DIS radar fields of view

Post by jeladi »

Can Prepar3d show radar fields of view? I am sending Electromagnetic Emission PDUs but am not seeing any beams on my display.

Hi jeladi,

Prepar3D does not currently natively render EE PDU's, however the PDK comes with an IObjectRenderer service that allows for primitive drawing in the 3D world (spheres, cylinders, boxes, etc). It should be possible to write a plugin to draw the radar fields if you are able to obtain the information from the DIS traffic.
