Ok for those lazy guys who wants to build carrier missions, you just can type the following into google search. In this example, I have changed the wind speed to 6m/s (it was 6 knots), because in the mission editor you set it in m/s..., wind direction (140) is in "to" direction as it has to be...

Yes you are right but it's strange that you have to set the "to" direction in DCS... Maybe a mistake... But antoher point is, you can't set the same wind speed for 10m altitude as for 500m altitude... Maybe because it's unrealstic??? You also can not set a different heading for 10 and 500m...

An airplane can move sideway relativ to the ground by the drag of the wind, and this movement has to fit the sideway movement of the runway :-) I'm a bit happy now... First, I thought this can not be so complicate and I'm stupit because it looks so easy, but if you think about it it's not so...

Hello I know it's a misc topic between this and the math forum, but I want to create a dcs carrier mission and have some special questions so I decided to ask it here... The angle between an aircraft carriers course and the flight deck is -9° (as far as i know). Let's say wind speed is 6 knots...

Are there any news regarding the "vr support for orbiter" topic? Is there any change to get Orbiter working in VorpX? I found this games which seems to be funny:

Hello Enjo, nice to see this MFD still working faster :tiphat: Maybe an Idea how to increase fps rate by losing resolution: You could merge 3*3 or 6*6,..., pixels together (using just one api call for the "center pixel") , so you need less api calls to get the altitude points of the...

Hi, I did it and I've bought a new board and processor etc. to upgrate my PC. Now I have a strange behavior: With the on board graphic card, the pc has rebooted always in a loop. After disconnecting the SATA controller, I was able to enter the bios. When I pushed my graphic card onto...

With my 950, I first had trouble, bad FPS, terrible graphic... But then then I activated the "delayed shading" setting, and global cockpit illumination, and everything was looking good but with bad FPS. Then I set "Textures" to low and FPS where ok. The only problem was that in the A-10C...

:rofl: And are this values good? How can I optimize them? Just by "Try and error"? I gues they are depending on the gravity force, the maximum hover engine acceleration and on the maximum angular acceleration of the ship... (= the ability to change the vertical acceleration) but I don't know...

I've got this method in my code to get the reqired vertical acceleration for landing for my baseland autopilot, but I can't remember what k1 and k2 are...? Are this values good? The code is working well, but I'm not sure how i came to this values and this formular... :-( I hope it's possible to...

Hello, today I did a quick IQ test and I had a question: In one image, there was a wall with a hole with a pattern like this: *= = - = = = - - = = = *= = - - = = = = - - = = *= - - - = = ... And now the question was, how many bricks are necessary to close the wall... My first (and right for...

here is the awesome, official trailer :hailprobe::

Ha that depents how you define "from Earth's perspective". If you follow the spaceship from earth with a telescope, you will see the "arrival" 8.74 years after the start right? But if then the spaceship travels back with c as soon as it has arrived at alpha, will you see the spaceship twice...

Ok I understand you but I don't know if I can belive this but maybe you are right.... Let's say Alpha Centauri is 4 light years away. If I travel with 0.1c, I need 80 years to get to alpha and back right? I gues at 10% c, we can neglect relativistic effects, so the time passed at earth is...

Hello I have had some thoughts and a resulting question regarding hypothetical interstellar traveling... Assumed I want to travel to Alpha Centauri and back to Earth, what is the best speed to chose, if I can travel anything between 0 and c under the condition, that I want to be back on Earth...

Sounds interesting enogh to me, so I bought it :) thank you all!

Hello, "Children of a Dead Earth" seems to be a "realistic space ship war" simulation... Means with real physic and so... You can build you own ships similar to kerbal... Did somebody tried it?
