Thank you, I will try to train more. It's just, F-15E feels a little bit different than other aircrafts in this matter and I wasn't sure.
-
For me performance is better than in Apache, I have no complaints, even with mirrors on. I kinda like that even after years since release modules still receive updates. If there's any software I'm continuously checking release notes for, it's DCS for sure.

It's probably me and maybe that's exactly how trim works in real F-15E... but I'm unable to trim the aircraft pitch properly - for level flight or selected descent rate at given speed - any single pitch trim change feels like it's too much. I've compared it with F-86 (if it's any comparison) where one could go down with trimmed aircraft to the runway almost without having to touch the stick... not with F-15E. I assume I could set then appropriate speed for given pitch setting, that would help me to preserve altitude or vertical speed but wouldn't that implicate I have only certains speeds I can pitch for?

I was so angry, when RAZBAM ignored Steam users, but - who am I trying to fool - I bought it immediately when it showed up on Steam. I don't mind the price difference, it's just we were completely ignored earlier - for me it was about fairness, not the money. And I have to say I love it, we were - me and my colleague - taking off, flying and landing in a formation, occupying both seats, trying to figure out things ourselves (learning how to set radio while flying by the tanker isn't best time nor place), and we had so much fun I can't recall having in a really long time. I have mixed feelings about Falklands but F-15E wasn't a mistake. And that attention to details... I approached airport with 200lbs of fuel. Barely get there with engines spluttering and electrical systems going off over the threshold and steering pressure dying after touchdown, just amazing - F-15E is a living organism! I can't wait when I'll have spare time to fly again.

Does anyone have this problem with multiplayer menu item not being active when logged in properly to DCS? I had to wait a few minutes, it eventually became enabled itself, then I had to wait for some time again to refresh the server list. Much, much longer than usual. And it's not only me, my colleague (different part of the country) was waiting even longer than me and multiplayer never became enabled for him.

I don't think I'm matching the imaginary interlocutor you are responding to, I also don't think name calling is a well known attribute of maturity.

You're constantly missing the point, not sure if on purpose but let me explain last one time. I was given the ability to invest in DCS on this specific platform (i.e. Steam) - I didn't enforce this option on anyone. Since it's not one time buy, it's a continuous process and it requires a lot of commitment on my side (incl. financial) I'm treating the whole thing as a kind of contract - I was aware of Valve's cut and to support ED and vendors I decided I'll be buying every possible aircraft, terrain and campaign (I'm missing some campaigns that seemed tad old), including everything RB's released as a sign of my commitment, support and respect, and I did. And today this contract was broken, I'm not treated the same way as other players. I didn't set price limit for F-15 module on Steam, I didn't tell RB how much their module should be priced on Steam (it wouldn't be the first time when prices differ a bit), I just impatiently refreshed Steam client on 15th and 17th. And they just ignored the whole platform... and the reason is - money... even though I don't care (too much, It would just be a little bit more explaining to do to my wife) about what value it would be 30% of off. And I'm reading in this topic that I should switch to standalone version to support ED and vendors more - because apparently - as "this specific platform" user, I don't support them enough, and then I'm reminding myself there's just nothing more I can do to support them (incl. RAZBAM) because I already did everything I can on "this specific platform", because I wanted to prove my support and commitment... I feel like someone is slapping my face. Sure, maybe I was wrong, maybe I'm naive, maybe I'm dramatic (but I didn't start the whole "support them more" thing) for sure I'm disappointed - I realised the commitment and respect of the effort was only on my side. You are correct, I didn't - I was thinking whatever I was thinking while it's just "give us money and shut up".
-
Refusal? What refusal? As I wrote earlier no one is forcing anyone. I just had different expectations with all the fuss on Steam. And, no worries, lI'm not gonna buy, so RAZBAM isn't going to lose any money.
-
I have 75 DCS modules on Steam (including all RAZBAM's), Steam has its own advantages and I could probably consider moving for a good reason but cash grab isn't one. ED even had the audacity to post release page on Steam linking to... ED shop, it's easier for me to ignore this (and RAZBAM's future ones because of middle finger) modules. There are plenty of other modules coming to DCS and MSFS to keep me busy.
-
I bought all aircrafts, maps and most of the campaigns... and I mean all of them (you can check my account), and I did it on Steam because I could, i.e. someone decided earlier to make the game available on Steam. I'm not going to move now, it's too late. And I won't let anyone to treat me as a 2nd class citizen. I understand RAZBAM may have reasons, but I have mine. I was checking Steam on 15th, now on 17th and then I got the news, disappointed but I will manage, I won't forget though.
-
They don't like my money? Well then, I'm not going to force them.
-
Oh, I read some comments about it recently - people called it "collateral damage", and the piece was about why shelling of Mariupol's maternity hospital was justified, which came from "special operation" apologists.

