I think the topic should bei changed then not the discussion should bei closed. because the whole thread is about comparing the Litning vs the Sniper pod. All agreed that the Sniper is modeled very well. The problem apears when you compare the pods. I dont think ED needs more evidence to know that the Sniper is well simulated and the Litning was an early try to get a usable pod inplemented to make gbus etc possible. It was early access not more.

In my opinon the Litning pod should be downgraded. There is no other option in my opinon. The perfect picture though all digital zooms and slew movements is far unrealistic for the AN/AAQ-28. I think realism was the main aspect which differents DCS from other sims like warthunder etc. Sorry for the old eyes or the planes which dont have the sniper pod. But the F16 has its limits as every other planes has this limites. And the F16 should have the most advanced pod in DCS with the AN/AAQ-33. I we all agree with that. To leave a less capaple pod IRL overpowered in this game because some people would be furios is the wrong way when you say "as real as it gets". DCS should be a simulation and when it must be downgraded because of DCS is progressing this is the way to go. If you dont want it, there are many other sims that dont have this claim!

Exactly not Most guys are absolutely happy with the implementation of the Sniper ATP. But in contrast to this realistic implementation it becomes more and more clear to a lot more players that the Litning pod is not modeled well. Thats all, I think!

Yeah I tested the both pod too. And the Litening is far superior then the Sniper ATP. Thats unrealistic of course but thats how it is at the moment. Especially when slewing the pod the Litning has always the super sharp and clear view even with most digital zoom. Dont get me wrong: I like the implementation of the sniper very much, the reality isnt that easy and I like how it is modeled - as real as it gets! But Im afraid that nobody will take the Sniper ATP as long as the Litning is that unrealisticly modeled and that far superior. The Litning Pod needs to be refined in my opinon!

The question is will the lightning pod will be downgraded to realistic standarts or not. The Sniper pod is by far the Most advanced pod in term of picture quality. Now in DCS it is more blurry then the Atflir, Lightning or even Lantirn pod. That is a problem. A downgrade would be good in terms of realism but will starte a rage for those who can not mount the Sniper pod.

I know this is not beeing welcomed in this threat but in this interview they laugh about the flightmodel of the DCS F18C "hornet on crack". Minute: 9:07 My post is NOT intended to crush the "Praise of the hornet" or the Hornet Fans. I like it to fly too. But I think realism should be the first priority this far. Yes, I know we are getting a F35 and yes no model in DCS is implemented like IRL but this was the high standard for DCS for years. At the moment the hornets turns out everything in a rate fight and thats what they are laughing about in DCS. I think this comments are a real oppertunity. Its the chance to pick this up and talk to those guys about the flight model. The good the bad and whats needs to be changed in DCS. Thats a really good opertunity! Take it, ED!

I found cracks in my pressure plate too. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? Or is there a 3d print template for this? Thanks!

Had no tone either Yesterday and my wingmen had no tone too. But bombs went well. We both were surprised that there is a problem with the tone right now...

It doesnt work for me in the decent DCS version. I selected as player but I can only see the plane in the external view and its flown by AI.

I cant load a mission only with the triggers in briefing room. There is in error notification. When I load another briefing room mission which has the triggers manually included, it deletes the triggers when I click on generate new mission.

Yeah I know. But I want to build the missions with briefing room and I cant get a template mission in there. Thats my problem!

Hallo, 1) I want to copy Trigger zones from one mission to another on the same map. Select them with the toll Ctrl+C and I can copy them anywhere in the same mission. When I close the mission and open the other mission Ctrl+V dosnt work or dosnt do anything. Same map, same spot. On some other cases it works but this time it doesnt. I dont know why... 2) How can I copy a lot of triggers from one mission to another? I want to do a campaign and Im fed up with doing the same triggers for departure and arrival for every mission from scratch. I cant handle it via the mission.lua. I have no clue with the lua code. Any other option? Edit: Im using briefing room for the basic setting of my missions so I cant do a template mission and work form this for the following missions. Thanks!

Thanks for clarafication. That was not known to me. You say the stabilization mode is on even when the yaw AP is completly off, right? Before my stand of information from @AeriaGloria Autopilot Guide sounds a bit different. There it sounds more then the stabilization mode is only active, when the yaw AP is on. But its not 100% clear in this guide. It left space for your explaintation, that stabilization is on all the time no matter of the yaw AP engaged or disengaged. In your logic the microswitches are only there to turn the yaw AP with its only heading hold function on and off because stabilization mode is on all the time, right? "Section B: Section B, Part I: The system in reality and Operation. A. When feet are on pedals in Mi-8 (micro switches pressed) the heading hold does nothing. In Mi-24P, the Yaw channel enters Stabilization mode. B. when feet are off pedals in Mi-8 (micro switches released), the yaw AP goes into heading hold mode and maintains heading using its 20% authority (18% in Mi-24P), and when it reaches this limit it will use the hydraulic damper in the pedals SDV-5000-OA (which usually just slows down pedal movement) to trim the pedals for you to maintain heading. The only difference between Mi-8 Yaw channel with Mi-24P in reality is that, when the yaw AP is not in heading hold and feet are on pedals (micro switches pressed), Yaw AP goes into a Stabilization Mode."

