Added the option to equip BE, CE and EE with mode 4 IFF (new cryptographic unit, IFF panel and warning light, only installed in a few aircraft) in the module options. The F1M will be equipped with it by default. The AP light test now needs AC power to take place. Flight control system test now needs AC power to start. Fixed wheel brakes control in F1BE - right brake command was also moving the left brake, while left brake command was doing nothing. F1BE pitch/roll/rudder trim positions are synchronised in multicrew now. Added PBL 201 2300 l fuel tank to flyable versions of F1. Weight, balance and aerodynamics are accounted for. Fixed bug in which, when central and right external fuel tanks were mounted, no fuel was consumed. Brake warning light no longer turns on when actuating the brakes if the gear is deployed without weight on wheels. Several Hydraulic System fixes were made: Circuit 1 and 2 accumulators were not working correctly, now fixed. Combat flaps and brake lights logic was incorrect with engine off, now fixed. Added AC electric (400 Hz) cockpit sound. The seat height is now initialised before the simulation is unpaused at mission start. It eliminates a sudden pilot head position move once the simulation has started. F1BE: Fixed not moving rear seat rudder trim switch, when using keyboard. The seat height adjustment switches clickspots are correctly initialised now to eliminate clickspot position misalignments before the seat is moved for the first time. F1BE: Added keybinds for rear seat height adjustment. F1BE: Forward canopy now cannot be lowered and closed before the rear canopy is closed and locked. Added separate input commands for stages 1 and 2 of the radar elevation increase/decrease buttons. Added 'Disable force feedback effects' option to the module options. Pilot flight controls are set to neutral now when the pilot has lost consciousness. Added two input commands: 'Move throttle from Idle to Stop' and 'Move throttle from Stop to Idle'. Added 'button-like' input entry for the throttle idle cut function. It moves throttle to ‘Stop’ when pressed, and then back to ‘Idle’ once it is released. The movement speed for pilot stick and rudder by keyboard was increased by a factor of two. Now it is possible to click the throttle out from ‘Stop’ position, disregarding the actual throttle axis input. Then, the throttle will be animated in the cockpit to the actual axis input position. Communications: Added "Radio Selector Box defaults" section in the module options with default volume potentiometers positions. Now any of the default Voice Chat 'cockpit VoIP PTT' commands ('r.1', 'r.2', etc) can be used to activate transmission. It is made to reduce player effort to config (or deconflict between modules) Voice Chat input settings. Pressing any of those commands will activate Voice Chat transmission via the currently selected radio. Now both default Voice Chat 'cockpit int VoIP PTT' input commands can be used to activate crew communication in F1BE (given that "F1BE intercom hot mic always enabled" option is unchecked in the module options). Fixed radio status being incorrectly displayed as grey box (i.e. 'is turned off') in Voice Chat at hot start. Added "F1BE intercom hot mic always enabled" option to the module options, though Hot Mic itself is not operating correctly yet. Please use a default Voice Chat key command to talk to the crewmember (with this option unchecked). Pilot flight controls: Throttle will not make an abrupt jump to the actual position anymore when the joystick is moved for the first time after the mission was started. F1B: Stick, rudder and throttle are now always at the same position at both seats. F1BE: Now another seat afterburner detent position is correctly taken into account, if it was modified in module options. F1BE: Fixed resulting stick position when Force Feedback is enabled only in one of the two seats. F1BE: Throttle will not jump anymore when the second crew member joins. F1BE: Throttle transition between own and other seat input axis positions is now smoothly animated, when the FM control is transferred between seats. Controls Indicator: F1BE: With Combined Controls Mode disabled, and when another crewmember is present, the Controls Indicator now displays: a) other seat control input (grey index) when our seat has FM control, or b) own seat control input (white index) when other seat has FM control. In Combined Controls Mode white/grey symbols work as before. The throttle control input (white index) is additionally displayed in all F1 versions. It can be observed, with another crewmember being absent, when the input axis is moved with the throttle being at ‘Stop’. Stick/rudder positions now account for trim settings. Same applies to other seat controls positions in F1BE. F1BE. Controls Indicator now displays 'C' symbol before 'F' and 'R' symbols, when the Combined Controls Mode is enabled. Miscellaneous: Default 6DOF view restrictions are now available again for user modifications (now can be edited in ViewsF1Cmn.lua). Throttle handle and pilot hand got animation in the external 3D model. Module options dialog was updated - Force Feedback related options were arranged as a visually separate group. Cockpit tooltip and the corresponding command name in inputs for 'Air conditioning auto/manual switch' are now the same. Fixed IFF Mode C clickable switch tooltip. Added ‘Anti-ship Strike’ task to all F1 versions. Minor flight manual updates were made. DCS: C-101 Aviojet by AvioDev General: Added 'Disable force feedback effects' option to module options. Pilot flight controls are set to neutral now when the pilot has lost consciousness. Fixed batteries being constantly overheated when flying at high altitudes for quite a long time. Changed the module options tab name from 'C-101EB' to 'C-101'. The idle cutoff clickspot on the throttle handle is hidden now when the throttle is advanced forward from its idle position. Now it is possible to click the throttle out from ‘Stop’ position, disregarding the actual throttle axis input. Then, the throttle will be animated in the cockpit to the actual axis input position. Communications: Added 'Audio Control Panel defaults' options group to module options with default volume potentiometers positions. Now any of the default Voice Chat 'cockpit VoIP PTT' input commands ('r.1', 'r.2', etc) as well as both 'cockpit int VoIP PTT' commands can be used to activate transmission. It is made to reduce payer effort to config (or deconflict between modules) Voice Chat input settings. Pressing any of those commands will activate Voice Chat transmission via the currently selected radio. Pilot flight controls: Stick, rudder and throttle are now always at the same position at both seats. With Combined Controls Mode disabled, stick, rudder, and throttle will be animated to the new positions according to the other seat controls input, when FM control is transferred between seats. I.e. there will be no immediate jump to the new positions. FM will take this into account, thus avoiding abrupt aircraft trajectory changes, or engine stress in the case of throttle input. Controls Indicator: With Combined Controls Mode disabled, and when another crewmember is present, the Controls Indicator now displays: a) other seat control input (grey index) when our seat has FM control, or b) own seat control input (white index) when other seat has FM control. In Combined Controls Mode white/grey symbols work as before. The throttle control input (white index) can be observed now, with another crewmember being absent, when the input axis is moved with the throttle being at ‘Stop’. Controls Indicator now displays 'C' symbol before 'F' and 'R' symbols, when the Combined Controls Mode is enabled.

