DCS: AH-64D | TSD Points 

With every video on the Apache, it gets deeper and deeper. Eagle Dynamic is taking things up to another level with this module. Bravo

A week after release: Everyone flying around brassing up targets and popping off Hellfire missiles. Me: Still sitting on the apron heads down in the cockpit watching Wags videos. 😉

Eagle Dynamics and Wags...thank you for developing an outstanding simulation program. I always look forward to the upgrades in your creations and, I cannot wait for the Apache to become reality. Thank you again for everything you all do for all of us simmers. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

Apache will yield many hours of study! Thanks ED! You are the best!

I can’t wait for the English version of these tutorials! 👍

This is going to be a serious brain challenge Amazing work by ED 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

i cant wait! i wish i could make a cinematic video for this beauty already! keep them videos coming!

Great video, already preordered. Hope there will be ally of training missions. This module needs it. Thanks!

The amount of detail in every aircraft and especially this one is insane! Creating points/navigation. Meanwhile, I'm over here: Haha shoot missile tank go boom.

Another excellent video Matt. Thank you for the very detailed presentation. Kind regards Nick

This is going to take a while to learn. Awesome!

It turns out I'm an apache junkie!!!! I have been getting desperate waiting for my next hit so thanks Ed! Have watched all these videos time and time again and can't wait for my first cold and dark!

super fun the videos! ... great stuff coming

Great details on this mod guys, thanks!

I'm glad you are doing these videos Wags, reading the dash 10 on this bird is giving me a headache

With those helicopter action, I hope to see more infantry improvement. - less precise shots - no more "detection bubble" - add recoil to those ak47 - better animation - suppression... - some more realistic soldier (with backpack and stuff) - some Insurgent units as well

Insane detail level. This module looks difficult, even more so than the A-10C II.

Tutorial and training missions will be awesome..

So cool. Love it.

My Christmas wish is that the Apache is a surprise in tomorrows patch :)

Imagine driving in triple a and you see this hovering between 2 buildings and a smoke trail heading your way

Looks like it's going to be a great module! Incredible level of simulation. I wonder what ED will present for 2022 as new module

Beyond excited that this iconic helicopter is coming to dcs; the only other apache sim that exists is Jane's longbow 2

Pre purchased 😁👍❤️

Ну всё теперь не заблудимся! ))

Will we have the functionality to add WP/HZ/CM/TG points in the mission editor?

Imagine a world without eagle dynamics.

The level of training the actual pilots achieve is absolutely mind boggling! 😳

Nice ! can't wait for it sir !

Godamn Wags, it looks like you guys are really going to pull this off. I'm probably going to end up buying a second Apache on a separate account..

Uhhhhhh..... Any chance of an early release of the manual? Moving the release for the Apache back to late January means that if I start reading now I might have worked out what on earth is going on in this video. LOL Merry Christmas ED!!!!

I just figured out that "AE" is no longer a valid Target (TG) point but is now an enemy Control Measure (CM). So if you are having trouble entering an identification, make sure you check the abbreviations for the correct category.

Nice

Re: The amazing amount of such highly reliable geographical data for the TSD!! I'm curious as to the origins of such accurate info in the database of coordinates, especially the elevations!?!?!?!?....... there was some incredible amount of RADAR mapping by the Space Shuttle missions from which a (very very) highly accurate model of the entire planet can be created....... to some extent obsolescing by orders of magnitude existing technologies such as Defense Terrain Elevation Data, Digital Elevation Map, etc. in terms of resolution and accuracy. In my professional experience with coordinates and their elevations, we often had nothing more than a county monument post..... about 3' tall x 6" x 6" with plaque on top, used by land survey crews to establish a benchmark from which to shoot bearings/distances/elevations, or we interpolated by hand :) As "only and always", Your Wagness, superb work!!!

By the time i learned all the buttons and functions the conflict will be over 😂 so looking forward to it ...

Will it be possible to add these in the ME or only in the helo?

So how long till we get to gun and hellfires videos. Glad to see it coming along

I can imagine every server FULL of Apaches this week! :P

Is the wind info on the TSD page the direction from or to? I see the wind on the PERF page and it's the reciprocal value. Which is from and which is to? Thanks.

