I was playing Bomber Crew which is obviously not a simulation but it did get me thinking that a simulation game based on a large world war 2 bomber could be interesting.
>>586067821I really like Bomber Crew, apparently the Space Crew game they made wasn't great though.
I never realized cfrag had such an absolute hateboner for the mission editor.

>>586123810It looks great and anything by GotFriends is 10/10
>>586134226Yeah. It looks gorgeous. Time to get it I guess.
>>586134527Post pics here when you do
>>586135910They have got free trial on the marketplace. For 1 day. I've picked it up and oh boy. That plane is pure joy. I will fly it today for some time and learn it's quirks. Then post some pics and videos.
>>586138819The new cabin physics stuff is impressive
>>586138819I love the way vintage yokes look.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs7-lXlH82IMinecraft has better looking weather than any flight sim, genuinely what's stopping devs from upgrading their cloud models?
>>586147973I just want Asobo to let third parties inject cloud textures, none of the weather addons for MSFS do fucking anything currently. Back in the FSX days you could get RED and/or ActiveSky and it'd look fantastic.
>>586148290That look awful
>>586150201The clouds had more definition than what we have now.
>>586150330I can agree it's missing details but as far as dynamism, coverage or light effects are concerned I find 2024 pretty good.
>>586150827I don't think 2024 is terrible, I just think the clouds are too blobby.
>>586151014Ok, I see what you mean. Are you on ultra ? Your clouds look more cauliflowered than on my game.
>>586151669Yes, are you? At least I thought I was, I'll have to confirm.
I'm over here still loving FS98's minecraft-ass clouds. The thunderstorms are pretty rough though I will admit.
>>586151914I wish I had my old FSX screenshots folder, I barely have anything left, I've no idea what happened to it or if it's still out in the aether somewhere.
>>586151861I'm on high, I think it lowers the blobiness.
>>586147973Roblox stormchasing games have better weather modeling and more realistic convective systems than MSFS.
That's better
>>586153098Now you can land on them.
>>586153202I wish clouds were real
>>586153735Man, have you forgotten the very first rule of flying ? You never touch the clouds.
>>586153735>>586153098Can't beat the real deal
>>586155186Oh wow they really are like Minecraft clouds
should I buy the SU-27/33 for DCS or just download the Project Flanker mods?

>>586155653wtf is that real?
>>586159208Yes lmao.
>>586155428Flaming Cliffs is worth it on sale. You get a lot of mission capability for $35.Purists bitch and moan about these modules but you'll bind everything to your HOTAS in a full-fidelity module anyway and realism is moot point in a sim with healthbar damage models. You'll have fun. The clickable cockpit mods are great for the keybinds you can't remember.I wouldn't buy any of the planes from the pack individually.You might even surprise yourself and enjoy one of them more than the Flanker.
>>586159662yeah but I already have 3 of them (F-15, Mig-29 and SU-25), they do me just fine, but even if they are on sale I dont know if its better downloading the mods or buying a 4th gen aircraft which has the same capability as my Mig-29 (R-77, dumb bombs and rockets), only the 33 looks a bit different because it has carrier ops
>>586160318If you buy the SuperCarrier DLC you get the Su-33 for free and the new Kuznetsov model.
>>586155186>>586155653Look at Mr. Big Shot over here with his fancy graphics! Let me guess, you own a video card? Why don't you show us your checking balance while you're at it, so you can really drive the knife home?

Mental how the Japs don't even get a look in when it comes to aviation since WW2.
Well, that was a good purchase.
>>586180420It's on the list for me
>>586172781Buy one and sit in it
>>586178896they were fully demilitarised which destroyed their aviation industry. they weren't rich enough for a private aviation market to exist either. Germany didn't have this problem because before the war they had a large market for private/commercial aviation so the manufacturers had something to pivot back to. reminder not even the British aviation industry really survived into the 21st century. it's just BAE these days, being mostly subsidised by the US MIC.
>>586184693>not even the British aviation industry really survivedThe American aviation industry didn't, either

