Sometimes I wonder if the devs even play DCS themselves Don’t get me wrong, details on the landing gear is awesome. The external model looks very impressive sitting on the ramp or in the air - for videos and screenshots. But as a regular player flying and fighting in the F-5E, my eyes are INSIDE the cockpit. And in prominent view is the radar. Again, I don’t think most of us expected a radar rework. But some tweaks to the clutter and indication-files could have been done in photoshop without much time spent. Anyways, lets hope that ED can find some time to improve. Or to allow indication textures to be properly modded (and IC allowed) by the users themselves.

No but I agree there needs to be one, I will ask about this tomorrow.

Saw this tonight, it was very distracting in close. It's not a real thing or procedure, it doesn't benefit gameplay in any way, it needs to go. Option to disable it if you HAVE to keep it, but it needs to go. Better atc is one of the selling points of Supercarrier, why dumb it down for people who don't use it in a multiplayer setting when comms are important?

I'm a former Naval Aviator... I flew from the USS Kitty Hawk on my first tour (A-7s) as a J.O. and I was a TAO (Tactical Action Officer) working in CDC (Combat Direction Center) during a later cruise aboard USS Nimitz. My point is that I have some experience with flight deck operations. I'm sure there are many others who fly in DCS with as much or more experience than I have. First, I'm very happy with DCS and the Supercarrier as currently put together, but a little confused by this latest addition... the new flight director crew members! I suspect that this is the first of many iterations in EDs development of the Supercarrier module. Generally speaking, launch operations seemed fairly well thought out with the avoidance of some static objects a notable exception. I found it intuitive and did not require the use of HELP ICONs or HELP TEXT once I understood how it worked. Recoveries on the other hand seem completely nonsensical. I assume ED understands cyclic operations. It makes no sense to wrap arriving aircraft back around and through the landing area, fouling the deck, to park aft of the island. It would seem to make much more sense to direct aircraft forward onto the bow to park first on CAT 2. Additionally, you could direct them across the six-pack area then back around to the right to park along the foul line or, with a pushback, on elevator 2 and the corral area. Elevator one should remain open so that armed aircraft exiting the landing area could point in a safe direction while they disarmed... or not. You could also direct aircraft directly to CAT 1 for a Trap-Cat-Trap scenario. In order of priority... I would have fill CAT 2 first, followed by CAT 1, then the area along the foul line (Six pack and street areas) and finally Elevators 2 and 1.

This is horrible... isn't that what the Meatball is for?! Can we have a option in Mission Editor to turn this off?

I purchased the F-5E remaster, but was disappointed that these items listed below were not included. The A10C v2 and Ka50v3 upgrades had more features than the F-5E. I hope that all the skins that were on the old F-5E will be ported to the new one. I still can't believe that it took about 7,000 hours of work to make this F-5E remaster. The list of items that should have been included in the remaster. •Digital radio, •Aerial refueling probe, •A new radar in the same style as the F-4E, •Being able to arm the aircraft with four AIM-9, •External power (provided by ground cart) in the same style as the F-4E, •External air (provided by ground cart) in the same style as the F-4E, •Boarding ladder and boarding steps. •They say that the dimensions of the F-5E cockpit are wrong and were not corrected in the remaster, but I can't prove it. The F-5E could receive this in the future and the value of the aircraft could be adjusted to $70 or $80. This would be the best case scenario for it to receive all these resources. And finally, I believe this update should be free. If everything I listed was included, I would have paid more than $10, maybe $15 to $20. I hope the next updates are rethought in their format for the Huey, Mi8, L39, F86 and MiG15. I wish the best for ED and I always support its development by purchasing its modules. Apart from the campaigns, I have practically all the modules. I wish the best to ED and thank you! sHMSLIH.mp4

Same here. I was tempted to buy it, but fortunately used my brain first. I don't care about the external model. I checked a video of the new ones cockpit and compared with the one installed, I was not impressed at all. It was hard for me to find any differences. The lettering is better at some spots, but I don't zoom in that much when flying. The only thing that bothers me on the old one is the flat, artificial looking ADI, did it improve any on the new version? Not saying that there has been many, many hours in it, but the cockpit being 5% more clear does not justify $10. In other parts of the world $10 will feed an entire family for days.

Ну если у тебя все сводится к только к захвату и пуску, то предположу, что тебе в Тундру как раз и надо идти. А в DCS хотелось бы видеть побогаче функциональность, которую ED вроде как и развивает.

