DNS is used to convert URLs like forum.dcs.world into IP addresses for the computer. So basically turning a name into a number. This is cached locally on your system to speed up the network traffic. Now ED changed the number behind the name. So you have to clear/flush your local DNS cache. 

 

Hope it helps.

[The F-4E Phantom II Prepares | F-16C Pilot Progress | F/A-18C Operation Green Line by Badger 633]

Thanks @AdrianL! Especially for the link. Didn't know that. Could have been communicated a little better. But now I know.

[The F-4E Phantom II Prepares | F-16C Pilot Progress | F/A-18C Operation Green Line by Badger 633]

My bad. Should have searched better. Heatblur already answered about pre-order on Steam and made a very good offer

As always they are the best! Would have been nice to have this offer mentioned in the newsletter as well.

[The F-4E Phantom II Prepares | F-16C Pilot Progress | F/A-18C Operation Green Line by Badger 633]

So far, the explanation for no pre-order on Steam was that an exact release date is needed. Now we have date and time but still no pre-order. What is the new reason? Maybe just admit that ED doesn't want to offer pre-orders on Steam anymore?

A little hard to read but great info. Thanks The_Fragger and Good luck.

I got tears in my eyes that we finally got some good news for the Bo-105. Was worried that it is vaporware although the model is such a great one. Hope to hear more about it soon.

[DCS Newsletter discussion 17th February 2023 - RAZBAM F-15E Pre-order]

vor 15 Stunden schrieb BIGNEWY:

the above is incorrect

The developer chose not to offer the 30% pre-order on Steam due the small margins from the Steam fees + the discount.

The F-15E will of course be on Steam in the future at 20% off when released.

I just hope that other 3rd party developers will not follow this trend. In my opinion all customers should be treated equally and have similar access to Pre-orders/EAs/discounts. Or otherwise ED and 3rd parties should stop selling via Steam. Feeling like a second class citizen here.

Also no BO-105? Or did i just over look?

Looks amazing. I just hope the system programming and flight modelling will be on a similar level. This work of art really deserve it.

[EP-13 won't cycle to the next missile]

Since unlimited ammo is unrealistic anyways. Could the 3-minute spin up requirement for replaced mavs be removed in that case? Currently training missions are less useful and effective.

[Universal Training Mission]

Hi @Killshot0597,

thanks for the great training mission!

I have a questions regarding version 1.05. Can it be that the frequency fixes (252 Mhz) for tankers Texaco 2-1 and Texaco 3-1 have been lost again? In version 1.05 they seem to be back to 251 Mhz:

An idea: You could add  a moving convoy on a road to the training area. This would be great for practicing strafe or high-drag bomb attacks!
 

Regards

Christian

[DML - Mission Creation Toolbox [no Lua required]]

vor 12 Minuten schrieb cfrag:

Huh. Now that's an embarrassment. Looks like I completely forgot that. Embarking troops reference a helicopter group, and since the original gets deleted, the clones can't find it. Since I have very little experience with embarking troops, can I trouble you to throw together a functioning mission (no DML) that uses embarking troops and post it here, and I'll then add the relevant code to DML to support that as well.

 

Wow, that was quick.

As I said, I'm no expert either but the attached mission w/o DML works for me.

On the infantry there is an "Embark to transport" action defining a zone:

The helicopter has an "Embarking/Disembarking" action defining which troops to load:

Hope that it helps and thanks for working on this!

[DML - Mission Creation Toolbox [no Lua required]]

Hi cfrag!

I'm new to mission editing and DML. So the chances are big that I'm doing something wrong.

I do not get the Embarking/Disembarking commands working with troops and AI controlled helis spawned by clone zones. Is this expected, a bug or am I doing something wrong. Would be great if you could take a look at the attached mission where I tried to re-create the issue with a very simple mission.

Thanks!

Because much of our Mi-24P team has been assisting with the AH-64D project, you may have noticed that updates have been slim recently

I would say this is your answer. Don't expect any bigger changes in the near future.

[RADIO ARC 210]

But why is he busy and why was he moved away from an almost finished product? That doesn't make sense at all. As I said, this was sold as non-EA product. So the priority should be to provide the complete product as described via the feature list. I'm pretty sure that no customer expect multiple months if an item of a supposedly finished product is marked as coming soon.

Early access does take a long time for sure, I totally understand if you are disappointed by the long time scales for development, but without it we would not be able to bring these modules to you all.

Thanks 

But A-10C II is not an Early-Access module. It was and still is sold as a finished product with the radio marked as coming soon. I can very well understand the ED handling of EA. But this case is different and I really hope ED will rethink their priorities here.

I can understand being frustrated that the Viggen hasn't seen major changes for a while, but not shipping changes with today's update is exactly what I announced in this post. I'm not sure how I can be clearer.

 

This might means the Viggen patch will arrive towards late November mid-December rather than the middle-November as initially envisioned.

Fixed it for you

Thanks for keeping us up-to-date and looking forward to the upcoming changes.

[F/A-18C Kneeboard Suite - Updated 23 October 2025]

Thank you so much Minsky for your great work! I already use all parts of the kneeboard suite and really like the formatting, style and info provided. Very high quality and it looks like you can even improve it.

 

Would love to have this type of kneeboards also for other modules, but I understand that this is probably already a lot of work.
