Hi guys, thanks for the replies. I was not able to upload a file but there were some more tests and I report what I myself and several other guys are experiencing. With no wind in the mission you have no issues. That means that the wind is the probable cause of the left drift (sometimes it is to the right for other guys) BUT with a 5 knots wind you have serious problems to hold the jet straight as described above. Consider what follows (pasting from the net): “ These designations were standardized nationally in 2008, whereas "light wind" can refer to 0 to 12 or 0 to 15 knots and "moderate wind" 12 to 19 or 16 to 19 knots, depending on regional custom, definition or practice” So we have that in a ‘light’ wind the Viper becomes almost difficult to control on take offs. You can never risk a formation take off like that. My question is: is that normal in your opinion? I have never driven a real F-16, but common sense tells me that General Dynamics would not have sold one of those jets if they were so hazardous in a light wind... not speaking of a strong one. Therefore in my humble opinion there must be some little bug in the way Eagle Dynamics’s F-16 takes cross wind into account. Would not even be the first module to show this problem They fixed it before. We pray consider fixing it for the F-16 module, too as soon as possible. Thanks a lot

Hello all, I don’t know if someone has reported this before, but it seems to me a common issue, speaking with other fellow flight mates. So hopefully ED will look into it and correct what seems to be a little but most distressing bug, that is making take offs a quite hazardous affair I refer to the fact that on the ground the Viper nose always drifts to the left (it's not the wind or the load out, it happens even if the wind blows in the other direction in clean config). If I'm taxiing slowly, the nose wan't stay stright on the yellow line. It always moves a bit, and over 20 kts G/S I need to apply rudder or differential braking to hold it straight. As said the real problem comes at the take off. The faster the jet, the faster the pull, making it difficult to stay on the runway. Without applying first a firm correction of wheel steering and, after NVG disengagement, from half to full (depending on weight) rudder, and even short differential braking, I always risk to end out of the left side of the runway. And with all that rudder correction sometimes the jet risks kipping on one side. In good days I’ll do a drunkard take off run, in bad ones, well you can imagine... And to do a two ship departure in this conditions is not the case On landing it's quite the same story, but till I’m aerobraking nose high, I can counteract with a firm differential braking (meaning a have most of the time to brake only right brake to stay straight and needing more runway to slow down) and even applying stick, if need be, and once the nose drops I need to be slow enough to go soon to NWS on, and avoid departing runway. As initially I though it depended from my flight controllers, I tried anything in clean and heavy configuration, from external calibrations, to putting dead zones and curves in DCS on the 3 rudder axis, and at last even unplugging my pedals at all and trying to steer with the keyboard... same result. I don’t know from what that depends but the feeling is like if the left main gear is slightly braked all the time. Or maybe the engine thrust is slightly de centered to the right. I’d like you guys to report if you encountered a similar issue and how you deal with it If it really is a bug as I suspect, the more speak up the sooner ED will become aware of this and help us to have back safe departures and landings. Thanks in advance for any reply.

Hi guys, we of Vipersnest realized a couple of documents on Ramp-Start procedure. One is in Italian but images are fully understandable The check-list on the other hand, may be used by everyone GO to www.vipersnest.it, navigate to Download page and look at the first two PDF's on the top (of the 'Documenti VsN' section) This docs have been written in accordance to DCS A-10C Ramp Start practice mission (Beta 4) but as it all is a work in progress it may vary. Report errors if there are Hoping this may help someone else... Thank you :joystick:

DRAKO replied to diecastbg's topic in DCS Core Wish List
Stop all, guys! There must be a bug in the forum!! Why can't I se an F-16 in the Poll options!!??!!?? :huh: -
Thank you Now it works ;-)

I recieved the email and clicked on the link but still can't see the beta forum I think the to registrations are somehow connected.
-
I used a different email Now I have modified my email on the Forum to match the one of the purchase. But the login name of the purchase is different of the one of the forum and I sill can't see the beta forum Anyway, why are to different registrations needed? When I tried to register for the purchase, using my forum login name registration did not go (could thah be becouse I used a different mail?). So I had to change the login name. Maybe this help to better registration procedures What to do now to see beta forum? Thanks

700 pages ar a bit lot.. I'll see what I can do
-
It tells me Please register at forums.eagle.ru to access a closed Beta forum. But the link simply brings me to this forum, where once logged in I cant' find the beta forum. Even tried to log in with the user name I needed to use for the download page but it doesen't work :huh:
-
Thank you Viper that was clear and fast. Was just wondering about Beta forum Have I to downlod first in order to see it or am I simply blind so that I can't find it?

(Sorry if that was already asked or replied..there are so many posts...) I have bought the product. Going to download it this evening at home. Now, if I download 64bit version can I still download 32bit version, too? I have both WinXP32 and Win764 on my PC. As there is that TrackIR problem I need both versions at the moment. Please reply me Thanks
