En el foro de ED vi una discusión anoche interesante. En el último video de Wags sobre el f-18 (está comentado en el correspondiente post en el subforo del hornet) decía que el Nimitz incluiría en una tercera fase de "maqueado" las tripulaciones animadas, y comentaba algo de heatblur (no recuerdo ahora la frase exactamente, sorry).

Bueno, pues la discusión a la que me refiero está relacionada y era sobre si las tripulaciones animadas las está haciendo ED en coordinación con Heatblur y, ultimamente, Razbam, o si van a ser tres sistemas completamente distintos.

Lo lógico sería la primera opción, pero sería el primer caso que yo recuerde en el que ED asume como suyo un proyecto o tecnología que viene de una tercera fiesta (BST aparte).

En cuanto al teatro del golfo, bueno todos los teatros en general, en el mismo video hace referencia inequívoca de que el tamaño de los mapas lo está marcando el hardware actual, y que para subir del tamaño que veremos en el Golfo hay que esperar a que los PC den un salto en rendimiento. Deja caer que se podría ampliar el mapa del golfo cuando esto ocurra, pero para mí que eso caerá dentro de las promesas que una vez lanzado nunca se realizarán. Lo bueno es que en un futuro tendremos mapas más grandes, pero lo malo es que hasta que eso llegue, el tamaño de los mapas será el visto en el Golfo y Georgia quedará como el único mapa grande disponible.

 

Sobre la tripulación de cubierta, no es algo nuevo. ED habló ya desde enero de 2014 sobre trabajo sobre animaciones, funcionalidad y demás, así que pudo haber habido movimientos antes incluso que Heatblur y Razbam hubieran movido ficha al respecto. En sí, los pilotos de todos los aviones ya tienen animaciones desde los tiempos de Ka-50. Hacer una tripulación de tierra es simplemente poner una animación conectada a un Script y/o funcionalidad.

En cuanto a tránsitos de 1hr para misión tampoco es eso :D
Por ejemplo (en Falcon según velocidad, mapa y distancias) eran entorno a 10min o 20min de hasta el objetivo. Menos tiempo hasta la FEBA, que en Korea a veces eran de pocos minutos. Una misión podía estar de media entorno a 1 hora (o un poco más con repostaje).
Tampoco nadie pide mapas como los de BMS en extensión, pero quizás como apuntaban antes. Menos detalle y más extensión, de cara a aeronaves con más velocidad y rango operacional.

Del hardware imagino que se referirá a los problemas que han tenido con la gestión de RAM, y el cambio que ha supuesto en requisitos mínimos. Por que por tamaño en disco duro espero que no sea.

En cualquier caso si tenemos que esperar otra iteración del engine de DCS, hasta dentro de diez años nada:whistling: (si todavía sigue todo esto)

Me veo el video y no me leo el contenido, las superficies mojadas (como pistas de aterrizaje) y las salpicaduras en la lista de cosas por hacer.

In the previous live stream, one of the questions was how much customer “wish list” items influence our development plans. As noted, very much! Rain drops is one such example. We have read your strong desire for such an effect and we wanted to make it a priority once 2.5 exited open beta.

While still very much WIP, this little snippet shows of the general tech and animation we are using. We are now tuning the effect for such items as drop size, animation speed, etc.

We plan to bring this effect to all DCS aircraft.

Also on the to-do list will be wet surfaces (airfield surfaces for example) and water spray.

Thanks!
Matt “Wags” Wagner

Ojito que en el newsletter pone esto> " In consideration of what to work on after the Thunderbolt and Me-262..."

Así que viene el P47 pero viene EL Me-262 :o

Que cuando salga sera el rey de los dogfight por su velocidad

Tambien interesante lo que pone del modelo de vuelo y como lo han tenido que resolver:
"... More so than any other warbird though, this has been the biggest challenge due to the lack of data. Following the war, all wind tunnel and needed flight dynamics data was destroyed. To overcome this, we are using Flow Vision to recreate the needed data. This has proven a long and expensive endeavor. ..."

Actualización 2.5.1 (aún no disponible pero siendo testeada "externalmente"para la Beta:

 

DCS World 2.5.1 Update


Version 2.5.1 for DCS World is currently in external testing and includes the new Offline Mode and improved memory management as its primary features.

Now that it has been built, our valued 3rd parties are updating their aircraft to operating in version 2.5.1. Once this is complete, we will first move this version

to the DCS World 2.5.1 Open Beta branch.

 

Until we can release 2.5.1 with improved memory management, we suggest looking at your System Options in DCS World. One setting that has been found

to help out considerably is the Preload Radius setting, cutting that value in half can make a huge difference in load times for multiplayer servers, we suggest

tweaking this setting and find what works best for you.

