Mas progresos con el Oculus Rift en DCS: W

http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1 ... count=1494

So, I got permission for Oculus to say a bit more...

Both myself and the team in Moscow have the HD Prototypes that are 1080P. (1920x1080)
Split to 960x1080 per eye. It also has reduced latency. This version already provides a much better experience than the DK1 with 640x800 per eye (split).

Alex has been working with it the last week and we already have DCS up and running on the Rift to include:

Head tracking
Re-centering hot key
Automatic Rift detection
Stereo 3D
Fixed HUD projection for 3D
In-mission GUI
Using Rift for view control in Replays
F2 view working with Rift control
Adjustments for distortion and chromatic aberration

More to still do, but things are shaping up well.

¿Supongo que en todo momento estamos hablando de la nueva versión de OR, Crystal Cove, no?

La misma, es la unica 1080 que dispone Oculus Rift actualmente.

About DCS World
DCS World is a vehicle combat simulation game created by Eagle Dynamics. DCS World uses a powerful engine that delivers realistic and engaging gameplay. The battlefield includes a spectacular mission area - the location of the Georgian conflict in 2008. Fly the Su-25T in a massive, semi-dynamic campaign to achieve dominance in the skies over Georgia! DCS World serves as the basis for which all DCS aircraft operate within.

The huge variety of aircraft, land units and warships are included from countries such as the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain and others. Units are controlled by sophisticated Artificial Intelligence (AI) and they have an amazing level of detail. This all allows for the creation of engaging, real-world combat missions in this flashpoint region. DCS is a true "sandbox" simulation that can and will cover multiple time periods covering many types of combat and civilian units.

About The Fighter Collection
The Fighter Collection, as well as developing software for the entertainment and serious game markets, also operates, rebuilds and maintains Europe's largest collection of airworthy WWII fighters and is based at Duxford Airfield, in the UK.

DCS: M1A2?

http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2 ... ostcount=1

Dear all,

We are looking for detailed information on the M1A2, preferably SEP update, to include:

1- Commander's independent thermal viewer (CITV) with second-generation thermal imager, commander's display for digital colour terrain maps for IVIS.

2- DRS Technologies second-generation GEN II TIS thermal imaging gunner's sight.

3- Inter-Vehicle Information System (IVIS.) The IVIS system allows for the automatic and continual exchange of information between vehicles. By incorporating information provided by an on board Position/Navigation (POSNAV) system, unit commander's can track the location and progress of subordinate elements automatically, without tasking vehicle crews. In addition enemy positions can be identified, plotted and disseminated, while reports and artillery requests can be automatically formatted, transmitted, and processed. Lastly, map graphic control measures and operational orders can be rapidly distributed via the IVIS system.

4- Complete and detailed description of the driver control system and driver's integrated display and thermal management system.

4- Detailed functional description of all commander, gunner and driver control panels.

5- Detailed and complete photography of inside commander, gunner, loader, and driver areas.

- Note, please do not just link to items found on Google. Been there, done that.

If you feel you have unique data that is NOT classified, pleas drop me a PM. We may also be looking for M1A2 SMEs.

Thanks!
Matt

Vaya pasada...

El tema de los carriers sería interesantísimo de probar.

A pesar de tener varios productos de DCS me sigue asombrando la calidad, que maravilla. A ver si arranca finalmente como simulador. El problema de hacer los aviones separados es que no le dan un contexto o teatro de batalla para empezar a hacer cosas "complejas"

A ver si terminan de implementar el nuevo motor, de paso, tendremos que esperar a una mejora en los portaviones, todavia hay fayos en MP que limitan la jugabilidad.

2014 is already shaping up to be a very exciting year for DCS with some great developments:

1 - The impending release of DCS version 1.2.8. You can read the preliminary change log at the end of this letter.

2 - We are making great progress on implementing our new graphics engine into DCS version 1.3.0 later this year. The new engine brings several important improvements, notably: improved visual qualities, DX11 effects, improved performance, and the ability to support multiple maps including the long-awaited Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) map!

3 - While we continue to update several of our existing aircraft like the F-15C, Su-27, Su-33 and MiG-29, the team is also hard at work on new aircraft including the Fw-190 and F/A-18C Hornet.

4 - Our third party partners have also been very busy! 2014 will see the release of several new third party aircraft including the BAE Hawk, MiG-21Bis and F-86F Saber.

5 - In additional to our traditional focus on aircraft, we are also gradually expanding and improving the ground combat component of DCS World. Not only does this include continued improvements and additions to Combined Arms, but also work towards our first DCS level armor vehicle simulation.
Exciting times!
