The A-10 has a long history in DCS, and today we are proud to share another leap forward with a greatly improved and accurate pilot model, complete with a new ejection sequence  and a highly detailed first-person model that is ideal for VR.

The A-10C II Tank Killer pilot model new features:

• A fully redesigned, high-fidelity 3D pilot model
• Updated flight gear, survival equipment, and harness details
• Realistic helmet, oxygen mask, and goggle geometry
• An entirely new ejection animation, bringing more authenticity and impact to emergency procedures
• Enhanced cockpit body mesh and textures
• Accurate gloves, flight suit materials, and animations

Final tasks include work on more realistic animations, specifically the ejection sequence, seat trajectory and more realistic body movements in cockpit. This is part of our ongoing efforts to make the A-10C II Tank Killer cockpit feel more alive, especially during long CAS missions while in VR. Please stay tuned for the upcoming DCS update, you love this new pilot model.

Pimax

Promotion

This is a promotional message from Pimax: The Crystal Super micro-OLED takes the original Crystal Super design and upgrades it with dual 4K Sony micro-OLED panels paired with Pimax’s ConcaveView pancake optics. 

For a limited time, a purchase of the new Crystal Super Micro-OLED comes with an additional credit of 40,000 ED Miles (worth USD$40 in the DCS e-shop) when you use code DCS40K at checkout.

About the micro-OLED Crystal Super

Each of the 27 million pixels (3840 x 3552 per eye) can be turned off and on individually, meaning ultra crisp visuals, fine contrasts, and zero pixelated edges around objects. If you fly in a night scene, micro-OLED panels have no panel backlight bleeding, meaning black pixels stay truly black with no unwanted glow.

The three-layer ConcaveView lenses deliver the widest field of view of any micro-OLED VR headset, with 116° of horizontal FOV, and offer edge-to-edge clarity. And with eye-tracking, users can use QuadViews Dynamic Foveated Rendering in DCS without any third-party software, getting FPS boosts of up to 50%!

The integrated audio and ergonomic backstrap make the headset comfortable and ideal for long sessions in DCS. With a cabled connection to your PC, there’s visually lossless compression over DisplayPort 1.4a, and thanks to four SLAM tracking cameras, no base stations are required.