This definitely needs to be an option that can be disabled.

We need an option to disable this. It is going to interfere with our human LSO's. I can imagine how this will impact a CASE III landing.

When I play MP with a squadron, we don't use the game's ATC because we prefer to do the ATC ourselves over voice chat. How do we disable this weird feature in that case? Thanks

First of all, thank you for purchasing the F-16 Arctic Thunder campaign. It's the result of nearly 2 years of hard work and thorough research. My aim was to recreate USAF operations within the constraints of the sim as accurately as possible down to the smallest details and procedures. Therefore, unless you're a USAF veteran, you cannot expect to know all that, and it's OK. It sounds daunting, but it really isn't. The campaign is full of helpers, and if you keep an open mind and pay attention, you're in for a lot of learning and a hell of a ride. So before you start playing, please check out my video where I explain how to start the jet with a virtual crew chief: Better yet, check out Carbon's video where he explains each step in detail. He's an active duty, real life Viper crew chief, and by the way he's also your virtual crew chief in the campaign: As for all the realistic procedures simulated in the campaign I put together a quick guide to help you familiarize yourself with them: All of this is written down in the campaign documentation pdf too, under mods/campaigns/Arctic Thunder/Docs And last but not least, if you still can't hack a mission, before you start a new thread speculating how it's the AI's or DCS's or my fault, please watch Carbon's beta test playthrough of the campaign. He did a terrific job flying these missions and it's eye opening to see the ease with which he handles the Viper's systems. Oh, and let me quote him after finishing the campaign: "you sure are generous with fuel on these missions" So if you even find yourself flaming out, the solution is under your left hand. Worst case, if you really don't care about any of this (why did you buy this campaign then?), at least read the "MISSION NOTES FROM REFLECTED' part in the in game briefing. I collected the most important things you need to know in order to complete the mission.

Dear all, I thank your for the feedback on this, and I share your frustration with the lack of quality change for this. We are looking at options to allow players to adjust for their own setup. I agree its moved much too slow and I have taken my frustration up the ladder. I hope to see something new on this soon. Until I will close this until we have something new and more viable to test, and once again I apologize for the time its taken. Thanks!

Good feedback for a feature that was developed that nobody has asked for? Yet you continue to ignore requests made by the community for years, from very basic keybinding requests for the waveoff/cut lights (You know, the very wave off lights that exist for a reason to not shoot a flare at a plane) to ways to allow humans to control some of the features like ACLS for a more immersive experience in a MP setting, or methods to completely ignore the ATC in SP setting but still have ACLS access. When ACLS first came out I figured out you could use VoiceAttack to skip the ATC almost entirely by only needing to call "platform" to get ACLS functionality, which I could quickly slip in-between human manned stations in MP settings. But I shouldn't need to devise hacks like these or have to explain/rely on other people to adopt these methods to make it work. What are you guys doing? Do a bit of work for features we've been asking for. For years. And not ... whatever this is.

Нельзя, местные маршруты там мало общего с тем, что должно быть в ЛА, насколько я знаю. Выйдет Миг-29, посмотрим. Что там с ИНС на самолётах ГС? Как выполнять коррекцию, как она уезжает? Только их меньше (два?) и работают они совершенно по другой логике, которая вряд ли соответствует реальному прототипу. Должен ли Су-27 автоматически брать цель в захват при достижении рубежа дальности пуска, если до этого вел ее в СНП? Сомневаюсь. Не может ли Су-27 изменять ширину сканирования радаром? Есть ли там вероятностное обнаружение противника в зависимости от дальности? Влияет ли включенная помеха на его работу? Я запросил как раз не магический. Чтобы его не было на вражеских или нейтральных аэродромах, чтобы его можно было уничтожить, осложнив тем самым жизнь противнику, чтобы он был не абсолютно везде, а где поставили по сценарию или по ситуации на сервере самими игроками. Я много чем пользуюсь, чего нет в ГС и быть не может. Навигация, программы отстрела ловушек и тот же радар, как примеры того, что использую всегда, в каждом вылете и что есть у всех самолётов ГС. А есть еще куча возможностей, которых быть и не должно, типа экрана SA у Хорнета или радара по поверхности или прицельного контейнера. Дьявол в деталях, в полноценных модулях их существенно больше.