That's obvious, and that's exactly what Wargaming described in their post - they planned first, now executing. It may be PR, there may be loopholes but this single statement - may be costly for them and so it's a clear step, that required courage. I don't, actually I'm not relying on Ukrainian sources. Same was true for Wargaming, wasn't it? And I still had a material to base this topic on. Yet they were able to deliver clear message - position themselves in this tragic situation, naming evil - evil. Something in, in my opinion, ED failed miserably.

https://www.facebook.com/wargaming.net/posts/10159777484419481 In the light of the recent tragic news from around Kyiv... I would buy all the ED modules I don't yet own if ED would make the same move, just to show my support for this decision.

Intercepting radial using NS 430, flight plan and "Direct to" button
elewarr replied to elewarr's topic in Bugs and Problems
Thank you! I found your post while searching for similar reports. I thought I'll create this specific report anyway. That's a bummer. With vectors approach only it's quite an important feature I think, to be able to properly line up with an airport and not just "go straight there and we'll see (or not)". -
I'm trying to use NS 430 to intercept a runway course, instead of flying to the airport VOR directly. I'm not sure, maybe I'm doing something wrong but I'm unable to set the intercept course. 1. I have a flight plan UGSS to UG23... 2. instead of flying straight to UG23 I'd like to intercept proper course to the runway, so I'm going to UG23 on the FPL 1st page and pressing "Direct to"... 3. in the waypoint editor I'm going to CRS field and starting edition... 4. changing thge course from 294 to 100 (ignoring if the course actually intercepts runway, just a sample value)... 5. pressing "Enter" - and that's where I think it should behave differently - there should still be course 100 as set in 4th step and I should be able to accept it, instead original 294 is shown - it's not the 100 I just have set Could any one help me set the intercepting course, please?

The price on Steam for DCS: NS 430 Navigation System presented on "all modules" is actually the price of DCS: NS 430 Navigation System for SA342 Gazelle, eventually - when on the actual product page it shows both items, 2nd one with 50% promotion. When both modules (from 1st point) are added to basket, Steam shows information about packages in the basket containing duplicating items. When DCS: NS 430 Navigation System for SA342 Gazelle is removed the information about duplicates is gone. But when just DCS: NS 430 Navigation System is bought it does not contain DCS: NS 430 Navigation System for SA342 Gazelle, i.e. when license is bound to standalone DCS World it shows DCS: NS 430 Navigation System and DCS: NS 430 Navigation System for L-39С Cockpit, nothing about Gazelle and I can't see it in the cockpit. I spent some time with a colleague trying to understand what we're actually going to buy.

I was pressing F2 multiple times well into the mission - trying to find my colleague. I could see that when I was pressing F2 performance was dropping till the freeze. The feeling was similar to first launch and a shader compilation after getting onto a new aircrafts cockpit (if I'm getting it right). I moved from Steam version to standalone one. Should I enable something? I mean, when I see a crash report dialog I'm trying to fill it up with useful information but I didn't see it for a while now. Thank you, will try.
