The whole Amazon manual thing is just plausible deniability. Those two manuals are not enough to make a module. They are using every source they can, but saying they are using Amazon manuals to not receive un welcome attention from the government and accusations of using sensitive information. ED since being founded has no doubt accumulated a vast wealth of MiG-29 information from all over the place. But with recent developments of course they have to be careful when making a plane certain countries still use in active service or used until recently. They also don’t really read the forums. That’s for community managers and for them to pass on any info. Especially the English forums. And with MiG-29 team busy, community managers aren’t going to get every question answered with unfettered access.

I'd like to request the ability to adjust the NVG 'window' up and down. In options we can 'Night Vision Goggles Gain-Increase' and 'Night Vision Goggles Gain-Decrease' (which one cannot do with the ANVIS-6 and ANVIS-9 systems I've worked with), but we cannot move the tubes up so they don't impede viewing of the panel and/or glancing outside 'unaided' (which is a mechanical adjustment that is key to proper NVG use). One of the very first things I learned about flying with NVGs is to adjust the shelf height to allow clear viewing of the panel and good field of vision under the tubes 'unaided'. There was/is a mod that allows NVG adjustments that's almost a half-decade old (by Tacca). Two problems with it are a). It's a mod that shouldn't be necessary and breaks on updates, and b). it also allowed a full-screen NVG effect (which is a bit of a cheat). I understand helicopter night flying isn't the bread and butter of your sim. All I'd ask is controls to move the NVG 'window' (which looks quite good, I might add) up or down in the field of view. Thank you for your consideration.

whoops, thanks Draconus

+1.. definetely sounds like ASW..

I have the dcs hardcopy ring bound book for the black shark.

We probably just got tired repeating it. I can't believe you cannot drag and drop it anywhere and that the position is not saved in Saved Games for editing. It should be able to be resized too. And we should be able to edit the colors. The Kneeboard can be dragged around, while it's size and position is not saved too. When they made the Kneeboard be dragable and sizeable. They said the position and size would be saveable at a later that. That's like five years ago.

To me. Whataver zoom level and part of the map that is visible in the ME when I press "Save", is what is default visible to me whenever I open the F10 map when playing the mission.

Looks like new "hotas" type controllers will be on the purchase list, sure the old Thrusmaster Warthog will be fine for a while but if I get into this like I want to, I may be spending some $$$

TekConnect - DCS-BIOS Serial connection made simple COM ports changing? Unsure what's online? TekConnect handles it for you: - Visual status display - Works with ANY DCS-BIOS unit (TekCreations or not) - Option for ports to auto-connect - FREE - warranty not given or implied Get it here: https://github.com/tekcreations/TekConnect

Thank you for reminding me! Now I remember. I did test offline mode in November/December 2024, and at that time it was working very well. I can't test right now, as my computer died. Hopefully someone else sees this and tests. I don't remember what happened or what the solution was. To successfully tag someone, you need to type in "@" first. So I'll tag @BIGNEWY for you. This could possibly be the reason though, whole no one else has reported issues though.

Until just now I always thought this was a quadviews issue. its not. Even with quadviews off it still crashes. it might run just a bit longer on average but I guess its not a QV issue. I bet its not even a dcs issue any more. Will check some more stuff and let you know what I figure out. I had to extend my trial period so I hope I can figure it out now for reals lol

Hello, ED, I have a request for Halloween 2025. For Halloween, can you have the air crew personnel appear as skeletons and the landing field lights have the eerie green glowing pumpkins? It was done a few years ago and really enjoyed. This year, can the DCS team create something different? Along with the skeleton crew members, perhaps add some spooky ghosts and thirsty vampires waiting in the darkness to surprise unwary virtual pilots. Mike Force Team

Thanks for your help, Le Griffon. I managed to get all of this working. But I'm very disappointed by the awful colors in Quest 3. They're not natural. With the HP G2, the graphics almost looked like a photo, but now they look like a comic strip. Either Quest 3 is like that, or I missed something in the settings.

The crew of the AI MH-60 has been re-assigned Still very early WIP but she'll fit right in

If we are giving advice: I would say, Anytime anyone are experiencing an anomaly related to an aircraft, try other aircrafts (mods and non mods alike) to see if it's an isolated issue. Then, you disables mods and test if more research is required. Lastly, take the issue to the community to see you are experiencing a known issue or not - which in the case above, it is. You have to take a systematic approach to problem solving. Merely disabling mods isn't systematic as you may come to an incorrect concussion or waste time reinstalling the mods again just to test again.

The C130J has a full navigation database for each map. It has the airport specific procedures, airways, and other nav data for the time period that the map is representing.

Same error here. When AI using the plane all animations work but dont work when I use it. Is there a fix to this?

Thanks Buddy happy to oblige, and I love the awesome screenshots

Could not see this posted in the Wish List section. The addition of historical charts for major military airfields to allow for more precise PRMG/ILS approaches.