AGM-65 EO sub-mode Improvements Dear all, In the latest DCS update, the F-16's EO sub-modes (EO-VIS, EO-PRE, and EO-BORE) have received some updates to improve their logic and the AGM-65 missile seeker control interface for the F-16. For the most part the underlying functionality won't change all that much; but the AGM-65 seeker behavior will be more consistent and accurate within each sub-mode. Four terms (or modes) are used to describe the AGM-65 seeker operation with regards to the F-16 interface: BORE: Seeker is caged straight ahead in line with the missile body axis. SLAVE: Seeker is slaved to the SPI. SLEW: Seeker is steered by pilot input. TRACK: Seeker is tracking a target. When not in TRACK and the SOI is set to the MFD WPN format, the seeker will be in SLEW. When not in TRACK and the SOI is set to anything other than the WPN format, the seeker will be in either BORE or SLAVE, based on the current EO sub-mode: EO-VIS: Seeker is in SLAVE mode, slaved to the SPI, which is located at the TD box. EO-PRE: Seeker is in SLAVE mode, slaved to the SPI, which is located at the current steerpoint. EO-BORE: Seeker is in BORE mode, caged straight ahead. EO-VIS The main effort of the changes made to this sub-mode was to ensure that the logic received the same functional improvements that DTOS and VIS sub-modes received several months ago, specifically in regard to how the HUD/HMCS designations worked with the SPI and TGP aiming. The most significant changes that players need to be aware of is how the TMS Forward/TMS Aft commands function in pre- and post-designate, depending on whether the SOI is set to HUD/HMCS or WPN. When in pre-designate with the HUD or HMCS as SOI, the TD Box will be stabilized to the FPM (HUD) or HMCS Aiming Cross as it is now, and the first TMS Forward will ground stabilize the TD Box into post-designate (no change from before the update). When in post-designate with the HUD or HMCS as SOI, the SOI will remain set to HUD and HMCS, allowing the TD Box to be slewed to fine-tune the position on the ground as desired. This will be a noticable change from previous versions, in which entering post-designate simultaneously moved the SOI to WPN. Now, a second TMS Forward when already in post-designate will be required to move the SOI to WPN. When in post-designate with WPN as SOI, TMS Forward will command the AGM-65 to TRACK mode, and TMS Aft will slew the AGM-65 seeker back to the SPI (no change from before the update). To return EO-VIS to pre-designate, the SOI must be moved to the HUD or HMCS, and TMS Aft is pressed to cage the TD Box to the FPM. This is the other notable change from previous versions, in which pressing TMS Aft while WPN was SOI was also returning the EO-VIS to pre-designate with the SOI back to HUD or HMCS. As a result, it is now possible to return the AGM-65 seeker back to the SPI while keeping the SOI on WPN and remaining in post-designate. Since the seeker will remain in SLAVE mode while the WPN is not SOI, it is now easier to perform an off-boresight HMCS designation of a ground target for a handoff to the AGM-65. As long as the WPN is not SOI, the AGM-65 will remain slaved to the designated SPI location, even if at a gimbal limit. As the aircraft turns inbound and rolls out on the attack heading, the seeker will have arrived to the SPI, at which time the second TMS Forward may be pressed to transition the SOI to WPN for the final target acquisition and engagement. Even if you press TMS Forward too soon before the seeker has arrived at the SPI location, a press of TMS Aft while WPN is SOI and the SPI is within the gimbal limits will command the seeker to the SPI. Below is a summary of the EO-VIS procedure, with the changes highlighted in red: (HUD/HMCS SOI) TMS Forward to ground stabilize TD Box into EO-VIS post-designate. (HUD/HMCS SOI) TMS Forward again to set WPN as SOI and enter SLEW mode or DMS Aft to manually set WPN as SOI and enter SLEW mode. Seeker LOS circle appears. (WPN SOI) Slew seeker over target. (WPN SOI) TMS Forward to enter TRACK mode. (WPN SOI) TMS Aft to exit TRACK mode/slew seeker back to SPI but remain in SLEW mode or DMS Forward to set HUD/HMCS as SOI and enter SLAVE mode to reposition TD Box as desired. LOS Circle will disappear when seeker enters SLAVE mode. (HUD/HMCS SOI) TMS Forward to return SOI to WPN and re-enter SLEW mode at current SPI or TMS Aft to return to EO-VIS pre-designate to designate a new SPI if desired. EO-PRE Very little has changed in this sub-mode, but it is now possible to do a handoff from the FCR in GM, GMT, or SEA mode. When the FCR is SOI and set to GM, GMT, or SEA sub-modes, entering FTT or MTT will also transition the SOI to WPN and the AGM-65 seeker will enter SLEW mode. However, the seeker will still need to be manually commanded to TRACK mode using TMS Forward while WPN is SOI. (An automatic handoff to the AGM-65 directly into TRACK mode is not possible when using the FCR; this is only possible when using the TGP.) When the SOI is manually set to WPN, the LOS circle will appear since the AGM-65 is now in SLEW mode, regardless of whether the FCR is in FTT or MTT. TMS Aft while the WPN is SOI will command the seeker back to the SPI, but the SOI will remain set to WPN. The LOS circle will remain and the seeker can still be slewed unless the SOI is returned to FCR or TGP. EO-BORE Similarly to EO-PRE, little has changed with this sub-mode. If the SOI is not set to WPN, the seeker will be in BORE mode, returning the seeker to the missile body axis boresight position. --------------------------------------------------------- In addition, it must be noted that the SOI will automatically be set to WPN any time the TGP or the FCR enters a track mode, regardless of the selected EO sub-mode. Based on research, this reflects accurate behavior for the version of F-16 that is being simulated in DCS. Kind regards, Wags9 points

