Can someone, preferably ED confirm if the 3 ratbam modules (harrier, m-2000 & F-15) will continue to work/function as desired? As from what I have read on the first page it seems like they will but in a recent post from ED they say that they will work in DCS 2.9 and kinda implying they will start to break from 3.0, if they do begin to break will ED offer a refund for all the modules as it will technically be them that will have broken them due to updates?

AI is a baby that still needs to be spoonfed, I shudder at the perceived expectation it will grow into a well adjusted adult as it is being raised by irresponsible parents

Hey Oriole! I had a similar problem with my collective and i was able to fix it through this thread. But i have one of the first versions of his collective.

Woops, slight mixup, exchange with any recent 3rd party release

I don't know where that chap got that from. I would not recommend tampering with mt.lua. It is an internal file, which is subject to change and not meant to be set by users unless advised differently by support. I can not even tell if it is a thing at all anymore. Windows seems to agressively enter eco mode on AMD for whatever reason. You can try and launch your DCS.exe with --disable-features=UseEcoQoSForBackgroundProcess and see if that fixes it.

I´m a little confused, cause I expierenced quite the opposite. When I flew Rise of the Persion Lion there was a mission where you start from the carrier at pitch black night and fly towards the iranien coast into the sunrise. The lighting was quite stunning and the orange glow above the coastal mountains felt very immersive. Another thing I remember was some weeks ago were we stayed on our practice server quite long and got to perform an ILS approach at Nellis after refueling. The lighting went very smooth and I had to adjust the HUD brightness in little steps to addopt. So I don´t understand what you mean.

Yea, but it's inside the Headset. I've got the answer from PIMAX. They want to send me another replacement (in 3-5 weeks) and then extend the test period by or to 7 days. It's probably because of the language barrier that I don't quite understand what that means. Quote: To address this, we'd like to arrange another replacement for you. We will extend a 7-day return window, starting from the date the new replacement unit is delivered. This gives you ample time to test the unit thoroughly. To me, it reads more like the trial period will be shortened next time, even though the word “extended” is used. Very “artfully” worded. It's being shortened, but they use the word “extended.” Just my kind of humor. At least I'll get a 3-month warranty extension if I decide to keep the device after that. So far, I haven't been asked to pack up the old headset and send it back. At least, that's how it was last time. Last time, the “new” headset was only sent to me, or rather the replacement process was initiated, after PIMAX had confirmation that the old headset had been received. That alone took more than a week. I'm curious to see how long it will take this time. But I'd also like to take this opportunity to stick up for the support team that's helping me. The guys and girls are doing a great job.

Hi, I think there is a problem in the beginning of the mission : radio massages get sometimes cut off, some sentences seem not to be finished, I'm told to take off THEN to hold THEN to take off...

I look forward to working my way through this campaign. I've been struggling to do much more than just casually flying it around, so this should help a lot.

Hey Eddie, Thanks for looking into this. The lua line you refer to, is that in S-2E_static.lua (in the updated folder)? If so, is that just a comment for the model maker in the lua file? It is in green text for me (using Notepad++). Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

Every single time I use the F16 and have set way-points my hud SPI always misaligns. Is this normal. I Can take off and get to my Waypoint, dp what I need to do there and when I rbt to the set waypoint for Base my Hud SPI misaligns every single time. Is this normal?

I lived in Malawi for 4 years and often would see the milky way on a night flight, however as @Dangerzone says the OP pic is an extended exposure photo but I imagine he's using it to illustrate a point.

I have had a quick olok at the updated S2 to see if there were any changes to the description.lua's. He has made a very small change to the radome texture but that should not affect anything in my liveries pack.

Isn’t it should be directly point to the target and then launch approve beeping?

this has been reported thank you

Vielleicht wird's in 3Q/2025 zusammen mit MiG-29 Fulcrum Release ja noch was. Sind ja noch 7 Wochen hin. Ich habe jedenfalls schon mal 'ne neue SSD gekauft, weil es auf der 2TB zu eng wurde.

I'm not saying that the night sky doesn't have room for improvements, but I've flown plenty of hours at night across remote areas, and I can attest that I've never seen a sky like the on in the OP's post. Moonless nights tend to be black - and it can be difficult at times to determine if the dot on the horizon is a lone farmhouse, or a star in the sky. Full moon nights are different, give a clear horizon, and surprisingly a lot to see as well on the ground (tree's structures, etc). But the OP image is a long exposure capture, that takes in a lot more eye than the human eye see's - and bringing something like that into DCS would be in the lines of being more unrealistic than closer to realism. Yes - stars can be more visible at the higher altitudes, but still nothing like a long exposure photograph. Saying that - a very rare occasional meteor/shooting star would be kinda cool, and I agree with the city light glow. Not sure though how much extra processing this would add to DCS - and if some - I'd be happy for it to wait until Vulkan is done.

That train is gorgeous. Sodor mission to liberate Henry from his chains and its people from the tyranny of the fat controller please

SD and TB. I'm with you on expectations with the dynamic campaign engine. I think history with new new Mission Generator, the save game feature (which honestly, I think some of the 3rd party stuff has served better, and for many years already), the more recent inclusion of Dynamic ally created FARP spawn options (that still have issues), to name a few - I'm actually preparing for the DCE to be something that I probably won't be touching for quite some time after release and still be using 3rd party solutions (like SRS vs the internal radio function). I really hope I'm wrong. But likewise, I'm aware it would be unfair to put these prior experiences on a new 3rd party dev. This is ASC's moment to shine. I think of other 3rd party companies that have raised the bar (HB, and Urga), and see no reason why the C130 couldn't be released with a similar raise in the bar. in some ways it's interesting to see posts about "I won't buy another 3rd party module after the RB incident" - where I find myself exactly the opposite - I have higher expectations from 3rd parties with what will be delivered. I guess in fairness - in part - they only have their own modules to maintain and ED has a lot more going on. Re the C130 - I'm already dreaming of the options available in MP missions that it could be used (as I'm expecting to be using it there, and planning accordingly. I'm certainly not going to be leaving it up to the DCE to be the provider of purpose and opportunity for the C130), so contemplating what else can be done by myself and the community to make this thrive.

Ich denke mal das wird bestimmt noch etwas dauern bis die 2. Phase zur Erweiterung abgeschlossen ist. Kürzlich wurden ja erstmal fixes der bestehenden map gepatscht.

From github grinelli main. If you dont know how to use git bash -> do not even bother. And afterall, did not see anything new, as I cant fly with it. I think it doesnt take superlong that there will be update anyways... Hope ED released that TWS multilaunching / locking from its shakles.

Hello, I can't see FPLN MGMT and ALTN MGMT page in the latest version of CH-47, but from my tests, I can enter those pages but have an error displaying them. Screenshots from older version: FPLN MGMT page: ALTN MGMT page: I have tried out those: 1) In current version, when I do "IDX"->"↓ key"->"CDU key 3->" and it gives me a FPLN page. But I can use FPLN MGMT functions if I remember where its corresponding key is. e.g. I can ERASE FPLN by clicking "CDU key 1<-". I can confirm FPLN is deleted from central MFD & CDU. 2) For ALTN MGMT, when I do "IDX"->"↓ key"->"CDU key 4->", it gives me a black screen. But pressing buttons also works like 1). 3) For the ALTN page, when I do "IDX"->"CDU key 4->", it gives me PROCEDURE/PATTERNS page. But again, pressing buttons also works like 1). My .trk performs the same as I mentioned above: CH47 issue.trk
