Hi I've tried googling and searching the forums but no luck .. I am looking for some classic Black Shark TRK files that really show it off formation attacks, tactical flying, high speed targetting and engagement etc. Where can I find these? PS is there a way to search for trk attachments?

I enjoy helping people out, so any time you want to do some more training, send me a PM or just stop by to see if I'm in.

Not funny, just didn't wanted to start a new thread, simply awesome. That what takes just an eyeblink streached in to a minute... http://uk.video.yahoo.com/watch/8010584/21245351

Does anyone know how to refill the frogs external tanks once they are used up ? No matter what I try, I just cannot get them to refill. When I land, I goto refuel, but they dont fill up, only the internal tanks do. Also, if I re-arm with the default loadout, the tanks will still remain empty, I dont think they even get changed when re-arming with the default loadout ? So, does anyone know how to refill external fuel tanks for the frogs once they become empty, is their a file edit to do it ? is their anyword of a fix in an upcoming patch ? As this is really bugging me now, as I love flying a particular mission I made, but its a long haul flight and it NEEDS tanks and not being able to refill the externals is really crippling me. Any info would be great. Cheers.

Did you make this argument with a straight face? ;)

Hi guys I took the A10A FC2 quick mission and turned into a Black shark quick mission with a twist you can now share this on line with Co-op suport 2*A10A's with 2*Black Sharks in suport or visa vera. enjoy and fell free to edit it and make it your own flav. fixed the unit in zone 3 not big enough circle to activate the other group's. 1.4 MP now has Marking smoke and flares to better spot the targets when they arrive at there placement. If you haven't destroyed them before hand. if your flying with no labels BS SP version available now too.

Андрей, я давно определися с выбором., с 2005го. Я раньше высоте как то не предавал значение при ловле каписятых и в то же время скрытию от самолётов собственно на самом каписятом.... вопросов(пока) нет.

SPY-1 will track it. That is its job - to track ballistic missiles/warheads and blast them out of orbit. There's nothing magical about DF-21D, and frankly I believe its capabilities are blown way the hell out of proportion.

Eh... does it ? :-) Honestly, the last thing I want is to start some flow of sour comments, but these "old Falconeers praises" are really annoying in general, especially because they seem to be mostly based on "good old times" and melancholy rather than critical observation. F4 didn't hold it's own graphically since like 2003. I look at a piece of ground in F4 and - I'm lost. It all looks the same, grid after grid of the same stuff. Forest alternates with farmland. Forest alternates with snowy mountain. And those nasty squares... Squares, squares, whoever had this graphical concept in mind must have loved squares. One must endlessly consult a map to get some clue because terrain doesn't give any, especially without sea shores. I look at a piece of ground in LockOn and know... that is the valley behind the Sochi-Adler airbase leading to Krasnaya Polyana. And this is the typical landscape around Maykop. These fields are not square. The placement of forests is natural. No imaginary forester is cutting them into square shapes. Call me a hater or whatever, I'm not bashing the flight model here (while I suspect the barrel rolls in F4:AF to be a bit arcade :-)) or systems modeling or whatnot - it's solely the graphics. Stop pardoning those graphics already. It belongs to a time far ago, like a decade or so now. Hitiles did nothing more than add some res to the same old tile in most cases. Respect to F4 of it's time, respect to your good memories, but please! P.S. I love you all so much! Really. :-)

That is a pretty pessimistic way to view it. The Ka-50 was indeed somewhat out-dated the day it was presented in terms of sensors. The gun is a non-issue ... it is an extremely powerful gun, and it has to be mounted that way due to recoil. Mi-28 went of a less powerful, turret-mounted weapon instead. A lot of modern helicopters have to expose themselves to engage, and in some cases the longbow must do so as well. The Ka-50 has good stand-off range with the Vikhrs, and in a combat environment where it would not be facing forces with highly organized air defense, it would do okay. The trick here is not to get stuck on the combat part, but to appreciate it for the flying part. Realize that DCS puts the FLIGHT into Combat Flight Simulation. ;)

