My pin fell into the base as well (or at least I think it did LOL). Super frustrating, because now the two throttle grips aren't connected together as well. Winwing should design this better. Also, they're charging me 40+ dollars to buy a new pin.

That guy is just an upset REDFOR/Russian, and I say that with all due respect.

Do you guys offer training to get people started on performing real-world procedures and communicating effectively?

This is a very big problem, but what do you want me or ED to do about it? "Hi, I'll get a Su-30 with a side of all Russian ED employees being arrested." My guy, did you even read this thread?

No, you said that you knew there'd be some F-35 pilot complaining about the module, and I'm saying that what you do is get in contact with them and find out what's wrong with your module, what they don't like, etc.

This We've seen it before. What makes us think it'll be different this time? They've already dragged themselves into an EA pit, and the only way to get out of it is actually focusing on those aircraft and taking a break from trying to rush out the next biggest aircraft. A-10C II is still missing stuff, F-16, F/A-18C, etc. I can only hope though. As for the Block, yep, Block 3F or go home. I too have no interest in a pre-IOC F-35.

What you can do is work with them to make your module better. Honestly, the best depiction they'd be able to make for an F-35 would probably be having quite a lot of time to model their F-35 after a simulator. But ED's ties to the East kind makes me second guess they'd even get that opportunity.

Thanks!

Sorry, misread a post.

Totally agree. In the meanwhile, I suggest you look into things like DCS Moving Map. It's exactly in the name. If you use it with OpenKneeboard, then you can have the program display a moving map (with tons of options, different maps, symbology, etc.) and move it around to the bottom right corner of screen, adjust size, and so on. I do understand that it's not exactly like real life, since it displays your present position and can display other things, but you can most likely turn most of those off. But that's a mod. We should really get what you said in the core game, ASAP!

Of course, but even if you're not purchasing modules, the game's still going to just get larger and larger. The hotfix today was over 40 gigs for some people. You'd have to quite literally stop updating your DCS.

100% agree. I'm having to upgrade my storage to continue playing this game. Some of the things being added to this game are just unnecessary.

I'm not too fond of having a 205-gigabyte map, I'd much prefer to rock the current phase one 110 gig version. Can/will phase 2 and 3 be optional installs, like Afghanistan? Thank you

Can we expect the VRAM requirements to drop over time? It's very concerning, as it seems like I won't be able to run this map without some troubles.

Fulda Gap is releasing this month according to the recent newsletter

Awesome! Are the LCACs placeable units or just embedded onto the map? Possible asset pack?

It's not dead, they've said it's still alive. I'd be lying if I said that the lack of WIP posts is a bit concerning, but according to them, it's not dead. So...kinda doubtful but yeah

It's been a couple of updates/patches, can you please bump it again? FPS loss during firing a Vikhr is something that should get fixed ASAP. Really bad considering the Vikhr is something everybody uses.

There are three main reasons we don't have modern Russian aircraft 1: Not enough information 2: Geopolitics 3: Safety for ED employees As we know, ED is a Swiss and Russian company, with employees otherwhere, which obviously means they have to deal with a lot of restrictions, and also the safety of their employees Russia wouldn't like it if a company modeled their Ka-52 as accurately as possible. Y'know, the helicopter that's currently being used in the Ukrainian-Russo war? I don't think the ED employees would be fond of an FSB raid. Even if they modeled the Ka-52K, the aircraft is still pretty much the same thing as Russia's Ka-52. It's still a Ka-52, despite the English avionics, better avionics cooling, reinforced fuselage, corrosion resistance, etc. I think it's just way too risky.

Not true. Stop spreading disinformation.

Got it working after installing the mod manually. Thanks for the awesome mod!

I installed both the mod and the fix via OVGME, but I'll install the mod manually

Hello I have what I believe to be the latest version of the VPC mod As well as the VPC fix for 2.9.6 But when I load into DCS, it says that the VPC mod has failed to authorize. I'm installing them via OVGME. I believe that I might have the wrong version for the main mod. Can someone please send the latest download links? Thank you

Could the developers provide some low-flying helicopter footage to give us a better sense of what the ground will look like? (not including the cities or densely populated areas) I like the outline of the ground from high altitudes (keyword, high alts), but as some users have mentioned in this thread, it does appear to be the fake shadow textures. I think this could be fixed with texture LODs and various ground textures and surface types that can be algorithmically combined based on the satellite imagery (hopefully I'm using the right terms ), instead of the infamous digital zoom sat imagery, which I believe casts those weird, flat "shadows." I know it's WIP, but I personally don't want to see the same stuff that we see in Iraq and Afghanistan. I do trust Ugra to deliver a fantastic product, so I hope it all turns out well and that I'm simply incorrect. I am judging something clearly WIP lol And I'm mainly a helicopter guy, which means I want the main thing I'll be looking at (the ground) to be good, and this map is perfect for the BO-105, so I of course flock to the maps that have a ground like Normandy 2.0
