TrackIR not working in DCS is caused by two last updates of Natural Point software. Uninstall, install lower version and TrackIR is back.

It should say add KC-10 BACK This tanker was part of the Lock On Modern Air Combat, taking fuel in the Eagle ... oh the memories ... There are so many nice things that could be added to DCS ...KC-10 is one of them, as a FF module even more so.

That's why I asked if he meant fictional planes. To make sure. I know what the words in English mean. Thank you. Yep we could but why would we? It's always the same people (mostly) exchanging their opinions here. I guess we like it, we are very small bunch of folks talking here, small compared to the number of people who are registered on this forum.

Flaming Cliffs did not use 'docs' improvements that you mention that were past the initial FC, I am not sure, coz if it did, there would be nothing stopping ED from developing FF Su-25T

Not on my PC now so can't get you Miz file but the only difference I had was that I only used the same vehicles in the group. Three Chinese IFVs

Fantastic planes? Did you mean fictional planes? I am in the right forum. Flaming Cliffs used 'docs'? I'm m sure you remember when LOMAC converted to Flaming Cliffs...

Thank you Razor+r & BigNewy, I deleted bunch of files even some dating a decade ago..

Hello @IronMike was there any progress on getting into cooperative mode with EDSA ?

In one of the AH-64D module updates Wags mentioned female voiceovers for Apache flight members.

No. For the game like MAC or even for the Flaming Cliffs they don't need 'docs' that aren't published. We are all spoiled by the 'realistic simulation' DCS tries hard to achieve, but think about it for a minute. It is just an entertainment product, as such all of it can be made to fit the world of the actual game, based on physics, aerodynamics and generally available data. Why? Look at the Hornet project, Wags said long time ago, Hornet 'numbers' were changed as to not reveal it's performance, as it was still in use ...look at the highly successfull module Ka-50, it is based on the book(!) look at the mods by others such as Su-35, Su-57, F-22... These are user mods but are highly popular. People need to be entertained. Most of folks don't want to wait 6+ years bugs development just for the sake of the 'most realistic product for the commercial use'. Yes, you and me and thousands of others want that, but tens of thousands of others, just want to put a thing on thing press the space bar and see it go in spectacular flames. We are talking about the GAME here. Even DCS is NOT simulating everything to the highest realism, with a lot of shortcuts, dumb downs or unfinished unpolished experience. After all, DCS is just a PC game in flight simulation genre.

It is no longer available. Latest update removed Single Threaded version of DCS, now it it only MT version. This is not a solution, Single Threaded DCS does not exist anymore. Dust and smoke is WIP in DCS and part of the volumetric clouds code but also mentioned it is going to be written to be computed for epherical earth. @BIGNEWY any chance you could asked the team of the new volumetric clouds, dust and fog are coming to flat maps or will it be part of spherical earth project only please ?

I think the new effect is shown in DCS: AH-64D Radar Map Mode video, the first half a minute of the clip.

So... It is coming with DCS Earth project and NOT for current terrains? If it is going to be computed for epherical earth will it be cm backwards compatible with flat maps we have now?

That is great to hear! I hope it will make it into the next update.

They talked about clouds interfering with sensors before they talked about dust and fog... Get in a line But seriously I think I saw it in one of recent publications, a video or screenshot, I will try to find it.

Can you check if radio assist / easy radio got turned on? For me it get's turned on when I use DCS launcher. However, not using launcher anymore, I still have the ATC and AWAC radios default to some weird frequencies in older missions, created when radio assists were ON, If I don't use DCS launcher, have the radio assists off (I options) and create new mission EWR / AWACS / ATC works as it used to.

Yeah, they already said no as two businesses collide here.

Could always sell it again in 5 years after initial EA release ...

I fancy upnclose personal in DCS, Fulcrum is my love, I just expect it will bring the whole experience at highest level possible?

Animated ground crew is planned post supercarrier crew but I think it will be very long before we see it, and not sure if it is modern ground crew they mentioned or the WW2 one.

That is interesting question, Channel map is interesting for its specific content, while Normandy 2 is outstanding with Paris and London, if the prison and Dover castle were included in Normandy 2, Channel map would not be needed anymore. But yeah, lack of updates, lack of news, I guess it is no longer relevant for ED.

Very cool ideas, it is a shame that DCS does not include the logic to fill your ideas. Civilian traffic following civilian airspace and military traffic working in civilian airspace with controllers and all... eh that would be a simulation...

If you fiddle with 1st person view to get out of the cockpit (used to be possible via lua updates back in the time) you could still get that kind of view. since it is rendered in 1st person it would not put more strain on the external view. Could be an option like other graphical settings are.

Thing is though, MAC as a arcade game on DCS engine will not be able to compete with other ones on the market currently, so why would players choose it over the other ones? What's in it for the player ?

It goes down and down ... So I think I need to delete something from my profile "storage", right? Will it then remove images from my previous posts? Thanks!
