  1. Negative, still happening in Beta update of May 18th 2023
  2. that they know about it probably see this post : i've experienced same problem in the Pandemic ka50 problem, infantry is nearly impossible to kill, rocket pods and HE gun alike were only draining their HP but not killingthem
  3. Trains seem to sit just half a wheel below train tracks.
  4. hey, thanks for the suggestion. I tried with and without the datalink option and with and without the EPLRS default option too. Same result in all scenarii, jtac options in the f16, not in any of the 2 choppers
  5. Hello, I tried to have jtac designate target for choppers, but the JTAC radio item is not visible. I don't know if it's by design, i didn't find any mention of aircraft only in the ME manual. Attached is a simple mission with 1 f16, 1 mi24 and 1 ka50. 1 enemy group and 2 jtac with "perform task- FAC assign group" (1 for the chopper and their lower freq, one for the F16) As pilot of the F16, i do see the JTAC radio item, but either as hind or kamov pilot, it's not showing. If it has always been the case by design, appologies for only finding out now hind_jtacTest.miz
  6. Hi, in the Mission 01, i think the preset as given in the pdf kneeboard are swaped for ch3 & 4. Returning to the boat, Lead tells to switch to CH3 for marshal (which match the pdf) but in my plane, ch3 = 256 (texaco) and ch4 = 144 (Marshal)
  7. Ah thank you, i was unaware of this. So building on your idea, i did it like this: Place the unit in the scene (i like the ground vehicule/ fortification/ tacan beacon) A- set the frequency in a standard waypoint action B- add a triggered action for the object (3rd tab): Transmit message (whatever sound file) for 60s (don't check loop ) C- add 3 triggers: 1) mission_start: set flag 1 2) Switched condition/ flag is false (1) / flag on (1) 3) Repetitive Acion / Time since flag (60)/ AI TASK PUSH (the action created in step B) , FLAG OFF(1) it's a bit cumbersome for just 1 beacon..but still cheaper than launching the while scripting framework and whatnot
  8. i'm all for supporting this endeavour - We need more era focused units! no point in fighting a SA15 with an F86 . both from fighting and support vehicles. Special vehicle like the SCUD last year gave very interesting scenario oportunities. I'd like to see more of that kind of things. - Building with proper texture according to map (grass green bunker in desert map => no thank ) I fly in a group, most don't have wwii asset pack cause we don't fly them, not the other way around. So if there was a good unit pack for a reasonable price (think CA/ wwII pack) it will be a no brainer. Everybody playing DCS is already throwing hundreds € in gear and module, stop pretending you won't buy another one . Looking at the recent amazin work of the French_Pack, it gave us mission makers plenty of will and ideas to create more focused action: exactly what DCS lacks: game content ! Go @Battlefield Productions !
  9. Hello, reporting an issue with the "Transmit message" action: - in the ME I create a radio beacon for navigation with 2 actions on a unit : o Set Frequency o Transmit message(tried on loop and duration 3600s) - I host the mission on a dedicated server that pauses when no players are connected - I join the server, test the beacon, it works as expected - I disconnect and reconnect to the same server: I don't receive the beacon anymore.
  10. Since last friday update, the F10 ruler tool doesn't really work. the ruler is drawn from a position (i can't understand the logic of it) to an offset position of the mouse cursor. It's unusable. It works normally if not in VR.
  11. 1- During a mission (single player) where i set up a warehouse and connected it to an airfield suppliers 2- i open the F10 map , click on the warehouse and on the little '>' button to view its content 3- when i change category by pressing the radio buttons on the left, the list isn't not refreshed, i must close the popup and reopen it as in step 2 to see the proper equipment list.
  12. Hello, i'm digging this old post to share an experience i had today, and I wasn't aware this module was simulating failure to some extend :) Flying in caucasus in snowstorm with low temp, i had both engine ice protection and pitot heat. after take off all the pressure instrument failed (speed, VVI and altimeter) so i guessed i had both pitot and static port blocked. But didn't know what to do, followed with my flight plan and after a very stressfull cloud descent , instrument came back to life. Very stressfull and awesome! Thanks Aviodev if it was all intentional ;) love this module.
