In what way? Train Microsoft Speech Recognition Purchase and install VoiceAttack Download and add the free community driven plugin for VoiceAttack Setup VAICOM according to the manual Copy the VAICOM commands to the included VoiceAttack profile That's basically it. "Two, engage bandits" "Three, engage my target" Cheers!

First our Newcomers: ["M8rocket"] = { explosive = 2 }, --US, 18 kg 4.5-inch-rocket, ca. 13 kg warhead, 2 kg explosives, fragmentation ["HVAR USN Mk28 Mod4"] = { explosive = 3.5 }, --US, 5 inch 61 kg high velocity aircraft rocket, 21 kg warhead, 3.5 kg explosives, penetration, fragmentation ["Tiny Tim"] = { explosive = 68 }, --US, 36 inch 569 kg rocket, 227 kg warhead, 68 kg explosives, penetration, fragmentation over blast ["ASM_N_2"] = { explosive = 240 }, --WW2, US, radar-guided 850 kg ASW-glide-bomb, build around a 1000-lb-gp-bomb-warhead, The relevant lines from the splash-lua (hopefully complete ...) Discussion about a recent update dealing with the bombs A bit older with interesting hints on weapon-values in the lua-files by AeriaGloria: "When looking at DCS LUA warhead expl_mass values, also bear in mind that sometimes ED doesn’t always use the explosive weight, but uses the entire warhead weight as the explosive weight, this is done for M151 screenshot you posted and M229. This is almost always to make up for DCS not having fragmentation modeling." "Also, I said piercing has no value in DCS AFAIK. The cumulative field is for armor penetration. Cumaltive thickness is in meters of armor. And if armor it hits is less then cumulative thickness in size, then cumulative factor is applied. In case of S-8KOM, it’s .3 for thickness and 3 for cumulative factor. So if it hits armor less then 300mm in thickness, expl_mass is multiplied by 3 for total damage dealt" I won't subscribe his sentence here: "As far as I know, the piercing_mass figure has no effect in DCS. It seems to be related to true explosive weight in some way regardless of LUA figure for expl_mass." Hmm ... the German's WW2-bombs efficiency against somewhat hardened targets was always low compared to US or British WW2-bombs. German bombs have in common "piercing_mass = 1" - even the semi-piercing SD-models. While that variable for the Allied bombs is much higher and rises more or less reasonable with their penetration-capability. Just an educated guess, never checked it out here, consequently. https://github.com/Quaggles/dcs-lua-datamine/tree/master/_G/weapons_table/weapons/bombs Please be cautious with your invest of time. It's always sad to see engaged community-members drift into resignation just because DCS remains what it is.

Hopefully this gets looked at.

how are the chances it just came off and is not broken? Mine quitt today after 4 1/2 years of solid use.

I would love it. When I was in a squadron we did non-firing dogfights as well and just called out “guns guns guns”. With a feature like this we can do that in SP as well, practicing without the frustrations of getting shot down

Yes, I understand and it’s why I support this wish I do the same!

I programmed my stick to use a button and 1 HAT switch to open, navigate and sellect communication commands also, which is why I ask for this, I ordered VR headset also so having this on the stick is handy. Over time I might just move to voice activation software but that one is more tricky to setup.

That was it. Go figure. The only Mod i had was swastika and engine sound. I removed the engine sound mod and there's the drop tank. Thanks !

In the real world, when a GNS 430 is fitted to such an aircraft such as the MiG, isn't it more of a kluge? If you stick one in a Cessna with Bendix King radios, obviously it will allow tuning of both nav and comm radios as an alternative to the dials on the radios themselves. But these are Soviet era radios. In the real world, when such a device is put into some old Soviet aircraft, does that kind of integration with the nav/comm system actually even work? I always assumed that they just mounted it somewhere (or duct taped it) only to provide basic gps and show the pilot a convenient position reference. I have this device fitted to both the Mi-8 and the C-101. I never expected it to actually tune the radios, even though I know the device is capable of it when properly wired in. If ED makes a Cessna 172, then yes, I would absolutely expect it to do all of this stuff. Product description for the MiG-29 aside, is my assesment correct?

Назначается. Сначала открыть крышку, а затем...null

not sure if a bug or intended - in the past, when using post designate CCIP, upon pressing (and holding) weapon release, the pipper would stay "fixed" to the desired aimpoint (the location the pipper was upon pressing and holding WPN release). recently however, the pipper continues to move while holding the WPN release button pressed. is that the way it should be? Post-designate-pipper.trk

well...if one were to do it that way, you could place percentage ranges on an axis and map them as buttons...id have to refresh my memory on how to do it, but both virpil and vkb software allow you to do just that.

В описании РУС есть позиция, но в настройках управления она не назначается.

That‘s a tough one. I don’t have a collective and use just the throttle. Initially I inverted the Throttle for helicopters to mimic the pulling motion, but that totally messed up my muscle memory. Ultimately, long arm -> more power, short arm -> less power. That would be my recommendation unless you get a real collective. (Which you don’t need to have a blast with helicopters imho). Your pickup problem sounds to me as if you haven’t mastered the coordination between inputs yet. You can‘t stop doing one while adjusting the other. The more collective you apply, the more anti torque pedal you need to give etc. That‘s not a shortcoming, just a lack of practice. Try to apply a curve to the cyclic to make it less responsive around the middle position. Make use of trim (and check the different trim options in the special options). For all the helicopters we have in dcs, the cyclic must be pulled back (about half an inch) for vertical pickup. (and a quarter inch to the left or right, depending on the the direction of your main rotor). Trim it in this position before trying to lift of. Your necessary corrections on the Stick (depending on length) should be mm rather than cm…..

This mod doesn't include any additional weapons, and the template is from the standard version. It's a shame to install it.

Correct. It may skip.

Thanks for the video. In it, I can see the violent vibration of the stick. What I experienced was a bit different. When entering stall slowly and gradually, the stick would pull forward to decrease AoA. What I mean by this is the virtual stick in game. However, the hardware would stay in my hand pulled back all the way. So that should tell the software that I have pulled through the AoA limiter. But instead, my stick input at the max limit wasn’t registered, and AoA was decreased by the limiter, which also moves the virtual stick forward. now it’s possible that since I have pulled already hard to reach the limit of the stick range, the hardware forces are already maxed out with the stick in my lap, and therefore I wouldn’t feel the returning force (that is visible in the virtual stick). I will test this again. What I would expect based on what’s been said is that the max force required to pull the stick back before AoA limiter should be 17 kg less than after the limiter kicks in. This has to be downscaled of course for hardware limitations. I would still expect a difference in the forces required when I pull back without the limiter, vs when I push through the limiter, and ideally I would feel the returning force as well when the AoA limiter kicks in

An axis that steps through the knob positions?

Настроить кнопку в настройках, изначально она не задана. Здесь на форуме это уже обсуждалось неоднократно. Первые же англоязычные результаты в Гугле ведут на соответствующие темы. В руководстве в описании РУС есть позиция.

Modified for navigation

Yes it has stick pusher. Force only increases 17 kg when hit limit it’s not always 26 degrees, could be 15 if LEF are up. At different speeds it may lift stick forward for two degrees of elevator, or 15 (from Mach 0.45-0.72)

Bump

You will always see: post a question and i find the sollution myself. I read the log and saw that DCS was unable to open a zip archive. I went back into my Bitdefender and saw that i set the option "scan archives" to on. I turned that option off and DCS started.

Тогда вопрос следующий - как сбросить бак? Пробовал различные кнопки, сочетания кнопок, ничего не помогает.

What about the pilot in cockpit model ? Is a must for a lot of people in VR
