Yes. The F-16s radar is greatly overperforming. Granted the F-18s radar is about 40% more powerful than the F-16s one, and it has a larger dish, the F-18 should have the upper hand. BUT, in DCS the F-16 is astronomically better. Here is a test performed by u/_Quaggles on reddit which indicates this issue:

Same thing happens to me as well.

Try playing around with MSAA settings. I do not have this issue using MSAA X2. Make sure you've cleared any old metashaders from saved games, and you don't have any weird mods installed. It must be some setting causing this, or a mod. Here's a screenshot I took, no jagged lines.

Thanks for the explanation. I had been used to old TWS and liked it quite much. Now, I feel like I will be fighting with the controls to lock someone up. With the old implementation I just slewed around with 4B and I was pretty much ok. Now it feels it got much more complicated. Aaaaand the waited a couple of years for a simple fix, when literally everyone is used to a certain way TWS works.

are you kidding me? Is this abbomination "correct as is?". TWS is supposed to work only in BIAS mode? and why did they not remove "manual" all these years ago??? I don't get it...

Damn... I want that FCS.....

Damn!! Those reflections look sick! Is your mod somewhere available to download?

I've noticed that when the F-18 is loaded with one Centerline Fuel Tank, two AIM120Cs on the cheeks, 4 AIM120Cs on the inner pylons, Removed outter pylons, and 2 AIM9Xs on the wing tips, which is a symmetrical load, it keeps banking to the left and needs to be trimmed. Anyone else experience the same? Of course I've checked that my stick in centered and the two engines have the same thrust. This only happens to this particular configuration.

Thank you very much mate!!! I recently added a line, that I forgot about, that was supposed to "make the game multithreaded". it was "set_affinity= ". Thank you for your help!

Here is the log file. I tried repairing but nothing changed. Edit: I noticed this line. Could it be it? 2021-01-28 21:11:22.486 ERROR WRADIO: CommandDialogsPanel: RadioCommandDialogsPanel.initialize error [string "Scripts/UI/RadioCommandDialogPanel/RadioCommandDialogsPanel.lua"]:1394: assertion failed! stack traceback: [C]: ?

That's so weird... This started happening only after the new update. Could it be something related to my multimonitor setup? I've exported the DDIs to a different screen.

Greetings, For some reason the communication menu doesn't show up. Used comm 1, comm 2 keybinds and also the "communication menu" keybind. I tried to use the comm keybinds followed by pressing some number keys just in case it's only a visual bug, but it seems that it's like the keybind doesn't work at all. I changed keybinds but the problem persists and has the same behavior. I should also note that I'm not using any modifiers. Attached is the trackfile. I pressed the comm1 comm2 buttons many times, both on the ground and in the air. I don't know if that helps. If you need the log file as well, tell me to attach it. communication menu not showing.trk

Yes the Radar is kinda messed right now. Doesn't show donors' tracks from friendly planes and AWACS on ATTK RDR. Also, I noticed that looks break too easily, even when target is how without changing direction or altitude.

First of all, I have to say I'm pleased to see ED pushing towards completing the FA-18C although there is a fair amount of features that don't have proper functionality and we haven't heard anything about (...ahem... MIDS Page functionality, D/L features, L16 sending designation to wingmen, missing HSI and SA page functions, accurate IFF implementation etc). In 2020, there was a poll that asked us what feature was more important to us to be added. People overwhelmingly voted for the flight model update. Fast forward to 2021, "officially", the flight model hasn't been updated, besides fixing the ground effect (which was a bug for two years). Among all these other features for the F/A-18C release in Q1, is the flight model also on the list? Are we to expect something like that? Among many other FM issues that have been discussed about in other threads about FM accuracy and underperformance compared to public unclassified material, the airplane has some weird interactions when performing split S with about .8 to .9 Mach speeds, it starts having seizures and going nose up and down. Can we expect such an update or ED has forgotten about the FM update?

I second this. DTC implementation is long overdue and it's about time we get a proper working one, along with realistic IFF and Datalinks. For that to happen I believe there has to be a revamp of the Mission Editor, which has a lot to learn from CombatFlite, which is an awesome tool.
