Eagle Dynamics Update – 03 May 2009

 

There are multiple projects ongoing at Eagle and I thought a brief status report may answer a lot of questions:

 

1- DCS: Black Shark Patch. The patch is in-work and we still hope to release it in the next month or two. In the process of fixing bugs and adding new features, we’ve had to go back and re-do some of the multiplayer code. This has led to longer than expected development time.

 

2- DCS: Black Shark Localization. Aside from the Spanish version, all versions have been completed. However, the team is focused on correcting errors introduced when the French version was duplicated. The Spanish version is wrapping up localization and we hope to release it in the next month or two.

 

3- DCS: A-10C Warthog. Parts of the team are already focused on this project and more will be shifted to it once the Black Shark tasks are completed. Progress is good and we plan to release much more information about this come summer time.

 

4- Lock On: Flaming Cliffs. This franchise will see further development in 2009 now that Black Shark is wrapping up. Once details are hammered out, we will be able to provide more information.

Does #4 indicate that 1.13 is indeed in the works then? I can't see anything else being implied, it's not like they're going to make another add on or a sequel or anything, that's what DCS is for.

It would be really nice if somehow DCS Black Shark and Flaming Cliffs coudl interface in multiplayer until the DCS series is more rounded out.

Of course, jet getting a new patch is way better than nothing if it fixes/adds more things than it breaks

[JediMaster 451]

DCS and LOMAC have totally different terrain areas, so the chances of that are nil unless the terrain for one was imported into the other.

Wuld be interesting to know if the Hokum can illuminate a target and the Su can shoot a laser missile on it..

The only issue is getting the laser "coding" to match. While the US and others in the West do it all the time, I don't know if the Russians ever bothered to develop that capability.
