Hello, I came back to DCS after a long break (a few weeks). After the last update, I have a strange behavior of the AV-8B: Landing on a runway is perfectly fine, but as soon as I have to land on a ship (whatever it is), I systematically have a DCS crash after the touchdown. Has anyone had this problem?

Answer to both is that I don't want to reinstall the software thats on it.

The button pressure cannot change anything, as the water injection is already activated at full throttle (is automatically activated at full throttle)... Without water injection, you should not reach 57.5 MP. But you reach the value, so the water injection is probably implemented The button is not a "turbo" button that increases the speed. It allows higher MP values by injecting a mixture of water and methanol. So if 57.5 MP is reached at full throttle, this only happens because the water injection has been activated. What happens in the P-47 when you activate the injection (with a button), happens in the F4U when you push the throttle lever all the way forward.

Correct, also when you guys start attacking each other, those are hidden. If you say Star Trek is better than Star Wars, those are hidden. Things like that. Stick to the first post. Even your comment is leaving out part of the story, and much of the story is not even out there. Once again, its all under a confidentiality agreement and within lawyers hands.

Yes, Apache manual is really great! Thank you so much. It covers all topics well explained and the integrated links to other related topics are very intuitive. It‘s my number one source learning and flying the Apache in DCS.

I dare to doubt that and will only believe it when you show me where they confirm this exactly. If it really only gets 54MP at 20k ft, then something is fundamentally wrong. At sea level, you can get 57.5 without any problems and without pressing an extra button. So if M3 really did implement it the way you think they did, there must be a confirmation somewhere from M3 (which I don't believe, because I don't see any change when I press this button at full throttle - how could I, since the water injection is already activated at full throttle), otherwise it is quite reasonable to assume that M3 implemented it realistically.

I use the ones for Virpil without issue, so my guess is no

Thank you Heatblur for adding the ability to set the full Link-4C address using the kneeboard. This has been invaluable for multiplayer use where the flight may be broken up among multiple 'groups'. Would it be possible to add a setting for the default Link-4C address (all four digits) and D/L frequency in the 'Aircraft Additional Properties' tab in the Mission Editor? The use case I have for this are 'backup slots' that I often include for players who are having issues (CTD, poor connection, etc.) and need to jump back into a game partway through. Since these 'backup slots' are air spawns the players do not get the option to configure these settings themselves. It would also allow mission designers to allocate addresses and frequencies ahead of time, lessening reliance on supplemental information (like custom kneeboard pages) and troubleshooting before takeoff (getting Link-4C to work requires very specific setup, it would be nice for newer RIOs if I could make this as easy as turning the system on). If allowing the full address and frequency to be preset in the Mission Editor is not feasible, the first two digits should be enough since the rest of the address and the frequency can be set in the cockpit. Thanks!

Warbird dumbo here, what is "ADI" in these contexts? It certainly isn't Attitude Display Indicator...

not yet, neither no time of those qualified people nor translators have no knowledge of avionics terms .... sad

Hi @MadMax3600, you can try my version of HDS with SAMPack_S-300_Series inside, it's working with the latest version of DCS. The only problem i have are the guns of the SA-22 Pantsir from HDS. After one of the old big DCS update, the aiming system and the recoil became corrupted, I tried some modifications of the LUA files, but the guns are still useless (AI or player). https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1QivT43h06V5uvpaVcxRfTNJJfu_Gtd9S?usp=drive_link

Just FYI Gents, I am not 100% sure how bad ITJ has been affected by the latest update, however it's not sounding good. Kandy is getting better, and we touched base briefly today via text. Sounds like one of the community members who was instrumental in assisting him on providing scripting advice has encountered some major issues with how ED is coding DCS now to protect their work if I understand correctly (not a coder or software dev). Sounds like some game breaking issues are starting to pop up or could with mod maker or mission developers, so please be advised you may encounter issues with ITJ. I would love to say we will fix them, but from what i understand, the way ED has structured the code now could possibly prevent us from correcting future issues. Hopefully ITJ continues to work, and I will test tomorrow. I did see Bignewy was reaching out to people for feedback, but I am not sure what that entails. More to come.

or the developer seeing the big picture, the reputational and tha financial situation, found excuses and decided not to release the module yet

@Slant I have also had this issue; it seems the 'Navigation Target Points' settings are not being applied to dynamic spawns. I am unsure if this is an ED Dynamic Spawn issue (which other aircraft use this tab?) or if this is something Heatblur can fix themselves.

Ok thanks folks.

Yep, that’s what I was thinking too.

Fair enough, maybe it was December that last was last update. I was more thinking they've had at least a couple of updates since Razbam have announced they weren't doing any more. Maps typically don't get the frequency of update that other modules do. They have stated before it's not an issue and the fact that they have updated it long after Razbam stopped doing any updates is a pretty good indicator.

I was checking the changelogs and I could be wrong on this - but this the last update on 12/24/24 on DCS log - DCS 2.9.11.4686 Anyway, I would be nice for the dev to chime on the forums and state that there are no problems with RB/DCS on this module.

You are a coding GOD cfrag!!!! I hope you take some well-deserved time off and return to us mere disciples - WE NEED YOU!!! ChuckIV

Why not multiple versions?

The Facts are on the first page, why do you always dismiss those ? and cherry pick the stuff Razbam released believing those to be factual ? Since you seem to believe Razbam in all of this, and try to come across as some sort of SME when dealing with contracts, care to explain why Razbam on at least 3 occasions since the agreement was allegedly signed late 2024, broke the confidentiality cause that went allong with said agreement? Razbam have leaked everything, including the C&D letters from ED, and yet, never leaked the actual contracts signed... why do you think that is? Why did Razbam not seek legal guidance from the beggining, instead use the court of public opinion? Not once has Ron Zambrano put his hand up and apologised to his customers aknowledging his wrongdoings You state you don't know the contents of the contract, yet you cosntantly comment as if you do.. You speculate every bit as much as 99.999% of the people here, and I include myself in this group. There's not much factual truth to your post either. FACT Razbam broke their contract FACT Razbam were issued cease and decists FACT Razbam breached the confidentiality clauses (on more than one occasion) FACT Razbam clearly did not accept the aggreement and continue to use the community as their weapon(s)

Because the autopilot doesn't have a route follow mode for the jet. The LAAP acts through the Stability Augmentation System which only has channels for Pitch and Yaw. There's no roll channel to be able to automatically make turns. "Path" refers to flight path. I.E. it'll approximately hold your velocity vector in place.

How do I refute something that is completely and utterly made up? You can't prove you are right either. You are just spewing out stuff you made up in your mind to be true with no way to prove it.

Anybody have a C-47 Template?

It's not the trim moves at a constant rate. Export script has variable update rate, but not devices in the aircraft. These are fixed update rates.
