  1. Sounds like you're not getting your afterburner on. You have a massive power advantage. You should be the one doing big loop turns with attacks in your favor always. Check your control setup for the afterburners. Make sure you know where the indicator lights are.
  2. Use your power advantage to go vertical. Dive shoot climb, repeat.
  3. Double check the "historical list of units" control. It's an icon that looks like a clock/watch on the bottom bar of the ME frame. When it's on, it limits things based on the time frame of the mission.
  4. The 1st C Block 25 has BVR; The AN/APG-68(V) is a considerable advancement over the APG-66 of the F-16A/B. The planar array in the nose provides numerous air-to-air modes, including range-while-search, uplook and velocity search, single target track, raid cluster resolution, and track-while-scan for up to 10 targets. Beyond-visible-range capability has been added in the form of a high-PRF track mode to provide continuous-wave (CW) illumination for guidance of the AIM-7 Sparrow semi-active radar homing missile.
  5. I think the 1st C - block 25 has BVR. The A/B eventually get the MLU they call block 20.
  6. If it's a controller conflict and clearing the setting doesn't work, you can try moving out the saved game controller config for the P-47. When you run the game after it will build a new one from the default file. Look in config/input/
  7. Game version? Mission name? Not seeing this in OB. The switch is up.
  8. One reason might be because F-15C's were already in production by 1979. They entered service before the MiG-29. Why isn't that a fair comparison?
  9. Make a connection. Then switch yourself into offline mode at the top of the main screen. Then you will be in offline mode until you switch back. If you don't do it this way you only have a couple of days of offline mode until it locks.
  10. In SP using dynamic is cool. It's a pain to setup though. There are a couple of guides floating around if you're interested. 23 turbulence will give a few nice bumps to landing aircraft. In MP I only use the extremes. Either all clear or full overcast since weather isn't totally in sync for MP. Fog is always good when it fits the situation.
  11. You nailed it pretty well with your post. 1. Pathfinding matters. Keep routes as simple as possible, through the least obstructed areas. This helps to keep ground units from getting stuck as well. 4. I've also used "switches" on the map. A car near a trigger in some corner of the map, I can just command to move (Combined Arms). For times you don't want to put it in the F10 menu. 5. Turn the AI of units on/off as needed.
  12. Yes, for now. From the product page... the big red bold part... Requires DCS World Open Beta version 2.5.6 or above!
  13. For the new PC, don't go by the minimum spec. Use the VR spec if you can afford it, but with a larger SSD. At least a 500GB for the Windows install and DCS. If you want to buy more maps or modules you'll need the extra. Forget the CD. All that matters is that key. You will download the DCS World installer and install it. It's free anyway. The A-10 will not be installed at this time. At this point I can't say for sure what will happen. You need a DCS account. (not the same as your forum account) If you already have an account and already registered that key, you would be able to select the A-10 and install it under the module manager in the game. If that key is not linked to your account you will need to log into your account and add the key. If you don't have an account you will need to create one the first time you run DCS when the login screen comes up, then use that same login/password info to log into the DCS website, and add the key. Modules were tied to the key in the past. Now they are tied to your login instead. After you link that key to your account, the account becomes the important part. Use a good password. Welcome back! Good luck!
  14. The log says... 2020-10-04 13:52:03.192 ALERT DX11BACKEND: Your graphics card does not support DirectX11 features Does the machine have more than 1 video card? A discrete video card and an on CPU? Are you running on the same one as before? Your machine appears to be very low spec according to what little info is in the log. Could you post a dxdiag please?
  15. Was it working before you re-mapped it?
  16. Adding onto what Suntsag said, when you select create new mission you are presented with the coalition screen. There you may select a WW2 coalitions preset to help with the filtering. :thumbup:
  17. Good on ya, for posting your feedback for the content creators, but making demands to have it only your way, is not going to fly, so to speak. As for those community members so quick to throw around the “gamer” or “air quake” labels, you’re only kidding yourselves if you think ED doesn’t value them (also paying customers) just as much as they do you. This does get my vote for favorite ED forum rage thread of the day though.
  18. Changing terrain object shadows from default to flat will buy you a bunch of low level frames. You lose some long shadows when the sun is low, but trade off might be worth it.
  19. Defensive smoke grenade. They don't last long enough though.
  20. A "deactive group" will remove them.
  21. Do you really think they whipped up all those fixes since the rage thread? Isn't it more likely that these things had been in the works for a while, like Ron said?
  22. You want to base your curves on the hardware you fly with. A short throw stick sitting on the desk will need some, while an extended setup on the floor might not. Careful with saturation. If you lower it you are reducing the maximum amount of control surface deflection possible. I use CH gear and run a 21 curve on X and Y with no deadzone. I think I'm a bit higher in the P-47, maybe 23 or 24.
  23. That's what search is for... ;) It's a slider in Options, in the GUI. Same place you control the other graphic settings. The options.lua file, which contains the settings, is in user/.../saved games/DCS <version>/Config If you do decide to edit this or any other lua file, don't use notepad. Use Notepad ++ or some other editor that wont fry the format.
  24. It's adjustable like the other maps. You can reduce it to nothing or max it. If max isn't enough you can always edit the file.
