DCS: Mig 21

Para nosotros bien, a beczl no se que tal le parecerá que le hayan birlado amigablemente y sin presiones su proyecto.

Nunca sabremos que sucedió exactamente. Esperemos que el proyecto agarre mas impulso y lo tengamos pronto .

Mig-21Bis

Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!

OK, it's late, I'm still awake, just finished few things with Mike /Rudel/.

I have few minutes for update - not a fancy one /I have low-end PC, no fancy screens.../.

 

In latest set of weapons tests, Roland and I implemented 3 pods available for RU planes: GUV-7800 G, GUV-7800 M and UPK-23-250. Note that I have never saw 21Bis with any of these.

 

Most integrated weapon is UPK-23-250. Really impressive thing and closest to MiG-21Bis weapon system. I really recommend that one instead of 7800M. It has 2xGsh 23mm guns /which is the same gun 21 have/ and can pack serious punch. Besides, it fits the ASP natively. Pure Eagle weapon, no tweaks or "guessed" stuff. UPK will come with 21 for sure, well see about other things /more integration and tests needed... time?/.

 

I have no screens at the moment, sorry. Mike might fire few rounds for you if he has some time tomorrow.

 

As for the Kh-66, it's done also. You will have difficulties with this weapon, although it is a fun and a challenge to use it. Ill tell you just one thing that will create a lot of problems: asymmetric load after one missile is fired. Asymmetric load for heavy payload is not allowed on 21. However, once you get in the cockpit it will be your problem. At the moment it is ours. You'll have to discover other problems and realize why weapon development went the other way.

 

We only need to integrate new Kh control box although it could be used even without it.

 

(Note: screens here are 3 days old, that's all I have at the moment.)

Manual del Mig-21Bis en progreso

About the manual

 

Lot of people asked similar questions: will it be available in their language, how does it relate to original 21 manual, is it near completion etc.

 

Since we are making 21Bis mod for DCSW, there are differences between simulated 21Bis and real 21Bis (as you must have noted so far). Therefore, the only relevant document for DCS MiG-21Bis will be its manual. This does not prevent you from using any other document you might have, but DCSW MiG-21Bis will be what’s written in its manual.

 

Manual is near completion, still, I have to write and illustrate missing parts concerning recently added features, most notably new weapon use and complex navigation subsection (e.g. radials interception with RSBN). Note that manual can be finished after we finish everything else (e.g we need finished internal/external model and textures for manual illustrations). Before we conclude it (“lock†it), it has to be approved by Eagle.

 

Manual in your language? Absolutely.

Once concluded in English, manual will be available for translation to anything community can provide. Document containing the detailed “call for translators†will be presented here on time. Translations that satisfy required standards, quality and are delivered in time will be included in official release. Other translations (rejected, late, partial etc.) can still be presented to community here or elsewhere to support local players, but will not be included in release.

Mig-21 parece que esta proximo a ser release:

Folks,

 

We're all hard at work behind the scenes, hence the slight gap in structured information. We've been aiming at providing you with a more "meaty" update, but hopefully this stop-gap measure will provide a small measure of relief until that one is completely ready.

 

Every feature and system that is required for release is now implemented.

All of these components are undergoing testing and iteration, to make sure everything is working as intended.

In the past few weeks we have also replaced several legacy components, including a full overhaul of the weapons and their definitions. (See weapons thread)

 

The AFM has been finished for several months.

 

Essentially -- we are preparing the aircraft for testing and approval.

 

We've made considerable progress in mission and campaign construction, including tutorial missions. These are going to be voice-acted in the next few days. Another critical learning component: the manual, will soon reach its' final iteration, at which point we can initiate localizated translations.

 

Art-wise; -Rudel- is now working on the last, and final, exterior component of the aircraft, which is the tail and vertical/horizontal stabilisers.

 

Livery creation is in full swing on already completed parts. Stencils (decals) have proved to be a major timesink.

We're recreating these in multiple languages, as several countries had localized ones.

 

In the past few weeks we've also completely overhauled the art of roughly 60% of our custom weapon models and textures.

 

Apart from the aforementioned; all other art is ready for release.

 

Hopefully this gives you a small overview of the state of the aircraft,

and we look forward to sharing much more with you in the coming update.

 

 

Thank you for your patience and support,

Ufff....menos mal...que suerte.

Small Update time,

 

We're still chugging away at essentially the same items noted in the last mini-update.

Testing of all aircraft systems is well underway. Missions are a few days away from being finished.

 

Mike is beginning to rivet away on the rear fuselage, the last remaining part to be textured on the exterior.

Decals and first liveries are well underway.

 

More weapons are being overhauled art-wise.

The cockpit has seen several new additions and overhauls of existing components. Hundreds of art-related fixes have been rolled in. There are still some spelling errors to fix and various other additions to make (normal and specular maps for many components, lamp glow, etc.)

 

The manual draft has been finished and now needs to go through revision (spellchecking, grammar, readability, etc.) before initiating localization.

 

Administrative tasks such as the new website have been prioritized in the last week.

Things should be popping up very soon.

 

Excuse my brevity and somewhat incoherent post -- dawn is approaching and coffee is no longer having any effect.

 

Enjoy a mixed bag of pics of various stuff below.

Work in progress, so handful of salt, as always.

 

We're getting very close now.

Thank you all for your support,
