Hey! Thanks for the positive feedback on the new DCS core asset pack. I'm going to update all of the mod asset packs, to feature LODs and reduced texture sizes, to make the packages smaller and the assets less demanding in missions. I will also remove the duplicated assets that are now featured in core DCS. I'm also going to update all weapons to the latest standard. I started with this one as a template, since it only have one asset. Military Asset Pack Turkey 2.0.0 released! Changelog Version 2.0.0 Added LODs Changed textures to reduce size Added encyclopedia entry Changed folder structure Distribution model This Military Asset Pack is available in the following versions: The standard full download. Remove old asset pack version and unzip this in your Saved Games mods\tech folder. The incremental download which updates your full download and contains only the changed files. You apply it by overwriting your current installation.

Couple things: ED isnt implementing any engines. The Airplane Simulation Company is. But I am pleased to inform you that it is possible to bind throttles in any configuration!

Red Star Simulations (MiG-17F):

I found the issue. I'll release a fix tomorrow. If you're having issues with it roll back to v1.7 for now. On my machine it takes about 60 seconds to start. Try clearing out your shader cache in Saved Games\DCS\fxo and \metashaders2. That first run after clearing your shader will take a little longer but it should be good after that. Let me know if it's still a problem.

Here is a post from M3 today for those who haven’t seen it:

I think Discord should be burned back down to its basic game chat and everyone stop using it as social media.

some snow liveries (WIP) for the SAM Sites Asset Pack ...

Good day pilots! In yesterday's update, some may have noticed a slight change in the cockpit with the addition of a WEP master switch as used on some mid and late built F4U-1Ds. Attached is a screenshot from our WIP updated manual regarding its function. And be cautious; engine knock from excessive MAP with or without WEP will cause engine seizures. And there will be a very noticeable knocking sound from it. There is also a big improvement on the engine damage model. Pilots will now have to follow very carefully the limitations in place for the R2800-8W. Time limitations for different settings are realistically reproduced in our model along with temperature constraints. To help you out here is a small summary: Max continuous setting (max temp 232 Celsius) for unlimited time: 2550 RPM and 44’’ MAP for neutral 2550 RPM and 49.5’’ MAP’ for high and low. Military setting (max temp 260 Celsius) for max 30 minutes: 2700 RPM and 54’’ for neutral 2700 RPM and 53’’ for low 2550 RPM and 53’’ for high War emergency power (max temp 260 Celsius) for max 5 minutes: 2700 RPM and 57.5’’ for neutral 2700 RPM and 58.5’’ for low 2550 RPM and 58.5’’ for high The recommended altitudes and supercharger settings for operation with water injection are given: Level Flight Neutral — 0—8,000-feet Low — 8,000—17,000-feet High — 17,000—34,000-feet Climb Neutral — 0—4,000-feet Low — 4,000—14,000-feet High — 14,000—33,000-feet Other than that, a lot of graphical bugs were fixed and most importantly, the YE-ZB homing signal sectors have been fixed. Image is WIP and will most likely change.

If only every aircraft module would just spit out the reason for engine or system failure into the log file… if only. Maybe M3 can start the trend? Hint hint. Whatever condition is satisfied in the code that makes the engine quit, just export that to the log file alongside the line of code that tells the engine to quit.

Дискорд отвратителен пмсм - это как ВЕСЬ форум ДКС свести в несколько веток. Флуд, вопрос до одной теме, 10 постов до другой теме, 3 других вопроса, ответ на первый вопрос, еще вопрос, флуд... - примерно так это все выгладит. Найти старое обсуждение по конкретной теме - опять крупицы нужных постов в тонне остальных обсуждение. Полный беспорядок, не сказать помойка.

Not only the normal Ballistic Trajectory but also this

Some new snow liveries (WIP) for HDS mod...

Unofficial mods will always be unofficial, and I am sorry if you think there is no mod support, but frankly without our platform the DCS modders would not have the opportunity to show their great work. And many of the mods are great, we have even added some to the core of DCS. But not everyone can be chosen to be added. So please do not derail this thread thank you

Running the Super with a 4090 without any performance problems. Neither I have any reliability problems. Switched from a G2 and the Super is worth every cent,

Hey! Check my FAQ: Q3: Will the new core assets conflict with the Currenthill mod pack assets? A3: No. All new core assets have unique names and will therefore not conflict with the Currenthill mod pack assets.

this is why a track file is so useful when diagnosing issues .. don’t get mad when someone that wants to help asks for one.

Yes, the current system for troops should work.

Ar in this context is an abbreviation for anslagsrör, where the rör is not just any old pipe or tube but a tändrör (fuze). So zonar expands to zonanslagsrör, a proximity fuze that also contains an impact fuze as a backup or secondary detonation mechanism. Swedish fuze designations can get pretty cryptic. Many people huge nerds may recognize the very common ö hk sar, which expands to ögonblickligt högkänsligt spetsanslagsrör (immediate detonation, high sensitivity, nose-mounted impact fuze) which was and is used on a lot of direct-fire cannon shells, but there's all sorts of weird and exotic fuzes if you go far enough back. I recommend the terminology section of the munitions catalogue for this (see e.g. page 21 of Ammunitionskatalog för Flygvapnet, 1984 - unclassified publication, has never been classified). The air force never had some of the really old and obscure stuff though; for that I recommend checking out a navy or army catalogue from the 1940's. With that exciting terminology discussion out of the way, I'll have to admit I don't know exactly why the HEAT rockets have a proximity fuze as an option. I have never seen a source that specifies what the detonation range is.

