This mod absolutely slaps

@Xale For now I'm not sure changing the image would be an easy job due to the shitty Arma 3 UI framework. For the DLC/vanilla jets it's hard to manually change all the values and I try to keep them for 3rd party addons.

Yes the size but is not big problem.
And I wanted to know if you were going to put realistic values ​​on the DLC or vanilla jet tanks, the maximum speed too.

@Xale Thank you for using this mode, sadly the checklist related code has been not updated for over few years and even I forgot how most of the code works. However minor fixes may be possible. Do you mean the image size by the 'size'?
Xale © 4 Feb @ 10:29am 
Thank you for you great mod, i just want to know if we can reduces the size of the cheklist ?

@HBAOplus With the update the transponder action does not appear when automatic transponder control is enabled in addon settings (which is default btw) so that should be useful. Happy Arma! XD

@Orbis2358
Thank you for the update! I guess an extra toggle for transponder is enough:steamhappy:
Orbis2358  [author] 27 Nov, 2024 @ 9:52pm 
@HBAOplus GPWS toggle is updated, you can set it to disabled and apply it globally from the server or mission file in addon settings.
Orbis2358  [author] 27 Nov, 2024 @ 9:17pm 
@Sora PR's been merged and published, thank you!
Orbis2358  [author] 27 Nov, 2024 @ 9:16pm 
@HBAOplus It's not implemented atm but I can work on it, do you have other features you'd like to toggle other than the GPWS?
Sora 27 Nov, 2024 @ 5:35pm 
I submitted a pull on github to fix the low audio in first person cockpit view. Do let me know either on steam or github if you have any issues with it. I didn't do extensive testing myself, but it was working as-is with the small fix. (litterally a single line) additional changes are described in the pull request.

Thanks!
HBAOplus 22 Nov, 2024 @ 6:38pm 
will there be an options to disable modern devices (eg. GPWS) provided by AWESome in CBA settings? It may be very helpful when play WW2 era missions. :steamhappy:

Is the MFD in the pictures from this mod?
LAND0_NORRIS 28 Dec, 2023 @ 9:25pm 
alright thanks!:steamhappy:
Orbis2358  [author] 28 Dec, 2023 @ 5:05am 
@J-Money @LANDO_NORRIS I don't have deep knowledge about the Aaren's mod, so I cannot say for certain. However, AFAIK the mod is only for visual upgrade, so it won't be a problem to use with AWESome. Headshake might be a problem, but will have to see.
LAND0_NORRIS 27 Dec, 2023 @ 3:28am 
does this work with Aarens Advance Aero Effects?
J-Money 24 Dec, 2023 @ 1:47pm 
Does this conflict with "Plane Turbulence" or "Advanced Aero Effects" at all?
Sora 29 Sep, 2023 @ 9:41am 
Ah okay, thanks for the info! :pinkheart:
Orbis2358  [author] 29 Sep, 2023 @ 6:06am 
@Sora It has to do with the plane reducing volumes during in cockpit. It's originally for engine sounds but for some reason the voices are also affected. I'm working on a fix but will take some time
Sora 14 Sep, 2023 @ 10:27am 
I'm having issues where the vocal speech is barely audible in first person but in third person the vocals are normal. Was wondering if its an issue with the mod or game itself and if there is a fix?
Orbis2358  [author] 21 Aug, 2023 @ 1:44pm 
@Sheliz What calculations you mean?
Orbis2358  [author] 21 Aug, 2023 @ 1:44pm 
@Maj. Eagle Can you mail me the server log? I'll take a look into that issue.
mgkid3310@naver.com
Sheliz 14 Aug, 2023 @ 8:38pm 
Do calculations affect performance?
C. Eagle 11 Aug, 2023 @ 6:22am 
a decent amount. I can give you the server settings to for this mod, should that be a possible issue.. but yeh the server log gets spammed with that issue
Orbis2358  [author] 9 Aug, 2023 @ 5:19am 
@Maj. Eagle Hmm haven't seen such errir message before, does the message pop up repeatedly? If so, what addons do you use other than AWESome?
C. Eagle 5 Aug, 2023 @ 8:31am 
Getting this issue? on server.

