  1. Nope, I guess we never know but they've said some time it'd be next after Corsair.
  2. Yep, that. Only said they'll do it, no nothing yet but it'd be expectable a v2.0 remake should be up to modern DCS standards with regards to everything, 3D model, systems, and all. And about further versions... they talked about the possibility but for now it's only in our wishes.
  3. Yes, Bis was heavy, it's not just "weight" but as you pointed out thrust/weight ratio, hence wing load, yes those small wings highly loaded make it a heavy aircraft besides total weight. Size was barely the same all the time but weight wasn't, and bigger (so heavier) and more powerful engines didn't compensate for the overall weight increase, not to mention wings didn't get bigger so wing load didn't stop increasing. The real last model, not Bis but SMT, though not made in big numbers was a disaster due to weight increase with barely the same engine as Bis. Apparently pilots hated it. Why would it be so?
  4. You should have named the the thread more properly, with that title no forum moderator knows at first sight you mean there's a texture flickering on the flaps. Anyhow, it's ugly, should be reported, and all that, of course, yes, totally, but don't know about you but I don't fly looking at the flaps all the time. Perhaps your immersion killer is the pain in your neck you have because of that .
  5. Dunno really, but it's like they're map makers and only that and apparently they don't use or know the sim at all and just took it for the video. It'd make sense, perhaps, I guess, but well…
  6. Not true, MiG-21Bis Flight Model has been updated several times during it's life (since 2014) and the lasts updates came not long ago actually. As for your other assumptions, MiG-21Bis was a pretty heavy aircraft as expected since it was the last big iteration of the model, you can listen to some Finish pilot's interview on YT speaking about that and how he preferred MiG-21F-13 over Bis for actual combat, though that means dogfight and not any real modern BVR combat at all in which MiG-21 would be really limited facing capable contemporary counterparts, let alone more modern ones. So Bis is exactly what is expected to be as you can see in the actual real manual, MiG-21 wasn't really a dogfighter unless against contemporary aircraft with limited to none capacities in that regard, same as MiG-21. Against other more modern fighters it's no match without proper strategies. And as that it's depicted here. MiG-21Bis wasn't ever a nimble fighter aircraft, you're probably confusing and mixing different models.
  7. You mean, based on the pretty long whilists these threads quickly become. My guess, Aerges is a Spanish team, Spain had F-104G and that was the only version ever flying in Spain (aside from USAF ones, but those doesn't count like "available and accesible info"), so we'll get first and foremost F-104G and perhaps later on more F-104G updates since it may not be fully finished at release date, and that's all .
  8. Pitty you can't wait, but Chinese new year (with sales in previous years IIRC) I believe will be in February 10th. I know it's long whenever one is in the need, but…
  9. <profanity> happens. Pilots should be acquainted to using Zulu time and all, but still... As people say, don't worry, Chinese new year sale will be here soon enough and you'll have another chance, or maybe in Spring sale, or maybe Easter sale, or maybe pre Summer sale, or maybe Summer sale, or...
  10. So you haven't read the zillion threats at the proper place (M3 MiG-21 subforum...) where we've all said we'd like to see more variants and all aside from the MiG-21Bis overhaul promised to happen after F4U-1D release .
  11. They've already said a v2.0 is going to come, but that's after Corsair release. They keep being a rather small team.
  12. Yep, not unexpected since they already said there would be proper assets for the time of both aircraft (Corsair & Hellcat) but nice to see it confirmed.
  13. That's from the 2024 & Beyond video, I believe. Not completely new. Beautiful anyhow.
  14. No, it's not "the same", the one seen in the 2024&B vídeo is an early F6F-3 with it's characteristic exhaust cowling shape (that tiny bump, yes), the one in TFC (sadly no longer there) was a late F6F-3, or an early -5 (which also boasted the little back window) without that exhaust cowling shape. It doesn't mean they don't put in the module several versions in the end (it'd be really nice), but what we've seen so far is only an early -3, no more.
  15. Personally, I think F6F-3 with it's tiny back window looks a zillion times better than -5 and the differences aren't that big in order to make a huge leap in performance. HVARs after all weren't used until I don't recall what date, but really late war, so -5 means a very late war model which would be also out of period correct counterparts and map... If we get the two of them I won't complain of course, they seem close enough for a P-47D like module, even hope so and TFC Hellcat is a -5 IIRC so the one they look closer, but I could live with a -3 until the end of the war without much trouble.
  16. The one seen in the 2024 and beyond video is an early F6F-3.
  17. Well, actually we already know we're getting F-100 and F-104, that's Century series for sure, but it's nice to have it confirmed . Not really, they've been showing those models in high quality since quite a time now. Whether it's in Vulkan or not that should be them to say since we can't tell just by graphics itself. Last time they said something big about it was exactly that, they had Vulkan already working and to the same level of graphics of DX so they could work in both at the same time. We haven't seen a thing since then, might well be some nice surprise to see some improvement in that regard in the 2024 and beyond expected video .
  18. IIRC, some video in the past was already recorded in Vulkan, but you can't tell the difference in graphics from DX to Vulkan.
  19. We all hope for the MiG-21 v2.0, be it a paid one alla ED Ka-50, A-10C II, and the like, or however they think it could be feasible, but for me, despite all the harsh from some users, it's been a great module since 2014 and it still is for the time being until some upgrade happens, if it happens. Count me on the other variants train, I'll be willing for some other ones for sure. I always said, even many years ago, I couldn't understand why people would be wanting modules for current aircraft were they can't be modelled at full whatsoever due to the classified info about them, but cold war aeroplanes should be all of them feasible to the highest standards with open and available resources. I believe those MiG-21 variants would fit perfectly into that environment, and apparently only from a relatively short time until now people start to realize what I already told so many years ago, cold war era is feasible and has available info... so I'd rather prefer those modules modelled to full extent instead of lacking "secret" things. I believe either from the module feasibility perspective as well as from an online servers missions one, in any cold war period mission MiG-21 fits that like one hundred percent. So, whenever it happens I want it, let's hope Corsair is a huge success (another one I'm willing to) and they can expand their team or something allowing them to give us more modules in high quality like those are/will be.
  20. The subscription system has been mentioned, suggested by more than one fella before. I don't think most people will like any kind of persistent subscription, and ED said in the past they won't do such a thing. And it makes sense, the subscription or any other similar method (like "premium" accounts, for instance) has been abused by other developers into pay to win games instead of skills. But I don't see a hardcore flight simulator in that kind of league, TBH, it's a different product meant for a different public who aren't willing to convert the flight sim they like into that other kind of "game" (despite they all are games in the end, yes, not my point here).
  21. You're forgetting the initially so called F-110 Spectre is also a Century series aircraft technically speaking, but since it's already almost there I won't complain .
  22. Pues, de momento hasta que lo corrijan, sí que parece que desactivando algunos hilos del procesador, no hace falta que sea en la BIOS, soluciona el tema. Tiene subtítulos para quien no se maneje. Eso es algo diferente a lo de arriba, es problema del sensor de las gafas que cuando detecta que te las has quitado da ese CTD. Aunque sea un apaño puedes tapar el sensor temporalmente hasta que se solucione, y te ahorras los crasheos.
  23. Sí, no es la primera vez que pasa. Algunos antivirus no están muy actualizados.
  24. A good replacement for long disappeared VEAO module is VNAO T45 mod, actually. Easy to find and download at their discord.
  25. Funny you post a pattern which shows exactly 1000 feet harmonization/convergence while you say it's wrong…