>>586262368it's a popular drink
>>586257205>>586261586Cute!
Hind is actually a lot closer to the Mi-8 than I assumed. If I want to fly solo might the Ka-50 be worthwhile? Does the age of the module make it worse?
Hey buddy if you're gonna post your sims here, at least try to bump the thread when it reaches page 10. Thank you darling.
>>586261851>>586270852It gets off on transgressing the rules and shitting up other boards with its degeneracy if its main threads aren't giving it enough attention.
>>586271849I know its not the first time. Its gonna do that for a week and then go away.
>>586270834Oh, I didn't realise that they'd released a separate upgrade to it in 2022, that's good.I'm trialling both now so I'll see how I get on with them. The Hind IS a classic but I'm a bit disappointed it's lacking the nose gun, and the KA-50 does have a bit of the Airwolf about it.
>>586261851>What kind of mental illness makes you want to post off topic stuff here?Gender dysphoria. Every single general in /vg/ is gender dysphoria, except for /simg/.Pic related is all dudes, btw.
>>586261705>>586261851>>586270852>>586271849>>586272492Your seething offtopic metafagging is infinitely more annoying than a few sims images.
>>586270834KA-50 had an update recently (Blackshark 3). So technically it's a younger module than Hind now. It is worthwile to learn it.
>>586270834>>586272424Yeah, think of the Hind module like the Apache module, but shitty; you will be relying on the AI copilot to spot targets in either case. The Ka-50 is designed for a single pilot with a high workload, and you will be relying on the IRL autopilot functionalities to give you some breathing space to find your own targets (you will fail to spot them and die, a lot). The closest bluefor module to the Black Shark is actually the Kiowa, since you have to spot your own targets, and will be relying on the module AI to take over piloting while you have your face in the TV, and dying a lot to targets you failed to spot.
>>586272961t. sims posterit gets the thread bumped i don't care
>>586272961Don't lump me in with that fag, I'm just urging anons to stay vigilant of the HRT Menace.

Did you know it ? I like airplanes. All airplanes. Even British ones.
>>586275050I like all airplanes except British ones, but luckily that means I'm not missing anything good.
>>586275328U wot mate ?
>>586275843Was this designed entirely on beer soaked napkins or something?
Imagine if wired torpedoes existed in World War 2.
>>586273029>>586273228Alrighty, so the shark is more of a scout than an attack copter I'm understanding?I guess I wasn't expecting flying and shooting in the Hind to be quite so similar to the Hip I guess, though I guess the gunner role is more complex and so far I've only done a bit of a fly around, not done the serious training.
>>586277864Well, Hind was directly developed from the Mi-8, so there's that. It's more of a run and gun platform (also troop transport). It's really not designed to hover and destroy targets like Apache or KA-50. I fly most of my time in Hind and I like tactics where you just fly low, full speed, then pop up, spray the enemy with rockets and run away. Somebody here said that Hind is more like a fixed wing, and they were right. Gunners role is pretty basic here - to guide the radio guide rockets and visually spot the targets. Still, if yuo already have MI-8 and want something new, I would go for another heli.
>>586278929Also, KA-50 is a beast. Definietly not a scout, but full blown attack copter. Can run and gun, can hover and destroy enemy (vikhrs) and even can do some A/A combat with Iglas. Absolute beast. Definietly not a scout.
>>586276403More like designed entirely by beer-soaked britbongs.
>>586270834Ka-50 is goated, most capable rotorcraft in the simhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRn9dMBx3vI
A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
>>586279207Agreed. Nothing can dispense guided munitions quite as fast as the Ka-50 can, although I think the Apache edges it out with the wider azimuth and elevation ranges of both the targeting cams and the cannon. Plus the thermal sight IHADSS is basically cheating.
>>586280435This thing looks like it has an active Grindr profile (bottom).
>>586280535Yeah, I think Apache is at the top of the food chain in DCS now. Especially with radar guided missiles when you can just select the targets while hovering, fire the hellfires and then just go home for more. Precision of handling is also great. I often like to just takie the apache and do laps on the taxiways, trying to fly faster while staying within the taxi line boundaries. Absolute joy. I wish helis were this good in MSFS.
>>586283148nice
>>586282967You can really feel the flexing, turbulence, and vortexes in DCS helis. FS24 definitely improved over 2020, but they still kinda feel like plastic toys compared to DCS.
>>586261415
Have you ever played a game called UBOAT?It is a World War 2 submarine game but it also has a crew management side to it.
>>586288164Yes I have, it's good but slightly buggy
>>586287797Why are we selling A400Ms to Italy?
>>586289993they're NATO? is there a reason you wouldn't?

