I've been away for a while (business), neither have I heard anything on this topic from ED. That said, having skimmed through the technical manuals (this issue was raised before), I don't find anything that should be in any way sensitive. Since we are getting IFF (which has been the most sensitive subject), I wouldn't worry about the above mentioned. I'll check with with RU-devs when I get the chance

Following a full mission in movie format with developer commentary really helps highlight details that often go unnoticed in regular flights. It makes sense to see not just the technical side of flying, but also the reasoning behind each choice during the mission.

I'm also very interested if all the emergency panels will work in the future. Hoping for a response.

Товарищи вирпилы, пожалуйста пишите об ошибках и багах в этой теме. Хотелось бы структурировать ветку по МиГ-29А.

Hey. You’re really grabbing this problem at the wrong end. It’s been a bug with the F-14 forever and you should be pushing Heatblur to fix it. What do you mean by splitting it up? You can load any missions from the menu. btw a workaround is that you load dcs, load any tomcat mission, switch to the tcs, then load Mission 12

I concur this is extremely poor design, game breaking. At the moment, the only way is to use wp as usual and program a dtc for the player aircraft. With 6 points max, it is quite easy. The dtc could be populated with the ME wp and airports so you can select which to keep,

So it seems, but it was with the resolution set to 1024 (personal preference: I’d rather have no mirrors than pixelated ones). Before the restart of DCS that was apparently needed for the new mirror options to work properly, turning on mirrors cost me 1fps. When I tried yesterday, they cost me 10fps, the sequential rendering didn’t change anything. So I turned them off again. They did look good at first glance, but the performance penalty wasn’t worth it for me. I hope that when we get Vulkan (if I’m still alive by then) there will be enough performance headroom to enable them again

Тоже не очень разъясняет, зачем было пихать пульт с тремя кнопками подключать к каждой светосигнализацию, и т.д. если положения у механизации всего два.

Your log is showing the below error message which has caused issues for a number of users. Can you rename your Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor folder to MissionEditor.old and start DCS again. If this still fails then attach another log file. 2025-09-20 00:44:27.794 ALERT LUACOMMON (Main): Error: GUI Error: [string "./MissionEditor/modules/me_news.lua"]:146: bad argument #2 to 'date' (number expected, got string) GUI debug.traceback: stack traceback: [C]: ?

Are there server issues in respect of latest patch download to Hong Kong have been able to get past 2.3MB download speeds despite my fast broadband connection and everything other download is working normally ? the issue remains today first time I have experienced this downgrade in delivery performance Any comments welcome?

@BIGNEWY @NineLine Gents, you can see my short video below explaining, but after some OBS adjustments, I have found there is no reason to have an option to remove the helmet or HMD in VR. OBS OpenVR plugin had a new release version less than a year ago and I downloaded it to see the improvements. It took a little leg work to adjust the image in the recording screen, but I think I just about have it on the money (video below). Appreciate all the hard work. The recording in VR is looking really good again. For those who have been asking what I use when recording in VR, it is OBS with the OBS OpenVR plugin. Link below for the plugin. Very easy to install. OpenVR-Capture | OBS Forums

You have some files which could (possibly corrupted) potentially be a cause. The below stacktrace has been identified from a number of issues raised by people: 2025-09-19 13:39:59.035 ALERT LUACOMMON (Main): Error: GUI Error: [string "./MissionEditor/modules/me_news.lua"]:146: bad argument #2 to 'date' (number expected, got string) GUI debug.traceback: stack traceback: [C]: ?

Can you please rename Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor to MissionEditor.old and start up DCS again. There are a couple of other issues from your DCS log file: Please use the bin\DCS.exe instead of the bin-mt\DCS.exe. They are both identical, but bin-mt will be going away in the future. Disable Core Parking. You can do this using the ParkControl software.

That answers the IFF portion and I am aware of the gci systems coming in the future too, however im very interested in the emergency systems.

Great catch, I will report.

I really do appreciate you even answering, I was able to figure it out and its working perfect.

Hi, thanks for this report. The unfortunate issue with a report like this is that there is really nothing to show what was going on here. You cannot program a complex system like this based on storytelling, while it might be helpful to back up documentation, on its own it is not really helpful with out all data points to program or change the SPO-15. I will pass this along to the devs, but I believe there is not enough here to support anything when the system programmed here was based on actual documentation that we have. Thanks.

Hi, this is already reported, thanks!

Не работают внешние виды при просмотре трекакогда пофиксят?

The F14 bug where the TCS and the LANTIRN are blank persists. You can't work around it by pressing fly again because it loads the briefing. Is there a way you can split these mission up so that you can load the mission from the menu and therefore when you hit fly again the LANTIRN will work?

Great! I usually recommend renaming the folder instead of deleting it. Backups are great though!

From my, admittedly limited, experience with the ME and Campaign Builder, I assumed that that was their mission statement.

The kneeboard images are not visible in Mission 7 because the images are placed directly in the mission's KNEEBOARD folder instead of the KNEEBOARD > IMAGES subfolder. I resolved this by extracting the images from the mission file and placing them in my C:\ > users > username > Saved Games > DCS > Kneeboard > F86F Sabre folder, so I could fly the mission.

Mirrors: Mirrors have a wider field of view, however they still can't be angled correctly. Engine: The engine still overboosts at full throttle with ADI turned on. This is contrary to the POH, which gives no indication or warning of overboost occurring EXCEPT if the supercharger gear is changed while at high manifold pressures and without reducing throttle first. Taxiing: As others have already noted in the dedicated threads, the aircraft can still be incredibly difficult to turn on the ground; even applying one wheel brake tends to cause the entire aircraft to stop, rather than rotating in place.

These are great! Thanks for doing this!
