I'm very sure that nobody can be bothered, but I wonder what it would take to bring back or re-release the Jane's games. The whole Jane's Combat Simulations brand must have been a weird and probably(?) expensive license for EA to maintain.

Working on a WSO system. The lines tend to cut off early but that's just unity's recording system being silly. Currently using TTS as a placeholder, but I plan to have human recorded male and female options for it. Roughly 200~ voice lines.

Happy #screenshotsaturday! I've been working on improvements to the aircraft AI to make them more responsive to incoming missiles. It's still a work in progress but I'm pretty happy with how challenging they've become. #indiedev #gamedev
Allied and enemy planes now make better use of their throttle and brake when avoiding obstacles, so they can get a little closer to the islands and still have enough reaction time #gamedev #flightsim
New Dogfighting just dropped 👀 #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday
to me it's kinda wild that they had "modern AAAA video game" look and feel so figured out 21 years ago. to my eye the kinetic energy and composition of a third person big budget game has not changed from this in two decades.
Obsolete Sony@obsoletesony.com · last yr.Project Big 2005. PS3 dreams were made of this.
Aaaaand back to #NovaSquadron UI. The main menu goes shwoop woop now. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday
Added mouse aim. Until now the game was really only comfortably playable with a gamepad or HOTAS. Now it's got a very familiar mouse steering!

back when I used to mod DCS world I added Anomalocaris to it as a way to learn the tools.
Even though I think this is a Very Bad Idea, I spent a day throwing together a prototype. It's an ultra-basic Ace Combat style flight model with an ultra-basic rendition of a radar. However to target the radar (and notionally use an AMRAAM) you need to manually cursor lock while flying.
Why485@why485.bsky.social · last mo.My hypothetical "practical" example was that to use a radar guided missile like a Sparrow or AMRAAM, you have to manually cursor over a target on a little radar window and lock while flying. With a RIO though, you simply press a button, and the RIO selects and locks the target for you.
The AI slop Jester Wheel in the $50 B(U) F-14 upgrade is so embarrassing. Allegedly it's just a placeholder but that only raises more questions.
