[@HarmanMotorWorks]

Well done! I've always thought the effects in DCS were way too 'sterile' especially the ground-handling and landing aspects. This might make me actually want to play DCS properly now 😅

will DCRealistic pass integerity check for multiplayer?

[@NyteStalker89]

My feeling is no. I think it injects things into the game to make this work

[@rkApps-shop]

@@NyteStalker89It doesn't inject or alter any files in the game, therefore there should be no issues with IC.

[@rkApps-shop]

From our beta team user: "I’ve Been using it in MP and it change nothing in DCS core"

[@NyteStalker89]

@@rkApps-shop I’m curious as to how this works without injecting anything, be it DLL or lua or if it purely effects just clients local files. Addressing IC, lots of, if not most mp servers have mod aircraft’s or other files on them, so they have IC OFF or disable the requirement of a pure client. All that said, this looks like a fascinating addition

[@HvyMetal4Ever]

Will all these extra nuances transfer down to a 3 axis sim pit?

[@Guido1212]

Pretty cool, but regarding the intake of breath on the high G turns the breath will be taken in before the pull (que the well askshully mems). Of course the game can't know that a roll will then be followed by a pull so the initial big breath sound pretty much has to start when the G onset starts. Nice mod though.

[@mikethrower1]

The over g sound is horrible I think. A few other sounds are wrong like the AB sound, you don’t hear it….you feel it.

[@DJSean00]

Love the work done on this but for some reason having the SIMHAPTIC stuff in my export script causes a stutter in DCS for your force feedback :(

[@michabee]

Does the DCRealistic program affect fps in DCS as insignificantly as FSRealistic in MFS?

[@rkApps-shop]

Generally speaking yes, but it's very early to know, maybe in some specific cases it doesn't. From our tests and beta testing, the fps impact exist but it's very minimal to none in some cases.

[@CarlWicker]

Does it break integrity check?

[@aplaceinthesky82]

[@Nurhaal]

The audio recording in the clip is weird. For the assumendly higher bass levels on the tarmac take off roll noise and the afterburner noise, it sounds like the bass frequencies are clipping. So it sounds like totally a$$ as a result. Not sure if thats the AV recording software or the actual mod but it is odd and very jarring.

[@swe-timberwolf3642]

How have you made the sounds? For example the afterburner sound for the Hornet at 1:53. Has it been recorded from an actual F/A-18C? Or have you used sounds from the real world aircraft as guide and tried to get as close to the actual sound as possible. Or have you just added a sound that you think sounds good?

[@sambrady9009]

what im wondering aswell, I feel like of all the footage ive watched of IRL it really isnt this dramatic, espedcially with closing the canopy or loud wind noises when your only rolling. Maybe they'll reply to your comment to clarify though.

[@KernitTheFont]

@@sambrady9009 Adding my voice to this. The people want to know! 😄

[@rkApps-shop]

Hey Captains, Great topic! When you watch cockpit videos online, they often use post-stabilization to reduce shakiness, making the video look smooth. In real life, though, when an aircraft is under pressure, such as during a maneuver, the airframe can vibrate due to aerodynamic forces. While it may not shake as much as shown in the video, the pilot's body does move more than you might think. Remember, this is a demonstration and a game, so you can't feel G-forces in your room. The effects are designed to add a layer to simulate this and enhance your experience. They're set on the stronger side by default, but you can adjust them to your preference. Regarding the sounds, many were recorded in a studio to replicate real aircraft sounds. We didn’t sit next to an F18 afterburner, but we believe the sounds effectively do their job. We are aware that some sounds need improvement and are working on it.

It would also be cool to have realistic pilot fatigue(i see the stress). Pilots cant pull 9Gs all day in DCS. That's the one part that is missing. Maybe somedays you can only get 8.5 or if your use sustained 9Gs you actually cant continue to pull it. Or have a recharge for G and set pilot levels. Ace might be able to G up a lot vs a green level. Granted if only you put this on yourself your making it harder to live. The screen shaking all ways bothers me as our eyes and brain are really good at stabilizing plus our bodies are also affected. Artificial shake is always overly portrayed IMO. Same goes for a monocle. You dont notice it unless you want to look at it. We dont see our nose as our brain fills in that are unless we try. The 2d and VR monocles are intrusive vs use looking past or through it 2D more so. Looks like good work but we need this stuff in the game vs a mod that might break IC. All of these ideas can make DCS a bit better.

[@fullyverified7491]

Pilot G load in DCS is realisitc. The updared the f16 recently to specificaly reflect the fact that pilots must be able to handle 9Gs for 30 seconds in real life to qualify for it.

[@HADESPAYLOAD]

@@fullyverified7491 no it is not. They simulate the visual effects but physiology day to day differs. Fatigue from multiple high and negative g will leave them exhausted. Muscular and skeletal, eye, heart neck and brain all get damaged over time. Just like airframes getting bent high g is not something you’re cranking like DCS in MP. We can wait ready to take action if we blackout. That pilot is waking up, learning that he is in the air. He has to make drowsy decisions. I’m a diver and your body has lots of physiological effects.

[@fullyverified7491]

@@HADESPAYLOAD So you want to randomly vary max g loading? Fair enough I guess.

[@HADESPAYLOAD]

@@fullyverified7491 I think just like a plane you might only have 90% or 80%. Pilots can’t be doing sustained 9gs without consequences and they would vary. The human body has carried limits even between pilots. In DCS there are too many sustained rate fights with full blower. I think it might make it more interesting but like the shaking if yours if high and others have it off you might be making the game harder. I feel some changes should be done to nullify the unrealistic DCS MP strats. There are cost being at the edge and DCS does not replicate that. But look we’re often flying single ship flights with no mission plan so…. Nothing is realistic. Pilot modeling to add realism to the few pilot limitations not plane limitations. That seems a bit more role playing which is not my point but man and machine. DCS models plane 90% vs pilot 10%. At a minimum per flight stamina if you keep pushing you black out faster and longer. Is this a status bar, color dot system or digits in the corner? Not sure I don’t want to have a display controls like item as that is great learning but bad immersion. Mover or real pilots would need to chime in. Maybe I’m way off and it breaks more than adds.

[@mikethrower1]

Trust me F-16 pilots can pull 9g’s all day. When I had my flight it was my pilots 3rd incentive ride that day. When we were down pulling g’s he was talking like normally pointing out what kind of trees were down there and I was in the back seat hock tua’ing away. I don’t think my video has us talking on it, I’ll take a look.