@Frosted Flake Hello! On the code, it doesn't consider if the plane is jet or prop. What it does is re-calculating the thrust/drag/lift/etc. with enhanced parameters like air temp, wind, pressure, etc. Therefore, considering prop planes have lower takeoff speed, I suspect it may be the wind that's affecting takeoff performance. Or ammunition plays a big role here, as it increases weight and increase takeoff speed.
Yo Gabba Gabba! 14 Jul, 2023 @ 8:04am 
Very niche, I know, but I'm wondering how this mod effects the prop planes in the Mil Aviation pack and Unsung? It seems like with Spearhead on the way, maybe prop planes could be worth another look? I find they're stalling more easily and having longer takeoffs than the references suggest. I know that's a bit broad, but I thought maybe that would help?
Orbis2358  [author] 9 Jul, 2023 @ 6:25am 
@xJohn0090x I'd suggest Advanced model but default is fine if you only want ATC and GPWS features
xJohn0090x 8 Jul, 2023 @ 12:05am 
I'm sure this has been asked, but I don't want to go through 300+ comments

Do I need to enable "Advanced flight model" under game settings? Or is Normal fine?
Orbis2358  [author] 15 Jun, 2023 @ 7:18pm 
@icha All planes will benefit from AWESome as AWESome is not mod-specific tweak but works with aerodynamics and physics engine. Super Hornet is realistic in performance/handling aspect, but aerodynamics like wind, air density and more are not considers in Arma 3 itself. AWESome handles such aerodynamic effects.
icha 15 Jun, 2023 @ 10:47am 
Do any of the more advanced planes, like the Super Hornet or the USAF mod ones, benefit from this or are their flight models sufficiently realistic as they are?
Orbis2358  [author] 14 Jun, 2023 @ 5:49am 
@Green-Bread You need to setup a radar monitor for that. Checkout README.md file on Github
Green-Bread 5 May, 2023 @ 5:09am 
How can you use the ATC feature?
Lezard The Only One 26 Mar, 2023 @ 8:23am 
Is there a compatibility mod, i use a modded aircraft and it dosent work with the gpws
Fercho 2 Mar, 2023 @ 7:41am 
thanks!!!
Orbis2358  [author] 2 Mar, 2023 @ 5:52am 
@Fercho Sure, the mod is licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, therefore you can change code, repack and redistribute as you like if you keep my name on authors list and keep non-commercial.
Fercho 30 Jan, 2023 @ 10:17am 
@Orbis2358, Can I repack in a clan pack??? Regards
Abraham 16 Jan, 2023 @ 8:27am 
can you add more gpws sounds?
Emu 30 Nov, 2022 @ 3:35am 
sucks that this bonks the usaf mods but im all for the f-16 GPWS
Nobilis 21 Oct, 2022 @ 2:28am 
Hey, very nice work so far. I'm realy enjoying the GPWS. Would you be so kind to "open" it up for helicopers as well? Modern helicopers do also has a GPWS with some warnings like "100", "Terrain", "gear", "ChaffFlair", ...
Would be nice to have it in the vanilla helicopers like the ghosthawk there as well.

Thank you for your work!
HIGHZUNG 8 Oct, 2022 @ 9:45am 
Hey Orbis nice work so far!
Can you add the function that enemy sam missiles can be detected as well?
Orbis2358  [author] 4 Oct, 2022 @ 8:29pm 
@TheSkyDust Code seems right, can you check your map screen?
TheSkydust 29 Sep, 2022 @ 6:45pm 
Hi Orbis! i pasted this on the laptop that will be the monitor whitch the ATC will work, ATIS works and sounds but when i try "Watch ATC Radar Screen" just... nothing happens i dont see any screen.

[this] call orbis_atc_fnc_addATCConsole;
[this, 2, 10] call orbis_atc_fnc_addRadarScreen;
Orbis2358  [author] 12 Aug, 2022 @ 3:34am 
@DRL63535 Sorry it's unlikely in near future as I don't have the sound files for A320
bilibililjz 10 Aug, 2022 @ 11:55pm 
Hi. Can you add A320 GPWS in game?
Aurora 10 Jul, 2022 @ 6:13pm 
fly high, kick firewill's full afterburner
Antedeguemon 10 Jul, 2022 @ 4:02pm 
any tips on how to break the sound barrier?