**DCS: SA-342 Gazelle February 2024 update** *Facelift* The upcoming update for the SA-342 Gazelle will introduce new features, fixes, quality of life improvements as well as a facelift to the external models and textures. We're gradually replacing the original liveries that stem from the release back in 2016 with highly detailed renditions that make full use of physically based rendering techniques (PBR), many of which are included in this update. The SA-342 Gazelle minigun variant not only received an update on the M134 and gunner models, it now features the first iteration of our gunner AI capable of making short work of any soft target it can get within its sights. *Community Contributors* Over the past few months Polychop Simulations has been working closely together with a number of very dedicated and exceptionally skilled community members who have shown an interest in contributing to the module by putting in their time, effort and expertise resulting in what is essentially a graphical overhaul for the SA-342 Gazelle as well as an extensive set of kneeboard pages and documentation on the all new French liveries that can be found in the module's Doc folder, or more continently, attached to this post. *Input system overhaul* With the upcoming update of the Gazelle we have overhauled the inputs system. This means that it is likely that you will have to rebind all of your controls for the Gazelle module. The inputs for the Gazelle are now split into separate categories for the three positions - Pilot, Copilot and Gunner (the latter for the Minigun variant only). The inputs system works differently depending on whether you are flying with other players in your aircraft ("multicrew"). When in "multicrew" mode, each player will only have access to the inputs according to their position. However, when flying the Gazelle in a singleplayer mission, or flying on a multiplayer server but without other players in the aircraft, the player will have access to multiple input categories depending on the position they are in. In short, this allows a single player Pilot to also use the Copilot inputs, and vice versa. The priority (in the event of two inputs being bound to the same switch) is determined by the currently occupied position. For example, if you have the 'Fire Laser' input from the Copilot bound to "Button 1", and the "Force Trim" from the Pilot inputs also bound to "Button 1", then pressing "Button 1" will action different behaviours depending on whether you are sitting in the Pilot or Copilot seat. However if you bind them to different buttons, you can use both from either seat. The available inputs are as follows: - Pilot position - access to Pilot and Copilot inputs (Pilot priority) - Copilot position - access to Copilot and Pilot inputs (Copilot priority) - Gunner position - access to Gunner and Pilot inputs (Gunner priority) Please note that we expect further disruption to the inputs system as we continue to bring improvements and add various missing inputs to the Gazelle. We thank you for your patience and understanding. *The future* While we have come to a point at which it is now all hands on deck for the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior module's final stretch, Polychop is determined to keep updating the SA-342 Gazelle module on all levels including but not limited to major features such as an English (Empirial units) cockpit, a George like AI pilot/gunner and the transition to the new rotor blur system seen in more recent rotary wing modules. We'd like to be transparent on the fact that the aforementioned final stretch of the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior module development will have a certain impact on the development of new features for the SA-342 Gazelle for the next few updates. https://youtu.be/mjk64Y3mXdE DCS: SA-342 Gazelle by Polychop Simulations Exterior model art updates Added: New PBR material for glass surfaces.

