Hoy a Wags se le ha escapado esto...

¿Te refieres a los WIP o el 2.5.4?

[Silver_Dragon]

Me refiero a que en la versión de desarrollo de Wags aparecen tanto el Mi-24 Hind como el F-16 y los mapas de Siria y el Estrecho de Dover. Los números de versiones son poco interesantes ya que los modulos se desentienden de versiones.

Sí que son buenas noticias. Hay mucha gente esperando al F16. Y el mapa de Siria puede ser muy interesante. No así el de Dover. Para eso ya está el de Normandía. ¿No será el mismo?
¿Qué módulos vuelas?
Un saludo.

Algunas noticias entresacadas de los foros de Eagle Dynamics.

-El Harrier II Plus será una realidad en un futuro no muy lejano. Razbam certifica que esto es así. Están esperando a que DCS implemente el radar completo al Hornet ya que son mecánicas nuevas del corazón de DCS. El Harrier II Plus es la versión más moderna de esta nave con radar A-A y A-T y con capacidad de enfrentamiento AA. Este Harrier será un módulo aparte y habrá que pasar por caja. Para los fans de este avión (entre los que me incluyo) es una confirmación estupenda y pagaremos gustosamente por ese módulo.
-El mapa de Siria sigue avanzando y salen fotografías. Ya empiezan las primeras especulaciones sobre el tamaño del mapa.
-El Hornet tiene problemas con el desplazamiento del TDC (selector de blancos) con los misiles infrarrojos. Se está trabajando en superarlos. Aunque no responde a la realidad, se podrá optar por no tener que presionar el TDC para poder desplazarlo.
-Ya está próxima la posibilidad de lanzar misiles con datalink, es decir con gps. Como dice Wags, del equipo de desarrollo, será el paraíso para los que gusten de meter datos y usar menús en las pantallas del avión:
 
 
 
-El desarrollo del F14 está muy avanzado y cada poco exponen más vídeos de este magnífico avión.
En este vídeo se demuestra eficaz en los enfrentamientos A-A:

Es un avión magnífico y el módulo luce espectacularmente.
Un saludo.

[Beltza]

Alguna cosilla más:
-Vamos a tener animaciones en el personal de tierra, así como en animales, etc. De momento se puede utilizar como mod pero se implementará en el futuro en el juego.

Otra noticia más. Se va a poder usar el TPod en breve en el F18:

A little good-news update to pass along regarding the targeting pod for the Hornet. As many of you are aware, USMC Hornets fly with the AN/AAQ-28 Litening targeting pod when deployed from airfields. This is the same TGP used for our A-10C. As such, we now plan to first introduce the Litening pod to the Hornet prior to the AN/ASQ-228 ATFLIR pod. This will allow a more complete selection of targeting pod options (can also be used for other countries like Spain of course), but also allow us to introduce a targeting pod into the project sooner than we had originally expected.

Con esto, a falta del radar Aire-Tierra, el F18 se convierte en una avión "completo".

Llega calentito de Digital Combat Simulation (DCS): la actualización de esta semana y el ¡¡¡¡nuevo proyecto del F16C!!!!
Dicen que los equipos que ya han terminado su trabajo en el F18 Hornet ahora están en este avión y avanzando a muy buen ritmo por la experiencia acumulada con el F18. Muchos esperaban a este F16 por sus enormes capacidades y versatilidad. Una gran noticia.

As mentioned in our yearly wrap up, one of our biggest projects for this year is the legendary F-16C Fighting Falcon, also called the Viper. In parallel with the Hornet, we already have a sub-team working on the Viper that includes programmers who have completed their Hornet tasks. Much of their focus is currently on the flight model, Flight Control System (FLCS), cockpit and the external model. Using much of what we learned with the Hornet, progress has been good, and is in no way slowing down Hornet completion.

As we pour the concrete, we can start to pass along some of our plans. Please remember they are plans, not timeline promises.

Our Viper will be an F-16C with the Common Configuration Implementation Program (CCIP) upgrade. We feel this to be the most versatile version of the F-16 with capabilities for SEAD, precision attack, close air support, anti-ship, and of course air-to-air. We will be taking great care though to develop a very accurate simulation of the F-16C Block 50 operated by the United States Air Force and Air National Guard circa 2007.
Core systems of our F-16C include:


F-110-GE-129 turbofan engine
AN/APG-68(V)5 multi-mode radar
AN/ALR-56M Radar Warning Receiver
AN/ALQ-131/184 ECM pods
CCIP (Common Configuration Implementation Program) update
ALE-47 countermeasure system
This will be a massive project, so we will separate it into two phases: Phase 1 Early Access release and then Phase 2 Product Sustainment.

