  1. Exactly. Additionally, I suggest asking yourself the question - "to have or not to have". Even if something is being developed, in my case it's better to have it. Why? Because it is my main hobby with which nothing can compete. As for disk space - this is generally starting to be a problem for some people, which I wrote about a long time ago. The strategy of releasing maps means that unfortunately several of my friends have already given up on purchases due to disk space. I personally bought a 4GB NVMe drive after the release of the Kola map just for DCS, although going by the current course, it may turn out to be too little in 3-4 years. Maybe by then the whole Earth will finally appear, which will make disk space more predictable, and the next maps will possibly be a nice addition. I would gladly pay for the whole Earth. If such a map was about 1TB (based on autogens), that would also be good news for people, because they would be able to estimate what they need more accurately. However, it does not change the fact that currently for DCS you basically need at least 2TB if you want to have everything plus upcoming addons in 2025 (my DCS currently takes up 890GB), and then Iraq and East Germany will be added to that. So probably another 180-250GB. I would also suggest a Launcher upgrade (suggestion for @Flappie ) that could indicate where add-ons are installed (this is possible), something like the ORBX Central client for MSFS. This way you can manage disk space and install larger maps on different disks.
  2. Let's assume it's a fairy . In fact, I'm still very positively surprised, because I didn't think the map would reach Qatar. Cool, the only thing is that this part will be in 2025.
  3. Of course, like in life, nothing is perfect. And I don't think anyone here is saying that all these modules are 100%. It's not like that, but these are minor things that don't diminish the importance of a given module. The fact that the F-15E doesn't have all the MFD screens (and why would I honestly go through the BIT screen, for example?) and a few more types of weapons, does it mean that the module is in a terrible condition and can't be flown (as some suggest), or requires a return? Absolutely not. The same as you write Harrier, it's in a specific situation, when the user doesn't follow the instructions, if you go beyond certain situations it can force an error. These are minor things that are completely nothing to worry about, they will be, but they don't ruin the reception of the models. However, of course - the biggest problem may be the fact that some patch will mess something up, or like it was with the F-15E radar. The risk in the current situation is only here and possibly what the future will bring. I wouldn't worry about condition of modules today. There's plenty to do at DCS, it would be nice if Razbam didn't come back to the game, if he sold the rights and IP to ED and that's it. Maybe an additional team would take care of it here - but that would also require additional specialists.
  4. nullCurrently we have a bar with a map of Iraq at the top of the Forum, but it just so happens that a very bright cloud in the image overlaps the mail icon and the bell, you can't see anything at all. Can you fix this and give a slightly darker background in this place? It's unclear where to click.
  5. Good decision, the Harrier is a really cool model and basically a complete. Lol. Why? Does your conviction strengthen you? Each model is almost fully functional and does not differ from the EA level or the current status of other modules. Whether it's MiG-19, M2000, AV-8B or F-15E, you can still enjoy it at a high level. Personally, I have not made any refunds and do not intend to. Unless I'm forced to do so. Generally, if I could summarize a few posts here about status of modules (sry ), what is noticed, what you see, depending on who you are :
  6. The whole map, see FAQ for Iraq Map: .
  7. Perfect news! Pre-purchase done!
  8. Razbam's products are currently not participating in any discounts, so what we have is an EA discount (Strike Eagle as example). If there are discounts, they do not apply to Razbam for obvious reasons. As for the AV-8B, the module is worth every cent here and you certainly will not be disappointed even at full price.
  9. According to the official information, parts are supposed to come out every 3 months or so, so theoretically the next part should appear now, in October, and then with a patch in February. Theoretically everything should be finished within a year.
  10. Exactly, this is actually a basic question, how many people are satisfied with the current and previous system? Good move.
  11. This would be one of the more anticipated helicopters for the Warsaw Pact, Soviet or Russian side, but look here:
  12. Absolutely not. Of course it's nice and better to prepare before the mission, but there are flights, especially online, when you have to quickly give coordinates in a dynamic environment to another crew, then there is no other option. No, it's not a cheat, its the necessary feature and it's good that it was introduced some time ago by ED Team .
  13. Thx. Btw. We currently have the option to also check MGRS on the map F10 LAlt+mouse or LCtrl+Y in Mission Editor.
  14. I myself am curious about the size of this map. It should include all of Iraq of course, Kuwait and at least part of Saudi Arabia, so that there are also coalition's bases from operations in the Persian Gulf. Also a part of the Persian Gulf so that operations can be carried out from the sea. I'm looking forward to some news. This video shows Iraq map, Baghdad Tower (Baghdad City):
  15. But what does this have to do with Kiowa Warrior?
  16. Correct, it was this „Jonathan's DCS Campaigns”.
  17. Recently I've been flying a bit on Kola again and I have to admit that after the last two big updates the map looks simply great! There has been a lot of progress, in fact I'm waiting for some campaigns (they are on the way for F-16 and 18 and AJS-37 as well) over this area but for some time now it has been one of my most favorite maps. Crg!
  18. Ok, this is my entry. It's a perfect time because the conflicts in Afghanistan, both US and Soviet, are my favorite topic Travel back to the times of the Soviet intervention in Afghanistan 1979-89. This Mi-24P of OSAP repaint based on the real repaints used in this conflict on the Mi-24P, type - "desert clover" used during military operations in Afghanistan. The skin is based on the real schemes used on the Mi-24P in Afghanistan, the so-called "Afghan clover pattern". This camo was created at that time in two variants, greenish (as a background) and sand-colored (as a background). The repaint also has changed interior elements (pilot, gunner, etc.), includes enhanced weathering too and can be used with any side number (with weathering numbers too). I'm adding a few more screenshots than planned. The skin is a part of my "Szatan Arba" campaign dedicated for Mi-24P. Link HERE. Skin is already for download: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3335143/. Personally I don't work in Photo Shop only in Corel, that's why I have files but CPT. I'll export them to PSD and give links later (although it will be very big content). Btw. if this skin were to be published, I can adjust it to DCS/ED requirements (in such a case it would probably be necessary to remove the "wolf and hare" symbol and the pictures from the kneeboard, in the free version these things can be still).

  19. So far the result is quite interesting for me. On average every second DCS user uses Oculus (almost 40%), I was surprised by such a high result of HP users, it is still 2nd place with 20%, Pimax is in third with a result of almost 19%. By taking care of these three groups the problem of "big box dot" in terms of visibility should be solved in most situations (77% of users till now according surveys to the current date). The next statistic should be a comparison of the share in resolution baskets. Following this path, for example, Quest 3 and Reverb, Pico 4 will give 43% of users (generally it's even more important than the company). I will do this but on another occasion, maybe at the end of the survey.
  20. In general, more characters would be useful, including civilians, despite appearances, this is quite an important topic in every conflict. But first, let the announced new animations of soldier models appear, there are some that still do not have even walking animations (example JTAC) so fingers crossed!
  21. @Graphics any news about MiG-29 FF or F6F Today? Pretty please!
