Ah, OK. First you need to bind Show/hide AI in Mi-24 pilot tab, then you need to open Mi24 AI Petrovich helper tab and bind those commands.

For some reason, a lot of the community that has joined the last circa 5-7 years are very defeatist in their approach to life. It's as if depression is the common theme going through and through. Let me make this clear; take it easy! Yes, I have been told that Ka-50 III pilot body, and naturally HUD (english language) are coming this year, but this is all subject to change. It makes me melancholic to remember times pre DCS, where you either flew Ka-50 or A-10C in separate environments that couldn't do coop. We were waiting for years, to finally have the ability to merge the two in what is today known as DCS. We were waiting even longer for some of the modules that have popped up ridiculously fast the last couple of years. Truth of the matter is that ED has to run a successful business in order to ensure long-term survivability of the simulator (hence why there is literally no competition on the commercial market, and relatively little relevant competition on the professional side). If you are grown up, then treat all the information you recieve with a buffer, understanding that certain things might pop up inbetween and ruin the plans. At the moment, I haven't heard of anything, so take it easy. There are still months left of 2025. If it doesn't happen in '25, then maybe '26 or '27. ED knows we want/need it, hence it becoming a standard introduction into every new module lately. Take a cup of coffee, and a deep breath. It'll be there before you know it.

^ All fine and dandy, but irrelevant in this case, as the one and only reason why the enigine quit in second video is the same as in the first one - MW/fuel selector on left side of the cockpit is down (fuel) position while it should be up (MW mix). By the way, manual doesn't say to check it, so even if he follows the manual to the letter, his engine will still keep quitting. The plane should spawn with selector up, so it's probably a controller binding issue.

The Soviets are, as it’s the reason SPO-15 was specifically configured to detect it in the first place

Hopefully now that the Iranian F-14s are officially gone, the US government will release its death grip on anything related to F-14D sooner or later.

besides AI tasking issues, AI aircraft have had KNOWN fuel management problems for more than a decade. Full throttle all the way, Bingo fuel, ejection, repeat. A quick alleviation would be on cold startups to delay wingman "instant startup", then waiting burning fuel while my INS aligns. ..or you could just fix the AI fuel management issues. Your choice.

I think that maybe just a demo video. my texture files are just autumn/ spring / summer from back in 2023

This is not only a very poor argument on the topic of this thread - it's not even accurate information.

4 months is apparently a short period of time from your perspective. That's fine. You aren't everyone. Ostensibly, we all paid for the Mirage, enjoy the Mirage enough to remain interested, and are wondering when the module is going to be complete. Perhaps the developers are so busy that even the 20 seconds it takes to say 'Hi' on the forum is just too much.

Like this one, from 4 months ago?

If you don't plan on buying a new PC for 2-3 years, I'd say upgrading to 32GB now is worth it. I know when I went from 16GB to 32GB the difference was very noticeable.

In fairness, most people probably are enjoying the first 3 installments, but are naturally curious what became of the 4th. I sure am. Like I said above, it's probably premature to freak out, but just like when you leave a message for a friend to get back to you, and they don't, you begin to wonder if everythng is ok. I'm sure you're aware there are popular concerns about a few other 3rd party developers who have stopped talking, and the last thing DCS players want is for there to be troubles with another one, because that might start to indicate a disturbing pattern within the DCS ecosystem. When a developer just stops communicating for no apparent reason, their silence starts to raise some eyebrows. All it would take to get ahead of speculation is an official statement such as "don't worry Mirage fans, all is well, so just leave us alone."

Can I please put forward a new request to modify the current Resource Manager listing. e.g. for weapons with are given two columns in the list of available weapons for an airfield. The first column is the name of the weapon, stores or similar. The next is the % available, defaulting to 100%. I'd love to add an additional column added with the year first introduced into use. DCS clearly has this data as we can use a date to filter and prevent use of he newer items. My request is such that we can configure the mission resources available in a more granular manner. For example, for the F18c, if I deny availability of Aim9x, Amraams, targeting pods and most guided weapons, it ends up vaguely similar to an F18a (no, I know it's not the same, but it's the closest approximation available in DCS right now). Clearly, I can already restrict weapons. The "opportunity" that I have is simply not knowing when a lot of items were genuinely available. If we had the year introduced, at least we could be vaguely accurate, without having to apply a blanket restriction.

ED understood the document very wrong. There was no "external rangefinder" as a device or whatever, don't invent nuisances. What's that is "target base rangefinder" aka you have to roll the wheel until sight mark becomes the same width as target wing span, like in 1-2 gen fighters, as a means of backup. It was decided it's not needed. As for elevation and range. It's needed for cases when you maintain radar silence and then got a vector on target and want to spend as less time from start of illumination to launch as possible to not let the target out of NEZ. You set elevation difference with delta H knob and on MiG-23 you rotated the throttle for "expected range" so when you flip "radar illuminate" your lock caret will be right on target, you press lock and launch. Target gets illum warning and then launch in 5 seconds. But. In MiG-29 you just use the TDC hat switch instead of separate rotary. In real 29 throttle rotary is very conveniently used to switch between sync and funnel gunnery modes in dogfight.

But my fps are mostly good - around 60-70 in multi and more in single like 80-100 but I got those stutters from time to time. Isn't it worth to buy more RAM? I heard that 16gb today is nothing for DCS.

SPO is designed to not react to friendly radar (SAMs, Fighters...), but in DCS all friendly radar are a threat ? I know that SPO can sometime do mistake (friendly as a threat) but it's all the time. In fact for me this SPO has no utility, or i am missing something. If at least it can do the difference between enemy or friend radar emission, i think it's a minimum. It's for the 2 modes (automatic & stock WP)

And other version of MiG-29 has toilet and hyper drive. Guys this is not a serious talk. If you have PRF vs Blanking timeline diagram proving your point please show it.

Hi, So if I understand correctly, the range management on FC3 was wrong and this wheel is not used for delta H in the real jet ? If it is the case I think a lot of people will be disapointed since it is one of the worst Delta H management solutions... This implementation creates major changes on antenna elevation angle at each tiny cursor movement, while the FC3 system was only bound to the wheel so completely independent and "linear" on the elevation plan.

Did not know about this, thanks!

Hi, In the Command/Communication Menu, none of the positions is yellow marked. I have checked Easy Communication, no forced Mission but mine settings, on ground, in the air, on F-15 migs-29 Su-27 Su-33, The Command Next Previous Select and Return are bound. I Open the Communication Menu with the "Communications Menu" command by default on "\". Can you Help what am i missing or doing wrong? Regards, Cezar

Yup, that's available from the "Adjust Controls" menu and works fine for me when a USB plug comes loose and DCS initially loses TrackIR. I once had an issue where DCS was the only game running okay; everything else crashed once every two hours if I got really lucky, and typically much more often. Maybe DCS makes a certain graphics call that triggers a fault in your card? Could be a ton of causes. Then I'll stop responding. Good luck anyway. In case you want to give it another try, you might want to look for a mod manager.

Wooow finally! For example.. I want to make the FC3 pilots visor animations working (up/down) The Argument number is 98 (for all Mig-29s, Su-27/33 and J-11 Wich procedure do I have to follow to keep 'em working?
