This is becoming the infamous Ka-50 thread where all moderators banged the head against the wall and said we were wrong when we were in fact correct.. ;) Unit damage and weapon damage is not up to standard, and instead of saying its impossible to fix, try to help us gather information so we can try to tweak it ourselves.

The main problem is the current engine. I really hope they introduce a realistic damage model and weapon detonation models with EDGE.

There is a pretty simple fix by adding a second area to the weapons. In this second fragmentation area you can use a simple algorithm (randomization) that will decide if the object is hit. DCS is very crappy when it comes to units health, so in order for this quick fix to work the fragmentation dmg would have to be equal to the existing blast dmg. But the result will be far better then it is now..

Not sure, but i will check that switch next time! Thanks! :)

I only managed to drop 2/6 pods with the jettison system. Is this a WIP system or am I missing something?

Well, 100 years ago people thought the cars were insanely fast because they did 15km/h. Today we think Koenigsegg One:1 is high-tec with 0-400 in 20 seconds and top speed above 450km/h. With DCS: Black Shark raising the bar for desktop simulations we consider lock-on arcade, even though we thought it was the shiznit when released.

Exit Beta, finish up everything that need polishing. We have a lot of "need to have" features that need to be finalized in order for DCS to take the next step. * Multi-crew capability * Radar API with IFF capability * Dedicated server * Netcode that can handle packetloss and higher ping. * Overall DCS stability, or atleast more graceful crashes Regarding the radar. We need an API from ED. The 3rd party developers can't invent the wheel and make their own implementations for their own module. This is the only approach for realistic radars, otherwise we will end up with a huge chaos when different developers handle radars in a different way. I'm talking about both ground and air to air systems.

We had a 21 player session with update 1. When we lined up 20 A-10C on the runway we had about 200kb/s to every client (including TS3). A few users started to warp. It's obvious that the warp issues are related to the clients frame rate. And if one user have low FPS they will cause instability. We also had a 3 hour mission with 18 aircrafts, Mi-8, A-10C, Uh-1H and Ka-50s. We had a few clients dropping out due to DCS crashes, the stability is much better now, but not good enough. Imo, the server should allow longer timeouts prior to closing the session and if a client have high packet loss it should be quarantined, and "frozen" until it's stable again. This will resolve many disconnect issues and warping incidents.

+1

Anyone sorted the CTD on MP join yet? We had 1/20 that couldn't join yesterday. He did a repair without success. Is it possible to wipe your saved games folder and reload your bindings from a backup? My gut feeling is that the issues is related to some old junk in there..

As the lead for the formation i added a "little twist" to the landing. We came in 90 degrees off the runway, and did an overhead break. Left side did a left break, and right side did a right break, and the first one down that opened the canopy on the parking won the race. Only one member survived the mayhem. So congratulations Agaton! :) I frapsed the chaos, and will post a movie later.. :lol:

WUUUUUTUUTUUTUTUTUTU!!!"!"!"!""" :doh::doh::doh::doh::doh: (as a side note, everyone on the server got booted when the client tried to check with Master server..)

Oh please ED, let us trade our upgrade keys for a regular, all it takes is a simple form where we can provide both keys and receive a new full version.

In the A-10 you will trim constantly, after a while you won't even think about it.

If you want to do really nice flares you should pitch up when you are above the threshold so the TVV is pointing at the end of the runway. Reduce power when main wheels touch the ground and extend full SB. There is a bunch load of videos on YouTube.

ECM and ECCM is one of the most classified things out there when it comes to aviation. Even 30 year old stuff is classified because you don't want the counterpart to see what you knew then, because then it would be easier to estimate what you know now. 99.99% of the people that are involved or have been involved in SIGINT would rather die then expose classified info, the other 00.01 are traitors. (I'm not talking about Snowden, this thread should not derail. I'm talking about SIGINT aimed towards other nations radar systems and such)

If you switch your TGP to both you still don't see the laser, you see the IR pointer with NVG's ;) And at night, that is the best way for a OA-10 to designate targets for Ka-50's.

In 2013 nothing is free, and if it's free, it's in 2D ;) Good suggestion about the DLC. But IMHO ED can do whatever they want after they've released the F/A-18, I wouldn't care if they spent 2 years working on EDGE and not releasing anything else. So gief hi-fi fastmover plix! :D

I don't know if the Russian engineer didn't want the SAI to be better, or if ED has failed with the modeling. Anyhow, it sucks, and doing some combat turns will make it go crazy. I don't even uncage it anymore.

The 87's are hopelessly ineffective aswell. I dropped one 87 on 6 inf and one truck. The truck and two inf died, even though all targets where covered with bomblets. No way in hell they would've survived IRL. Weapon effectiveness is degrading for every patch. ED really need to sort out blast radius, shrapnel and pressure dmg. It's getting ridiculous.

Rofl, you only forgot the 49 steps to get the Ka-50 started, airborne and weapon systems activated... ;)

Oh please Viper........ :doh:

Are talking about the light source? I dunno, can check tonight.

And that's why i wrote So according to you, lo-fi customers do not like ED on Facebook. And thus, ED is lacking two communication with that group of customers.

IAS MAX worked yesterday. And you are correct, H is altitude warning, and that works too :D