>>586298547>mphholy sovl
>>586295759Could be a quid pro quo. You buy the 346 and they buy the a400.

phew. I switched from windows 10 to Endeavor OS (Arch linux for lazy people). And everything 2d gaming is running perfectly with proton (KSP, RTSs, flatscreen DCS, XP12 etc), but damn setting up VR is really damn exausting. I really took VirtualDesktop for granted.

>>586354479good night /simg/ <33
>>586354620noooo not the tip tanks!
>>586295759>>586310161It could be that as they had the RAF Chief of Staff on a flight on the M-346 before that meeting. I also have heard that, IF they were to buy the M-346, they don't want to buy the actual numbers they need to replace the T2s but they want to buy a smaller tranche of 12/24 and have Deci increase their load of UK pilot training. This would allow the UK to fully restore their training capabilities while relying on a single euro NATO member instead of their current situation where they also have to lean on the Qatari and the yankees. This could be a good opportunity for us as we would sell our M-346s and have an excuse to further expand the school at Deci before competition like the school in Greece (run with M-346s as well) starts being operational. And the A400 is under severe scrutiny due to the issues it had as a project so any new buyer is definetly welcomed by Airbus.I would like to know if they also talked about the future F-35 LTC in Sicily considering we both employ the A/B variants. Personally I think both our countries should focus 100% on the GCAP alone, it needs to succeed but politicians don't seem to realize that.
>>586359460How many A400Ms would you buy? Asking for a friend
>>586362039How is it so far? Honestly looks like a fucking great plane.
>>586363878It's great. They've really went step further with this module. Physics, sounds, vibrations, customization. Even hand starting the propeller. Flying in this plane is pure joy.
>>586364439>hand starting the propellerThat's fun, the Tiger Moth has a similar procedure but you have to turn it X number of times and it's easy to cock up.
IL-2 Korea is on sale for a meagre £53.24!
>>5863637291 for everyday use, 1 for Sunday church commute, and 1 for spare parts. Jokes aside we need to replace our C-130Js so it could be anything from 10 to 20 but I have no idea. The huehues have also offered their C-390s which are neat and Brazil is also a country that was interested in purchasing M-346s. >C-390s for M-346s>A400M for M-346s>P1 for M-346s I just don't want the 346 winning the US navy bid. IMHO we should push hard for the UK and Japan, but the execs at Leonardo were beyond pissed at the UK govt due to the recent fuckery at Yeovil and have said some harsh things.
>>586367707Why do you need C-390s as well as A400Ms?
>>586368375I worded it poorly, they are just being evaluated as a potential replacement for the C-130Js. it's going to be one of them. the A400 imho makes more sense since the 390 is small and we already have a tactical airlifter with the C-27J

Asobo is afraid for you to know what this looks like.
>>586443420Quite a crater, NTSB ain't gonna get much outta that. Interestingly FS98 has crash physics where pieces can break off some of the planes. One feature the newer flight sims don't have.
>>586408091>>586443420Doesn't look like anything big got the time to detach and get flung at a house, lucky for everyone around. It even hit soft soil and a water pipe for maximum damage control. I am NOT listening to that atc recording
>>586448350>I am NOT listening to that atc recordingIt's not that bad, quit being a pussy.
>>586448350Is not as scary as some anons sold it desu. I actually have felt more sadness when the pilots resignation or regret tone can be heard, like you know they felt they could do more in their last moments or the ones where they knew they messed up and say sorry. Now that was hard. This time? yeah is sad but in 2026 I grew jaded of women screeching overall
Submarines are cool but I would never want to be inside of one.
>>586454025Same but with kids
Managed to get the Yak-52 XP11 by RuSky working on Xplane 12. fixing airfoil errors and folowing the xplane 11 values then migrating them to 12 ones. There are some things I cannot fix because some scripts and configs are inside encripted files. So its flyable now, but walk mode is broken, rolls are awkard, it stalls way easier and its not like the xp11 or DCS one. I'm going to try email the devs to see if they can help me with that. But I'm happy with the result so far.
>>586462425
bump
>>586462425Neat
I don't really know what I'm doing with flight sims but does anyone have tips or videos on combat for new people for IL-2? Specifically with using rudders etc. I think I have the gist of it with WWI planes from the Flying Circus dlcs but have no idea with ww2 or korea
>>586423134>>586408928>>586408091God damn... Icing is no fucking joke
>>586470838
>>586471237Doubt it was icing alone, lawn darting right in like that. Icing usually causes stalls or flat spins. Probably some kind of control failure or just plain pilot fuckup added on.
>>586443420Oh that white line on the asphalt the wing

