Eurofighter Typhoon - Germany's Best Fighter Jet

What is one cycle… is it whole scan from top to down, is it bar. What is it.

Whole, let’s say that the search has 4 bars, then it is the whole 1-2-3-4

Awesome. So now that y’all have found it to be non-smokeless, why do we still see smoke coming out of the Eurofighter? Here is the bug report, I would hope that this will be fixed as expeditiously as y’all have “fixed” the non-smokeless L/I-1.

imo its fine that they remove the smokeless engine… IF would they buff the IRCCM at the same time

iirc 9L/i uses track suspension while the 9L/i-1 uses gate width

I always thought that the period is the amount of time in seconds taken to do a complete scan. Granted it’s been a while since I poked around in the radar files, but I’m sure that’s how it used to be.

Because these are two separate issues? Im not sure why you think a fix to a missile would somehow change the exhaust of an aircraft.

i am thinking, that since there was a mountain of evidence for this missile being smokeless, and that it was fixed incredibly fast. 9L/I-1 was introduced on the dev server (what like a week ago…?)

A report made about the same time, with arguably an even bigger “bug”, with 41 “Same Issue” gets Accepted, and then nothing from it?
Smokless engine for the brand-new plane seems like it should be on the top priority list, no?

How important to the devs was the 9L/I-1 being smokless or not? To the players, it seems that this was made TOP priority, seeing how incredibly fast y’all fixed it. Was there a bug report on it? Did y’all find some document somewhere and decide to use it? Did a player find and submit it?

I thought too, bud when i threw it in video, yes its cut manually but i took it from moments of start and end of scan.
Its 3,18 seconds ± tenth
i skipped double top/bottom bar and both of them are fully scanned once.

Well, yes. I just overly complicated it.

We seriously need that bug fixed ASAP… it literally killed captor.

It didnt kill captor, captor is alresdy pretty trash in-game with or without the bug. Anything that is even in the same ballpark as the Su-27’s radar should be considered one of the worst radars in-game (at top tier).

Priority track would “fix” the issue of not getting to the target on time (would refresh on every bar) but it wouldnt fix the issue of the radar being a slow piece of garbage at actually aquiring targets its not already tracking.

I think we are all just VERY confused that players fought for a new, domestic armament to be added. Fought tooth and nail for months to get it. We get it. A week later its removed, cited from seemingly nowhere, after numerous players submitted mountains of sources stating it was smokeless, and replaced with a missile the jet literally didn’t use.
You have now opened it up to “akschually Ger EF2000 can’t use 9M” reports, followed by weeks of you or another mod saying “balance reason.”

Would love to see the bug report with the source saying it was smokeles, dont have to show the source, just say what it is :)

I think it was an internal tech mod report

there is no interleaved mode and high res SAR doesnt need a high scan speed

Internal investigations on 9L/I-1 have been ongoing for some time as far back as the F-4F ICE where it was called into question then. There were considerable calls last week for a smokeless missile, and whilst the matter of the 9L/I-1 was not fully confirmed, it was issued in response to feedback with 9M always as a fall-back just in case. The devs now have conclusive evidence 9L/I-1 is not smokeless, so the transition to 9M was done today.

All Eurofighter reports have bene under investigation and review, primarily ones with flight performance / radar performance taking a higher priority over Smokey engines.

Got a source saying that CAPTOR-M cant interleave? I’ve seen multiple that say it can

I mean, it did. Without that stupid bug, Top bar would be refreshed every ± 3-3,7 seconds. Now, its doing it in roughly 8.
this would be one scan and then it would go again from bar 1 to 4. Now due to all repeating, doubling two bars, its killing it. It will actually become good radar. Great scan volume in decent time with decent refresh rate. Stuff like F-15 is limited to two bar in 60°.

Thank you.

Absolutely, since they didn’t add IRIS-T or Meteor, the German EF2000 would’ve been stuck with regular 9Ls, which we all know would’ve been disastrous.

Do you employ Sherlock Holmes on your team? Pretty wild a player-base this size, would not have been able to find the source y’all found.

Considering that’s all of them… Is it not just a simple EJ200_engine_smoke == false ?
Are you waiting for more sources? If so pelase let us know so we can get to looking, but I think the ones provided were adequate, no?

So uh, PIRATE on German EFT when? Seeing as the PIRATE was/is tested on domestic demonstration aircrafts as well as “export” variants?

Bit of a /s on this one, but seems like a pretty bad standard to set, tho at this point it just seems like gaijins just doing whatever and historical accuracy or any semblence of has gone out the window.

The exact reason that was used to (rightfully) deny the German EFT its PIRATE IRST is now being used to justify the Rafale F3R not only the best HMD in-game, but also an extra 2 missiles.