As Documented in the post above, the #3 Cat is shooting low. This will affect Any AC, including the ED modules. Heatblur's boat, with a low #3 Cat. How can this be an A-4E-C problem, or not be an easy fix, literally increasing a force value in a file and then recompiling. And you are? @IronMike Bowie

Hi, Both were tuned as instructed, Comm1 to Ch1 (243MHz) and Comm2 to Ch7(130MHz) - This issue is also present in Mission 4 where I am asked to contact the UAV to receive target information - there is only Jaguar in the menu choices. I would add that both these missions are Cold Starts, not sure if this is a factor but I’m sure the menus worked ok in the first couple of Hot Start missions Any ideas? Thanks

Buenas noches, en primer lugar me presento, mi nombre es Víctor y hace poco que me he aficionado a este simulador y unido a este foro. Hace poco que he empezado a aprender como funciona mi primer modulo (F5-E) y me he encontrado con que el módulo de mi primera campaña "Black Sea Resolve 79's", está toda en inglés y a veces no me siento cómodo ya que no me entero de que está pasando. De ahí me propuse crear una herramienta que mediante un modelo de IA, traduzca y vuelva a empaquetar las misiones de la campaña, de momento solo el texto, comunicaciones por radio, briefings, etc. Esa parte ya la tengo hecha y tengo una herramienta que puede trabajar con modelos públicos usando su API (solo he probado DeepSeek) con buenos resultados, a un coste de 35 céntimos las 25 misiones de la campaña que poseo y tardando unas horitas.... Pero como no estaba del todo contento con la traducción ni con el tiempo que se tarda siendo el proceso totalmente automático, quiero hacer "fine tunning" a un modelo local (funciona mucho mas rápido y se le puede entrenar, los resultado son espectaculares y en un minuto tienes una misión traducida y re-empaquetada) pero necesito muchas muestras de texto en inglés para traducirlas y entrenar al modelo. De esa manera puedo crear mi propio modelo especializado en traducción de DCS al Español, con un contexto claro y que no suenen raro algunas frases. Y aquí está el tema, como no puedo comprar todos los módulos de DCS, necesito colaboradores, a cambio les traduciría las misiones y cuando tuviera el modelo entrenado lo publicaría para que cualquiera pudiera usarlo junto con la herramienta, que no es mas que un script que se puede ejecutar en cualquier PC con un procedimiento al alcance de cualquiera. Si la cosa sale bien lo siguiente sería crear otra herramienta para traducir también las voces, aunque es algo mucho mas ambicioso. Espero que hay alguien interesado en este proyecto y me eche una mano pero también quiero comentar, que solo voy a aceptar a los primeros que quiera colaborar con sus misiones (.miz), ya que con una sola muestra es suficiente. El resto tendrá que esperar a que se publique la herramienta. Y todo esto aclarando que no se si es del todo legal lo que propongo y si la compañía DCS podría tener alguna pega. ¡¡A ver si alguien puede darme alguna indicación para este punto LEGAL antes de comenzar a publicar nada!! Saludos y buen vuelo.

I am surprised there is no mod support for Eastern airliners. The addition of a Tu-154, Tu-134, and IL-62 in conjunction with the CAM would really allow us to flesh out a peacetime 80's scenario.

P-51D-25 - Joystick/Keyboard & Briefing/Load screen image... gone. Just the mouse. Just the ESC and Pause keys. All other A/C are functioning perfectly. The default Controller tab for the P-51D, that was several scrolling pages long, like all the other A/C, is now a coupla mouse related lines. Loads normal in mission builder, routes/liveries/weapons load-out. But the mission briefing screen is the digital camo 'missing image', as is the mission load screen, instead of the P-51D 364th FS, 357th FG (C5) image. And then, run the mission, and only the mouse works, no joystick, and only the Esc and Pause function keys. Controller/keyboard serial numbers match the functioning A/C, and are regenerated. Have been working w/ the jets of late, so not sure if it was post or prior to either the latest update or F4U-1D release, both of which were installed during the jet mission building program. Have tried so far: - Start Menu DCS 'Repair'. - Uninstall/reinstall P-51D. - Uninstall/throw out P-51D folders/reinstall. - Uninstall/DCS Repair/reinstall. - Uninstall/move folders to Archive ships/planes added during the jet mission building program/reinstall. No joy. Like an important folder/file is missing - but the P-51D, as a prime and well used A/C, has never been subject to Drive Space 'Hanger' time, save the liveries, that have never been a problem, the ones used being in the user/liveries folder. Have not messed w/ the F4U-1D as yet, but is the next thing to consider. This is new, and very weird. P-51D - Dead Stick&Keyboard.trk Please Advise. Bowie

Think you mean mission 13. This is how it is done. Hope this helps. All my other campaigns have AWACS support where relevant. Not been requested on this one over the last few years, but if you think it would help, we will where relevant provide more SA support in these campaign missions, hopefully in next update or if not in the one after definitely
