more clips

heres a tacview clip of some bvr fights with my friend. we were messing around with ECM pods but firing the missiles near no escape zone. this is the result. i get people are gonna say "its ecm!" but i dont think the missiles should be trashed that fast and the way they get trashed is a little crazy. is this accurate?

let’s just hope they haven’t paused the development while working on the F4. and that this whole time it’s been actively worked on. I wonder how ED will balance everything else with the meteor missiles

any update on this?

i knew i wasnt crazy. im flying the ball so perfect and yet being essentially "punished" for not throwing the jet down at the last second. ill look up these threads now awesome. im gonna try a landing now with it off to see how i do!

so I have been practicing carrier landings pretty heavily. I have the entire case 1 pattern down, however, I'm struggling flying the ball. i keep the ball centered the entire time yet somehow miss the wire. I slowed down a clip of me doing it and am noticing that right as i get to the deck there's a lift that is throwing me a few feet higher and that's what was causing me to miss it. How do I counter that? fly the ball lower to account for it?

still think about this one idk how they lost all the files without having anything backed up or older versions to revert to. seems like they just called it quits when they could’ve had one of the most popular mods in dcs

im playing without MT. its weird. if i use fast mission, the plane works just fine. if i load it up in the mission editor, it will crash. not all the time but sometimes it does. earlier today it kept crashing so i took the mod out and launched dcs and then closed dcs and put the mod back in and it worked. but then when i put the f22 in my mod folder and tried flying the su it crashed. so i kept the f22 in my folder and took out the su, launched my game, quit it, put su back in mod folder and ran it again and it worked. so it seems to be off and on that it crashes.

i have the mod installed but can’t seem to get passed the briefing page. when i load into the jet the usual little brief box comes up and when i hit okay i see the checklist at the top right and then dcs freezes and crashes

that’s what i thought

thank you to all! what was weird was after this i practiced a few hours later on a different airfield and did it like 7/8 times without overshooting and i rolled right into the runway. i never set the wind in the mission editor. is it random if not specified? i never thought about wind because i’ve never touched it in the editor.

Hey all, I'm pretty new to DCS. I want to learn the fundamentals before jumping into bombing everything and I have learned how to get on speed and how to land on a straight in on an airfield, but now I am trying to learn overhead approaches so I can start to practice on the carrier after so I can begin doing missions. I've been practicing for about 2 weeks, my first problem I ran into was always overshooting the runway on my 30 degree bank back to the runway. I'd find myself so far off to the right that I didn't know where I was. After some practice I was able to land pretty consistently but always was a little off to the left. I took a few days break and when I came back I found myself having the same issue as the first time, which tells me I didn't learn correctly when I was landing. So I attached 2 clips. One when I undershot and one when I overshot, in the overshoot clip that was me just trying to deduce what is making me overshoot so I tried turning really far out from the runway to give myself more area to look at as I turned around to see where I was actually going. I think maybe in that first 180 turn maybe I'm too close still? But I'm staying 1.2-1.5nm away so that's why I am confused on if it is me being too close, so I figured I'd come on here for help. Thank you!
