It was a post on twitter about being able to view the briefing of a mission while in cockpit, here was nate confirming it http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1157214&postcount=105

Who else thinks this is probably one of the greatest additions? It was mentioned before on twitter for 1.1.0.8...iirc. Will save so much time and effort writing everything down, printing, phone app, etc etc. Can't wait to review briefing while on the fly (literally) this is suppose to be a nice way of saying....when you think 1.1.0.8 will be realeased? :D :D

Edit: Please note this mission is setup to restart after it is complete. If you host it, just delete the last triggers in the mission where it loads the mission (wtb dedicated server....or servman..) Hi guys, here is a mission I made for up to 6 players for MP CO-OP. It is a scripted story of a downed F-15E where you need to assist friendly forces in securing the crash site, helping with the rescue of pilot 1 and finally helping with the rescue of pilot 2. The mission it'self is pretty straight forward, about a difficulty of medium due to low-altitude sam/aaa. There will be smoke markers and scripted sequences. You could slew your TGP back to original WP your working on to see the friendly units securing that specific area once cleared. NOTE: Friendly: GREEN SMOKE Enemy: WHITE SMOKE WP1 - Crash site, enemy forces have set up a perimeter around the down F-15E. Take them out, once clear a friendly HMMV convoy will come in to secure the crash site, stand by for orders. WP2 - Pilot 1, intel reports the first pilot is being held hostage in one of the various buildings near WP2. The enemy has sealed off the entire block, all streets around the block are not safe. Take out all hostile threats to allow friendly CSAR Blackhawks to fly in, standby for orders. WP3 - Repair/Rearm/Refuel here if you do not wish to make the trip back to base as this airfield is closer. Be careful to chose the right one, as the other has enemy forces. WP4 - Intel reports Pilot 2 is located at the enemy command post. It's heavily guarded by low-altitude SAM/AAA systems. Neutralize all enemy threats. The difficult of this mission wasn't a high priority, rather a simple, forward advancing story where multiple people can take part of that was fun. Lots of targets, tougher with 2-3 people, easy with 4-6. Please let me know if any errors occur/things out of order, or suggestions. pilot search.miz

WOW. Talk about remembering where you came from. +11111!!

that was awesome

edit: pretty much what etherealn said, skipped his post, he hit the nail on the head.

to be honest, any of those cards will be great for you. I recommend the one with the highest video ram, this game eats vram with high resolutions/settings/AA. If I had to pick, the 6990 is the best (imo)

Thanks Kuky. This and the grass tweak makes this game look so much better!

I had this problem but didn't even realize it and then read this: sure enough that is the cause, couple aim 9s and tgp on one side while other doesn't have any weight really banks it!

I think it's possible if you edit the missions within the mission editor. Not sure how to go about it anymore, but for now you could always use the cheat start up. right windows key + home (I believe..). I know how to get it going and get all systems up, but it is nice to hit that once in awhile while you go afk to restroom or grab a snack, come back and plane is ready.

This should be stickied.

Just get a piece of velcro. You can then velcro it to the side of your headphones left ear speaker. Thats what I did, and it works amazingly well, and easy to take off when you dont want to use it/have it on. Doing this frees you up to nearly any headphones, I would suggest closed back ones though, because open-air headphones, you'd be blocking the air coming in/out by doing this.

currently.... I see what you did there...

Well that sucks. I really find it boring flying at 30k ft. spamming missiles, thats all people do online usually...unleash six missiles at a time, yawn..., oh well I can choose to skip it and wait for a multi-role or new helo game. But here is hoping the term fighter they used in context there isn't in regards to strictly air to air (which is what I interpreted it as anyway heh)

Wait, where is it confirmed that it will be a Fighter? It was confirmed that it was going to be a US fixed wing, but nothing about it being a fighter. Theres so much to read through these threads but could somebody just post me the link where it was officaly confirmed? if not, please change the thread title.

True...I didn't get any crashes until the last patch, now I get them every other time I fly lol :D

Try 512 every frame or 1024 every frame

Posted on the twitter page Man they are really getting things moving with nice little things (dedicated server, self shadows, mouse cursor fade away, etc)

Vega weren't you saying earlier in the beta staged how ATI Crossfire was much better multimonitor setup in DCS? I think you tried 580s and then some ATIs but now back to nvidia...any reason why? Nice setup, I get 30 to 60 fps depending on various factors with my two 580s and a i7 @ 4.3ghz and three monitors. Maybe sometime in the future I will add a third gtx 580, afterall my corsair ax 1200 psu could use something else as I am sure it's currently just yawning pushing only two 580s haha.

yup, i missed those threads.

Dynamic cockpit shadows are in the works!!! Dedicated server is in the works!!!! OH MY GOODNESS!

I see what you did there

make sure force feedback is disabled. It is on by default, i have no idea why when there is very few ffb hotas/joysticks and it just creates problems. same holds true for black shark.

Goto your options, controls and then the bottom left click MODIFIERS. Once you click that, set the pinky lever on the joystick as a modifier. Once that is set, I'd suggest going to the zoom in slow and zoom out slow commands (num* and num/ ). Bind these to whatever you like, I prefer the DMS UP as zoom in and DMS DOWN as zoom out, as this is very natural because it is the same zoom you use for the TGP just for your view with the pinky lever.
