CV 90 MK.IV data and discussion

That info should be saved somewhere if you can, i think the old forum is about to be deleted (i think i saw something about that somewhere, not sure though)

There’s 2 reports for the same thing linked there, so one way or another they have the info.

@JUICYTITAN1011 i said BAE b isnt a reliable source as a joke but if youve spent even 10 sec looking at the multiple closed reports for the weight on the CV90 MK.IV, the mods almost always close them as BAE’s site isnt considered reliable unless its a actual Manual of said vehicle which is a joke that BAE themselves isn’t reliable according to the snail

Id say later, for me its fairly late but im available most of the time during the night when the West is awake. We should gather all the current bug reports and thungs that have to change and possibly pass them to a few of the mods to see if we can have them pushed to the devs. I personally believe we should expect this dev server to last very shortly so getting the MK.IV 30mm fixed before the DEV closes is the most important thing.

Well the new report is marked as having been added to the old one which is on the old forum that might soon disappear, so it might be hard to then use that info for a different vehicle. but perhaps not, i don’t know.

It’s mostly that websites generally aren’t accepted, (but sometimes exceptions are made). The general praxis is that it needs to be published works, so like pdf’s for pamphlets and things like that.

So it means we are screwed then. I honestly cant think of any pdfs for the weight on the MK.IV that arent just mini versions of the website

i’ll have a quick look now, i think i might have something, but if i don’t; i should be able to find something if i put in a bit of effort (which might be tomorrow).

Edit, will add as i find more:

I think that’s all i have, now time for dinner, then sleep lol.

ps. general tip when searching for sources; google the term you are searching for (and change it around and try different things if you aren’t getting what you are looking for) but add the “filetype:pdf” at the end, the results will only show pdf files with the search term in them. very powerful :)

I will try and make a bug report for the IRST function for the Mk.IV which is easier since there are live videos of its function also, but i am working until friday night so i should be able to make one for Saturday, will try tomorrow otherwise. Was there a newer bug report for KETF/ABM for the Mk.IV or do we need to make one?

could you plz make one for the KETF/ABM ?

Ok, we should throw all available sources in here so we can make it easier for whoever creates it, i will take a look at it during the weekend otherwise.

Does this statement hold any weight, considering who it is from?

the thing is tho that isnt the AA tracking built into the other commanders optic that’s on the adjustable mast?

Yes it does. I have had a prolounged discussion with moderators about this and we have shared documents left to right. The UTAAS is a modular sight and for the feature of IRST it needs an extension module both exterior (which can be seen on Danish and Dutch CV’s from time to time) and a module for the interior. The sight itself is a “Hybrid” search and track sight without, if i recall correctly. The computer can identify objects on the display for the gunner but the gunner need to put the reticle (aiming if you will) onto the target and continously lase it where the computer will automaticly lay the gun barrel. With other words its a hybrid system.

I was mainly thinking about the UTAAS sight and claims that all CV90s has basic anti-air capability

Awesome

Meaning they could decide to model this exterior module to CV90 mk.IV and add IRST function?

Since we don’t have this intricate system in game I think it’d be fair to add IRST as an approximation until it can be properly added. CV90s have been in game for many years now and it doesn’t seem like we’re any closer to functioning UTAAS hybrid mode as you call it

@ChefViken who do you normally PM to get your posts looked at? Id normally just ask WaretaGarasu since they are pretty good.

Yes they could add it as a module, wouldnt be that difficult but its more of a “do they want it”. Its also difficult getting hold of official documentation where i think is the main reason why its not implemented. Its not a question of “IF” it can use/have IRST its a question “if that model had/have it”.

Here are some interesting links.

I usually dont PM anyone, i typically write to them directly in PM instead of taking it in a public forum. I feel like you can have a better conversation that way :)

Me bug reporting that all Finnish WW 2 vehicles use the Swedish camos, i even say i dont want the Hikaristi on them and just the camo pattern.

Mod: instantly bans me for a month

I had to message Smin for an unban
