Not dealing with the F86 or MiG15. I think there was an opportunity missed by not making the F5 Freedom Fighter version instead of the Tiger II we already have as FF module. The Freedom Fighter is closer to the F86 and MiG15 in age. And would have been perfect for the new Kola map. Might even have gotten it just to get the correct F5 model for Norway.

AI descent angle wrong calculated, which results in unable to fly through its end of descent waypoint. AI_descent_profile_BUG.trk

Can you turn on power on the TGP and Laser from the front seat only or does it have to be from the rear or both?

Not really sure what you mean. Where exactly do you see those oversaturated green? Latest development screenshots:

According to the trailer (the one DimSim linked above); the answer is no, same textures.

It's not a request for the map maker. Individual modules (maps, aircraft, additional assets, etc...) are individual IP products. Thus, this request would have to be made individually for each module. You also have the option to go to the "DCS 2.9"-section, and specifically to the "DCS Core Wish List" one, and make a general request there. If it becomes popular enough, ED could implement it on their modules, as well as inform 3rd parties of it (it's still a individual decision). It would be nice, of course, as well as many other implementations. However, it would not be anywhere high up on the to-do list. There are far more basic requests, which aren't yet processed. Still, head over to the above-mentioned section, and report it there.

Do you know which is the conector of the microstick pcb of the Cougar? It is a 6 pin male connector, JST for what i see, but i cant be sure if it is 1 mm pitch or 1.25 mm pitch. Or maybe it other type of conector?

There's a distinction when you extract zip files, as to whether it dumps all the files in the same folder the zip is in, or whether it creates a folder of the same name as that zip file to put them under. There can also be folders within the zip file itself, which I see Massun's rar files do have. So you likely created a folder in the folder like I just guessed.

At 20 sec into the Flaming Cliffs 2024 announcement video, we see the F5E cockpit. Experts may compare with the present to identify changes.

I'm guessing Kola's regular price will be $69.99 and early access 20% discount to $55.99 .

Well, this is shaping to be a fantastic year for DCS! The early release of the Kola map on 3rd of May, is thus only better. Finally more of Mother Russia!

The only program I set for all JDAMs is Auto - Step - N/T

Do you use T.A.R.G.E.T. scripts? See this thread (same symptoms): Another user had the same error, and many others. In this case, the RAM was faulty:

That would be awesome! Do you perchance know the differences between the FF F-5E3, and the FC F-5E? Probably something minor....

Я вот нашёл что-то типа динамической кампании в Сирии, на финском сервере, очень интересно, PvE, и пинг маленький. Практически каждый вечер там зависаю.

Too much belly-aching happening. I'll be pre-purchasing by early next week. I don't think I've ever been quite this stoked about an aircraft. Bring it on.

Repair done but just had a new CTD. Seems the same error. dcs.log

Kola Development Progress “The DCS: Kola map by Orbx will be released into early access on the 3rd of May 2024 bringing a new and engaging region to DCS. Based on the current day, with allowances for Cold War scenarios, the map covers more than 575,000 sq km of land and large areas of the Barents Sea and Norwegian Sea. The early access release will feature summer textures with the highest detail area stretching along the Russian/Finnish border from the Murmansk region of the Kola peninsula in the north to the shores of the Baltic Sea in the south. This area is home to the Russian Northern Fleet, the submarine pens of Polyarny, strategic air bases such as Severomorsk and Olegnegorsk, and several Finnish, Swedish, and Norwegian air bases, and road runways! We at Orbx are delighted to collaborate with experienced campaign creators including Baltic Dragon and Reflected Simulations to bring exciting campaigns to this map. Following the early access release, we will deliver major updates starting in June 2024. This includes winter textures and additional airbases such as Andoya, Bardufoss, Evenes, Vidsel, Kilpyavr, Alakkurti, and others. Many military installations and training areas across the Kola map will be further developed with improvements added to terrain detail based on high-resolution aerial orthoimagery. New cities and towns, more custom POIs and vertical obstructions, and complex industrial sites will also be added. We have recruited a large team of active DCS players to help with all aspects of testing, optimization, and prioritisation to help tune and improve the map.” Bye Phant

Short version. When carrying external fuel, set forward tanks off so only Aft tank is feeding engine. When Aft tank drops BELOW 240L, the external tanks are then empty and you can jettison (and open forward tank). Another way to say it: When AFT tank drops to 240L, a valve opens (auto) and External begins feeding Aft tank so Aft tank will show 240L until Extrnal is empty. Once AFT tank starts dropping under 240L, jettison Externals.

Has anyone done an F-16 red Ferrari DCS skin yet?

Sorry, aber was zum Teufel ist ein Kurbelflügler?

Just did some quick tests and at light enough weights VL was still possible, I was just, just able to hold a hover at FOB J with about 1000lb of fuel left, 2 empty fuel tanks, full gun ammo and a TGP...some of the time. Other the times the aircraft couldn't quite hold the altitude but would settle very gentle to the ground so no drama there either. Both needed full power and water injection though. With a few knots on the airframe to make it a rolling VL it was a lot easier, I would certainly recommend this approach through the campaign, at some points you'll be landing at higher altitudes so master the rolling VL .

Brilliant!
