What do you mean by "private OP" ?
An OP not on a public server.
If by tomorrow you mean friday, yeah sure I guess.
Most big /simg/ ops happen on fridays at 22:00 UTC
If you have a mission and someone who can host, we'll fly it.
>ralfi deleted all the negative comments on his video
top kek
No I mean tomorrow
F-5 a thin. THIN!
BMS used to public NASA data on f16 as I remember.
Played with a bunch of guys, one of them was a tech on an f16, said most stuff was accurate, except countermeasure systems cause those are secret or something.
Or an engineer, I don't remember...

How do I force Webm for retards to stop cropping the end off my videos?
I don't care if it destroys my quality once it realizes it's running out of space, I'm sick of waiting for something to webm even after halving the video resolution only to find out it still cuts off a crucial few seconds.
~AGAINST ALL ODDS~
How long are you trying to make webms?
It varies.
Sometimes they're as short as 45 seconds and get cut to 41, sometimes they're 2 minutes long (from a different source) and don't cut at all. (Even with the same filesize limit)
The truncation is infuriating.
Does anyone make display-quality aircraft models or toys or whatever that you don't have to paint and don't look like shit anymore?
I remember when I was a kid you could buy reasonably accurate representations of apaches and cobras and shit in small GI Joe scales at walmarts and shit, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.
Just never set a size limit, it's useless. You need to guesstimate bitrate to fit into 3mb. Also use high quality mode, double pass and only one cpu core.
pls dont die

Fuck off VON

Stop posting anime you little shit
...
so has anyone managed to make the SA342L work for anything that isn't plinking unescorted trucks and shit?
The rockets are nigh unusuable because of recoil and the cannon has crazy dispersion like every other fucking aircraft-mounted autocannon in this game.
Fuck you dude I need to build my anime pilot collection.
>caring about anime
>2016
why? every anime that's come out in the past like fucking half-decade has been horribly bland and boring.
the only thing animu is good for anymore is porn, and even that's not really a factor anymore considering every good artist has to hop onto some shitty meme fetish bandwagon or just go silent with no explanation
Have you watched Konosuba?
It was terrible.
>comedy with predominately female cast, one of whom has a meme eyepatch
pass
You have objectively shit taste and should prob kys
>bland haremshit following the usual formula + the stuck in an mmo-like world that is so popular recently
And you call other peoples taste shit? lmao.
>they haven't actually watched the show
missing out tbqh senpai shit was funny
now is the part in an argument where you present your counterpoint
>When you get killed by an A-10C in front of all da bois
Brb killing myself
>implying I care for anything but porn
I haven't even watched anything new for a half-decade anyway.
My argument is that it's funny, go watch the first episode
like this?
>it's funny
Seth Rogen movies are occasionally funny, too. They're still shit and inherently unlikeable.
>its funny
But it really isn't.
>le white sticky fluid covers all of the female characters oh hahaha so clever
it's consistently extremely funny
I don't give a shit if you don't wanna watch it but don't say it's shit if you haven't even tried it
Embarrassing desu
shit
taste
I'm not gonna defend a decently funny show to a bunch of autists that play sim games
>ad hominem
Why are you here if you look down on people who play flight sims?
>you haven't even tried it!
I don't have to lick my own shit to know that it tastes like shit.
Nigger I watched the entire thing hoping it would get good at some point but it never did.

