Dino's Cat is out!!

Just a gentle bump of my earlier question:

does anyone know if the HSI in the MFD has a heading bug you can move, e.g. to set and change the heading also on the AP? I can get the HSI up on the MFD but can't see what control or click spot moves the heading bug - if there is one. The analogue HSI from the default Beechcraft does not seem to have a working clickspot for its heading bug.

Glad to help. Dino moved them up during beta, may need to move them up some more if possible.
 
Hi guys,

I just got Dino's new F14D, and have tested it with my new Afterburners. There seems to be a few problems with it.

I'll work on it this weekend to clean it up, and make it throttle controlled. It will be released as a new package.

Hi,

Having trouble finding the "KO_F16_FX" gauge to use the iris AB effect.
It's not part of the F16 USVIPER package ???

Could someone point me in the right direction please.

Thanks

I've not had any problems using the shift+e or the 2,3,4, keyboard commands on any of the releases (total of 7 for me). You write a different number sequence. Perhaps that is the problem?

If you are doing ILS, you use the left MFD to select ILS. Yes the Heading/CRS panel has been moved up. See drawing and labeling photos.

"Lastly, anyone manage to do a manual engine start or is everyone using Ctrl + E?"
Yes, but after I shut down the engines and all avionics.

RD---
Very interesting, hope it works.
 
Dino, I finally got to fly your new cat and I think it is a masterpiece. Beautiful on the outside and inside; one really feels like sitting in the cockpit of a military aircraft. Thanks so much for all your hard work!

Time for the "thank you´s" again.

First of my list to thank is EgoR64 for his mission with the carrier and the f-14. It is so much fun to just sit and watch the tomcats take off and land again. Thank you very much. :applause:

Next thank you goes to Yago9 for posting detailed information of how to edit the afterburner. Thank you very much :applause:

And the last one goes to Peter12213 for the information about the hud exchange. It do looks good. Thank you very much. :applause:

I am very happy to see that kind of information sharing, my opinion is that this is one of the main purposes of a board like this.

Hi WilyCoyote

No...there's something wrong here. Sometimes they work perfectly, most of the time erraticly. Have no idea why, never happened before, and only with this model. Some peculiarity with my pc, perhaps. Refuelling probe works from the cockpit...
Wonder if it depends on speed and angle of view.
Thanks, best regards

Oh man that's beautiful, if I ever get a new copy of FSX (some boy-scout jacked it I think) I will surely be glued to this cat! Heck, I'm downloading it now, in advance!!

Beaufighter, on one of my PC's I had the same problem with the exit commands on FS2004. I changed the keystrokes to use the DELETE key instead of the default key. Worked okay after that.

I don't know if it was a keyboard issue or what, but it didn't like using the default combos.

Same here, the exits are not reacting properly to the input.
Most of the time, only the canopy reacts, no matter what number I choose.
Sometimes it works correctly though.
This happens only with the Tomcat. ALL the other multi-exit planes in my hangar (FS9 or FSX format) do work properly.
 
Unfortunately, I too have the issue with exit commands not functioning properly. The only thing that will respond for me is the canopy. Various exit keyboard commands all open the canopy. I cannot get any other exit animation to function with the exception of the refueling probe, using the switch only inside the cockpit.

Something else that appears to be a bug is that the ejection seat 'spikes' at the top (for lack of a better descriptor) appear to poke through the canopy.

Exactly what I have here Daube...your words become mine....

Odie, changing to delete may affect all other planes? And since I'm not the only one, going to keep it this way
