Will there be an RIO Pit?
-
My guess is no, because there is no 2D pit and the only way is change the view X,Y,Z coordinates in pit is Track IR or similar stuff but you cannot make so much to be in RIO pit. Even if you can the max. usable MFD is 4 by the code.
-
Agreed. Though the MFD’s should be the least of the problem. There should not be more then 4 in the F-14 anyway. One horizontal situation/TCS display in the front, with a MFD bellow for the aviator, and in the back, one old style circular radar tube for the AWG-9 with the appropriate display for the modes above. Or did i miss a display?
-
A just a note from me. If ever be considered to model the RIO/WSO besides the pilot mybe to me the most easier way just extend somehow the qty. of MFDs and allow to change XYZ position of the view by keys. Only question how you can allow the code to sit in the same AC to players and how share and calculate the view.
(I have 0 knowledge about programming.)

I can make the pilot position whatever I want. I could make the RIO pit for sure, but the code limit to have a pilot select the back seat of an aircraft with a human in the pilot seat isnt coded.

How to activate the third and fourth screens on the jet? Do you know something about that?
Regards MetalheadI do not understand the question. For data cartridge you can set four MFD pages currently, the code and rest of stuff know what were created long time ago. Only problem that I cannot find the “no HUD view” where in corners of the screen were displayed MFDs als long as not “BLANK” page was set. This is disabled of missing somehow but as I see the code still recognize and accept 4 MFD handling.

really looking good
thank you for all your hard work!!
-
Absolutely beautiful! Many thanks.

Great work Nizmo, the pit is shaping up very well. It looks so good, it reminds me of the pit I saw in in a real F-14 in the early 1990s.

Are you doing the Bombcat? The bombing capable version of the B?
-
Every F-14 built was bomb capable. The “bombcat” was a nickname given to the B upgrade which gave a sparrowhawk HUD and upgraded the B to allow for JDAM carriage ( Mil-1760 databus) This is the only reason the F-14A never carried JDAM but carriedthe full range of dumb bombs, Gator series CBUs, and LGBs from GBU-12 to GBU-24.

Thanks for the info!! Looking forward to fly it on BMS!!

Hello,
Just my little 100 yens…
I never saw a F-14A/B with a twin glasses reflector for the HUD…
I believed, only F-14D had…
Any document about it?
I would really appreciate it.
Cheers,

Yes, there is plenty of documentation about the improved hud glass for the F14B. It is also a combining glass like you see. There are many pictures regarding the F14B cockpit.
Some F14A’s had a single glass hud, but many A models had no traditional hud, but displayed on the window canopy.
In my model, it has the newer combining glass, which is still different from the F14D’s HUD. So it would be a late model F14B-model.
