I think you fail to realise that alot of servers allow HOT starts and don't require any alignment or startup in F/A-18's, F-16's, M2000's ect ect. In saying this you fail to realise aswell that some FC3 aircraft can only start one engine at a time and with the MiG-29 for example you have to wait even after starting both engines 1 by 1 you need to wait for the damper. I can start and align an F-16 faster than the FC3 Fulcrum... You also forget that rearm and refuel is not always used on a Cold start, after a successful sortie its very frustrating for your wingman to have to wait for you to turn off and spoil down your engines, then refuel and rearm and turn them all back on again, meanwhile hes been rearmed and refueled for a solid 5-6 minutes already because he doesn't need to shut down or even open his cockpit which is a HUGE advantage which really honestly just blows the "45 second startups" out of the water as an advantage. and sure you can say that it would be faster if you just reslot but that is incredibly inefficient especially in a server with alot of people that either already have those slots taken up or would be really annoyed with seeing someone reslot every fucking landing they make. So disagreeing with this just because such few aircraft can start moving only 45 seconds in which I believe is bull<profanity> because it takes about 40 seconds to get all your armament depending on how much you are bringing with you and only after that can you even touch your engine start unlike Full fidelity which can rearm and refuel all while starting from a cold start and have cockpit shut, is just pure ignorance.

I know this is an old post but the same situation is happening to me aswell, just want to confirm that this is a thing still.

There was a Mod or Script that made it way better a long time ago, since then I've lost it but it was such a small change that made so much difference, really just sick of being killed by light weapons in an Armoured fast moving heli. Radar Guided infantry with AK-74's that destroy my Hind engines is really just ruining it for me.

Figured it out! Was a Mod conflict, I forgot about saved games folder had some of my old mods just laying dorment ! Thanks for the help anyway! Love the Textures and really enjoying that Syria edit you uploaded recently too!

I have a few and have seen a few screenshots of the old DCS 1.5 Caucasus and noticed the Ground textures in my opinion look better and have more depth to them, but aside from that one of the biggest killers for me is that theres no more small sandy looking shallow water shorelines, along the edges of the waterlines on the map. It all just looks like a drop off into deep water unless your flying very low next to it and even then it seems very underwhelming. This could be just me but I'd love to see those shorelines again if not the ground textures, but being a free map I certainly don't expect anything.. even the new textures aren't a big improvement.

Since the New caucasus texture update all my HAS Shelters have missing texture, not sure how fix this.

Awesome job! Big fan of those Polska Hind aswell!
