Engima’s Cold War Syria server update

Tricker posted to Twitter the new map for Enigma’s second Cold War themed server. Cold War Syria of course makes use of the DCS: Syria map and from the looks of the map layout is significantly bigger in airspace than the one that they used for Caucasus. In all there are 30-sectors to capture ensuring that folks have quite a bit of teamwork ahead to push that frontline.

A preview look at the upcoming Enigma Cold War Syria Server. Looks pretty awesome, and much more airspace to fly around than the current server, can't wait!@eagledynamics #DCSWorld pic.twitter.com/pzGhh4Zoqj

A preview of DCS: South Atlantic

YouTuber Pricklyhedgehog72 has a new preview video out showing off the DCS: South Atlantic map in development with RAZBAM. Although the map is not done yet, this is our most recent look at the map. It’s looking good!

Tucano and Strike Eagle updates

Two Tweets from RAZBAM’s Ron Zambrano show off the latest work by the art team. The first is the pilot helmet as seen from the cockpit. The original was 3D scanned while this version is the highly refined version used in the sim.

The second tweet shows off the detail work on the ejector seat for the A-29B Super Tucano. Still very much a work in progress but sporting impressive details.
