AV8B-NA Cockpit Displays - Readability at High Resolution

MAJ DCS 2.8 - 23/11/2022

AV8B-NA displays fonts look blurry at high resolution.
Zooming in fixes it, but using this mod, displays (HUD and MPCD) look sharper at normal zoom,
using a 32” display 16:9, 4K 3840x2160 resolution.

hola, este seria mi segunda skin pero esta vez para el av8b.

Mission 4 of the Pirate Voyage - this time you're escorting an aid convoy.

This mission was inspired by events and sorties described in "617 - Going to war with today's Dambusters" by Tim Bouquet - about the deployment of RAF Tornadoes fr om 617 squadron to Afganistan in 2011 - squadron motto "Apres moi - le deluge".  They took over from a Harrier squadron, and this is one of the types of missions they frequently flew, although it's a tad busier.

All the same, it's a change of pace from the missions so far - just babysitting a convoy - what could possibly go wrong?
Expect to get a lot of use out of the targetting pod, and lots of practice finding and wh ere neccesary engaging targets, once again with a little help from Marine Force recon team Barbossa.

Updated 4th Jan 2021, added pdf briefing and maps, minor edits to the mission itself.
Updated 6th November 2021 to reflect changes to Harrier ordnance options.

With Qeshm airport now in rebel hands after this morning’s action, aid supplies are being unloaded both from UAE C130s at the airport and the Tarawa and Nicholas, which have docked at Shib Deraz.

A Forward Operating Base – Tortuga - has been established at Qeshm airport to operate a small force of Cobras and Harriers.

Satellite intel has shown multiple aircraft warming up at Bandar Lengeh airbase (codename Dead man’s Chest) to the east.  They’re being loaded with rockets and bombs, so it appears that the squadron based there is planning to raid the airbase and/or the Tarawa group.

Two flights of Harriers are going to carry out a pre-emptive attack – putting the runway and it’s SAM and AAA protection out of action – preventing the strike and stopping the base from being reinforced with more aircraft from the north.

Qeshm Island has declared independence from the mainland Iranian government after a major earthquake.
Help fly in relief supplies by removing the air defence threat and any forces preventing access to the airfield.

Hey guys a new flight deck i worked on for the LHA Tarawa.

Skin it's based on photos of AV-8B+ (serial number165568) used in VMA-211 "Wake Island Avengers" made for @nerdkid_23 ;) In practice it is a cosmetic modification of the already existing in DCS skin but I wouldn't say it was easy.

You must know it isn't 1-to-1 copy - you will get a variable tactical numbers (this is why the ones on the nose are moved to the front of the original), also serial numbers are variable... oh and there is no under cockpit pilot name tape. But rest is pure gold ;)

I hope you will like it and have fun while use it now... and when we will get the Marianas Islands Map ;)<

Changes from v. 1.0:
- added new helmet decal
- fixed few small issues with textures on nose and tail
- better tires

Instalation:
Unzip pack and put folders in to AV8BNA file. You will find it here: (...)\DCSWorld\CoreMods\aircraft\AV8BNA\Liveries\AV8BNA

Squadron briefing room for use in multiplayer missions. Support up to 25 pilots in one room with synced briefings.

Just place a new heli, make sure to set it to client, pick the livery if you have a custom one or pick from one of the two we provide and that's it. Fire up the server and you should see the 25 slots that pilots can join into.

Night Vision Goggle (NVD) Shader update to make it behave more like the real thing. You can view the cockpit instruments and panels in your peripheral vision. Should work with TrackIR and VR. I am aware that in VR you see two circles but in Track IR you see one. I'm still working on the convergence for the VR viewpoint and will update when I figure out that code. So for now enjoy the wider field of view! Video of it in action here! https://www.dropbox.com/s/5elduqluz9tszrj/DCS%20NVG%20MOD.mov?dl=0
