RAZBAM_ELMO Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 RAZBAM SIMULATIONS Q2 UPDATE Hello everyone, we at RAZBAM hopes that this finds you all in good health and spirits as we round the next corner in this global pandemic. It has been a hot minute since the last update and all parties everywhere have been hard at work churning out work for you all to enjoy. We will start with our released modules and then work into the WIP of our announced projects leading into Q2. First, I would like to apologize for my absence the last two weeks as I have been in the middle of a posting move. Mid way through April I will be absent again as I will be “traveling” for “work”. Thus, I would like to introduce to you our Assistant Community Manger myHelljumper. myHelljumper has done an excellent job in reporting new and existing bugs in the Mirage forums and will be assisting me in tracking/ reporting bugs for all our existing and future modules. AV8BNA Harrier A lot of new features are coming along for our beloved VTOL platform along with various fixes and improvements. Of note some of the additions are: - Auto Point-Blank Designation - FLIR Hotspot Detector - G4 Pod features like the 2D Yardstick circle, snowplow and TDC action/ no action. These last two are only able to be used by selecting the option in the special tab. If you do not select this option the specials tab, the TDC will perform as it always has but you will not be able to use these new features. - NWS functions which depending on your mode can cycle between MAP DES, TRK DES, SLV DES, HUD DES, TPOD DES and SNWPLW. - WOF UFC Function - JTAC CAS MPCD CAS page reception allowing you to receive 9-line briefs directly to the Cas page rather than entering them in manually. A more detailed list and instructions will follow and be present in the Harrier sub-forums. Mirage 2000-C With our new full-time coder working diligently with our partners in the AdA, I will let him explain the new features he has been implementing. The next update will see some big changes for our Mirage. In the last few months, we mainly worked on the INS system, the PCN panel, the VTH (HUD), the autopilot and the fuel system and panel. These improvements and their full descriptions can be found in the Mirage sub-forum. These improvements include: - Fuel System and Panel - VTH - INS and PCN - Autopilot As this update is changing a lot, be sure to disable all your mods before updating and to activate them only when they are updated by their maker to avoid any problem. These are the main changes that we have done to the Mirage for the next update, as you will see in the changelog there are also a lot of other smaller improvements and fixes. We hope your pilots like it. MiG-19 Farmer Yes, the beloved -19 is getting some more work done, while not as extensive a lot is adjusting the missing or non-functioning key binds. This work is being done by a new support coder. This simple work will help them get up to speed on the SDK and working within DCS code so that we have better support in the long term with existing and future modules. F-15E Strike Eagle Work has partially resumed on the code side of the Mudhen, but the 3D work is in its final stages with our 3D artist making sure every square inch is looked over for inaccuracies and flaws. MiG-23 MLA Flogger With the external 3D model complete, the cockpit is the next on the list with our 3D scans of a real -23 being used as the basis. Work remains on track for our internal timelines. MBB Bo-105 With 2021 looking to be the year of the helicopter, our work on the BO-105 continues to drive forward. Systems complete or near completion include: - Electrical system - Engine cold start - UHF, VHF-FM, VHF-AM, and intercom - Hydraulics system - RWR While functional some aspects still need work such as the flight model, optical sight system and doppler navigation system. Items still requiring major work include the weapons system, automatic yaw control IFF and of course multicrew. We do not have a release date to hand out publicly yet but you know, its soon. Secret Module In darkest days, in blackest nights…… ha, and you guys thought I’d give you a Little hint. You’re funny. 26 9 6 Know and use all the capabilities in your airplane. If you don't, sooner or later, some guy who does use them all will kick your ass. — Dave 'Preacher' Pace, USN. Link to post Share on other sites

Berserk Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 (edited) I'm waiting for the MiG-23 and Bolkov 105 the most. Models looks great. I'm glad you are investing in the future and care about current MiG-19 and Mirage. Good luck RAZBAM! Edited March 31 by Berserk 5 Link to post Share on other sites
Papanowel Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I'm glad to hear that the coding has restarted for the Mudhen. 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites
LtCol_Davenport Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I know that if there were some ETA in your WIP module, you would already have sad it but...is it possible to at least know in witch year do you think they should be ready? You think you will be releasing something in 2021 or probably not? Also, is it possible to have some "order" in witch you think you will release your 3 new modules? As I supposed you wont launch them all together. So we know at least really roughly what to expect. Thanks. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Is that an optional functionality in the real jet as well (how does it work IRL)? 1 Intel i7-4790K @ 4x4GHz + 16 GB DDR3 + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

I assume it's due to the fact some user's HOTAS's TDC don't have the ability to hold button and slew at the same time. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
rkk01 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Was hoping there might have been some South Atlantic news especially after the mouth-watering Tactical Pascale video Probably looking forward to this map as much as any aircraft modules (and with the Mossie inbound, that really is saying something ) 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Fisherman82 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Could the big L on "Little hint" be another clue? A black Little-Bird is what im thinking eventhough I heard its not possible due to classification.. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

IcedVenom Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I wish you would give more love to the MiG-19P... I remember you guys saying that you want to give us a MiG-19S version eventually. I hope that is still on the table. It desperately needs to be brought out of early access, and I don't mean just changing the status from early access to released. Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, it's a hold down and slew functionality like on the Hornet HOTAS? That's not really evident from Elmo's description (to me at least). In that case it makes sense to make this feature optional, like in the Hornet. Thanks!
