Issues to be fixed shortly: | |||
* The first time the user change the view (ie. by hiting "v") there is a 10/15 seconds pause. | |||
** This seems to be due to the liveries textures. Removing the Livery choice and all associated entry in the -set file doesn't change the delay. Then reducing and flatening (remove alpha channel) the main texture f16.rgb from 2048 to 1024 px reduce the delay to 6/7 sec, then flatening the transparent logo texture f16-trans.rgb reduce the delay to 3/sec. | |||
** Solution: switch to PNG textures, remove transparency on logos or even remove logos. Use a different mapping layout with 4 x 1024^2 textures instead of 1 x 2048^2 texture. Optimize surface usage in the textures, flaten textures as much as possible. (see much more complicated and detailled f-14b which doesn't suffer delay) | |||
TDL FDM: | |||
* Startup sequence | |||
* Main U/C is above ground. | |||
* Vibration when accelerating on the runway for takeof. | |||
TDL Outside | |||
* flaps are in wrong position and can't be triggered. | |||
** that's because the f16 is flight computer controlled, so this is correct and NOT an error. (this to be moved in flight documentation) | |||
* pilot's shoulder patch is empty. (remove ?) | |||
* engine turbines do not rotate (is it useful ?) | |||
TDL Cockpit and systems: | |||
* HSI 3d model and textures. | |||
* internal/external lighting panel. | |||
* FMD's buttons pick animation. Define a logic in the FMD interactivity ? | |||
* ICP better texture. buttons pick animation. Define a logic in the ICP interactivity ? | |||
* HUD modes: | |||
** A/A mode | |||
** Basic nav mode (those could be a first step in order to provide usability in short term) | |||
Sounds: (Low priority) | |||
* Establish a list of all sounds that can be produced by the F-16 and its driver: | |||
