@=475FG= Dawger https://forum.dcs.world/topic/333439-why-do-i-hate-flying-the-f-5/?do=findComment&comment=5288321 Those were great! Am I right that the key to aerobraking in F-5 is not letting it pitch down right at the touchdown?

Couldn't resist, those skins are awesome! F-5E liveries gallery - all skins — https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3333024/ Even though it's fictional, this one is my favorite!

Don't get me wrong, but any cases with a combination of cockpits and LOW or OFF shadows settings are off-topic. Those settings should come with clear disclaimers that they may break cockpit rendering. Those cases have nothing to do with the auto exposure/luminosity this topic is about.

Could you post a link to that topic?

It would have been against my "must piss against the wind" credo AND it costs!

@silverdevil While that reasource is simply perfect, I don't think it answers my question. Probably because I'm trying to do the opposite from everyone else While everybody's after shaving off everything leaving the dots to stay the longest as the objects get further I don't want to see them. Ever. Maybe that resource tells how to do it and I'm just to dumb

Dual factor authentication for free trials?
Bucic replied to Beirut's topic in Forum and Site Issues
Still requires a "smartphone" I didn't say it doesn't. -
I've just slapped together a dirty compilation of Xbox controller take off runs as I wanted to investigate that "never smooth" claim for myself. Note: - note how much I have to subtract from the initial trim setting set by DCS ; may be bug-report-worthy - the bump after lift off is usually there because I have to find the G on the keyboard with my left hand that's in charge of the "stick" - after take off I often barely touch the stick - I tend to fly by the trim hat - ...

I've just tested it with Microsoft Authenticator. Works fine. -
Concerns about G-Onset and Damage to wings
Bucic replied to ElvisDaKang's topic in Bugs and Problems
It might be worth cross-checking against this as well since engine RPM variations seem to cause some stellar momentary accelerations on the in-game airframe. Since component loads (pylons included) are probably calculated from the general airframe kinematics the engine-related glitching may influence a whole array of other components. -
It's not the 'star chaser' bug you're after.

Here's the video and associated track file. MTOW 80% https://youtu.be/j0v57kIAGmc bug engine force kick 2023-09-18.7z Same instance but external view. It seems that it's the G camera setting is overreacting. No such movements occur on the airframe. One last video and track - G effects on camera disabled (head bobbing disabled). Note that even with the setting disabled there are instances the pilot is "shaken in the cockpit." https://youtu.be/tlWLv4vNgg0 bug engine force kick 2023-09-18 headbob disabled.trk EDIT FINAL: Yeah, the case seems to be clear - here's what happens at engine RPM variations: 1. The in-game airframe actually jitters in a way impossible in real life. 2. Due to the huge accelerations the camera algorithm goes haywire. Here's a magnified view: YAW magnified https://youtu.be/6GdVNsg31oY ROLL magnified https://youtu.be/H9ojQmatHRw

IRL if there's this kind of impulse on the airframe from the engines, the engines are goners.

Whenever I'm revving up for takeoff the A/C shakes violently at certain moments. While testing for the infamous afterburner bug I noticed camera kicks. At that time I thought it's just a camera glitch, but it seems there's more to it after all. If not for the in-flight occurrences I'd suspect a glitch in tire contact modeling but the spotlight is on the engines right now. DCS version - ALL OB versions since december 2022 not map-specific I'm going to post a track sometime later.

Ah, the Su-25 guy just posted a screenshot from his F-5E settings.

F-5E module is not IS the only module with that option. You might want to follow this topic https://forum.dcs.world/topic/323919-joystick-and-y-axis-asymmetry-question/ As far as I know it's still undocumented.

I finally made the leap and I'm ditching Caucasus. It seems like a great time to do so and it's great to see the continued improvements Ugra Media is dishing out.

Does such an upgrade path exist? I did read the appropriate FAQ's etc., but I don't think it's what I'm asking about is possible. Still, I'd like to ask The whole backers thing... I wish it was a bit more isolated from regular DCS purchases. I asked for some licences to be assigned to another user in hopes this would clear things up a bit but the licenses are still there, visible on my account.

If there are any (I'm still not sure), is there a way to disable just the dots for object labels, all types of objects? If it's going to simplify things, for just one general label mode e.g. FULL. I've looked into the labels.lua file but it doesn't speak to me I don't mind if the symbols (e.g. chevrons for aircrafts) are gone as well.

But I'm going to go with DCS Livery Unlocker v1.2.1 [UPDATED] — https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3318254/

I was trying to be polite What's the story with those two panels? Did you make one for sale? https://public.fotki.com/tankist/cockpit---/simpit-take-2/20150621-210324.html

For the F-5E you might want to start with the undocumentend settings in special: - Joystick mode (linear, FFB, etc.) see https://forum.dcs.world/topic/323919-joystick-and-y-axis-asymmetry-question/ - sight camera F-5E Tips: "Real aircraft controls use longer arms and better sensors than commercial joysticks. You can get around some of the shortcomings using Axis Tune - Curvature (e.g. 15%). Dead zone only as a last resort." "Trimming is balancing the aircraft. It's necessary with speed changes and you're going to use that often. Map trimming controls to your joystick HAT switch." "F-5E has lower structural stress ratings compared to contemporary fighters. Refer to the manual for G (acceleration) limitations." "You can silence the low-speed warning beeping sound by pressing the [I] key." "The weapons panel as well as the radar warning receiver panel (RWR) both contain volume knobs you can use to lower the sound volume for the respective system tones." "You can find cockpit texture mods in DCS user files section at https://dcs.world You need one. Get one." "F-5E is rather particular about the weapons panel switch positions. E.g. leaving a jettison switch flipped after you got rid of a certain weapon may prevent you from firing any remaining weapons. Please refer to the manual." * pilot body show/hide * RCtrl+Pause CYCLE for performance metrics * RCtrl+Enter for controls indicator * one-liner about basic camera controls - cockpit * one-liner about basic camera controls - external "wishlist" : - redefine the default Numpad0 cockpit view in to show more instruments - general: redefine audio balance between cockpit and external views ; the external audio level is far too high General: LShift+R for goodness sake! restart mission other general universal key commands like briefing, rearm, chats and what not