>>586473790They were flying through -40 C air, and then went right through an updraft of warm rain. The plane probably got flash frozen into an icicle.
>>586488592>>586497016What heli is that?
>>586497694AW139
>>586462531Ok, email sent. Hope they dont tell me to piss off because I'm basically asking for source code. But fuck it. Its been 2 years since they announced they would probably update it to XP12. And I just need to fix the roll, stall behaviour and camera issues on the walkaround mode.
>>586498696Since when was there one for MSFS?
>>586498824it's xplane
>>586498936346lad, i-is that you?>AgustaWestland are British/Italian>being so racist you only simulate Italian aircraftI take my hat off to you
>>586499080It's-a-me! And I am racist, but not towards planes. The fact that I fly mostly italian/european planes is just a coincidence...
>>586498936Holy shit, why does it look so good? what addons and Ortho do you use?
>>586499465It's a nice heli desu>>586499547Yeah I can't really tell his X Plane and MSFS apart at higher altitudes on first glance, the trees let it down but it looks really good apart from that.
>>586499547>AutoOrtho (Bing maps)>FlyWithLua script HazeAdjust>Blufx (I don't remember installing it)>Reshade (mostly just to sharpen)>LiveTrafficAlmost every setting set to the max beside SSAO and density of object. Vegetation density to minimum.>>586499684It is, I'll definetly purchase it down the line. The force trim and AP are nice since I have a stiff as hell Warthog stick/throttle and trying to fly the Huey in DCS made my wrist ache in pain. plus no pedals so when I land I have to constantly jump between the antenna slider that I use for Yaw and the throttle
>>586500494>Vegetation density to minimumWhat does it look like at max?
I suddenly feel the urge to create a mod that adds this shit in MSFS.
>>586503418I wonder if AI MSFS mods are a thing yet, I've seen some ridiculous mods come out of it so far, like GTA SA in Skyrim.
>>586499465That terrain looks crisp.
>>586507478Nice. Embraer is underrated
Underrated plane of the day : the Fokker F.XX
>>586518071What a fokker
>>586502974I can't take a newer screenshot because setting them to max crashes xpain>>586504753thanks, what plane is that? it looks cool.
>>586518538PZL-104 Wilga
>>586518956nice
>>586519135Is he okay?
>>586519752yeah they do that when they're happy
>>586528941There is no plane in that image
>>586529247are you a radar, anon?
with enough compression you can trick your grampa
>>586535524
Yes, yes, well done, A-10. Well done, A-10. HOWEVER
>>586537698Five seconds of brrrrt
>>586538076Hahahahah
couldn't figure out how to dim the dash in this thing. manual told me it's in a fuckin menu. you have to use the lcd to turn off the lights. felt like this one could've just been a switch, lockheed>muh tax dollars
There's something ineffable about the look of this thing. Something extremely unlike previous soviet helicopters
>>586518956So are you a Wilgger?
>>586541203Its like a prehistoric monster coming back for a vengeance.
I miss the cold war bros. They were actually making crazy stuff back then. Now we only got aliexpress F-35s and some other dogshit. F-22 never shot down anything but a fucking balloon. Its all gay. Ukraine had a couple cool fights and now its just Mig-31s and Su-57s lobbing missiles from inside russia. The only other notable air battle was two flavor of jeets going at it but regular jeets have no fucking awacs and are dogshit at everything they do.
>>586559179That is just the logical conclusion of general warfare. Dogfights and melee/direct conflicts is not what you want as a General. The safer your troops are the better. That's why we have drones/FABs/Ridiculously high range fire and 5get missiles and the rule of whoever shoots first wins. Space warfare will be that x10 btw.
>>586408928>>586471237>>586473790As you can see in the freeze-frame, the elevons were likely ripped away from the tail. The white parked car survived. That pickup truck driver is lucky as hell too.
>>586559179We should solve international conflicts for a Warfare Olympics. Just have a bunch of events 1v1 deathmatch style for territory instead of this hypergay modern bullshit.Just make Air Quake real.

