Tacview – Understand what happened during your last flight! (alternative ACMI viewer)
-
Errr… Any of those wonderful features and fixes are for Falcon BMS?
They are general and mostly for other simulators as I understood?sent from my mi5 using Tapatalk

[Shift] + says “Attract viewers´attention to a specific object”
but it seems to be doing nothing - at least for me.
-
It is true that this version does not offer new features related to BMS. However, I am quite sure that you will appreciate most of the fixes, especially the one concerning the online debriefing.
-
I see what you mean KidVicious. I am going to add a “tracking” camera mode in the coming releases which will be like the one in BMS.

Tacview 1.6.2 is now available to everyone!
Download: http://tacview.net/download
This update brings numerous fixes, plus the following improvements:
The instructors are going to like the upgraded remote controls: You can now assign custom keyboard and joystick controls to remotely controls and assist the aircraft of your trainees flying in DCS World, FSX, Prepar3D and X-Plane. Remote controls can also be used to trigger special features (flags) in your DCS World mission.
The DCS World exporter has been improved to fully record and playback network flights when playing back the corresponding track files in DCS World. The next update will bring an improved anti-cheat system which will enable you to playback any network flight as long as you wait enough time before reviewing it in Tacview.
New command line options have been introduced so administrators can silently and remotely install and update Tacview using the command line.

Can it be an earlier version? I have 1.5.0
-
Not sure what you mean by that. Even if older versions of Falcon and the theaters are not supported, they should work without any major problem with Tacview 1.6.2.
You can freely update your Tacview 1.5.0 to the version 1.6.2. Did you encounter any issue related to the update?

Sorry, I was replying to Malc’s request for version 1.5.3.

With Tacview 1.6.3 beta 1, you can now display your own custom textures and orthophoto in Tacview!
http://tacview.net/download/beta/
For this example, you will need the Korea VFR map which can be found here: http://users.skynet.be/bs999158/F4download_navigation.htm
Save or copy the jpeg file as:
C:\ProgramData\Tacview\Data\Terrain\Textures\ONC_kneemap_korea_4096_print.jpg
Download the xml file: http://www.tacview.net/download/CustomTextureList.xml
And save or copy it as:
C:\ProgramData\Tacview\Data\Terrain\Textures\CustomTextureList.xml
Relaunch Tacview, make sure BMS terrain is automatically or manually displayed and you should see the Korean low-level VFR map!
Feel free to edit CustomTextureList.xml to add more BMS maps in Tacview based on the theaters coordinates which can be found in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Tacview (beta)\Data\Xml\Data-Falcon4Theaters.xml
Best enjoyed with the excellent KTO AIP by Windblow: http://www.tacview.net/download/addons/
Special thanks to Olivier Beaumont for his great VFR maps!
Enjoy!

Nice application of the map, i’ll definitely try that.
-
Very cool.
-
should tacview run slower than bms… when i play back file its really laggy even with terrain set to flat
-
If the time in Tacview moving slower than in real-life / BMS: You can playback the flight slower and faster by clicking on the buttons next to the “Play” arrow button in the bottom toolbar.
If Tacview is jerky: make sure the objects trails are not too long. Their length is defined by the slider in the bottom right corner of the screen. Note: In Tacview, 3D performances are the same regardless of the terrain display options selected.
You may also want to make sure that your graphic drivers are up to date. Tacview is using OpenGL and outdated drivers may not be as smooth as the latest ones especially with Intel GPUs.