My assessment. Keeping in mind I call it the way I see it. BS is an excellent study sim of a crappy helo. The Ka50 is an old analogue platform, with no radar, no IR/FLIR and an axis mounted canon with a blind side to the left. It is not master of the battlefield. It's just another weapons platform and it has to expose itself to deploy its weapons.Opponents on the ground do not quake in fear in its presence. They take aim. That's why I gave up flying it. What IS the undisputed King of the ground battlefield is the AH64D Longbow. With its mast-mounted millimetre wave radar, it can poke that mast over a ridge, map the targets, share/assign them digitally, drop back down behind the ridge, and deploy up to 16 fire-and-forget hellfires in rapid succession. With its IR/FLIR it OWNS the night. Sorry, but I await a modern sim for this amazing platform. When you fly the Ka50, you're just another target.

Soon back from vacation, can't wait to test it out! Thanks again Mustang..

Really study the map as well, things look pretty different from the air perspective and depending how high you go that picture can change drastically. So with the above mentions of slow as you go, terrain masking etc, study the map and find visual points of interest along your rout so you can identify where you are vs the expected enemy. Helicopter pilots don't usually fly into a zone blind, they have decent intel on enemy threats, maybe not expact positions but relative positions. Along with your abris and some good studying your chances of survival will increase. Best of luck gents.

There are most likely plans that are not fit to be made public. The last word was that all efforts are focused on DCSW for now. Expect such news only very close to if not post release.

You always want to be scanning with the shkval. You can see targets out to 20km pretty clearly with it and you can always save them to abris to call upon later. First thing you should do is establish the forward line of the enemy and make a mental note never to cross it unless you are sure that all threats have been eliminated. Secondly you want to scan for targets with the highest threat potential, any kind of AAA, Manpads, Mobile launchers. Remember to use the maximum range potential of your sensors, only get as close as you must to I.D. targets. Get used to what they look like as well. Look for antenna dishes to I.D. if it's radar guided. Take out defenses first then work on mission objectives. Use the datalink and make use of your wingman AI or human. It's better to be safe and slow than fast and dead.

ED needs to build a firewall between FC2 and the DCS series - soon! FC2 must end from a software design/support point of view. It makes no sense to try and continue to maintian backwards compatibility between the two product lines. I know that's going to disappoint a lot of people out there, but thats the facts. IMHO ED should not have issued the FC2/BS patch. It should have been a clean break. What I would like to see is an independant, dedicated, DCS server component/module that each of the DCS client modules (BS, WH, etc.) could 'plug into' for multiplayer as they are created. What you see as an AI aircraft today, would/could be a human-flyable tomorrow. Users buy the new DCS client (aircraft) and a patch is issued for the dedicated server to recognize the new DCS module in a multiplayer environment. Designed right, this would eliminate the need to backwardly patch past DCS clients for compatibility - only server admins would need to load a patch. Of course, this is just my opinion, but it seems a smart approach to me.

:megalol: me too!

Each time I see the F-15 in those skins, I expect that the next minute it will transform into a giant robot. :) Nice work nevertheless.

IR pod for Su-25T(M) is called Khod. It seems it looks like Mercury in LO: I am confused about that. Don't know what to think oO Here it is Su-25TM: it is written Khod - looks like Mercury pod in LO...

Вы определитесь, что вы хотите, или симулятор с имитацией реальных боевых действий или фантастическую леталку с придуманными правилами? РЛС не глючат.

Hard-boiled.

Респектище :thumbup: Молодчина!!! Если закончишь кабину, ED просто обязаны следующей серией выпустить DCS: Су-25 "Грач":music_whistling:

Да.

8800 и ГТС250 это одно и тоже. 5670 явно пошустрее+меньше тепловыделение+DX11+аппаратное видео. В отличие от НВидии, Радеоны не сильно страдают от включенного сглаживания, т.е. можешь выключать сглаживание, можешь включить(ну не на всю естественно) - разницы не заметишь. Это тебе не НВидия, которая сразу умирает при включении сглаживания.

Well, in manual is writen that mercury is LLTV only so i gues it is probably true...Also take look on this interesting link... http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:Piam6qZ2eSkJ:www.faqs.org/docs/air/avsu25.html+LLTV+mercury+pod&cd=13&hl=en&ct=clnk P.S. i really dont know what that smile doing in link :D...