Its not just a problem of supporting them its the problem of them being hidden. All .edm models were accessible until the last few model updates which included the new S-3, B-1B and B-52, and now this one. I also forgot to mention earlier that not only do we rely on the Model Viewer for its ease of use and functions, but we also rely on the texture folders in order to modify such things as pilot patches, helmets and flight suits. Some people add mad details to other parts of the models such as landing gear as well and they benefit from having access to those textures in order to modify them. If the Model Viewer had a functionality like the Mission Editor does where the models are accessible through a drop down that should solve the problem for them where they get to continue encrypting things but make them available for skinners.

Хардкорный МиГ-29 в целом будет требовать большего количества нажатий клавиатуры и мыши. Значительно большего времени на процедуры. Более капризный радар и КОЛС с помехами. Поэтому при прочих равных, МиГ-29 из ГС будет выходить победителем в схватке с полноценным МиГ-29.

Hey all, so as I thought this was a test and not intended to go into release, the plus side is we got good feedback on it, I have asked if we can remove and give it some more thought. Thank you all for your patience.

Будуть Да, развитие погоды и погодных эффектов в плане. Ближайшее что мы сделаем это учет прозрачности атмосферы для оптических ГСН оружия и сенсоров ЛА. От тепловых ракет можно будет скрываться в плотном тумане. Только стоит учитывать что в ИК диапазоне видимость в тумане лучше чем в оптическом. То есть ИК ракета видит цель еще тогда, когда глаз пилота цель уже потерял.

Link list topic of An-26B liveries and template by me

Damn that outside looks incredible. It's a shame they didn't spend an equal amount of effort on the inside that we see 99 percent of the time.

So, after a day of extensive testing on my system, a short maneuver review. I have to say, DCS not only looks incredibly good after the new patch, the performance is also sensational. I just flew a short circuit in the new F-5 around Cyprus on the Syria map and even my wife stood there in amazement. I take this as the ultimate indicator for confirmation of visual beauty, by the way...! ;-D Yes, what can you say. I am happy. I just wish the F-5 in particular would get a few more features. Hey, I mean, at the end of the day I would have even added an extra $5-10 to the actual price for Mavericks, 4 Sidewinders, a new radio and VOR/ILS. Personally, I would like something more to come. A big request in this case! And please ED, please do this kind of rework with the F-86F and the MiG-15 too. The two modules definitely deserve such a rework. With that in mind...have a nice weekend everyone and have fun with the new patch...

Adding “game play options”, but making them a mandatory, simply forces lower realism levels onto everyone. I thought EDs stance was to pursue realistic ops as much as possible, hence decisions such as no auto AAR, no simplified TDC slew in the F18s ground radar, etc etc. Please make this an option or remove it.

Ahh, I figured it out. On passes 1 and 3 I didn't call the ball, and it gave me the flares. On pass 2 I did call the ball, and no flares. It seems like it's tied to the comms. Can we please have an option to disable the necessity for comms? Some of us like to do this zip lip, or with human controllers/LSOs.

Attached are the missions used for the new plane director instruction video. Nothing fancy. Best wishes, Wags Supercarrier-Video-Cold.miz Supercarrier-Video-Hot.miz Supercarrier-Video-Recovery.miz

In just an hour, it's meade editing large missions so much easier! I didn't even know I wanted this, but I'll be damned if it isn't my favorite feature you guys have released in years. Whoever's idea this was ... outstanding call!

This thread being marked as being "solved" is a bit misleading. The main issue of the thread has evolved into the unfortunate issue of not being able to use the Model Viewer and the encryption / hiding of the files that we livery makers use. Perhaps remove the "solved" and let us know whether or not the MV issue will be changed in the future.

Please consider instead of just removing the flare feature, also include an option to be able to recover properly without any AI comms at all. Many of us fly with other people who handle the ATC and LSO duties, and it's annoying to have to trigger scripted player/ATC comms from the menu while also talking to real human beings. This is especially annoying in Case III, since you have to go through the entire comms menu dance just to get the lights in the LA to come on, (established, commencing, check in, platform, ball, etc).

