VR support.
Period.
that would result in very poor modelization
the only right way to do it is retro engineering of em charts and accel charts
Those charts aren’t that easy to get I presume…
From my opinion, every other aircraft can be made to fly realistically close to the real one even if using the F-16’s flight model and modifying it accordingly, because after all what could we need to improve their behavior?
1. Realistic moments of inertia values (at least for Ixx, Iyy and Izz), taken either from a form of calculus/calculation or from experimental data;
2. Realistic aero data;
3. Realistic propulsion data.
If these are available, then they can be used into the modified F-16 OFM/AFM flight model data tables and there’s nothing more needed to provide more realism.
As it seems, the F-16’s AFM/OFM flight model is robust enough to carry a wide range of what’s needed for a good simulation and might be able to support even further improvements (this is not up to me though), so it doesn’t seem like every aircraft would need an individual flight model from scratch. The AFM 2 tested on the A-10 (if I’m not wrong), on the other hand, could be another interesting model for flight simulation.Speaking of witch…, I’ll try to get better aero data for the F-18C (Hornet) and E (Super Hornet) also, as I already have engine data chart for the F-404, as discussed earlier (so the C model would promise the most)!
Cheers, good day!
I really wonder how you manage to do all this work, gathering data should be a pain.
Is there a chance to “compute” them with x-plane and its engine to simulate aerodynamism ? (SORRY if this question is stupid, don’t jump down my throat guys).
could you please stop spreading this urban legend
the flight model in bms is able to simulate any aicraft. not only F16.
even a WW2 plane can be simulated with the nfbw module…
That was what ppl told me, I don’t know.
Very kind demand. Is there something I should know here or am I just terribly unlucky ?
Hello,
Sorry I reacted too far as well, I hope there is no bad feeling between us.
Actually, I am talking about both planes, Hornet and Super Hornet. Don’t get me wrong : I love to flight them but their performance isn’t realistic. SuperHornet have some issue with instruments as well but nothing you can’t live with. Issue is this plane won’t be allowed on Falcon Online (for example) because it is too OP.
Right now, F16 (of course) and Mirage 2000 are very good (could even say “perfect” for F16), I realise it is very complicated to get something realistic when you only use F16 flight model as license allows, I was just asking if something could be done to make F18 serie more realistic.
I’m pretty sure they will btw, maybe I’m a bit too impatient.
Regards.
PS : Sorry for kiddish reaction, wasn’t really mature from me.
Join Date Sep 2015 and already trying to piss some one off.
Its easy to be a critique with out showing proof, but don’t bother cause we know its not perfect but still a lot better then it was.
Good Day Sir.
I think you are replying to me. So my join date is relevant ? Seriously ?
Atm, F18 is completely OP, period. Flight model is not realistic at all, you can almost turn 180° without moving position, etc.
What, am I trolling ? I am just posting facts, if you think F18 is realistic, it is your problem but 1) my join date have nothing to do with this and 2) I am just asking for a realistic flight model for a plane I think should get some love.
Good day sir.
Any chance this kind of work would fix the broken F-18 flight model if done ? Asking because flying F-18 right now is a pure waste of time, completely OP…
Working perfectly, even able to launch 2 instances on 2 different tcp ports, 1 screen for icp, the other is my ded, perfect.
By far the best option I’ve seen to export my ded, icp…maybe allow us to use several screens on one instance so I don’t have to trick it but so far so good.
Can you please add a “version compatibility” to the list ?
Nothing works for me, maybe I’m missing something.
Windows 10 x64 not compatible ?
I don’t even have the configuration window, just 2 empty MFDs are spawning and nothing else.
Any documentation somewhere ?
[EDIT] Ok, editing my own reply to let ppl know I managed to get it working on Windows 10 x64, actually it was even working from the begining but didn’t know the options are called from the icon in bottom right corner (near time). Now I must find how to export MFDs but DED or any other gauge is working perfectly.