THIS IS FUCKING TORTUREFARMING IN MY TRUCK SIMULATOR?It's so awful, I even went into the files to buff the fuck out the tractor and tires and it still controls like asswho the hell thought the playerbase wanted this? and then you make it such an absurdly high number? theres no godamn way they weren't aware how much this sucks
>>586576109i did itits very late, but I finished it. This map went fro ma soft 7 to a hard 3.
bump, 50 into three right
>>586500494I have XmapEnchancer. Should I switch to AutoOrtho?
early morning sorties
>>586600623>XmapEnchancerI never heard of it but the more I read about it it seems a better version of authoortho since it has google maps. If you don't have any issues I wouldn't switch. Especially when authoortho is a mess to install. Does it look good?
>>586600623Also remember that the screenshots I post here are extremely cherrypicked. Most of the time the scenery is meh.
>>586601315nice
>>586559179we're still making crazy shit, it just hasn't had 40+ years to leak or be declassified yet
>>586561392>Space warfare will be that x10 btw.we already have space warfare. there's guys in military bases in the US, Russia and China shooting lasers at each other in space right now. look up satellite warfare. that's basically what the "space force" deals with, satellite warfare. the satellites even have thrusters and they make maneuvers to block lasers and turn away from dazzlers and shit. it's basically just the slowest dogfighting of all time. seriously, look into it, it's interesting as fuckthe future of warfare is all invisible, it's all about controlling the EM spectrum, and that starts with the satellites
>>586601648Its very plug and play but the fact they charge a suscription for better resolution pisses me off because they are not the map providers. I have a tolerance for paypigery if its well done aircraft or even airports or cities, but I draw the line at not being able to have better maps because the devs want to jew me that hard.
Who the hell is wilga?
>>586601315Not sure what US and RAF forces are doing in Finland, odd start to the Career. I assuming might be like a substitute for the Channel, I don't know if the map was available when the campaign was put together
>>586561392>>586605748https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0UfFNpOsxwCurrent anti-sat space warfare will evolve into the kind of shit you read about on Atomic Rockets, or see in the Expanse or CoaDE.
>>586605890>suscriptionoh, then switch the fuck out of it. I hate anything subscription.
I still can't fucking land this thing.
Why don't birds have canards?
Underrated plane of the day : the M-346
is it worth buying a rudder pedal or making one DIY? I found one on the internet from SilenceDIY (https://silencediy.com/rudder-pedals-guide) but it doesnt look that easy, I also asked Claude to design one for me, its "easier" than the other one but the con side is that there isnt anything to try on before building it
>>586621452Yes, twist rudders are shit. The issue is rudder pedals are not cheap, and getting damping adds to the cost.
>>586621607yeah, the only ones availables in my country are from saitek and thrustmaster, otherwise I would have to import from the US/Europe. At least the DIY version is about 1/4 of the price
>>586620526Looks like something Yakovlev would make.
>>586620526based>>586623563NOT based
>>586622862Saitek are terrible do not get anything by them
>>586623751I honestly wish I still had my saited x56 compared to my current warthog.
>SimWorks Studios making a Dash 8 Q100>Miltech making a Q200 and Q300>Majestic Software are making a Q400 (never)
>>586617330The easiest way is to pretend it's a big slow prop plane.
>>586617330Don't pump the stick and don't stir the pot, also don't crash.
>>586623751my x56 was the only one I could buy that wasnt like those cheap ones where the throttle was "glued" to the stick, before that I had the fucking cyborg fly5
>>586617330Get within 2 meters of the landing area and lower the collective at once while closing your eyes.
>>586626524>cyborg fly5That was such a fucking shit joystick it makes me angry thinking about it, everything was bad. My experience with Saitek/Madcatz has been awful, maybe the X56 was an exception, I haven't tried it.
>>586621452twist rudder is fine
>>586628623kill this man
>>586628690they hated him because he told the truth
>>586628845they hated him because he was a retard
>>586628623I hate it. I have to turn off p factor, it makes takeoff too annoying with my peasant twist rudder. Harder than real life. I don't really want pedals though, too much shit in my house already. Maybe I should get one of those flight sim gamepads or something.
