum, we will fight them on reddit..." - Dunravin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitormouraa Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Yes, correct. Without the generator, it's just a gas turbine starter (Like the Viggen's GTS) used to start the main engine. If the GTS is driving the generator, it will be an APU, and it will no longer start the main engine.

sze5003 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Preparing myself for low level flight and cas missions, I started learning the viggen. Although I feel like it's a lazy pilot's plane haha. Trying to get used to low speed maneuvers in the av8 the viggen is a nice one for that. Whenever I'm flying it I feel like a helicopter pilot because I'm always so low.

DZShizzam Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Im very worried about HUD and his visibility. Its again very badly visible like in the Mirage :( I hope this will be fixed when Harrier arrives in DCS. I don't think that this is a game issue. The issue is that they're in a sunny desert with sunlight going directly into the HUD glass. IRL the HUD projection is going to be very difficult to view under such circumstances, and this is demonstrated in game. Try lowering your helmet's shaded visor, and that will help, or adjust graphics settings to turn down gamma should help as well. Try flying a mission just after dark and you'll see what I mean, the HUD will be much more visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlowTorch Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Any idea why the rkt pipper seams so off? I saw a few comments about it on youtube with no reply. In the video, he says the nozzles are at 45 degrees when firing. I'm not an expert, but having the nozzles at any setting other than 0 sound like a big "no", it would make the hud compute wind in a wrong way. Anyone with real knowledge knows about the correct procedures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
