  1. There are a number of things missing or wrongly implemented. The FM has several issues, MSI is non existent, radar locking is still problematic, engine nozzles not closing when moving throttles from IDLE etc. 

    These things have been reported to no avail. Yet you ask for bug reports, more of our time spent on reporting, only to be censored or thread locked and forgotten? 

    Come on guys, let's not tell each other fairy tales, we're too old and we've seen the same movie over and over again. 
    It's out of EA, ED moved on and the policy is to keep the forums clean, so the product looks good and keeps selling. I've been around long enough and rarely post here for a reason.

  2. This is what happens when you pay in full for something that isn't finished. I am fully against this business model, but most of you "throw money at the screen" as soon as yet another EA module is announced. You didn't even really need Razbam or VEAO to see this, ED's own modules are probably never going to be fully complete either, yet you purchase hoping for what? 

    Check what state the module is in, if you're happy with it buy it, otherwise wait longer. That's the harsh reality.

  3. Whenever I enter waypoint or tgt coordinates manually via the UFC, the last digit is automatically changed by -1. 

    E.g. if I input MGRS coordinates e.g. 1234512345, when i click ENT ont he UFC, the last digit instead of 5 is turned into a 4, and it becomes 1234512344

    In order to enter as I want, I need to enter it as 123451234which will be turned into 1234512345.

     

    The same happens with decimal-minutes-seconds coordinates, except there it's more erratic and it seems impossible to enter exactly the number I want, because it just won't accept certain numbers and jumps to +- 2 decimals. 

     

    EDIT see screenshots. in this example it is IMPOSSIBLE to enter the number 5, as you hit ENT on the UFC it turn the 5 into a 4. 
    It does the same with other numbers as well. 

     

    @RAZBAM_ELMO can you please check?

  4. been experiencing regular crashes where logs are not created (it creates empty zip files). 

    The game freezes, the sound continues to be heard as if nothing happened. 
    Once it even froze, gave me the small dialog saying it crashed but I waited and after a while it "unfroze" and I could play for a further 10 minutes or so until it CTD directly to desktop.

    here's what I have + a log from an older crash that seemsdcs.log-20240104-154551.zip to open correctly

  5. Wake turbulence in general is greatly exaggerated in DCS as reported multiple times. If that affects the burble or not I don't know, but I've turned it off completely. 
    It would be a great feature if implemented correctly instead of being the usual half-baked mess that is slapped in and labelled [correct as is].

    Why, it is off-topic. G-tolerance is being looked at, but doesn't have anything to do with the topic (FM). Thanks. 

    Yeah I don't disagree, some people above were talking about g tolerance and I think that's a good piece of info, but agree this should be discussed separately.
    It is an important part of achieving best performance in the Viper though, as others have said.

    EDIT: @BIGNEWY added sources and links

     

    @NineLine I added some extra info you guys may find useful. Maybe you can break out that post into its own topic or just pass it to the team. Thx

    "Since the 1983-84 modification of the USAFSAM centrifuge to provide high G-onset rates and subject-in-the-loop control, another 741 TAC aircrew have received high-G centrifuge training at USAFSAM, all in the F-16-configured seat. Only two of the 741 did not complete the 8-G, 15-s G profile during the scheduled training session, and only 44 did not complete an additional 9-G, 15-s profile (99.7 and 94.1% success rates, respectively)."
