If an 18 page manual is a lot, I can only imagine what it would be like to see Jimmy trying to learn a full fidelity module in DCS

[@OCinneide]

And a manual that isn't gamey at that. DCS manuals are literal aircraft manuals. Chuck's Guides are better for "Playing".

[@GreenBlueWalkthrough]

Or a modern passenger car Manuel that's 400 pages+ that you should read/reference but most people don't.

[@petrnedved5297]

@@GreenBlueWalkthroughbecause most people don’t. Figurínu out how to start the engine is pretty intuitive in a car, not so much in any fighter jet or airliner. Starting the engines can be a 20+ step process, plus preflight checks that you must do to insure you won’t die.

[@kekke2000]

My head also went to flight sim. Like the PMDG Boeings etc. It's nice when pretty much all buttons works as they should.

[@GreenBlueWalkthrough]

@@petrnedved5297 And you wonder why most people throw out cars after 4 years... Which it depends on the plane and what time you have... Like an LSA is less then 5 steps but a 1960s airliner is insanity and you need more then 2 people to do it right... Regardless all DCS aircraft can be started well under a dozen steps and honestly if you know what your doing you can figure it out. What is truly tricky about Airplanes is what to look at not what order to do them as it's mostly the same... Not to mention the new planes with "Airplane go button's" Also no DCS I've read is nearly as good as the one featured in this video as they don't normally say how to use the craft insim which for someone like me is the only time I need a manuel for a flight sim... Like my first experince with the free and Flaming cliffs aircraft was made much harder then it should have been because they are ripped from real manuels or Wikipedia with a fewexceptionss like the free frogfoot which to it's credit has some sim controls in it and the Apache which has a peice on George... Otherwise if you come from other sims, games or have researched the craft or just know combat aviation the DCS manuals are completely useless to you.

[@augiesipes]

For once my wheel doesn't have enough buttons

[@ndhulse]

G29 pleb here. How do you think I feel? 😅

[@Schmawlik]

Don’t worry, I made the Extended Controls with my G923 in mind. I can bind every new option in the FA23 on my G923 using modifier buttons.

[@tylerhicks621]

​@@SchmawlikI would definitely like to see what your button mappings look like

[@GhostWolfC35]

"Yeah relatable! Totally!" The G29 owner lied naturally as he spoke

[@augiesipes]

I forgot about modifier buttons

[@amp888]

7:38 You can restart the real current F1 cars with MGU-K too. One of the earliest well-known examples was Sainz at the 2016 Malaysian GP, who stalled on the grid and was able to restart using MGU-K (there's a story on Autosport about it). There are a few other examples with onboard video (e.g. Vettel in Austria 2020 after getting his car called to the weigh bridge and Kimi at Melbourne in 2017).

[@Schmawlik]

Exactly! That’s why we tied the “starter” button to the KERS activation button.

[@Bongomancan1]

Literally says this after he's just restarted the car with the MGU-K 😂🤷‍♂️ but anyways it certainly used to be very valid and if there isn't a decent state of charge still will be!

[@Schmawlik]

@@Bongomancan1 We even made sure to add that aspect in, so if the energy store is too low, you cannot restart the car with the MGU-K :)

Welcome to the world of flight sim. The guide followed to learn to fly the F-18 is massive!

[@__-fm5qv]

[@Issam-od4pg]

Well this mod should be a blast to you then

[@Reazy-]

How?

[@mircoh.8367]

@@Reazy- I made a post on Reddit about it, basically I modeled it in CAD after an image of Lewis steering wheel, and then I 3D printed it, used momentary switches, ALPS rotary encoders, 1k ohm pots for the clutches and a Leo Bodnar BBI to connect them all. Also an Arduino Nano for the RGB LEDs and a Vocore 4 inch USB display, both controlled via Simhub and running my custom programmed dash replica of Lewis‘s W14

[@UnderwaterAlexJones]

It requires 2 things, a great fucking pilot and a whole ass lot of time as you need to rerecord all the fucking AI lines for every track.

[@z3r1nh08]

Things that Jimmy didn't show in the video: steering wheel appearance customization, the aero kits change the shape of the wings, when you adjust anything in the car, that thing will have visual effects, the halo can be turned off, different settings for the RPM leds in game steering wheel, various tires compounds that change visually according to the selected tire, the tires have different visuals according to the level of worn, different pages of the in game steering wheel can be selected at anytime, examples: qualifying and warmup, etc. There are many more things, but I can't bother to remember now.

[@ikkezegtie]

imagine being on Monaco and the engineer asks you to change 3 settings, 8 times a lap. Jimmy would go insane.

[@feletics7599]

They should use this mod for F1 Esports

[@volkarach0293]

They prefer shitty f1 games🤣

[@kanojo1969]

This is something I've wanted to see for so long... but I know for a fact I couldn't deal with the full-accuracy myself, I'd need a dumbed-down mode where I handle like 5 different things. Not 50. It makes Liam Lawson's first weekend in F1 a little bit more impressive when you realise he's got to adjust to this from his regular super formula ride, which is no doubt just as complex but completely different.

[@hoiaxel]

Dude it would be amazing to see you pull off a race in this thing with an actual Race Engineer! Might be a long shot but would be great to see something like that and use this mod to near its full potential.

[@ndhulse]

In my "Octavia Cup 2008" uploaded to RD almost 1,5 years ago there is fully working replica of ST8100 digital dashboard with 4 switchable pages, settings pages, a lot of features, pushable animated buttons, I even included the original manual to the mod, and nobody has never created a video about it :D

Yes, dear god. I will be able to die at peace once someone creates an 'official' F1 game that has proper simracing handling, physics, better AI (though I'd say the current F1 games are at the very least better than Assetto Corsa's default AI for the built-in tracks lol), and a higher depth of control over cars and strategy. The day we get an F1 game with cars that are like the VRC Formula Alpha with handling as good as AMS2 or iRacing, with laserscanned tracks - will be the day of reckoning, for sure.

MOZA is absolutely wrecking everyone for the money!

[@e2rqey]

yeah aggresive throttle setting + low speed corner exit probably not a good combination. You have basically no downforce at those speeds, so with the throttle being that aggressive, you're just going to end up spinning the rear wheels because you don't have the traction to put down that much power. Probably need to go with a much less aggressive throttle, and adjust your corner exit differential for those slow speed corners. It is crazy that drivers are able to adjust all that stuff during the lap, sometimes adjusting settings per corner. There's a video of Alonso doing exactly that at Bahrain in Qualifying. When you realize the sheer amount of things that they can actually tweak and optimize to produce the lap times they do IRL, you realize why they have a whole team of people both at the track and back at the factory working to figure all of this stuff out. I knew basically nothing about cars when I first started sim racing, and pursuing faster lap-times has taught me so much about how cars work, the physics of vehicle dynamics, and what all of those various different setup variables actually do. That being said, I certainly haven't figured everything out and those Formula Alpha cars introduced entire aspects of car optimization id never even seen or considered before. Its definitely is super overwhelming at first, but I've just been gradually figuring it out as I go.
