I recently picked up a few jets from Deimos Inc. Among these were the modern G39, SU-57, Mig-29. I enjoyed them mostly in FS 20 and was excited to see the “enable” option in FS 24.
They are a nightmare to say the least. For starters, both the G39 and SU-57 have missing canopies. The HUD on the SU-57 never shows up and other avionics are either black or really dim.
The HUD and avionics on the G39 are SO dim that you can’t read anything on the HUD and other screens. Also, no canopy on the aircraft??
The nosewheel steering is not working on the G39 and SU-57 after a cold start. I also noticed how the afterburners on these aircraft look like a dull and grey charcoal colour rather than a bright orange colour. There’s also no afterburner signature whatsoever coming out of the nozzle.
Has the developer not had a chance to properly tweak these aircraft for FS 24? Is there something Asobo needs to do for the Deimos aircraft to run and look right?
I’m just really confused and for now; had to disable all three aircraft in FS 24 as a result.
I would really like some insight from the developer, Asobo, community, or anyone from the mod team maybe who can explain what seems to be the issue here.
I also have aircraft from Top Mach, IFT, DC Designs, etc. they are mostly working as expected and have given me no issues.
Maybe the problem is not with the planes but with the sim itself (we all know how catastrophic MSFS2024 is for the moment) and Deimos is waiting for the various sim updates to be released before adjusting anything in his planes ?
I’ll follow you on that. I also disabled the Deimos birds from my hangar for the moment, hoping for a future update of the sim (or the birds, or both, who knows?..). We can only wait
Would love to see how these planes look and perform once the store is fully operational. I really enjoy these delta wing and modern stealth fighters. It would be so cool to have everything looking and functioning as intended, perhaps, even the possibility of usable weapons hint hint.
Jörg announced MS changed their policy of no weapons to visual weapons allowed on marketplace products. So am really looking forward to the wingtip misiles on the G39.
Functional weapons remain not allowed. At least in the marketplace.
Right. I just reinstalled MSFS '20. I can’t get the weapons to show on the G39 even though I’m increasing the payload scale incrementally, nothing happens. Does the developer need to update these planes for the weapons to show?
Same for Mig-29, Felon, and other Deimos aircraft? No weapons yet?
I’m sorry, I don’t follow this or don’t understand. I’m on Xbox and I did not need to download any add-ons for the Tomcat or F-35, for example. The developers updated their products and I then had the ability to add cosmetic weapons.
Sorry I thought you were playing on PC, hence my recommendation to download and install the necessary mods to make the weapons appear on Deimo’s planes.
But if you are on XBox, then you have no other choice than waiting for the next updates that Deimos mentioned above.
Be informed that currently, the weapons on Deimos planes are purely cosmetic, they cannot be fired. I don’t think Deimos has any plans to add “functional” weapons to their planes.
Oh I can live with that, as long as I can see what the weapons actually look like on the Grippen, Felon, or the MIG-29 e.g. which has been one of my favourite cold era fighters of all time.
Hello, thanks for the weapon update.
When i am choosing the G39 as wingman/wingmen in airshow assistant…there is always SMOKE on …can you fix this issue.
I just wanted to let the developer know that the weapons look amazing. Only two or three variety but I suppose you can’t have it all. Great plane, now looks even better with some menacing weapons to show, haha
Only a matter of time now before MS lets us fire off guns, missiles, and bombs.
Perhaps, we’ll see a new line of updates for all fighter jets from different developers to let us learn the various weapons systems.
