DCS World

[Furia]

Last week we discussed the many aircraft projects that will be under development in 2019. Today, let’s look at some of the non-aircraft projects. As noted last week though, we cannot promise all of these will be released in 2019, but they will all be under focused development.

Ships


Although we released a greatly improved and free Nimitz-class aircraft carrier at the time of the Hornet release, we are also working on a separate Nimitz-class aircraft carrier module. This product will have an incredible level of detail and include such features as a detailed and operable LSO and Air Boss stations, detailed modeling of the hangar, animated deck crew, briefing room, and control of the carrier.

Once this project is complete, the team will finish up the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer and then return to and release the updated Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier.

Radio Communications
The biggest radio communications task are the aircraft carrier communications that includes CASE I, CASE II, and CASE III for departure, marshal, approach, and the Landing Signal Officer (LSO). Once this massive task is complete, we will move on to an overhaul of the airbase radio communications.

New Maps



With 2018 we saw the release of the DCS: Persian Gulf Map. For 2019 we and our partners are working on two new World War II maps, a Syria map, a Falkland Islands map, and a new free map that we’ll discuss later in the year.

In parallel, we will be finishing up the Persian Gulf map with the addition of Liwa Airbase and Ras Al Khaimah airport; Al Ain Air War College; ruins near Shiraz, Kerman, and Bam; and fix remaining bugs. Once complete, it will be the largest DCS World map as measured from airfield to airfield.

Dynamic Campaign
While a hangar of great aircraft is certainly a wonderful thing, having an engaging, exciting, and dynamic combat environment to fly them is equally important. We recognize that and have been developing the inner-workings of a dynamic campaign system for DCS World. This development will continue into 2019 and create a simulation with the simulation of a real-time campaign systems that has each side fighting for dominance across the map. Based on the strategic goals and tactical situations, the systems will create dynamic Air Tasking Orders (ATO) that players then join to help their side to victory. It will be epic!

DCS World Online



In the closing weeks of 2018, we began making the Dedicated Server software available to a handful of trusted 3rd party online servers. Based on their feedback, we have been tuning and expanding the Dedicated Server software to best suit customer needs.

One aspect of the Dedicated Server we are also exploring is the availability of free maps to Dedicated Server hosts.

In addition to the Dedicated Server, the team has also been at work developing an integrated Voice Over IP (VOIP) system for DCS World. The first phase will allow users to use and create “rooms” and the second phase would integrate the VOIP into in-cockpit radio controls.

As mentioned in last week’s newsletter about Modern Air Combat (MAC), we also plan to include leader boards, rankings, and other online statistics for DCS World online players.

DCS World Foundation
In parallel to all the above, the team continues to work on the foundation items of DCS World like air and ground artificial intelligence, performance optimization, more detailed damage models for all unit types, Vulkan implementation, improved VR optimization and improved Touch controller support, wake turbulence from aircraft.

Supongo que esto cuenta como mejoras del core de DCS. ;)

O seguimos aceptando pulpo?

Ya te digo... lo que está marcado en Negrita, es o debería ser Objetivo Nº1 para el 2019 en el core de DCS... que lo lleguen a sacar pronto, es otra historia...
:lol:

¿Qué es "Vulkan"?

Muy buenos planes de futuro. Está claro que tienen que seguir el camino Falcon BMS, aunque se han resistido. Espero que sigan en esa línea e incorporen más cositas. Por ejemplo en la campaña dinámica la opción de manejar un escuadrón y generar tu propio ATO. Da mucho juego. El tema de servicio propio de comms también es algo interesante, aunque quizá llega tarde viendo que SR funciona bien

Mapas.....

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Gratis :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Gratis :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Es normal, se van fijando (también) en Il2 GB; compra aviones o carros o barcos; pero deja que la gente pueda entrar en servidores dedicados con cualquier mapa.

¿Qué es "Vulkan"?

Es una "tecnologia" para el tratamiento de gráficos... algo como el DirectX, para que lo entendamos rápido.

En cuanto al anuncio...
También mola lo de "desarrollo de mas Inteligencia Artificial de unidades de tierra"... y por fin esa mejora de rendimiento y mejoras en VR...

Gratis :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Es un poco of topic, pero no entiendo cómo hace eso IL2, si no tienes el mapa, de dónde cargas las texturas, del host??

Y para volver al tema... Mola que sea prioritario las funcionalidades de comms en el carrier, y no solo los monigotes y hangares!! ;)
