Silent Film

I fly a Mustang, and I dogfight mostly AI Dora, then some AI Mustang, and little AI Kurfürst. Against Kurfürst it is the most easy to kill the AI pilot in a dogfight. Against Mustang it is possible but not often. But against Dora, it is impossible to kill the AI pilot during a dogfight. It must be some bug or a glitch.

Yes! Boeing 727-200 Adv, please! With cool liveries, like PSA with Smiley, and classical JAT.

Yes! I've got P-47 for ground attack, and P-51 as all-rounder, P-38 should be the best dogfighter of all American warbirds, so to complete my collection.

With P-51, patience is the key. Just don't rush, and be patient. Learn its limits, and then you'll find out it is very powerful aircraft once you learn how to use it. Turning is probably the most difficult thing, because its wings were designed for speed and not for lift, it requires to start a turn very slowly, and then to accelerate the turn, untill it starts shaking, that would be its maximum turn rate. And be patient, once again, if you rush in P-51, you are dead meat.

I initially wanted P-47, because I like its radial engine and fire power. But since it was not released yet, I bought P-51 first. Now that I also have P-47, I've got some impressions. P-47 looks way better as a module, it got really sharp and realistically looking textures, and cockpit operations also look so smooth and realistic. It is so enjoyable to look at and to fly. On the other hand, as much as I prefer P-47 as a module, P-51 is way better as an aircraft. P-51 is more difficult to fly, because its wing was designed for speed and not for lift, but once I have learned to use it and to be patient with it, it provides way better flying and combat experience. P-51 is generally faster, it climbs better, it has superb gun sight, and is more stable as a platform to aim and shoot from, got more fuel, easily recovers from a stall. On the other hand, P-47 has got better turn rate, but it also bleeds speed much quicker and can't recover it; it can't climb; its gun sight is awful; it is very difficult to recover from a stall. So, I am still enjoying P-47 more as a module, but I prefer using P-51 in combat. If you are for pretty module, get P-47. If you are for combat, get P-51.

Cheating AI Dora goes for landing Fair human Mustang wouldn't bet. Can't explain what happened to my engine, it looks like I was using WEP when I didn't.

And one more thing, in DCS World there are some small red letters over the roundel on the fuselage, which aren't and can't be there in reality, because there are no and there can't be inscriptions over the markings.

Commie traitor lost his wings - DCS World

Thank you so much!

Just to add, the aircraft number on the nose gear door is on the both left and right side.

P-51D Mustang (Silent Film) vs. (AI) Traitor

I want to create a custom Mustang skin, but in "DCS World > CoreMods > aircraft" there is no "P-51D" folder. Can someone help me where to find it?

Mustang (Silent Film) vs. Kurfürst (AI) Bf 109 still gives me tons of trouble, can out-run me, can out-climb me, can out-dive me, can out-turn me, and got more powerful weapons. Making me push my P-51 to the maximum G, I wonder whether AI ever blacks-out.

Oh my God, it was my error, I forgot to arm the bombs before releasing them, roflmfao, I apologize for bothering you, the bombs work just fine, and the Mustang is amazing! I hope my error will be helpful for other new users if they encounter the same "problem". Have a nice day!

Hi, and thank you for the Autumn Sale! I have bought the MiG-21bis module, and I would like to point out few details that should be corrected. I couldn't find a forum for MiG-21 in English, so I am writing here. In Yugoslavia and Serbia, military aircraft carried a five-digit number, in which the first two digits marked the aircraft type, and the other three digits marked the particular aircraft. For example, here in the photo we have a Serbian MiG-21bis with the number "17163", in which "17" means it is MiG-21bis one-seater, and "163" is the number of the aircraft. There is also the number of the aircraft "163" on the nose gear door. In DCS World, Serbian MiG-21bis numbers begin with "02", which makes no sense, because all of them carried a number which begins with "17". Also, that small aircraft number on the nose gear door is missing. And the five-digit number above the flag should begin where the flag begins. The other detail I wanted to point out is that the roundels on the fuselage and on the wings should be of equal size. It is better seen on this scale model. I would say that in DCS World the roundel on the fuselage is too small, and it should be the same size as the roundel on the wings. I hope this helps, and that it can be corrected. Cheers!

Mustang (Silent Film) vs. Dora (AI) A one minute dogfight. My first recorded DCS World video. I am still new to GeForce Experience, I don't know why it recorded it at half speed when I replayed the track, I needed to accelerate the video speed two times to get the proper speed. [video=youtube;-8kxEMfqHMo]

That is, it looks like rocket and bomb effects have been swapped, so that rockets explode like bombs should, and bombs explode like rockets should, I would really like some of the developers to check this issue.

I always use tail wheel locked with rudder and differential brakes to taxi, the best speed is about 20 kts, I think it is the most simple and effective way, once you get to know when to make a turn.

Rockets work fine. But bombs are not finished yet. When a bomb falls near a wooden barracks or a truck, it should destroy them completely by blast and shrapnels. But these bombs just do little "puff". One reason you should use a bomb instead of a rocket is that a bomb covers larger area and you don't need a direct hit every time.

Hi everyone! Can someone help me how to record a video? I've got NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 graphics card, but I can't use Alt+Z or Alt+F9 for recording, it won't open nor record in DCS.

In the free ground attack practice, no target is damaged by a close indirect bomb detonation, not even that large tent.

It seems that the simulation counts only direct bomb hits, if bomb falls near the target, it won't damage it at all.

I don't understand what are you talking about. I just want the default field of view from the cockpit to be like that of a standard lens, that is 45mm lens on a 35mm film camera, or equivalent, which is closest to the vision of the human eye. Anyways I know it won't happen, but I just say it should be like that in order to be realistic.

The frame of my monitor has nothing to do with the field of view. Field of view is angle of view which creates the perspective. The angle of view and the perspective has nothing to do with the size of the monitor. Because it is the angle, and not the size. Like in photography, a 2 MP image and a 200 MP image can have the same field of view, no matter of the size. I am not a developer of this simulation, and I can't program the default view. But I believe the default view should be the natural central vision of the human eye, and then for those who want to zoom in or out, the zoom option should also be available.
