Yes, sure, BALT logic is kept unchanged. And here's the BlackBox gauge with new RALT sound added. Just unpack this zip into your SLUDGE Panel folder, confirming replace.

--- Quote from: Razgriz on August 21, 2010, 04:32:16 am ---J.R., about the TCN,
Your TACAN center is radiating out of the center of the model, which is behind catapult 2 somewhere in the hanger.  You can find this easily in the SDK or using a program, but that isn't necessary.  Now, IRL, the TACAN will be radiating out from the antennas on the tower, where the radio equipment is.  So, it isn't as accurate as you portray it.  It is accurate to the normal person, but for me or Sludge, the TCN isn't the level of accurate that you describe.

Well, I know where the TACAN is radiating from because I put it there ;D And it is precisely from the center of the TACAN antenna as shown in the picture below. The HUD is showing the slant range from the aircraft to the antenna, which is just what the real one is showing. In the picture the distance happens to be 56 meters which is 0.03 n.miles, which rounded to the nearest tenth is 0.0 and not 0.1 !

Thanks for the photo, great explanation.  I recall we had exchanged info on this TACAN location long ago testing the 1st HUD before release.  Can't recall if the comments were in emails, PMs, or postings ---- or all three, lol. 

The photo defines the location clearly.

Serge...

Thanks my friend.  Already included and working well.

JR...

Not enough thanks to go around for your solid work.  As soon as I get the new EG Smoke effect done, Ill work to get the new Sludge released with all your inclusions.  Glad to have you back.

Later
Sludge

JR,
There's one thing that really needs to be fixed - a flashing recovery arrow. Here's an exerpt from A1-F18AC-NFM-000, stating that the arrow is steady.  ;)