I have Crystal Super. I'm using Pimax Play 1.40.04, Rendering resolution set to 1.0 in Pimax Play. Refresh rate at 72hz in the headset. Quadviews and Foveated rendering in Pimax Play OFF. Eye tracking on. I use the external Quadviews (from Tallymouse video) and the Quadviews companion app with the settings from Tallymouse video. I always launch DCS from from its own Launcher app. In DCS: Eye tracking and Quad views settings checked/ON. Crystal Super firmware 1.07. I mostly use Tallymouse settings, except that I use 72hz and not 90. Nvidia driver settings - as in Tallymouse video, the extra sharpness at 20% there and High Performance option. Everything else as default. My PC: AMD 9950X3D, RTX 5090, 64Gb RAM. I don't get stutters. The maps I have checked in solo player missions is Kola, Afghanistan, Syria, Caucasus. In Multiplayer I have only played on the Syria map. I have not done todays DCS update yet.

Radio Navigation:

It does, however they've added a switch to the circuit panel on the left side (the bank of fuses in front of of the throttle, the very first switch on the bottom row. Flip it up to enable the system) that turns the system on. After that, injection turns on with the throttle.

Just for data reference, flying low over a burning city in IL2 today, mild stutters and FPS at 65. Just a few seconds of it. GPU (5090) is around 95% useage most of the time (so 0.85 render is spot on), CPU (9800X3D) at 45% (proper heavy assets mission). So it's not 'just a DCS thing'.

I also have problems after this update. The engine stops after approx. 3-5 minutes, even under different conditions (taxiing with take-off on airfield, in flight, and on landing after approx. 5 min. flight) and this while maintaining the specifications. That's why no track file helps, I think.

Important updates are usually cross-posted on all official HB channels (this forum, Discord, Facebook, Instagram, ...). Discord is best for when you want to connect with the Devs or the community fast and quick. Most of us have it open on the second monitor or on the phone the entire day and can react immediately. While the forum is more something like "checking your mails" once a day or so. There was no extra communication for this patch because what has been stated before still holds. If you do not see a changelog from HB, it means there is nothing from HB. That of course does not mean things are standing still, quite the contrary actually. There are some bigger changes that require a more extensive testing phase and that has not finished yet. In the meantime the team is of course pushing out more and more changes

Hi everybody, as yesterday's DCS update fixed (and changed) the YE-ZB navigation, I implemented the changes and updated the campaign file accordingly (affects M01, M08, M19 and M20). https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3346001/

Thanks for the update and the Currenthill assets I also might start flying Afghanistan again. However no fix again for the CH47 CDU issues, this is the second patch that has not included a fix for this annoying bug

See this thread: As for cargo loading/unloading, the Chinook already offers to do that, so it stands to reason that ASC doesn't need to reinvent the entire wheel.

I think Heatblur should make a sticky on the top of the forum. Let us know that you are doing less frequent, bigger updates. It's making people panic. Not everyone uses discord.

yes, you can walk around in the loadmaster slot while the plane is airborne.

From On Develop

To be honest, I'm actually quite disappointed with the latest update. It's a bug that breaks the module's communications because you can't select presets, leaving the module unusable for online missions. It's been a year since the Chinook was released, and the update pace is very, very slow. It's a shame because it's a great module, but it seems that there are other priorities, apparently.

Currenthill has already covered what to do in his FAQ. The answer is nothing. The new assets are added with a different naming convention. The “core” ones have the [CH] suffix instead of a prefix. So if you have all the assets installed you will essentially have 2 version now, the core versions and the mod version. He has said over time he will start to remove the units that become core from the packs so in future there is no duplications.

Lately it definitely seems that ED modules need at least 2-3 years AFTER early access release to get to a stage that a lot of people consider to be ready for any serious use (more than the odd free flight). And that really is a shame…

excellent news !

Silly question but will it be possible to fall to my death as load master? Or will I always have a strap keeping me safe. It’s not an important feature, but it would be kind of amusing.

CPU resource utilization is still an issue. Im not coder, but it appears the complexity of the code with 9 different pimax processes running in the background with piserver.exe being the worst is bring cpu use to its needs. Add QV with DCS and CPU are managing a lot processes. It is a little better after last 2 updates with hotfix, but can be a lot better.

I guess for DCS purposes it doesnt really matter. But for those who want to simulate real world stuff here you go. If you hot refuel/rearm Avionics should be off. This includes ST STA, HUD, SNSR PWR switches, Avionics power switches, HMCS Sym INT, then Air refuel switch to open, RF silent, GND JETT ensure off, Master Arm Off. You will also turn the EPU off at which point the ground crew would install the EPU safety pin. Technically the way they had before wasnt right in the sense that it was essentially replacing the pod automatically which turned it off. But real world you would turn it off anyways. If we are lucky we will get the scramble option for the Sniper which allows the BIT to run in the background essentially.

Hi, we still have some work to do for logistics and cargo, and the dynamic spawned cargo will get more refinement. However I will say that setting the contents of the cargo should be left to the mission creators choice. They may want scenarios where cargo does deliver more than it could in reality. But also if they wish to they can set realistic values and cargos contents. We have to be careful not to restrict it to much and leave the choice up to the mission creator. thanks

yes

Blackburn's Irregulars Thanks to Magnitude 3 for the bug fixes of today's update!

In the video for the August update for DCS, we have a short part from a C-130, showing the cargo hatch and the door opening from a first-person perspective (the cargo deck boss). It looks really interesting. We also have a new infantryman model with a walking animation.

PLEASE! When do we get the new soldier model - They were first shown a couple of years back, they have been appearing in all subsequent promotional videos, they are now in Wags latest Afgan video, surely they must be ready for release now? They are so needed to make all of the new maps more realistic.