Which anime would fly F-15C?
attack on titan
a bunch of shitters love it but it's actually shit :3c
Fate
It's ok tovarish. This is more embarrassing.
>We will never get another Area-88 OVA tier anime
>Even if we did, it'd have cringecore CGI
>All the characters would be le cute grills
me in the MiG
I fucked it.
>Area-88 was good
In the case of the OVA, that is correct.
Especially as it has almost no competition in the "Realistic modern jet combat" category.
>Realistic
Belatedly realized someone will sperg over this:
By realistic I just mean "Not 12 year old girls shooting Satan, but men flying jets that fight jets and tanks." not "Sim-tier detail ILS landings and BFM."
>men
Look at that androgynos fagboi in You are saying that's a man? I'd rather have cute grills in my plane than that homo.
What anime is this???
toppu gun~ cute anime girls edition
Pls
he's a fagboi because he doesn't want to be there. he's a civilian pilot who accidentally joined a mercinary air force.
Shitty CGI: Meme team.
if i remember right it's not a real anime, but a show-within-a-show.
>wanting to be a civie pilot instead of being a military pilot

>Bartheks says his 6.5 texture pack is going to be released soon
>He fixed the city textures again, so no more 2D BMS tier city textures underneath the buildings.
MUH
DICK
That was the main reason I got Bartheks textures, but was disappointed when I found out 6.0 had them back in for some reason.
The towns and villages look so clean now. I'm hype.
>the ground is somehow important when you spend all your time at 30k feet
Why?
>flying higher than 5000 feet
What about when you land to rearm your AMRAAMs? :^]
>when you spend all your time at 30k feet
F15 babby detected
But the Ka-50 can't go that high.
>non-collimated HUD
lmfao go back to FSX combat simming
>non-collimated
how can you tell?
HUDs will always be collimated so that they will always be in the same apparent place and in same apparent size
in the animushit pic you can see the hud from an impossible angle in an impossible size
Oh yeah, of course.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Because we can read it from that angle ya goon.
is the FSX F18 a good substitute for DCS F18C
Would any of you guys be willing to do like, da bois crash course in air superiority?
Just spending like an hour or two on TS talking about tips and tricks and doing like mock dogfights? I feel like I've got the very basics of flying most planes down but I still die more than I get kills

Can this meme just end? Art of the Kill doesn't teach shit in BVR conditions
I did and it definitely helped, but I'm taking more about specific shit, like what radar scan mode to use when, quirky Dcs shit, and I'd really love to do like 1v1s with someone spectating me to tell me what I did wrong and right.
It's impossible to train da bois, every 'training' mission descends into messing around and allah-akbaring people as they taxi. """Training""" needs to be one on one or similar small groups.
>spends ages telling you the basics of lead & lag pursuit and a few basic things about turning.
The art of the kill has nothing on BVR and the video is more or less useless unless you're a complete beginner. Read the book if you actually want a discussion of WVR combat in any sort of depth:
mediafire.com
I'm in the same boat. Looking for a senpai to fly with me.
This
For reading material (it's in the OP)
>Air to Air Reference Text
Probably the shortest and easiest to digest. Brings you up to speed with the modern fighter energy/angles mentality.
I actually feel like WVR combat is where I'm best, it's the BVR shit that's giving me trouble
Because BVR boils down to "Beam, lose altitude, then pull back up after ~20 seconds".
>beaming
How is going completely defensive working out for you?
It's easy to read and understand what that means but it's a lot harder to actually execute in game, that's why I'm thinking some 1v1s with spectators could be really helpful to say, oh you didn't angle enough or you were too high and slow, etc.
>completely defensive
You mean shitters on 104th and BF who just turn 180 and then turn back in instead of only going about ~90? You can easily maintain a lock doing this in the Fulcrum/Flanker/Eagle. If you're trying to do BVR in something like the MiG-21, then you deserve to get shit on.
>You can easily maintain a lock doing this in the Fulcrum/Flanker/Eagle.
>maintaining a lock when the target is ~90 degrees off your nose
Errr, sorry pal. I don't think that's gonna happen.
Wanna fly with me? We can teach each other :3
god damit you know what he means
No, he's confusing beaming and cranking when they're completely different things.
Ya :3
But we should prob have some one that knows what he's doing
>implying anyone here knows what they are doing
Maybe we can get ralfi to come give us lessons
>ralfi joins up
>wipes da bois out of the sky
>continued butthurt
yeah, maybe not...
