Helmet visor toggle

[ivo]

Hi helmet visor toggle Lalt+Home work or not ?

what is for ? Helmet night vision is implemented ? :joystick:

 

Bye :thumbup:

[Britchot]

As a lover of both the RAZBAM Mirage 2000C and the LS MiG-21, I have to say I would love for this functionality to be across the two. Honestly, I think all DCS aircraft should have the ability to drop a sun visor. 8)

Damn, you are fast as lightning! That did not even take two hours :shocking:

[Britchot]

Got it in there! :)

 

That is awesome! Thank you very much :)

Hi to all and thank for your replies. But there is no a night vision like F4 bms for Dcs?

[myHelljumper]

The 2000C cockpit that we have in DCS is not compatible with NVG so they are not available.

[Rlaxoxo]

It can be modded easily tho

But it should not if you want to fly it realisticaly ;)

There is night vision in other DCS aircraft like the A-10C, but our Mirage is not compatible with night vision IRL so it has no night vision ingame.

Night vision is something you clip to your helmet, the aircraft does not need any compatibility with night vision unless maybe you want uv lighting of which the mirage has ingame.

RL 2000C got updated in early 2000' IIRC, alowing them to have NVGs before that they weren't able to use them because the cockpit lights were not compatible.

 

It has already been discused, I will try to find the topic.

You dont need cockpit lighting to utilize NVG's. Anyway the in game adjustable cockpit lighting is good enough just like it was in real life when old aircraft without nvg certified lighting used Nvg's. Hence why many used one tube with focus for flight and the second tube focused for the close in instrument panels.

You kinda do in terms of cockpit lighting so you're not blinded when using NVG but yea it's not as severe of limitation as "Impossible"

[myHelljumper]

Dcs does not simulate the cockpit lights blinding the NVGs.

the cockpit lights are red and of the same shade so there is minimal interference with NVG and other then the warning panel nothing causes light bloom which is acceptable for NVG qualification on an airframe. So by all standards there should be no reason why we cannot have night vision on the mirage.

There you go, the topic I was talking about.

If you use NVG in the 2000 you would only see a green screen IRL as the cockpit lights emit in a light visible by the NVG. I was wrong in my previous post the mirage 2000C have started using the NVG in 2015 not in the early 2000. If you want to use them there is a mod but be advised that it is not realistic and that's why RAZBAM did not include them.

The upgrade in 2015 was for the -5 and to make the glass cockpit NVG compatible. But the thread does have other interesting notes but most of them are no one really knows and that the french just didnt use them for interceptors.

On what -5 type, for which user?

the one that uses the rafale displays

Lol.

[myHelljumper]

Anyway, it have already been talked about and some peoples that know or have discused with 2000C pilots said it can't have them so let's thrust them and RAZBAM'S implementation :).

Well some -5s use Rafale technology.. but displays, not quite sure about this!

As a matter of fact, IRL, when you want to use NVG on a regular basis on fleet of fighters, it requires extensive modifications to both cockpit and external lighting system.

 

The very last models of NVG may have reduced the down sides of NVG.

But M-2000C isn't really the last kid on the block, and NVG capacity isn't something relevant in its operational life.

 

The NVG doesn't have the same amplification across the whole color spectrum. Red lighting is especially amplified and blinding.

The idea is to focus NVG to "infinity" to look outside, and look below NVG ocular to read instruments. Green/ blue cockpit lighting can be used to avoid blinding.

 

The modification have been studied in early 2000', but it hasn't been completed and pilots trained until 2015 to deploy in AG assignment alongside Mirage 2000D.

This was one of the questions I submitted in the Q&A before the mirage was released

@ 15:20. So NVGs were not going to be a feature. but like Rlaxoxo said you can just mod it in. The only aircraft I can think of at the moment that is getting NVGs is the F-14 by leatherneck.

The A-10C, UH-1H and Gazelle have them too and I'm sure the F/A-18C and the Eurofighter will have them as well.
