Smoke/dust improvement for bombs/explosions has been requested before, but I'd like to add this one to the list: Please improve on the "smoke system" for industrial locations. Looking at Ugra's latest (awesome) Fulda Gap teaser shots, there currently seems to be just one default smoke "puff" for all chimneys/stacks. Especially the cooling towers need something like this: Depending on the atmosphere/weather, these things can cause actual proper clouds (masking potential targets)

Very impressive amount of details! As someone actively working in the industrial sector (plant design), I love destroying factories in my spare time in DCS One minor thing though... I hope ED will work on their "smoke" system, because a cooling tower creates proper clouds

Looks like a mushroom cloud on the CNN images Perhaps the paved spot in the last screenshot is prepared for this? (seems indeed like an important landmark)

Here's the response I was referring to: Perhaps I interpreted this message wrong, or this weeks call from Nineline for ATC sme's is giving me too high hopes for "short term" improvements
-
Agreed! ATC improvement (together with the DC) is way on top of my DCS wishlist Last year, in one of the many ATC wish threads, I remember seeing a CM (I think it was Bignewy) respond in such a way that I kinda lost all hope for ATC improvements anytime soon. Very happy to see now, that they're actually cooking on something

Thanks for this thread (and the answers ) I felt completely incompetent yesterday, when I had totally mixed results trying to get Jester to lock on targets. I just couldn't at all get low flying helo's locked. And with only aim-7's on board I was really showing how useless I was in the F4 on a public MP server.. This thread make me feel a bit better (I purchased the F4 a few weeks ago and now I'm in love with it. Even though I still suck in it)

Additionally: Handley Page Victor VC-10 P3 Orion and plenty more.. And, cold war scenario's call for the U-2 and SR-72.. With Ugra's cold war Fulda Gap map coming, we additionally should have some current DCS AI assets upgraded (downgraded). E.g.; Equip the current KC-135 model with the older Pratt & Whitney TF33-PW-102 type engines. Oh and ED, we are (or at least I am ) not asking for study level AI 3D models with exactly the same rivet count as the real thing, that will take a decade to develop. The new B-52, B-1B and S-3B models and textures are beautiful, but current refurbishing pace doesn't seem realistic. Personally I'd perfectly well except a little less detail on AI assets if that means I can use them in my missions within my lifetime .

Thanks @cfrag This one I was especially curious about: Save feature seems very crude at this moment
-
Looking awesome Perhaps a chance on some low down environment footage between the Eifel hills @MAESTR0? (or is that part still under construction?)

Now that you mention it , I think I forgot to double check that I was in AG mode. You're probably right. Tnx

Sometimes when I'm in the dive, with the reticle on the target and I (short) press the Jester action button, he's not locking my target, but with each press he responds with something like: Nose, rear, wide, ... Obviously I'm doing something wrong. I forgot to save the track file, but maybe someone knows what I'm doing wrong from what I wrote above?
-
I agree, some slow mover low level footage, showing terrain elevations in The Eifel, would be very welcome. Perhaps a short video, following Moselle river? (Few times a year I "fly" through this beautiful area on my motorcycle. Can't wait to do the same, low level, in a jet or helo )

If no KC-10, how about a KDC-10? Yep, our small country had two of these bad boys