Phase 1 Early Access Release:


Color Multifunction Display (CMFD) symbology, Horizontal Situation Display (HSD) format, and Head-up Display (HUD) symbology
Digitally TACAN and Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator (EHSI)
BDU-33, BDU-50LD/HD, Mk-82LDGP, Mk-82AIR, Mk-84LDGP, BLU-109/B, CBU-87 CEM, and CBU-97 SFW unguided bombs
2.75” rockets LAU-68 and LAU-131
Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System (JHMCS)
AIM-9L/M/P/X Sidewinder
AIM-120B/C AMRAAM
M61A1 20mm cannon
Phase 2 Product Sustainment:


Multifunctional Information Distribution System (MIDS)
Link 16 Data Link
AGM-65D/G/H/K Maverick
AGM-88C HARM
AN/ASQ-213 HARM Targeting System (HTS)
Sniper XR Advanced Targeting Pod
GBU-10, GBU-12, GBU-24A/B laser-guided bombs
BRU-57/A Smart Rack
CBU-103 CEM and CBU-105 SFW Inertially Aided Munitions (IAM)
GBU-31/A, GBU-32, and GBU-38/B JDAM
AGM-154/A and /B JSOW
AGM-158/A JASSM
Integration of the JHMCS with the HARM Targeting System (HTS), Link 16, and AIFF
ALE-50 towed decoy
As this project accelerates, we will be providing updates to keep you abreast of our progress to this much awaited addition to DCS World.



DCS: C-101 AvioJet by AvioDev Now on Steam
DCS: C-101 Aviojet will include both the C-101EB and C-101CC models. The C-101EB model is the primary jet trainer and aerobatic display aircraft of the Spanish Air Force, whilst the C-101CC model, with its 7 hard-points and uprated engine, is a versatile light attack aircraft that has seen combat with the Honduras Air Force against drug traffickers. It is also in service with the Jordanian and Chilean air forces. The two models of the C-101 have many similarities that include cockpit layout, core-systems operation, and aerodynamic design. This commonality brings something for everyone to include lead-in jet training, advanced aerobatics, and light attack.
Features of DCS: C-101 include:
C-101EB and C-101CC:
Realistic flight model that represents the actual performance and flight mechanics of the aircraft at a professional level and with absolute accuracy
Highly detailed, six-degrees-of-freedom, clickable cockpit
Complete and accurate aircraft systems implementation (electrical, fuel, hydraulic, pressurization, oxygen, radio, navigation)
Complete circuit breaker simulation with correct failed systems behaviors
TARSYN gyro system replicated with exacting detail
Accurate flight director system
Custom air data simulation (airspeed/altimeter behaviors, etc.)
Pitot system icing implemented as well as many other specific features and effects
Multiplayer two-seater controls
Realistic implementation of all systems (radios, navigation, etc.) on both cockpits, including interaction between front and rear seats
Realistic GPU model
C-101EB:
Realistic smoke system
C-101CC:
Weapons system with air-to-air short-range IR missiles, gun pods, bombs, rockets and Sea Eagle anti-ship missile

DCS World Open Beta Update

Hola a todos.
He estado haciendo las primeras pruebas de esta nueva beta. Las he hecho con el Harrier.
Ahora, en el Hud aparecen los waypoints con un círculo. Esto evita que debas marcarlos como target designado y así, se evitan líos con el TDC, DMT y TPOD.
Ha cambiado el lanzamiento de bombas "tontas" CCIP (Continuos Computer Impact Point). Pero básicamente es lo mismo. Supongo que será más cercano a la realidad.
Han añadido (hay que seleccionarlas en opciones) turbulencias de las estelas. Si te acercas a un avión por su estela, sobre todo si es de turbina) te mete un meneo a tu avión bastante peligroso. Sin embargo, si haces el acercamiento desde más abajo, evitas la turbulencia y no la sufres. Es la manera de hacerlo para repostar a partir de ahora.
También han añadido el BUM típico de la rotura de la velocidad del sonido en la cámara externa: muy chulo.
Para los poseedores de monitores 4K tienen la posibilidad de ver el juego en alta resolución. Dicen que va muy fluido y es espectacular.
Todo lo visto hasta ahora me gusta. Ahora, toca esperar al día 12 para ver lo que nos traen con el Hornet: mejora en la VR, bombas JSOW, etc. Y para finales de mes el TPOD para el F18 .
Un saludo.

Algunas mejoras más de este parche. A destacar las nuevas conversaciones con los ATC de los portaaviones. Ahora dan datos como el rumbo del portaaviones, muy útil para trazar la radial.
