I struggled with this in the beginning following Chuck's tutorials and other steps, which were all pretty much in line. JTAC would always come back with "no mark" for lasing. I then realized that JTAC had to be at a higher elevation and clear line of sight. After I figured that out everything fell in place and bombs fell on target. :)

This is true Matt. :) But guess what? I'll be watching the live stream getting my hopes up also :pilotfly:

Negative Nancy here. Are we going down this road yet again that the Viggen release is soon? I think this discussion was going on in June IIRC and we are still waiting... :)

My hopes are 2.5 in the first quarter of next year unless their estimations for this year were really far off. I guess it depends on how well the old map upgrade is coming.

Yes indeed!! :thumbup:

90% of the community can't even begin to fill their shoes. They should not sweat the small minority of the negative here and thrive on the positives they hear and read about which is a very strong majority. I don't doubt that at all. I thought I might have missed something, but again it's a small minority I am sure.

So one or two negative Nancy's are spoiling it for the rest of the community? I thought the idea of Alpha/Early release was to get feedback from the community. To be honest I really have not seen any destructive criticism. I guess it depends on the person that is doing the judging... Also FWIW I am enjoying the expanded map with the time I have had with it so far. Kudos to ED and staff.

Massive! Should be a good weekend!

Until 2.5 they will remain seperate. My understanding that 2.0 can be used to play the Normandy map. I assume they will have both NTTR & Normandy under the 2.0 executable. Agreed, but where do these modules stand as far as release status now? Seen hopes for a release this year but nothing official yet.

DCSW 2.5 and F-18C Hornet delays are now confirmed... https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2948302#post2948302

Agreed! It's the small details that go unannounced and sneak up on us that we tend not to appreciate. I am guilty of this also.

It begs the question, but can a reinstallation of the drivers (clean install) possibly have an effect also on cleaning the stuttering issue? I am having stuttering problems also again, but have not tried this. I do wonder if it's worth a try.

I was basing my question on observation. So probad, exactly what size would the update need to be just to update just the map terrain relief mesh (a.k.a. just the map mesh - not textures)? I would like to know also. Please answer this, because inquiring minds would like to know! :music_whistling:

Keep us updated on what you're seeing fellas. Some of us have to complete a work schedule. :)

I understand that Normandy will not run in 1.5.X , but will the 1.5.X beta be used somehow to validate some code for 2.0.X thus allowing the Normandy map to be released in 2.0.x ? I hope this makes sense in what I am asking. :)

Confirmed! Viggen release tomorrow! J/K! :pilotfly:

It tells me that everyone is not on the same page if that's the case or gun shy about pulling the trigger on an official announcement.

+1

+1 I can tolerate a Spit w/ Normandy & a major NTTR update for the year. When it was mentioned that the Caucasus map was going through a update to get it to the level of NTTR and 2.5 hinged on it I had my doubts it would make it this year. If those items mentioned can make it for 2016 to where I can enjoy them over my 2 week holiday time off then there will be some satifaction. :)

So true Cich. Scope creep out of control it seems.

Hoping for more clarification, but yeah it seems this is becoming the pattern. I am wondering if the Caucasus map upgrade is the bottle neck.

Did not know that...guess I missed something...thanks for the info. Then it might be possible Normandy comes in before the revamped Caucuses? <S> It seems that there is a hint that ED may go in that direction. Nothing to base it on really, but it seems to be a happy medium to satisfy some of the customer base.

I'll be excited when we get there. To be honest I grow more skeptical about 2016 now with what I read about the task list, but maybe someone can shed some light of optimism.

Hmmmmm....let me guess. Lead poison...right?

A discounted sale.
