MVS-Viper

Great addition to DCS. Thanks for the app ihopi. Reading and using the MFD's on the i-Pad is instead of trying to make them out on the computer screen is a game changer .

"HOLD SHORT" (of the active runway) is another good ATC command to have. This alerts you of possible incoming traffic on the runway you are going to cross or take off from.

Add to the ATC Pick List: "DECLARING AN EMERGENCY" Tower then grants you priority landing and puts all other A/C behind you in the landing que.

I found the culprit. "SSLR". I turned it off, and no more problems with lock-ups. Also much better FPS. That option did not exist in stable version 2.5.5.41371.1.

Thanks for looking into this. I tried the DCS Repair and the DCS Crashing advice. The problem still exists. Today's log is attached. dcs.log

While in the pit, looking down at control panels will freeze the view in the latest updates. It does not happen in the stable version (2.5.5.41371.1). Nevada map in Free Flight Mission. Will post two track files, on in stable version (2.5.5.41371.1), and the other is the latest beta. The FPS in the stable bersion is 10-15 FPS' better than the beta. Same video settings in both versions of the game. Beta Version.zip Stable Version.zip

Not a complete solution, but using Overkill's rudder axis set-up, does help with NWS in the F-16. I set my deadzone to 4, and curvature to 25. Here is a link to Overkill's video:

Been waiting a while for this one to be published. Thanks for all of the hard work Chuck. Outstanding as always.

Here are the mission files for anyone to try. I modified the one for the F-16 following CoBlue's excellent instructions, and included the original mission file. I tweaked the wind a bit lower on the ground (on the F-16 file) to try to keep the jet from flipping over after landing. Still a heck of a challenge for those who want to practice difficult landings.

Thanks for the tip CoBlue :thumbup:

If you enjoy the F-16 (and have messed around with Falcon BMS or Falcon 4), buy it during the next sale. Yes, it is not complete, but (IMO) it is very enjoyable in its present level of development. DCS/ED continues to roll out updates and improvements on a regular basis - which is great. As far as the FM goes - it seems pretty good to me (but I'm not an F-16 driver in RL).

There is an awesome mission on the DCS F-15 beta module out this weekend. It is landing in Dubai - very challenging (Rain, Strong Crosswind, Lightning). Can we get that mission for the F-16? Thanks.

Well said. I could not agree with you more :thumbup:. Thank you to all of the staff at ED/DCS! Keep it going.

The confusion might be that people are looking for the guide in the stable build. You need too look for it right where Gas said it was - in the openbeta folder. The guide is right there. If you do not have the openbeta download, you will not see the updated guide .

Great news, thanks.

Thanks Deadpool :beer:. Yeah, I really like the flexibility and options in Tacview.

Deano, I know you are trying to help, but bro, settle down. Your comments tend to lean on the negative side - try the glass half full on the next one :thumbsup: Just something to think about. The reply was perfect, and what I was looking for until we have a better solution.

Thanks! That will be perfect for now.

Is there a way to save your cockpit settings so that you do not have to set up the Chaff/Flare dispense quantites (with the ICP) each time you load the sim? Thanks for any help on this.

Something like TacView would be great - at some point (with the in game graphics). In the mean time, TacView is pretty awesome to use. It reminds me of the old ACMI in Falcon 4.0 - but much better. https://www.tacview.net/product/en/

Ok, thanks for the feedback.

Yeah, thanks for the input, but we are looking at this from two different perspectives. You are thinking about making the change once you are in the pit. I'm thinking about being able to make the change before I select my mission. Again, this is just a wish list and not a to-do list :thumbup:

Like this: Thanks.

Lol, np. So good question. Here is where I would like to see the addition (it can be in a pick-list format like the other options on the screen capture below):

Wow, easy Don. Btw, decaf may be the way to go for you. If I thought it was the easiest way to go, I would not have posted here. Look, relax, this is named the wish list thread for a reason.