Hi guys! This is just awesome! I was always dreaming of DCS OH-6 or AH-6. I have got around 600hrs in MD500 and compared to other 6 helicopter types I have flown, I can say that nothing flies like 500. Sooo smooth, stable and agile at same time. Uncomfortable too. Now I fly larger and much more expensive twin, but when people ask how does it fly, I say "meh..." and start to talk about MD500. Even flown that thing again in my dream a few times. So, thank you so much for bringing it to DCS. Throwing it around, with Cobra overhead, on WW2 Mariannas (or Nam one day) will be blast. Masak4 points

So far i love the changes. Things I've noticed: 1. During BFM you can really bleed speed to get high AOA shots off. The tradeoff is once you bleed speed down to 250-260kts, you really have put yourself at risk of getting too slow. And is hard to get it back above 280 without disengaging. 2. The aircraft seems to hold speed better in turns IF you stay aware of your energy state and not yank on the stick. 3. During landing i did not notice the ballooning when turning down wind and setting flaps to full and gear down 4. flaps to full and coming over the ramp on roosevelt i did not notice the floating effect the previous FM had.3 points

It could be the reason for VR - improved terrain streaming. For example, over Ghaza I had 65-72FPS (72Hz, Quest) in Apache at the height of buildings and trees, and now a stable, solid 72FPS and better rendering times. I can even fly over the Mariana Islands. Nice.3 points

There is no logic really, the system is not complete, hopefully it will be solved. This is the issue, we are not talking about IFF here, there is no issue about the ROE System (changing classification), the issue is with track correlation (filling the hollow Link16 symbols). It is possible to have a correlated Hostile track without NCTR print, because that track has already been established as Hostile (ROE has already been applied by whomever has donated that symbol over Link 16), now all that's left is to do correlation when FCR sees it (fill up the symbol). I will gladly provide more details in DMs if desired.3 points

@currenthill Discovered a glitch with M777 reloading/rearming. If you give it a waypoint action of "Fire at Point" without specifying "Rounds Expended", it won't reload with a supply truck in range the way your M270A1 MLRS or ED's M109 Paladin will. It *will* reload if you set Rounds Expended to 60 or less (for Weapon Type = "AUTO" or 40 for "Unguided" or 20 for "Guided'), but then it's limited to that barrage instead of continuous fire. Also, the reload/rearm timer is weird: Excaliburs load all at once after about 40 sec; HE rounds load one at time about every 4 min (which will take over 2.5 hours for a full reload). Using latest open beta and latest USA asset pack (1.0.0 dated 21 Dec 2023, downloaded yesterday).3 points