Thats practical but I think you miss in b) that if the microswitches are pressed and the Yaw AP is on it will funktion as a damper/stabilizer. When the microswitches are not pressed (feets are off the padles) it will go in heading hold. If you turn off the yaw AP completly you will not have the stablization / dampening effekt to the HIND FM. But you are right, the damper / stabilizer is not realy needed in the Hind but many people dont get the difference in the two modes of the yaw AP.

Had the same idea and I want to open a topic for Basepohl. You came first by a few hours. We need Basepohl because it was the only base for GDR Mi-24P. Thanks for opening.

If you want to use this option you should bind the microswitch key to your paddles not the yaw AP channel. If you deactivate the AP you don't have yaw stabilisation too.

Perfect this would be perfect. Thanks a lot!!! Happy Easter!

Cochem near Büchel is missing too. There was the Bunker of the federal bank of germany which stored a new currency to replace the D-Mark in case of war. It was called the BBK2. It was feared that the east would fake the D-Mark and flood the BRD. But Cochem as a hole is missing completely.

Hey, I have a very special problem in the HB F4E. I wrote to the devs via discord but dont get any answer, so I will try it here. I have a problem with my inputs only on the F4. For Heli I use a sidewinder FFB2 stick (axis inverted in special FFB option for all modules). For the Jets I use the TM Warthog Hotas. Works well with all modules expect the F4. If the FFB2 stick is pluged in (USB only) the TM Hotas is not functional as normal. The Problem even stays the same when inputs are all cleared out, the FFB2 is deactivated and even when the FFB2 has no AC connection. The Warthog Joystick inputs are recognized too but it fights a permanent pitch up momentum when the MSFFB2 is connected. Even when I deactivate the MSFFB2 in the controlls panel the inputs are still there. With AC power or not for the MSFFB2 doesnt matter, the problem stays the same. So the axis are with no bindes and the MSFFB2 is deactivated but the problem is still there. I think it has to do with the trimm. The trimm doesnt work. The pitch neadle is moving as it should but the stick in the cockpit stays in position and no effekt to the FM from the trim is noticeable. While flying the plane is pitching up as hell and you cant counter that with trimm down. Even if the neadle is complety down, it has no effect at all. I can counter with the TM Warthog Hotas with permanent pitch down pressure on the stick, but that is unflyable. The autopilot will not engage and you have to permanetly push the nose down to fly straight. I only can get rid of this when I close DCS, plug out the USB Cable of the MSFFB2 and restart DCS or when I deactivate the Force Feedback in the general DCS settings. But then I cant use the F4 or the heli at the same server without leaving the server, deactivate the FFB option and join again only to fly the F4. I spoke with ED about that but they have no clue. Maybe HB can add a option in the special options of the F4 to deactivate Force Feedback only on the F4 like the Gazelle has? The F4 is one of my absoulte favorites but the helis too. Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

Hope they push Out a hot fix for the yaw problem and the laser.

It will be soon standalone... But need some time till release.

Solved this issue. It was this bug from the recent update. Probably the coms are made through a vihicle on the ground or some workaround in the missions. When I deleted the Su30 Mod the vihicles were there again in all the other missions in the ME and the Palestreal 25 missions are working again.

no im not on steam but never did a rollback before

When the radio is not setup correctly (f.e. wrong ch.) you get a notification to check the radio settings again. But if you can comunicate via F10 menu it should be fine. Yes, it put the middle console switch to presets. Done it multiple time some weeks ago and it worked fine. If I could I would go to the version before update and would check it myself but I cant downgrade... Batteries on curcuit brakers all on Inverters auto or manual Radio switch to R863 check ICS swtich set to radio switch chanel 2 select presets middle console turn vol up middle console

Guys I have no idea. It doesnt work in all missions. Its all set correctly but I cant hear any answers anymore. No station (Ch. 2 ATC or Ch. 3 TacCom). Downloaded new missions and there is still no answer. The answers dont appear written in the upper right corner, only the hearable own player voice. I thought it was because of the new save function and the triggers might be broken but if you tested it to this should not be the case. I played this missions a while ago with no problems at all.
