New HIGH RES SCREENS of Campain for Gazelle

[HIGH RES PICTURES, LET IT LOAD wink.gif ] 

At least, was authorized to give you some screens. Some will introduce you some characters of the campaign : Phoenix-1 (You), Phoenix-2, and Meatboy-1 (British RAF Apache), plus some screens from a mission of the campaign (with the Mi-24 and Leclercs). Most of them are random screens I took while editing the campaign or just having fun on little improvised trainings...

My only problem with this sim... Too War-ish.... 

 

I HATE War :-( and am forced to use these sims and spend countless hours playing air combat like a kid, or learning systems that have nothing to do with my Boeing FMC / Airbusr FMGC...

 

Looking good the Gazelle !

Gazelle Live-stream and Q&A at April 10.
 
http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2735909&postcount=1
Dear all,
 
On Sunday, April 10 at 1100 US Pacific Time, Polychop and I plan do to a Youtube livestream of the Gazelle. Next week we plan to move the Gazelle into test, and we think this is a great time to start showing off the near-final product. In addition to me trying my hand at flying the Gazelle, the Polychop team will be on chat to answer Gazelle questions posted in this thread.
 
 
In addition to showing off the Gazelle, we will also be providing a first look at a massive texture overhaul DLC of the Caucasus map done by Starway. More information on this will be coming.
 
Please post your Gazelle questions here for Polychop.
 
Thanks,
Matt

Dear Simmers,


Here are the answers for the Q&A's on the Gazelle:

Q : Will multicrew support be available at release?
A : no

Q : The Sa-342 Gazelle module include HOT and Scout variant, or have separate modules?
A : The release version will feature the HOT3 viviane version only, other variants will be added through updates post release

Q: In single-player (no multicrew), I assume that the AI pilot takes over at this point?
A: no AI pilot, you do everything on your own, meaning you put the helicopter in hover manually, then engage the autopilot auto-hover mode, then go to the copilot position

Q: If the player is sitting in the aircraft commander position, are the flight controls still active? I.e., pushing cycling etc.
A: yes, you can pilot the helicopter from the commander position

Q:We've heard that there will be special support for the recon mission hard-coded into the Gazelle. Does this mean that, e.g., if a specific target is in the LOS of the Gazelle some event will be triggered?
A: Such features were at test stage some time ago but were given up for technical reasons, mostly FPS issue and multiplayer incompatibility

Q: is it going to have campaign juts like Iraq-iran war?

A : 4300 m

A: SNEB Rockets and 20mm gun

Q: Have you worked with real life Gazelle pilots to make this module ?
A: yes

Q: Honestly, is there some systems that you are not able to put in the module compared to the real gazelle (by lack of information or other factors) ?
A: most sytems are fully functional, classified parts are not simulated

Q: Will there be a civil version or atleast a version without optics and weapons?
A: yes

Q: What are the limitations on the targeting camera and laser?
A: camera specifications are described in the manual, the laser is just for distance calculation, not for guiding a weapons

Q: Do they overheat?
A: no, laser device doesn't lase continuously

Q: Will the Gazelle module have an engine damage model featuring the effects of excessive torque, engine TGT or oil temperature? 
A: yes

Q: Does the gazelle have radar and ir jammers and detection equipment? 
A: no radar, no IR jammer, but RWR and Flare dispenser

Q: What systems will be modeled and to what fidelity?
A: all systems as real as we could

Q: I would also like to know more about multi-crew also.
will their be individual slots similar to the L-39 when viewing the multiplayer GUI?
if multi-seat functionality is limited, can you just sit as a passenger? (although i hope pilot and co-pilot HOT operator will have their respective functions)
A: Multi-crew features questions can be answered only when it will be available

Q: Is it possible to use the Gazelle as a JTAC and share the laser with others modules as A10C with research mode?

Q: Will we have Force Feedback?
A: Force Feedback has not been fully implemented yet

Q: could you tell us more about the autopilot and trim system on the gazelle?
A: the autopilor provides more stability, and 4 modes : altitude hold,speed hold, auto-hover, slaved to the camera target
The trim features 2 systems, a trimmer like in ka-50 and a trim actuator just like a plane

Q: Which countries in the ME will be able to use the Gazelle?
A: all that have at least one livery defined, at release time it will be France,USA,UK,Germany,Greece,Israel,Russia,Serbia, Syria.

Q:if the wire is cut does the missile continue on trajectory until it makes contact on it flight path or until it runs out of energy or does it go into an abort profile and turn skyward and explode safely?

Polychop update, Sa342 improvemens and Sa342L pics with new armament.
 
http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2779766&postcount=1
Dear Simmers,
 
almost 4 weeks after the Gazelle release, we're still busy improving things on our module to give you the best 
flight experiences possible. We also like to take the change to say thank you to all of you for the positive feedback  
Speaking of that, we improved our FM, based on additional feedbacks of real Gazelle Combat pilots - and of course, we also fix
the issues based on your feedbacks. We also will create a video on how to create bugs effectively.
 
The main fixes are:
 
* no more skid sliding when taking off
* improved Curve behaviour
* Rudder sensitivity
 
and a few other things like Rudders to be assigned to the keyboard and switching off the Co-Pilot's body 
 
SA342L:
We're on a good way to deliver you with the free add-on which features the GIAT Gun, Rocket pod, Mistral and the Sniper Team in 
the rear compartment. In the last days we made some testing on the new peacemakers -> only gun and rocket. Everything is WIP
