Any planes with good TVC flight models out?
Fubar512 replied to MacBradley's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
FC, HF, you're both right, and both verrrry wrong HF, you ever see an episode of "House MD"? Well, all I can say is, thanks for the insight....you were about 33-50% there. The clues were in the Thust_Vector_Control, and in theControlSet001 entries For now, and limited to in-flight TVC (Raptor, Active, MiG & Su OVT models), as opposed to VTOL TV (Harriers and Yaks), this is what I (and the AI ) use : [ControlSet001] THRUST_VECTOR_CONTROL=JOYSTICK01_Y-AXIS [RangedControl008] AxisControl=THRUST_VECTOR_CONTROL MaxValue=1000.000000 MinValue=-1000.000000 DeadZone=0.000000 Saturation=100.000000 ReverseJoystick=FALSE MouseScale=1.000000 UseMouseRate=FALSE ReverseMouse=FALSE LimitValue=TRUE SelfCenterRate=0.000000 KeyControlRate=1.000000 AllowKeyControl=TRUE IncreaseControl=THRUST_VECTOR_UP DecreaseControl=THRUST_VECTOR_DOWN CenterControl= -
By your reasoning, one could argue that Stalin and Hitler likewise kept order during their reigns.

Yes, the F-100D_68 in SF2V does indeed have an RWR display. I use that pit on the F-100F. -
Not completely....and now who needs to study their history? The Aghlabids invaded Sicily, and technically, they were not Moors. Besides, did the Moors invade the Balkans? Did the Moors move north into the Caucasus? Into Greece? Into Crete? Into Poland? No, your peaceful Ottomans did http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ottoman_empire.svg

OH REALLY? Man up and show us -
And prior to that, what do you call their little foray into southern Europe....a peaceful vacation? They were peaceful, alright, only after they were driven out by the Spaniards and Sicilians, and after that little episode known as (I know I'm going to regret mentioning this word, with Dave around ) the inquisition.

Axis-linked TVC does not really work for fixed wing aircraft in this series. Pitch works inversely, which is fine for helo models (since pushing forward on the collective should tilt the back-end of rotor-hub up), but obviously not good for fixed wings, as one winds up with nozzles pushing the nose up, and the control surfaces pitching downward. Interestingly enough, one can have differential nozzles working under this mode (left up, right down, and visa-versa), for roll augmentation at low airspeeds. Yaw-axis mode is not an option. Switch-mapped TVC (as in the case of the Harriers, F-35s, and the YaK-38 & 141), works well for VTOL and STOL operations, but is rather clumsy to use while in a dogfight. The real issue is that this series does not properly emulate fly by wire, which would be necessary to take full advantage of TV nozzles...imagine, for example, pulling back on the stick when one reaches rotation speed; the aircraft's tail would be driven right into the tarmac. IN RL, an FBW system would limit nozzle deflection until the aircraft was safely airborne, and at a controllable airspeed. There's no way to model this at present. -

The canards act in both the pitch, and in the yaw axis. The latter helps slew the nose around, making it a cinch to keep a maneuvering target centered in the reticle. -
What do I think about it? Another must have for that social class known as "the i-Trend Whores". What's next? Toilet accesories? i-Wipes? i-Scrubs? I see Rugg has already identified a possible prototype for the i-Pad II....

Is there a way to get the AI to fire the FIRE_SECONDARY_GUN?
Fubar512 replied to gregoryp's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Look at what TK did with the MiG-17s. He set up both the twin 23s and the single 37 on the primary trigger. [internalGun1] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=37MM_N37D InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN [internalGun2] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=23MM_NR23 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN [internalGun3] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=23MM_NR23 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN Initially, the 37 was set as a secondary gun, but we (the modding community) kept inisisting that he set all 3 on the same trigger, as the AI was not using the 37, by default. Flex guns on multi-crewed AC (such as the aforementioned IL-28 and B-52) are another issue all together, as they're controlled by separate gunners. -

But, does TK's model have HEAT? http://forum.combatace.com/uploads/1264170832/gallery_279_43_7579440.wmv -