You should of seen and heard the lightning that we had last night, crazy crazy loud, I actually thought someone let off two bombs directly outside my house, I am sure it must of hit the ground not far from me? Worst thunder and lightning I have seen/heard for a long long time, maybe ever ?

That was frigging AWESOME.

If you use windows 7, the low resources warning that you see might be caused by a bug in windows 7, vista and server 2008, that uses up all system resources eventually either making pc usage impossible and giving out low resources error, or crashing your pc. MS did release a hotfix, but did not put the fix on the list of normal MS updates. It affected me and was solved by the fix. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/979223/en-us and this is a direct link to the hotfix http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=979223&kbln=en-us I am not saying that your low resources warning is due to this, it could possibly be just the fact that you have played for hours, but I thought I would mention it in anycase.

^^^ At the end of the clip it seems lightnings strike the same spot many times.

I would LMAO if ChromeWasp were actually some sadistic ED developer, out to find out how well the minions are informed.:lol: That's really more believable to me then the thought that someone could actually be this way. I can visualize it: A group of Dev's sitting in the summer heat by a pool in the country side near Moscow sipping Vodka on ice and taking turns posting on the laptop, Laughing their asses off.:megalol:

Past midnight here and it's been a very long day, could you clarify what measurement specific you looking for ? (below the HSI is the NavMode panel and further down the "bottom" part of instrument panel as you seen is "cut" away. From a flat standing panel, the measurement from base ("floor") to the HSI lower cutout is 104 mm

More great Russian Videos! the history of ka-50 ? about one hour, Russian dialogue. Very Good! Tags: Wings of Russia.

He decides to grab it and go get revenge (he seems to pick it up learn a lot faster then the ChromeGnat er.. Wasp), there is some woman who seems to be playing an important American (she doesn't speak very good English but in 1993 I bet we had a few Americans who played laughable Russians in movies) Anyway it is really worth watching on two levels, the main one for me are the great cockpit shots and some incredible aerobatics.

Bin beim "google'n" drauf gestoßen: ähnliches, wenn nicht selbes Problem (Win7 64): Vor ca 2 Wochen neuen Rechner, blitzeblanke Systeminstallation, blitzeblanke BS und FC2 Installation. Anfangs lief es, dann kommt eine Meldung "FC2 (oderBS) funkioniert nicht mehr" (Punkt). Was soll man davon halten?:furious: Diesen lächerlichen Blödsinn mit den 8 Aktivierungen hat man ja auch schnell verbraucht (auch ohne Deaktivierung) und nun stehste da: die "neue" Aktivierung von Starforce- wer untersucht diese Fa. eigentlich mal?- unbrauchbar, die paar Aktivierungen für FC2 gleich aufgebraucht und nicht den leisesten Hinweis, woran es liegt, der DCS Support schweigt- warum wundert mich das nicht? :music_whistling: Summa summarum: beide Teile laufen nicht, wer ist haftbar, warum habe ich die Kohle für diesen instabilen Mist ausgegeben. Im Hause Eagle Dynamics (DCS oder wie auch immer die sich nennen) sollte man sich langsam mal überlegen, ob man diesen Starforce (neben Win7 selbst mein Favorit für die Dysfunktion) Schwachsinn nicht langsam mal aufgeben sollte und ob man es sich leisten kann, Anfragen beim Support zu ignorieren. Wenn Mundpropaganda erst greift: BS??? nööö Blödsinn, läuft nicht, vergiß es...ach soooo...ja dann laß' ich's...und sag's auch deinen Freunden....

Some antenna, nav lights, pilot helmet, and of course the weapons/pods (like R-27T) etc...

This photo is pretty cool especially when i compare it to this (i know, not completely identical but close enough!)

bad weather effects trim is your friend, and turn off the heading hold might help you. I fly with only these on, pitch and bank hold all others off. and lots of triming. :thumbup:

Good luck deer... ...and not turn (her) back... :D _______________________________

You're comments are without merit and YOU, sir, are a TROLL and should be treated as such. When you made the comment above after that initial rant - I lost all respect for you. .

Mustang much better bro thanks!
