    I'm very interested in not 'virtually' dying as much in DCS

  1. For what it's worth, I agree that this would be great in sp or mp. I haven't dived into mp yet, 12 months of training myself first on a number of modules, but I would consider it just to be able to fly a chopper around and recover pilots. I too noted that in sp there is now a marker for downed pilots so surely that is something being considered. Is there a way of raising this as a requested feature? ( I haven't used this forum much so apols if this is a basic question)...would happily raise and manage such a request.
  2. Ok, Same problem as I have posted... So I tried the following and it worked for me... I opened the Stable DCS...opened the module manager and removed the SU-33 module (simply because it is a smaller module, pretty sure any will do...ie used the trashcan icon). DCS turns off to uninstall the selected module. When it restarts it showed the SU-33 module and the Mi 24 module were available to download, with the check boxes pre-selected as normal. Selecting OK to install the TWO modules...allowed DCS to COPY over both from my version of 2.7 blah beta and hey presto BOTH modules installed with no issues This may help someone hopefully...now off to Hind the hell out of Syria... PS, Ed have kindly replied to my question on the Hind...apparently it isn't for use with Stable and will be released in the future...ooops...works for me so...erm...shhhhhh don't tell anyone
  3. Having the same problem sounds like it's a common issue, have sent a report to ED. I am using the in-game module manager, tried repair...also trying Skatezilla's GUI...no luck
  4. I may be sticking my nose in here, so apologies because you may be a complete PC genius... but something I tried recently after hours and hours of changing one setting after another (and I do mean hours and hours) was to essentially turn OFF all anti aliasing and lighting modes within DCS and ramped up all settings within my AMD Radeon card letting the card do all of the work. I went from 35-45 ish FPS to 60-70 and the game looks and plays amazingly...who knew??...this appears to go against all I have seen to do/ try but thought I might share this with someone. I currently have a AMD Radeon 5700XT running on an i7 10700k 32gb RAM running the game at 1440p. The reason for this was that I had an odd lighting shimmer particularly around dials and models but that has now completely gone.
  5. Beautiful Mod thank you for your gift... I too have this mod now with stable DCS 2.5.6...I've just clocked that it wasn't set for this version (only 2.7)...which is a shame. If it is of any use I have found some issues with the throttle animation ( it doesn't move but throttle does increase and decrease), the joystick does not move but the aircraft does everything it is asked to do ie left right up down etc. The green panel lights do not illuminate but the dials do operate fine. The arrestor hook animation is not working nor the flaps, although I can at least say the flaps do deploy as the flight characteristics are affected when asking for flaps to deploy. Also, when asking for a cold start on aircraft carrier...I am flying above it engine on etc. These are observations not criticism as you are clearly geniuses and it looks beautiful. Thank you for your hard work and passion. SK
  6. Yes, well...this has resolved my issue, thanks again for responding. I obviously knew this at some point as I have a key binding for it AND a separate button on a tablet button box specifically for the Radio trigger (in bright green no less)...which to be frank is very obvious so I can only think I have suffered some brain shrinkage over the last few months and forgotten this was a thing. At least I can now do some rather impressive aerobatic manoeuvres in the Mi8 Relieved...SK
  7. Ok...I will certainly give that a go, I check my key binding, I will let you know if it works...it's odd that I can use the comms when I land in situ though...so I'll be in the correct trigger area but in the air it doesn't bring up the comms menu to select F10, but if I land at that location or even just touch the ground with my wheels ( whilst still moving) that allows me to open the menu too. I am on the correct radio channel by the way. Thanks for the reply, I will re visit it tonight
  8. I have what appears to be an odd bug: Over the last few missions...I am currently on mission 13 I believe...when asked to use F10 on comms menu to speak to those lovely people in control of the mission for either confirmation to engage or for the next action to be triggered, I cannot do so unless my wheels are on the ground. I know this as I waited in one mission as I knew there would be a message that needed a response, so I remained on the ground and it worked. I therefore employed the next comms (in the nest mission) by landing. Again, this worked (but would not open when in flight). On the current mission (the one after the convoy) which involves escorting Mi 24's to engage dangerous sheds in the mountains...I have the same issue. I decided to literally touch back wheels whilst flying low to the ground...which again worked (but no comms menu in flight). I have checked the comms channels (several times) but this is always on the correct channel... If this is correct...acrobatics every time comms is needed seems excessive... Question...anyone else with this issue...and I doing something wrong...if not...any ideas?? Thanks
  9. DCS, as an environment offers great potential in terms of large scale war, processing power and resourcing needs aside of course. I simply love this simulator and have purchased a number of modules within the last 12 months. Combined Arms is one of them. I personally would like to see better use of sea based assets. Battles amongst ships would be truly emersive, if developed better. I would also like to see better use of ground troops. I have nothing but admiration for all at ED and anyone that wants to help improve this great platform. If you have been around gaming for as long as I have, this product is truly amazing already. Good luck on your venture!
