I don’t think they ever would, because people would expect full fidelity. And to release a paid mod for DCS that’s what the requirement is, too. Obviously, with an F35, full fidelity is not going to happen, but the MSFS limitations are quite severe - the STOVL system could be implemented much better in DCS, DAS would be the real life 360 degree IRST with HMD FLIR, the SAR would be an actual synthetic aperture radar, in short it would be a million times better. The F-35 mod for DCS that currently exists just doesn’t really do either the plane or the sim justice. It’s a shame because I used to play MSFS a lot, coming from FSX with the VRS Tacpack equipped F35, but since discovering DCS it’s another level. Now I look back at the F35 in MSFS and wish it wasn’t so hamstrung by the sim. Mind you, I can’t buzz my own house at Mach 1.6 in DCS…

Can you do a video on normal landings in the F35, covering using different states of the FBW system? According to the manual there is a FBW mode transition at 50ft if you have the FBW system on, or you can use the flap lever to turn it off. Would be interesting to see the differences in techniques needed for landing (and reference speeds) especially being prepared for the FBW mode change at 50ft if you are in auto mode.

@cgaviator Жыл бұрын

I wasn’t aware the FBW could be switched off! I’ll have to take a peak. I was aware that there’s a bug in the FBW that causes a loss of control from 50ft. Real pain! The landing techniques would largely follow on of the methods in my land any jet video 👍🏻

Flaps are automatic though I believe there’s an override with the fly by wire modelling if you select modelling. Airbrake is the keybind for Airbrake or maybe spoilers. Airbrake is the inward movement of the rudders, not a board that comes up. Hope that helps

I’ve just purchased this for MSFS through the XBox…..I have to say that my first impression is really not very good. It looks the part, definitely, but I find it’s performance sadly lacking; like struggling to reach Mach 1 at low level with full reheat and a ‘clean’ airframe. Please tell me I’m overlooking something 🤞🏼

@cgaviator 3 ай бұрын

Are you using afterburner? It needs to be toggled on to enable it.

@dmoder1019 3 ай бұрын

Affirm, afterburner is lit up. Once airborne, if I set max throttle (minus afterburner), it’ll cruise along at Mach 0.97, but it’ll not exceed that unless I hit reheat. I must admit that I’m enjoying it a little more than yesterday, I was just hoping for better performance. Of the fast jets I’ve purchased, it’s a far cry from Top Mach Studios’ F22, CJ Simulations’ Typhoon & Rafale, and the Deimos Inc Griffin.

Hi I bought msfs standard version on steam and now I'm installing it about 150gb, then I want to install the F -35 the problem is on Steam I can't find it, if I buy it on the Microsoft marketplace the weapons don't work if I understand correctly, so purchase on Simmarket then for the installation how to proceed? Thanks

@cgaviator Жыл бұрын

I’m not familiar with the steam version. I presume that there’s still a community folder? You’d have to buy it again to get the weapons. You should be able to buy from simmarket or Orbx and follow the installation. But I can’t really advise as I don’t have the steam version.

I really want to like IFTE, but they have struggled to optimize their products for Xbox and seem to believe every flight simmer needs to have a mouse plugged in even though it can cause issues on Xbox. For ex. the MB339 was lovely, but a recent Xbox update doesn’t allow the generators to turn on and IFTE has blamed MS/Asobo even though this was not associated with a sim update.

@cgaviator Жыл бұрын

That’s the trouble when MS brings what was a PC game to Xbox and all the developers work to PC standards but the Xbox has its limits. Opinion only I guess. They do appear to have been working hard to optimise. But I also thought the updates had been breaking various things along the way.

@TickleFight94 Жыл бұрын

@@cgaviator Perhaps, but MS, Asobo, and 3rd party devs seem to be enjoying the paycheck from Xbox customers. Some devs have worked really hard to bring excellent products to Xbox with little to no sacrifice (Flying Iron, SWS, FSW, etc.) Perhaps IFTE just needs more time as the T45 would just CTD for a long time.

@@cgaviator I think you misunderstood. There is a quality gap between PC and Xbox, yet we all pay the same. Some developers have figured out how to close that gap. I wasn’t talking about effort or motivation. I know the community put a lot of pressure on IFTE to make the F-35 just work on Xbox. I haven’t tested it but was glad to see the MB-339 Gen issue is addressed in patch notes released today.
