Mais la vraie surprise (je n’ai pas dit bonne ) est l’annonce de MAC : Modern Air Combat.
Pour résumer (car les explications d’ED sont assez .. brouillonnes) : MAC est une version très simplifiée de l’actuel DCS, orientée trés grand public. Version compatible DCS Wordl mais avec des limitations concernant les avions et les map.
Une version hybride qui arrivera cet automne .
C’est donc encore un poil flou mais nous vous tiendrons au courant des évolutions de MAC .

Pour finir la partie ED : la map Normandie 1944 et le module Spitfire ont de nouveau l’attention de ED (leurs acheteurs apprécieront enfin qu’on s’occupe d’eux..):
- Nouvelle version du Spitfire , ailes coupées: emports de bombes et de réservoir supplémentaire (enfin on va pouvoir rester plus de temps au dessus de a manche )
- Carte Normandie : aérodromes actualisés, de nouvelles pistes en béton pour certains, nouveaux effets d’eau peu profonde, de nouveaux objets comme les moulins à vent et les maisons dispersées, « des transitions plus harmonieuses » et des performances améliorées.

Du cotés des développeurs :
Heatblur Simulations continue de travailler sur son Tomcat en nous abreuvant de screens alléchants et de posts techniques prometteurs :
Aprés la série sur le RIO nous avons le droit aux travaux de recherches sur le comportement moteur :Forums DCS et sur l’influence des informations RWR : AN/ALR-67 par rapport à la position des capteurs (situés sur des parties mobiles) …
On va trés trés loin …..
Puis une petite surprise Heatblur Simulations travaille également sur un nouveau porte avions : Le « Forrestal » .
PA qui collerait parfaitement avec le F-14 😉 !!
RAZBAM
Pas mal de petites news en juillet, cela concerne l’ensemble des projets de Razbam : Mig-19, le prochain F-15E, la map Falkland, ou les avancées sur une mise à jour (impressionnante) graphique et fonctionnelle du TARAWA.
Cette dernière sera disponible gratuitement pour ceux ayant acheté le module Harrier…
Les autres auront toujours droit à la version actuelle. On peut deviner que ED fera de meme pour son pack « Premium Carrier ».
Les modeleur 3D sont donc bien occupés, les screens publiés sont superbes!!
Même si on se questionne parfois sur la nécessité d’un tel degré de modélisation (Stick du F-15E par exemples ).
Superbe non ???
VEAO
Le hawk bénéficie encore de correctifs :
Mises à jour du modèle 3D et des textures du cockpit, utilisation d’un nouveau système d’éclairage ce qui corrigera le bug actuel d’éclairage de nuit.

VEAO Hawk by night
Voila C’est tout pour Juillet, Rendez-vous fin Aout pour un résumé des news à retenir !!!
