Nice thread. I would like to ask what would you do if you where in a rusian plane, BvR with an f15, 1vs1, and the 15 comes towards you launching aims every 5 secs. If he is not going to take evasive manoeuvres he is destined to die, Is there any other tactic to fight this guy? I mean, the only way you ll now he is a suicide guy is when you see him coming towards you with out making any defensive manoeuvres. But again how is it possible to know how many amraams did he launched towards you even if he took the defensive maneuver (180degs) so you can turn back and soot the ''good one'' ?

Dnt tell me you haven't watched ''area88'' anime... THE LEGEND... Top gun was nice but also i liked : HOT SHOTS 1991 :D :D :joystick:

Yes Mav, Tacview works in the operation. I dnt have any saved from last night though, i had many disconnects and i decided to connect ''naked'' at the end :)

Next time I will not forget to set my whisper on ts :D realy nice to fly with you guys! I hope you like fishing :D, cause next mission, if im not mistaken, involves A LOT of ''fishing'' :D

Needles from analogue gauges looks like they are a 2d overlay, not a 3d animated part, and i think they use the same technique like the hud does in order to project into the 3d cockpit. But again I really dnt know anything about graphics programing and 3d animations.. (im more of a vhdl-verilog guy), anyway just a thought.

:D thx for the help guys! I managed to enable space invaders game on it last night because tetris was boring :D

Cheers, nice mod and use of the pvi :thumbup: but there MUst be more :D

Good info, yes 1031 says about how to realign, I mean general info for the overall system. aligning is just a scratch :) Thanks for the heads up anyway ;)

THIS IS AN INFORMANTIONAL THREAD!! NOT A WISH THREAD. PLAEASE!! PLEASE!!! dnt destroy what is already up. PLEASE! read the thread and check, if you need something that you cannot find here, go to the wishlist thread... PLEASE, this is a GEM thread, dnt destroy it because of your greediness to fly something. BEHAVE. and Im sorry for the capitals ;) EDIT: Its embarasing, but what I wrote was going here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=95985&page=52 but anyway the idea is general enough to touche many threads in this forum so.. :)

Thank you for you reply, , how can we align this thing though in flight? the note 4 is an overall systems working , not a ''how to use it''. I am sure that pvi800 is a lot more than the manual and wags note 4 sews.

manual only explains the butons. Of Course noone use the pvi800 we all know how to fight , go to and come out from the battle, but I bet no one knows the ''depth'' of this system which is something like the CDU of the A10c. I bet you never use it ? plus there is no any tutorial on the PVI800 on youtube, and I fly the aligator from day one ;)

Is there any training manual or video on PVI800? Info on how to use it in the current (and previous BS1) manual is next to nothing. Any informational documents will be appreciated. I know that it is not fully simulated but some more information on how to use it would be nice from the devs or the more ''involved'' :).

Well said, but sadly there are some ppl who believe that everything is possible just because there is a huey in the air :D Anyway, your 3dmodel is extremely beautiful sir. I would like to ask if there is any possibility that you make the skin available for us or any other info on the skin so we can contribute somehow in this proj?

Im sorry CptSmiley, I sometimes get seduced by some irrelevant posts and I feel the need to intercept them (with my own irrelevant staff:D ). I follow this thread from long time ago and I definitely know what is it about. Again thank you and Skatezilla for what you have done and you are doing.

First of all I would like to truly thank all of you guys that are involved in this. (afm is ready) I ll talk only for the systems simulation. Because: 1. The amount of systems that need to be modeled are at least 4 times more than those from a10c. 2. Their programming knowledge on the dcs engine is nowhere near the level needed to even program something near an a10c. (only ED can do it) 3. ED could do it but their main focus is to develop the base engine further in order to bring the base software into a true ''sandbox'' state. 4. Systems simulation level from ''the other sim'' is already over the top, so anyone who is going to make a dcs f16 module has to at least equal or surpass the fidelity of the other sim, otherwise it will bring down all dcs simulation concept. And this is not acceptable. (If you know what I mean) Those are my own speculations. On the other hand, a module like this could be reasonably priced at least double than a regular module. I could personally pay 3ple :smilewink: but only if there were more thaters (not nevada).

Nop, it is not that dcs window becomes inactive, it is completely different. You can even press some buttons in the map screen. It is very easy to replikate, next time you go online, just change your windows theme into ''classic mode'' and enter the game, the first time you are shot you will be stuck in the map, only alt+ctrl+del will take you out so you can kill the process from the task manager and restart the game.

In MP when you are shot down and your pilot dies instantly, you are dropped to the map view. From there, there is no way either to refly or exit the game. Esc key menu does not work. This happens when you have chosen to use the classic theme of windows. Basic and glas theme works fine.

In my experience the lag comes not from too many stationary units on map, but from too many moving units. This is getting exponentially worse when those moving units encounter obstacles and need to ''develop'' new paths by themselves in order to reach their destination. This is clearly not a graphics issue and depends on CPU resources. So EDGE is not going to change this directly. It will change it though because dx11 will move most of the graphical workings from CPU into the GPU. EDIT: please correct me if im wrong and you have more exp on this :)

I know it is going to be a huge project but I would like to ask the moderators to move the informational posts into dcs:world subforum and leave all the irrelevant stuff here. This way, multiple ''informational'' questions will be avoided (there is no way to read 300+ pages just to check if an answer you are looking for is already there) SiThSpAwN said it all and I thank him for his patience to reply.

IN RED mig21 :D or what is left :lookaround:

I follow this topic from page one. In my opinion when there is a topic about a new product, the conversation should be on questions, assumptions and speculations about the product, and most important, oficial feedback. After receiving 0 answers on perfectly valid questions for the new product from developers, we start speculating, when we do that, beta testers come in and intercept our speculations. When all the above happen at once, then people get frustrated and turn the topic into complains about lack of updates, and the moderators step in to clean the mess. So please what is this topic about? Is it only to express our excitement by posting the same ''tape'' of aplaus and replies like: This is going to be awesome! Im so excited! I cannot wait! and so on..? Please mods and beta testers tell us what exactly should we post here because I am a bit confused and I am sure there are MANY others in my situation. :helpsmilie:

:director: Server was STABLE like a ROCK! :clap: The event was great and I am looking forward for the second mission. I had some personal hardware problems (low fps) but after the end of the event I found out that somehow nvidia drivers were reseting my GPU overclock... :doh: +1 vote for DATO alliance. :D

I am 99% sure that the OP did not erase his saved games folder after installing ka50 so his his joystick input file was not updated. simFFB is perfect for the alligator and huey (i did not try the simFFB with mi8 yet). For fc3 and a10c i use the DCS ingame ffb and I have no problems problems at all. ( minus ffb on FC3 non AFM models).

At the beginning of the bonus announcement it was ''ED products'' not DCS products. But all fine here except that i have 2 split bonuses from 2 separate accounts :(

lock on 1.1b did not register for me either, plus im with 2 accounts with 2 different bonuses, so the discount period is going to work better for me i guess :( EDIT: In my opinion the bonus is more targeted towards ''future'' customers than the ''loyal'' ones..
