DC Designs F-14 A/B Tomcat is OUT

[DC1973]

Hi folks!

I have posted a new F-14A video with the updated version, to help promote the forthcoming "Wings Over The Web" airshow which will be streamed live on the official Microsoft Twitch channel on May 22nd. Yours truly will be displaying the F-14A as part of the event. Enjoy!

Tom Cruise would be proud Dean. Great video. Just like being at an airshow. Love my Eagle and Falcon also.

After a short flight the on-board system switches off, everything is dark
I do not know what is causing this anomaly

[Priller]

You might want to check the battery/generators?

I had no problems whatsoever

All switched on
But still, after a little flight, all the gauges go dark

The position of the chocks is wrong

The position of the chocks is wrong

Ah, yes, we changed the contact points a bit more but didn't move the chocks. I will put it on the fix list.

Generators and all the new engine switches must be engaged ( as per the real F-14 ) to ensure you don't lose your avionics. Follow the revised Interactive Checklist as it has several important changes.

Adorable!

I am having a bit of an issue when I go into the cockpit view, not using VR.

Do you have a carrier mod from flightsim.to as well? It causes problems with the F-14 installer and updater. Remove the mod ( the developer is updating it anyway ) and re-install the Tomcats and all should be good.

Great artwork Zsolt!

Dean,

Yes I do.

Many thanks for your help.

Got rid of the carrier files and reinstalled the model but, still no luck.

What am I missing?

Make sure it's the right carrier mod I suppose, very hard to troubleshoot from a distance but I think it was this one;

Once that's out, the F-14s are fine

Hi Dean,

How to adjust the steering of the nose wheel (high-low)?

You will need to slave a keyboard or controller button via the MSFS Controls Menu for now. Tomcats are being updated with a button on the control column to do it with a future update.

Ok,but rudder not active cannot be moved

Yes, that's what I mean. It takes a new update to include the NWS code. Rudders are functional, but the animations do not move ( yet again, another Asobo change that we were not notified of ).

[Navy Chief]

Absolutely beautiful paint, Zolt! Will you be posting it on Flightsim.to? I hope so! NC