First daddy wagner

Selecting TG in the add list and typing AE now results in a flashing KU. You have to select CM now to enter AE however the result is an invisible point that does not show the armor symbol

Please tell me how to make a point of attack from the pilot's seat using the co-pilot's manual

Hi Mate, Do you know how to get that "Fly-to cue"? I have created the WPs, the RTE, did a "dir" to the first WP but never seem to get that cue.

game changing I thought I had to kneeboard this shit every time xD

These videos are quickly getting to the area of "the helicopter knows where it is, because it knows where it isn't" territory. If you know what I mean.

@7:44 you place an E(nemy)A(rmour) on the map. This is of the type "Enemy control measures". I expected an enemy tank to be a Target. Can you explain what the difference is between a target and a control meansure ?

What does Matt say when he gets home to his family ? ... right.... hey family here is Wags from Eagle Dynamics. 😄😁✌️ He is our star 🌟

5:20 "Targets and Treats". I mean, they're not wrong I guess!

I need to quit my job to ever become master of some of these modules.... :P

So serious question I'm having issue with, how to use the TSD cursor and how to possibly bind the cursor (if you know) to an XBOX thumb stick? I'm brand new to DCS.

cool

So intense, it'll be a welcome addition and change the DCS battlefield for increased lethality!!!

Great info, can you add target grid using the KU while patrolling ?. For example when you patrolling over somewhere in Syria or baghdad and the command radio you a grid coordinates.

Just out of interest, why are there only 300 rounds of gun loaded? If for the Robbie tank, I always see the Apache in these videos with it installed, so will we be able to add and remove Robbie tank on launch?

I pre-ordered this game and got vaccinated three times in order to be alive until the release date so please do not postpone it any more

I'll likely take this question to forums, but I wonder if it's normal when switching map scale for the underlain map to vanish? I'm on a 3840 x 2160 display with NVIDIA 970 video card....... dunno if that's at all relevant, but considering the technology behind the TSD I'd expect it'd handle the scaling much better.

blimey thats bloody complicated

Only one word needed here. MOIST!

If I want to make a tank symbol I just created, a nav point on my IHAADS, can I do that?

Easy peasy

wags how can you make it so that the ku enters in mgrs and not in lat long?

I hate to be that guy but.. is there a typo @5:16?

Not sure why, but this video seemed to confuse me a whole lot more than the other videos. I mean it was all logical, and followed it, but a few attempts of watching to pick up the basics of what he said Thanks for the porn Matt

I can't stop giggling like a schoolgirl every time you say CAQ

Anyone noticed the “L” hellfires on the stores page? Shouldn’t we only get “K”s on release?

Well, I guess AH-64's manual is going to be total of 500 pages long including 200 pages describing TSD functions :)

when does it release

i bought it for Thanksgiving. Should i be able to play it now? I'm on beta.

Extremely impressive job of ED coders, but it looks like man would need to focus on this only one aircraft exclusively and train/study hours every day like real life Longbow Apache pilots do to be at least decently proficient. Earlier helicopters like AH-64A or AH-1G/S were incomparably less complicated.

LATE January? Oh, great...

mmm

Topmoumoute

After 7 Minutes my Brain got a fatal Exception Error: Brain Memory full ! 🤯

Hi.

"Toto, I have a feeling we're not in the alpha model anymore." 😕

Show me the Gunner controls please Matt, don't blue ball me

Hey Matt, I wanted to point out that your thumbnail doesn't seem to depict the AH-64D, identifiable by the dome on top of the rotor.

Hi พี่ใหญ่หรือiss มีคำแปลภาษาฉันด้วยใช้แน่แน่ Hi

how to f*** move the cursor? can you pleaaaase make a video, where you describe and instant show the control settings, what to bind?

too bad you guys cant slap the APKWS from the A10C on this bad boy

First :)

This is getting very serial.

Uhhhhh….what? I lost you about 10 seconds in. It’s like walking into math class after missing the last 2 weeks

We should have been flying it by now but let's wait for the sake of quality.
