Not only does this aspect have a long way to go, I'm not really seeing it getting much better, even compared to the old days. Finishing a campaign mission still boots you back to the main menu (as opposed to loading up the next one, as is the industry standard), the briefing UI is clunky at best and neither especially powerful nor immersive, there's no way to include custom post-mission debriefing text, nor a way to make any customizations to the campaign completion screen (or even replace the music). Here's a few suggestions that would help: 1. Better briefings. A "slideshow" with large format graphics and rich text below the graphic. For DC, it could use a few (handmade) slides with spaces for DC engine to insert things like target names and callsigns. 2. Custom debriefing in similar vein, with the ability to hide or show slides according to mission logic. 3. Ability to play a video clip before and/or after a mission. 4. Custom campaign intro and outro, in the same vein. Since this would be a large UI overhaul and probably include significant dev effort, you could start by opening the campaign completion screen up for people to insert something other than the generic congratulations (which sound especially silly when the campaign was purely a training one). Good, immersive UI is a big part of the game aspect. I'm not asking you to hire Mark Hamill to do a Wing Commander 3 level of immersive environment between missions (that said, old space games could be great for inspiration), but it could be a lot better than it is now.

I don't really want a Flanker. I mean, yes, I do, but not right now. I want something that is appropriate to fight my Phantom II or my Mirage F1 in the 1970s or early 80s (obviously they can fight each other). There is the MiG-21, but that is so out of date, I almost don't consider it viable anymore. The MiG-19 is never going to be updated and will probably break. Was looking forward to a MiG-23, but we know what happened with that. Maybe someday we will have a MiG-17.

Same issue here. Both WHOT and BHOT modes are blurry. It occurs since the last DCS update.

We can debate this for hours. With this reply, I’m done posting in this thread because our extended discussion here is not fair to the person who created this thread. There are a lot of titles out there that claim they have a “Dynamic Campaign”. IL 2 is the only one that probably comes close to having a DC. There is only one flight sim title out there today with a true DC. I’m hoping DCS becomes the next one

I think WWII bomber formations need to be improved. Not only do we need agression levels but I also think we need an easier was to build the formations too

При отсутствии в зоне видимости перехода или перекрестка разрешается переходить дорогу под прямым углом к краю проезжей части на участках без разделительной полосы и ограждений там, где она хорошо просматривается в обе стороны.

Yes!! No relation to Jim Marshall though. A few Fenders and a Lazy J20 Amp....absolute perfection

The documentation for net.dostring_in() in %DCS_INSTALL_DIR%/API/Sim_ControlAPI.html was updated with 2.9.18.12722. Now, it calls net.dostring_in() obsolete: This is blatantly wrong. Any advanced scripting is dependent on net.dostring_in(). a_do_script() is no substitute whatsoever. Three examples: Olympus, DCSServerBot, and Lua Consoles require net.dostring_in(). The latter two actually exemplify how both functions are used together. I sincerely hope that this is just a documentation error and not a symptom of a lack of understanding of DCS' scripting engine by the developers. Removing this function would break many applications of Lua scripting that go beyond simple mission scripting. To avoid any misunderstanding, please fix the documentation.

Maybe something to consider for an upcoming development report: From very early info about the DC (I think from Wags in a podcast, back when it was still in its early dev phase) it sounded like the DC and its logic would be a proprietary, monolithic system rather than a modular collection of parts. From more recent info though, it seems you’ve shifted toward a more modular approach. Improvements to logic and AI are being treated as core features, and the framework might even apply to user campaigns or missions of any size. Maybe I’m being optimistic, but I believe that’s the only really reasonable option. I’d appreciate if a future development report could clarify how the DC will play out in this regard.

nullApparently this table is not as comprehensive as I thought. Hopefully of use to some.

Nah, not the only one as SD points out. We've even had it for helis. Enemy engaged. Anyway, haven't watched the mentioned video. It's relevant, though it's like 15 years later than a very good interview that's out there. And people were laughing at me on this very forum ≈five years ago, when I suggested that ED acquired the license for F 4.0 to speed up the DC development and get better AI. Oh, the irony! Anyone with two brain cells that did pay attention, would know the Microprose dudes were aiming to do a Phoenix. @Silver_Dragon The discussion is absolutely relevant about the "competition", (I assume you didn't mean "competence" even if that's kinda relevant too), because that dynamic campaign IS to this day the holy grail that everyone wants. I know ED doesn't want to be a copy cat and do their own thing. While making a dynamic campaign, the only way to do it that makes sense, is to build it around a real time strategy game. Release CA 2.0 and you have a winner.

I can tell you, it is mission 3.

And Enemy Engaged. I used to run my own server at home. It was nothing like F4.0, but still very cool. Haven't tried any of those you mentioned.

Какими ещё "Баянами" попытаетесь нас удивить?) И кстати этой документации конечно же не стоит верить, особенно "Практической аэродинамике"(У которой кстати есть более свежая редакция, с "ДСП". Интересно, почему же появилась вторая редакция? Наверное потому что первая не особо точная?), реальный самолёт не по этой книжке летает. Примеры я уже выше приводил. ВОт кстати 1 скрин из Пр.Аэродинамики, второй- из Документации которую изучают при переучивании на самолёт. И чему в итоге верить?) В общем дальше живите по своим книжкам, мне нечего больше доказывать. Тут явно бесполезно... и не по теме вообще.

That's strange. Well, maybe the fixed the issue then. That would be really awesome. Or, it could be you have newer better hardware, I assume you use telemetry? Cheers!

ohhhh my god... you missing about flysism... il-2 Forgotten Battles Mig Alley Other Dynamics campaigns... Warno Call of Arms: Gates of Hell Pyre Graviteam Tactics games

Yes. I have curves and saturation custom set in Mi-8, Mi-24, no problems with trimming.

забыл вначале слово "НИГДЕ" ДЛя особо бронебойных ещё раз отмечу, что модуль делается не в состоянии "Только с звода". У него много повреждений ЛКП что говорит о его длительной эксплуатации. И в модуле не обязаны все лампочки делать по каким то ОСТам. Тем более ещё раз для бронебойных повторю что прототипом служил ГЕРМАНСКИЙ МиГ-29А, у которых подобных ОСТов видимо нет. И на зарубежных видео с МиГов тоже желтая индикация. Кругом одни раздолбаи, кроме всемогущего господина Wild Cat)

Yer very welcome, mate! (Is that "Marshall" as opposed to "Fender"?)

Вот это заруба! Вроде и «брейк» уже был. Все всех услышали давно.

Индикация нашлемки тоже своебразная в игре для 9-12, если читать описание, что выложил Wild Cat (РПЛК29), то там прицельное кольцо нашлемки в виде двух концентрических сплошных колец и сплошной сигнальный крест и режимы: - прицельное кольцо постояного свечения, сигнальное отключено - прицельное мигающее кольцо (2гц+-0.5гц), сигнальное отключено - постоянное свечение прицельного кольца и сигнального креста - попеременное мигание прицельного и сигнального при команде НОП. В игре почему-то, преривистое прицельное кольцо и сигнальный крест еще присуствует помимо цельных.:)

I am aware of this change to the AI's behaviour and have fixed it this end by a work round. Fix will be in next update. Cheers.

Searchable would be even better. Germany has so many heliports.
