Air Boss Room In-Action! | DCS World 2.9.6

[@ratulxy]

Finally, I can do a course correction while my friend struggles to land.

[@TimeTravelerTalez]

omg the coolest thing ive seen all year

[@soliitudegaming7275]

Nice video. Worth noting, DCS 2.9.6 is not Open Beta. They don't have open beta anymore. Its just stable.

[@davido1953]

they need to add some people in that empty room

[@rexdanny6464]

Great! But where is the crew?

[@robj144]

I enabled Air Boss before the mission and can walk around inside, but how do you interact with everything? Thanks.

[@XAMBUSH1X]

Might seem a daft question but how do you move around once inside? what do you use? when im in im just static..

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

@@XAMBUSH1X you use the W,A,X,D keys and the mouse to move. Then ctrl-c when you want to click on the controls.

[@XAMBUSH1X]

@@TheFlightSimDeck thanks 👍

[@canconservative8976]

Great module.. hope they implement all the screens. Would also like to send specific ships in the group on a vector. With a return to group button as well. Need to remove the background chatter or be able to turn it down, gets old soon…

[@NOTJustANomad]

I was trying the new features but I couldn't interact with the monitors such as changing the course and the lights on board. How do you do it?

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

@@NOTJustANomad before you launch, go to the mission editor and enable the air boss.

[@louispenn9253]

How do other ships in the group react to the course change?

[@ayeitsgerry_5517]

From what I've seen, they will turn with the ship and go flank speed to catch up to their original positioning in relation to the carrier. I haven't tested heavily, though, so it may vary.

[@NineLineED]

It somewhat works automatically right now, but still needs some tuning.

[@louispenn9253]

Thank you both for checking. Cheers NineLine for the official response

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

Thanks guys for helping out!

[@MISSIRES]

How can i enter the Air Boss Room on a Server? is it on the Role list to select?

[@FoxFourX1]

Like the coffee cup stains on the wood surfaces

[@DCS_World_Japan]

Do the light settings remain even if you leave the slot? If so, we can finally get some realistic CASE III without so many lights on.

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

Yes if you leave, the lights stay.

[@DCS_World_Japan]

@@TheFlightSimDeck Now if only the cursor would appear in VR, and ownship cockpit wouldn't vanish for recording :/

[@LEAD-DISPENSER]

so i just got the F 14 if I'm in your online game an spawn on the carrier will me just heading to the cat an launching f&^k up the ai ground crew as im just going when ever i feel like it because i cant see them ?

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

@@LEAD-DISPENSER it shouldn’t mess them up. If you go to a catapult that has a crew they will guide you in whenever you approach.

[@LEAD-DISPENSER]

@@TheFlightSimDeck i dont have supercarrier dlc so i can't see the crew even if they are there is what i was saying

[@0Ignition0]

I don't understand, what is the function of the airboss in DCS? it looks like a tower cam with a monitor with an F10 map.

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

You have full control over the ship heading and speed, all the lights, LSO stations, you can help guide planes in. It will mostly be useful on multiplayer with comms going. Especially with the light controls.

[@Costas_Ch]

Nothing works for me and I have actives both captain and also from mission editor.

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

@@Costas_Ch are you hitting ALT + C to enter the control mode?

[@BlackHornetSim]

Any idea what the phyiscal bind is called? Ctrl+C doesnt work for me, but I remapped all my carrier binds a while ago to be CTRL+C, Shift+C, etc so its probably already bound to something else and won't work. ​@TheFlightSimDeck

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

@@BlackHornetSim I think it’s Alt-C actually. Can’t remember the mapping at the moment.

[@jnyteshayd8710]

But can we turn on the damn landing lights now?

[@Waz-2000]

They have done a good job of creating the atmosphere, just needs some NPCs working

[@Nick-xe2hu]

Is that chatter of people having conversations something you added or is part of this update?

[@NineLineED]

Its part of the update.

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

@@Nick-xe2hu yep, that’s the sound they provided for the room.

[@szymonkasperczak6705]

For me the whole room doesn't load for some reason. It's just empty space.

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

@@szymonkasperczak6705 mine did that a couple of times. I had to go out and reverify the files.

[@canconservative8976]

Make sure you are using the multi thread launcher

[@meuhey]

no global illumination like in cockpits?

[@Liisi-t3n]

pencils in cup are not moving with ship wake, please fix it or remove these pencils, this really kills realism

[@larryr.6473]

Interior lights should be red or blue at night....😬

[@johntaylor2433]

But I hear lots of talking and chatter and radios and stuff going on and there’s nobody in the room 😂

[@yeahitsme210]

Open Beta?

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

Stable*

[@louispenn9253]

@@yeahitsme210 open beta no longer exists afaik

[@The_Original_Truebrit]

Shocking textures. Another rushed(5 years) project to distract from the drama.

Meh. But at least they are working on something.
