  1. False, German records show it was a factory standard fitting by July 1944 and the majority of existing airframes were field modded.
  2. Because ED's systems are simplified and it would be unfair. That said no other 3rd party dev has done anything regarding realistic IFF either so its just adding complexity for no extra value for Deka. Even the JF17s IFF, though more complex than other DCS modules, is rudimentary at best.
  3. You get someone else to fly with you with a F16 or F/A-18
  4. Deka indicated long ago, during the JF17s release, that the amount of Chinese aircraft they are allowed to make that won't land them in the gulag is extremely limited and the J8PP happens to be one of the few they are able to make. People seem to be intent on ignoring the simple fact that if it served with the PLAAF in ANY CAPACITY at ANY TIME they are NOT allowed to sell it to the public. Given the simulator has numerous frankenstein jets with capabilities they shouldn't have, I'd rather have an aircraft that is somewhat representative of the most pivotal moment in Chinese aviation that never served, than not have it at all. Given that it never served, it is a perfect candidate for Deka to make.
  5. I googled "skill issue" and the dictionary referenced this post.
  6. JF17, despite the Chinese avionics, is not a Chinese aircraft and it was never in service with PLAAF.
  7. Deka has been very very clear over the years that their choices are defined by what the PLAAF allows them to do without moving into a jail cell for the rest of their lives. If the choice is the J8PP or nothing at all, I'll take the J8PP.
  8. I support making them more dangerous just to watch the meltdown happen when people get slapped out of the sky for being skill deficient.
  9. Just tried the delete/reinstall method and it didn't work, game just crashed.
  10. Y'all are working yourselves up over a nothingburger. Nothing is concrete, ED said they were doing a Fulcrum, until they weren't.
  11. Hi. While looking for potential fixes to an issue on 4YA's WW2 server I came across this strange phenomenon. When you get too close to enemies they will cease fire and in some cases forget you're there entirely. You can fly formation right in the center of a combat box and the bombers will refuse to fire at you. Not only that at many angles the bombers won't even use their full arsenal to shoot at you. Attached is a video showing the issue, with commentary, and I have attached two tracks and the scenario itself. There is an argument to be made that this is intentional as to prevent fratricide but the extent of this issue seems far far too extreme. If all the LW had to do was sit right in the middle of a formation they'd have absolutely ruined the concept of daylight bombing. Not only that, the degree to which the AI can't hit a stationary target is a bit suspect as well as per the A20 footage. test 1.trk test 2.trk Bomber gunner test.miz
  12. My brother in christ only 7% of people want it according to the poll, these sentiments are nothing but the mad ramblings of someone who doesn't like being told "no".
  13. Switching DCS to a subscription based game is a stupid idea and you should feel stupid. If you want to see DCS dry up overnight, make people pay for the audacity to play the game they've already purchased through modules.

    I'm currently on that Fulcrum redemption arc type beat.
  15. Oh I agree with the 1.6 thing, seems weird.
  16. The alt limit for the switch back to the first supercharger gear is *lower* in descent than it is during ascent, it was a design choice by BMW to make sure pilots had maximum available ata during an emergency dive. Greg speaks about it in one of his BMW801 videos.
  17. Hi. I haven't seen it mentioned and the search function sucks, can I just ask where exactly did the FM come from? Official docs?
  18. Theres many reasons not to recommend DCS WW2 to anyone (many reasons to do the opposite in fact too), however this isn't one of them. While the WW2 bullet is too slow in comparison to real life counterpart it does harmonise with the K14 far better than the F86s. https://gfycat.com/quarterlyshamefulirishdraughthorse https://gfycat.com/impartiallonecirriped https://gfycat.com/biodegradablerespectfulasianporcupine gifs courtesy of Shallot, not my content Mate you're doing your best and we're all appreciative of your efforts.