  13. yep, i confirm the west to east, no snap bug. Also, on the topic of trains, I added a train in the editor for the player to search, but when searching the area, multiple trains were spotted, sometimes on the same track (going same direction at least :) ) with barely a 1km separation between them. Is it because of civilian trafic not disabled ? does this option have an impact on train too ? Are train randomly generated on the map or is it like in the Caucasus map (long time ago) where each train had a schedule ? otherwise, very cool ME tool to create train :thumbup:
  14. late to the party, but can definitely recommend : Low Level Hell. A little bird story during Vietnam. https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B001QAP3JQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_d_asin_title_o09?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And as said in first post Pierre Closterman WWll diaries : :thumbup: https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B01068B5Y0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_d_asin_title_o01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  15. Kinda undirectly related problem but we noticed (me and friends) that if you do your binding for an aircraft (we tried 2 ) from the menu, without launching a mission, the binding are all gone and lost when you either start a mission or restart game. They're only saved when within a mission (solo or MP).
  16. Hi, have you checked Lino's Map ? https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1587399/ https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=162198
  17. No other dev have ever abandonned support of a developped and sold module. Yes support and bugFix can take some time (hawk, mirage, [you name it]...) but eventually they all get upgraded. (and btw, i got the gazelle during the sales, and despite its "different" FM, i love it)
  18. hello, learning to use this great framework, I tried to create a coop mission where Red-AI is balanced automaticaly according to the number of BLUE player. (so 1 player -> 1 red spawn, 2 players -> 2 red spawn ...) I tried to use the AIBalancer, but it has the (documented ) opposite effect which is spawning (Num slots - Num players) units. Any ideas on how to achieve that ?
  19. hi, and welcome to the wonder of VR flying, you'll never go back :) Regarding dcs, i still use the mouse, it's at hand reach, and thanks to the ingame 3D mouse cursors, it's quite handy to click everywhere. Map the hotas as the real one or follow advices from the Chuck guides, for the rest I find it easier to remember where to press a button in the VR cockpit rather than a tricky hotas binding, especially when flying different modules.
  20. Yes ! I got all 4 maps, and this is my favorite already. For several reason: - it's gorgeous ! (well, at least if not more than the other) - It run maybe smoother (because you know ...desert is simplier than trees to render) - It gives a reason to overfly water (which only happens in normandy for some scenario) - It is, with Caucasus, the only map with relevant modern era combat scenario !! and this is the biggest sellpoint for me. Because Red flag in NTTR is cool but ....you know you can only do so much "training missions" and russian aren't gonna invade Las vegas anytime soon. Same with Normandie, even with Brexit, Brits aren't gonna bomb france with harriers . So, yes, worth every penny, plus with F14/ F18 and naval operations, this will be a new dawn for DCS for the next years, board the train ;-) And for the couple of hours i spend both in air and in the editor, it works very well : AI / ATC/ Radio nav ..didn't encounter any bugs
  21. Indeed, but most of them have VOR stations, which are , as you mentioned, quite weak/attenuated too.
  22. Had the Mig21 crash on cold start on PG. Can others try some hot start and Air start ?
  23. I confirm the NDB works for the L39 already, flew 1h30 yesterday to do my first map tour. Though there are very few of them. the airfields I checked didn't seem to have rsbn (no frequency listed in F10 map).
  24. I5 4670K+ gtx 1070 , VR with Vive. SuperSampling at 1.5 and deffered shading on. average 40FPS (totally fine :)) 1h20 flight of 2 L39 (multiplayer) from south UAE to north of the map without any major FPS. It's on par or better than Nevada. Dubai is much smoother than las vegas. And the level of detail of this map is incredible ! This will be terrific for rotary wings and Combined Arms player. Best map ever ! (both for the quality and all the scenarii coming to mind)