>>586629026Those gamepads wouldn't be any better than normal controller triggers for rudders
>>586629026one thing i really like about the t16000 is that the throttle has these pedals on the back that make for good rudders, which is extra useful because the twist axis on the t16000 stick is notorious for breaking because it's poorly manufactured garbage
>>586629313You don't think so? It seems like it would be much better since they are connected but idk. Maybe I should try flying with an xbox controller first kek.
Uncommon (and unasked) opinion : twist rudder stick is the most realistic option for the F1 secondary radar control stick.
>>586629583The Honeycomb one has triggery type things for the rudder
>>586629583>>586630309I'm not sure what you'd call them, trigger sliders? Might be better, probably the same.
>>586628623no it isnt, the only reason I want to buy a pedal is because I have to put a 30-50% deadzone since the sensor is all fucked up, and this happened on both of my sticks
Big fan of this one
>>586632478>>586629556Lmao, I may hate using the twist rudder but my Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Pro still works just fine 30 years later.
>>586626564>>586626047>>586625674I think it's just because the warthog stick is stiff as fuck and I have no rudder. Back in the day with my saitek twist stick I had no issued zipping around in the dcs hueyBut with the AW139 I still don't understand if I should fly the landing with zero autopilot or not, in IRL videos it seems they don't, but the barebone manual of the module says it should
>>586632947>Microshit productsi'd rather castrate myself than give any money to that evil conglomerate
>>586632493Looks like a crocodile
>>586633243Flying heli with no pedals is masochism. Even paddles on the thrustmaster t16000 are way better than twist for helis.
>>586633624>Flying heli with no pedals is masochism.true that
>>586633243Kek imagine trying to open a door that opens forward while flying
>>586636673That'll buy you a one way ticket to the shadow realm. Doors are serious business.
>>586617330Collective down, 100%.
Jet bridge control sim when?
Looks like you'll be able to customise the GotFriends Super Cub a lot.>Got Friends says it plans “literally hundreds” of customization options for the aircraft
>>586651435https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yucz1wX4yjwIndustry gets all the cool niche sims while Microsoft feeds you slop
>>586656449kek how did you even find that?
>>586656449that's because industry sims are training tools, not games for autists. easier to make a profit licensing these things to massive corporate entities, nobody is selling this shit to gamers and making money off it (unfortunately)
Going to bed, I unironically dream about planes quite a bit.
>>586659857Sleep high
>>586659857Try not to dream about the wings and control surfaces suddenly icing over that Angel's 30. There would be pretty much nothing you could do in that situation.
I picked up some naval sim games over the last few days:UBOATDestroyer: The U-Boat HunterWar on the SeaGoing to try War on the Sea first.
>>586134226beautiful
Hate Python so much I'm vibecoding an AutoOrtho in Golang (I work with it irl and Rust is for faggots),I'll let you guys know if it worked or not. AutoOrtho was already a webService so idk why the frontend was not a website. i guess at the time it was convenient. But damn the dependency hell of python never stopped being trash specially on linux where people are not really fan of executables.
>>586679671Last time I tried AutoOrtho it was hugely bad. If you are talking about the X-Plane 11 one. If I remember correctly, it wrote 250,000 files as empty templates or something insanely stupid like that. And it was incredibly heavy.I don't think there's any need to do this.
>>586684249Adding: This was 2-3 years ago. It might be different now.
>bought P-38J in IL-2>"actually, you need battle of bodenplatte to play it"This better be worth it
>>586686694>85% offcheap at leastThe late war stuff like the 262 and Tempest is nice too. I've never been able to wrangle the P-47 though
>>586688127Jug is a way of life. Even better in DCS with all of the cooling systems to manage. Ground attack feels like flying a tank.
>>586689063I still need to learn the knack for it. The thing seems to go into an accelerated stall a lot earlier than the other aircraft. Found this the case in both IL-2 and DCS.I know its a boom and zoom fighter but it feels like even more gentle manoeuvres tend to just drop the wing and i go into a spin. Is it too much fuel fucking with the centre of gravity or something? I tend to take 70-80%
>>586701987wtf are these posts
