  1. Still just a beta. Its not as if World is properly released yet. I'm ok to give it time. Sure I'd have liked to be able use Black Shark in World right now, but I wouldn't accuse ED of truly creating a two tier system until World sees a full release.
  2. This! My A10 has been punted over to my D: drive to make a little extra space. BS2 is still on my C: as I bought the upgrade version.
  3. aaawwww! I have the upgrade version. Ah well. It's not as if it's not good anyway. I hope missions still work in World.
  4. I'd recommend downloading the latest torrent and installing it while you wait. Then all you need to do is enter the key from your game box when it arrives. That will save any patching issues and allow you to tweak some controls or other options before the mail is even delivered.
  5. Isn't it the same executable once you're in the cockpit?
  6. The latest download came with installers both for the updated world and the P-51
  7. But by then, Nevada might look more like the Black Sea.
  8. I love this mission but I've been putting it off for ages, as I usually start playing after 22:00 and don't have enough time for this one before going to bed around midnight
  9. I think I know a guy in the same situation as you Stickers, who can play!
  10. Also, we're only half way through May and hope does not mean guarantee.
  11. WoP is fun. I enjoy it on occasion. I know of one guy who I think may have migrated from the likes of WoP to DCS A10.
  12. That looks like it somehow randomizes the dispersion of the puffs, as well as having some variable transparency, and making sure there's never an individual puff on its own...but I don't know. I'm not versed in this sort of thing at all.
  13. Once you turn the realism settings up, it's no Ace Combat/HAWX WWII, but it's no DCS either IMO. Caveat: I've never flown a real P-51 or any other aircraft :(
  14. That looks pretty decent. A good thickness to it. Does it increase the complexity and reduce framerates?
  15. It's a little more complicated than that. This answer assumes that you are not resident in Russia (where the situation is a little different) The original Lock On is, I believe by the same team, but published by UbiSoft. Since then, the same team (the Eagle Dynamics team here) have created two addons entitled Flaming Cliffs. The most recent, so far, is Flaming Cliffs 2, which is compatible online with Black Shark, but not Black Shark 2 or A-10. I believe a Flaming Cliffs 3 is being developed, but is not available yet. This should hopefully be compatible with A-10, BS2, P-51 and any other aircraft in DCS: World. You will need the original Lock On to play any Flaming Cliffs module, but you will not need the previous Flaming Cliffs games.
  16. What's the deal with the JTAC sending me after tanks using the CBU 87. Really not a great weapon for the target.
  17. It is supposed to be good, and the graphics are hugely improved when modded, but I find it impossible to know where to start, and always go back to DCS when I play it.
  18. In the Mustang, the mirrors are clickable, leading to the perfect "On in the air, off on the ground" situation :D
  19. I've played this a bit, but I'm not very good. I've got my character into a bad situation. No ammo at all, and no knowledge of where to go to get any
  20. I changed the lyrics a little.
  21. I reflect on my reflection And I ask myself the question "Have I the means to change direction, I go?" I don't know. Am I a missile, or am I a rocket? If I'm a rocket, then I'm a very missile-y rocket Am I a rocket or am I a missile If I'm a missile that makes me a rocket of a missile I fly on through the skies But do I recognise The target in my sight? Now it's time to see if I guide Am I a missile, or am I a rocket? If I'm a rocket, then I'm a very missile-y rocket Am I a rocket or am I a missile If I'm a missile that makes me a rocket of a missile I'm always running out of thrust On that you know you can trust One thing to understand: I go "Bang" Am I a missile, or am I a rocket? If I'm a rocket, then I'm a very missile-y rocket Am I a rocket or am I a missile If I'm a missile that makes me a rocket of a missile
  22. This thread reminds me of a time a couple of years ago, when I had to use rudder to make it all the way back home in IL2 1946 (so somewhat less relevant I know) with no aileron controls. That was not easy on a twist-stick!
  23. You're right. I got my thoughts backwards.
  24. move your head away from the HUD a little