 

Traducción de este párrafo:

("Hasta que podamos liberar la versión 2.5.1 con una administración de memoria mejorada, le sugerimos que consulte las Opciones del sistema en DCS World.

Una configuración que se ha encontrado para ayudar considerablemente es la configuración del radio de precarga, reducir ese valor a la mitad puede resultar en una

gran diferencia en los tiempos de carga para los servidores de varios jugadores, sugerimos ajustar esta configuración y encontrar lo que funciona mejor para usted).

 

DCS: F/A-18C Hornet Update
Since the last Hornet update, the flight model continues to be refined; Air Combat Maneuvering (ACM) radar modes now auto-lock targets; the ground suspension

model has been refined for landing and taxi behavior; a pilot model has been added to the cockpit view; new skins like the Blue Angels, VMFA-122 and low-vis

skins for VMFA-232 and 323 have been added; external sounds are even more realistic; LEX vapors are more realistic looking; and Inertial Navigation Systems

(INS) ground alignment has been added.

 

Here you can find three Hornet live streams we did of the Hornet over the upcoming Persian Gulf map:

 

Part 1: Hornet over UAE and Oman

Part 2: Hornet over Iran

Part 3: Hornet over the Persian Gulf islands

 

We have also released our 7th Hornet academic video, this one on Hornet waypoint navigation

While this will eventually apply to all aircraft, the Hornet will be one of the first DCS World aircraft to incorporate our new rain drops on canopy effect.

While still very much WIP, this little snippet shows of the general tech and animation we are using.

 

Persian Gulf Map for DCS World


Pre-Purchase the Persian Gulf Map now for $39.99 and save 20%! The price will increase to $49.99 at the end of May 2018.

Pre-purchase video

SA-2 Guideline (S-75 Dvina) Coming to DCS World
Although DCS World includes a large selection of Surface-to-Air Missile (SAM) systems, the iconic SA-2 Guideline (S-75 Dvina) has been absent.

We are now in the final stages of bringing this historic SAM to DCS World as part of a free update.

 

Developed and first deployed by the Soviet Union in 1957, the SA-2 was designed as a medium- to high-altitude anti-aircraft systems using command guidance.

Serving nations throughout the world, the SA-2 became the mode widely deployed SAM in history, with variants produced in China and Iran. It was an SA-2 that led

to the shoot down in Francis Gary Powers in a U-2 spy plane over the Soviet Union in 1960.

A typical SA-2 SAM battery consists of a "Fan Song" missile guidance radar, six two-stage S-75 missiles with launchers, and reload vehicles. A typical SA-2 battery

is laid out with the launchers forming a characteristic "flower" pattern. Multiple batters comprise an SA-2 battalion, with a supporting "Spoon Rest" early warning

radar and command and control vans. Three SA-2 SAM battalions are then organized into a larger SA-2 SAM regiment.

 

The SA-2 is still in service to this day and will provide a valuable element to creating even more realistic DCS World battlefields.

 

DCS World War II Assets Update
There are three primary components that currently make up the DCS World War II, the Normandy 1944 map, the warbirds, and the World War II Assets Pack.

We’d like to update you on each of these:

 

DCS: Normandy 1944 Map

Since the map’s release, there have been several improvements like new period objects (windmills, water towers, farm houses, etc.), better beach lines, corrected mesh

errors, cleaned up textures, and more detail in the England portion of the map. Currently, Urga Media (the developer) is occupied with their Syria map. However, once

the Syria map is complete, we will discuss with them further improvements to the Normandy map like use of speedtrees.

Warbirds

In addition to completing the final touches to the Spitfire (fuel tanks and bombs), our other primary focus has been the P-47D. More so than any other warbird though,

this has been the biggest challenge due to the lack of data. Following the war, all wind tunnel and needed flight dynamics data was destroyed. To overcome this, we

are using Flow Vision to recreate the needed data. This has proven a long and expensive endeavor. However, to create the detailed flight dynamics that DCS requires,

we consider it mandatory.


In consideration of what to work on after the Thunderbolt and Me-262, we asked people to express what they would like to see next, thanks for all the votes, we have

submitted the results to the team and will look at what can be done in the future! You can view the results here:

World War II Assets Pack

 

Many new aircraft and ground units are in development for the DCS World War II Assets Pack and we’ve included images of a few of them in this week’s newsletter.

We plan to release the first big update to the pack in June 2018. At that time, the cost of the pack will increase by $5 given the additional content.

Hola, bicheando por el foro oficial, he encontrado esto en la sección de mods: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=169358 

Lo he probado un poco, y para ser de gratis, está cojonudo. Creo que no machaca nada, es un mod totalmente independiente. Sirve además para quitarse el gusanillo mientras sale la versión de combate del culopollo :whistling:

Un saludo.