В этом я согласен, не все полноценные модули одинаково проработаны, к сожалению. Но все равно на порядок лучше, чем ГС. К тому, что это принципиально разный уровень по сравнению с тем, что есть у полноценных модулей, да у них тоже есть разница в глубине реализации, например Разбамовские радары выглядят более продвинутыми, например на них диполи влияют, на едшные - нет. И для меня это вполне себе повод не летать на нём, просто другой уровень детализации. Принцип - да, но возможности самолёта в плане навигации станут кардинально хуже, если сделать его реалистичным, как например на L-39. Один радиус действия и учет рельефа чего стоят. Опять же разница в деталях - на порядок. Мне кажется очевидным, что это две большие разницы, когда ты летишь по ущелью и ТОЧНО знаешь где находишься, или тебе надо примерно прикидывать и заниматься предварительным изучением ориентиров для выполнения задачи. Для кого как. Я изначально сказал, что существует группа игроков, для которых это не мелочевка, а очень важная половина геймплэя в ДКС, и если стоит выбор между развитием ГС и полноценных модулей, то для нас он очевидно за полноценными модулями.

5%... 50%... 80%? Hard to say. But it looks nice. And looking nice is a big part of my DCS fun. I'm a sucker for eye candy. I want things to look as cool as possible. The F5 looks good, feels fresh, and I'm enjoying my flights. That's my $10 worth. Good reason to be thankful for our abundance and good fortune. And a great reason - and season - to remember to donate to your local food bank.

An OFF switch is not a simple matter? You can still turn the spotting dots off in 2D, you could turn them off in VR before the infamous "rollback" of spotting mechanics 6 months ago. 6 months we're dealing with this! And now with the new fog update it's even more broken that it was before. Seriously ED, this is embarrassing.

As an added bonus, one of our Air Wings Hornets was actually hit and the airframe damaged by the flares during last nights ops, so extra bit o' spice for you guys! Avoid getting shot down In Close!

Nice attitude man, you got your answers but no thanks for those given. You've choosen to be snarky instead. What did you you expect asking the question anyway? Ask any USAF or Navy pilot - you'll get either a cringe or lol.

Many thanks for new fog and SC directors - we got major update in both the looks and functionality Pity you didn't listen though and spell broke quickly when my aircraft went instant 180 after parking, ugh. Not a thing you'd expect in a simulator.

I may have been joking about the Typhoon and Fulda map - but today is St. Niklaus day, and here is something for you DML friends to enjoy: the "fogger" fog module in working, but not completely finished version, along with a simple demo that allows you to change the current fog via the communications->Other menu. Happy Nikolaus! foggy bottoms.miz fogger.lua

Yeah this needs to be reverted/toggled, immersion breaking change for people that do carrier landings correctly and don't use the comms menu.

thanks for the tracks I have reproduced now and made a report for the team.

That's unfortunately also the impression i got from reading the forums and watching youtube videos. The F-5 is such a simple aircraft (in comparison to most other modules), yet the fidelity of each system still seems lower. The lack of radar improvements are the biggest letdown imho. The radar scope visuals already felt "basic" when the module released. At least a visual overhaul would be needed. Lack of Mavericks is another disappointment: When the module originally released a Belsimtek dev wrote that they would "like" to add Mavericks if they can get hold of documentation. I cannot believe that getting hold of documentation for such an ubiquitous plane would be that hard... I will restrain from purchasing the upgrade until there's some confirmation that at least the radar will see future improvements. Better radar would make the upgrade worth the asking price, Mavericks would be the cherry on top and make the purchase a no-brainer (for me personally)...

With the next update, we will be adding this new Supercarrier feature. To add additional detail for players, and particularly mission builders, we have attached an updated version of the Supercarrier guide that discusses the new director features in greater detail. Best wishes, Wags DCS Supercarrier Operations Guide EN.pdf

I used to do a fair bit of modding, but it's not worth going through the hoops anymore The worst part is that many mods are fixes to issues that are left hanging for years on end, improving the products that really need it. I understand ED wants to protect their assets, but it's getting to a level where it's not worth the hassle. Not to mention the clunky IC system that blocks a lot of good community stuff in multiplayer.

I have to release a new Version 4.1 adapted to the new fog and dust effects from the last DCS core updated: ■ I LOVE THIS JOB v4.1 ■ HUEY SHERIFF SKIN

Expecting a total radar rework is perhaps a bit much. But they could have tweaked textures and lua values to get something more realistic looking. Same with the tracers and cannon dispersion. Anyways. It is ED’s choice to market and brand this DLC as a Remaster. Personally I don’t see the 7000+ hours put into this. Nothing stands out, no extra effort that surprised me. It’s looking better for sure, but it’s barely enough considering how long we have waited for proper F-5E updates.
