  1. I'm programming my X-52 Pro for the Ka-50, and while it mostly works perfectly, I do have one issue. I can not move the Shkval target designator diagonally. If I use the ;/., keys on the keyboard, it moves smoothly in all 8 directions. If you can only move it horizontally or vertically, the sensor has to pause before switching directions. It's a little clunkier than it should be. Any way to fix this? My POV hat is set to 8-way and Button mode. Currently I have the up/right/down/left bound to ;/., and all the diagonals include two keys, with the vertical key first and horizontal second. So up-right would be bound to ;/ and down-left would be bound to .,
  2. Longbow's can mount 2 Stinger tubes on their wing tips actually.
  3. Any news on this? I'd love to fly something as crazy maneuverable as this. Just to clarify, HOT and TOW missiles is the only weaponry this helicopter mounts, right?
  4. I was wondering why the Ka-50 never came with R-73's. I guess they can't accurately model a system that has never been tested before?
  5. I do not like them, Sam-I-am. I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them from a pig, I do not like them in a MiG, (someone finish it for me)
  6. Great idea for a thread.
  7. Campaign confirmed and updates next week?
  8. I'm not sure what joystick you're using, but if it's the X52/X52 Pro, try binding the X axis on the ministick for Zoom In/Out Slow with the small button beside it as Zoom Normal, and have the Y axis as unprogrammed. It feels really natural to use and it's always at my thumb. Much better than using any button or the slider to zoom. You still have 3 other hat switches which is plenty for the Ka-50 as far as I'm concerned. That's for the X52 Pro but I imagine other throttles have something comparable on them.
  9. IndieGoGo fundraiser for DCS: AC-130 Spooky II I haven't seen anything about it on the forums here or on SimHQ, and the current 5$ tells me that news of it isn't getting around at all. I only found it recently on Hoggit (DCS subreddit) just now. It's open until July 29th and a dozen days have already elapsed. IndieGogo doesn't give money back if the project doesn't survive, so I'm a little hesitant to support it given that the author seemingly hasn't made an effort to get the word around. I think we should get in contact with the guy to make sure this isn't going to fall through before we begin donating. Some proof of his work on BF4 and FSX, some contact information, and a list of team members would be appreciated as well. The page mentions that DCS doesn't support multiseat, which is disproven by the Mi-8MT and UH-1H modules. I don't have a lot of faith in this project currently and I find this Kickstarter quite sketchy, but I wouldn't mind seeing it happen if this was legitimate. Let's find proof of that first.
  10. So what I'm curious is, if the Ka-50 is so disadvantaged compared to other gunships (as this thread seems to indicate), why did Kamov want to try and build a single seat attack helicopter in the first place?
  11. It's tomorrow, nothing for us? :( Aw well.
  12. Isn't the MiG-21bis a 3rd generation fighter?
  13. If only this module came out sooner, you could have fixed one up and flown it back home yourself! :P Also, Rosebud was his MiG.
  14. Sadly not. :( We get plenty of tutorials and missions at least. As someone who usually does single player (might give MP a serious go for this however) I put my vote down for a campaign. At least we can rely on the community to come up with something if LN is too busy.
  15. Besides the fixing of any problems with the released content, of course. Unless you are putting all of your effort into that, which is fine. Starting on the next project, creating a campaign, implementing the other machines Beczl had planned (like the Sa-2), something else? Just curious. Including a poll here just in case you want embrace democracy. :p Looking forward to the MiG!
  16. So there was list of weapons posted a month ago on here, but it was stated that those were the ones that weren't implemented yet. Can we have a more current list of what weapons are set to be implemented for the release, or at least within a couple patches of it? Maybe a short and basic description on how each one is used and what it is used against too.
  17. DCS: Europe 1944 should be completed by the time their next product comes out, so if they go WWII, it would actually work pretty well. We're also getting a fair amount of early/mid Cold War era aircraft if they decide to jump to that time period. DCS: Viper II or go home. I want to blast some frakkin' Cylons!
  18. Lewd. Now everyone is going to think I bought aircraft erotica. I assume it isn't erotica. Is isn't erotica, right?
  19. So, the ability of the aircraft aside, what kind of missions should I expect to be flying in the MiG-21? I preordered this 2 years ago but I kind of forgotten about this project in the Fall of 2013, so I'm behind on this. I was mainly interested in this plane because I figured it would provide a wide variety of game play options, am I right on that? Just some basic examples of what kind of scenarios I should expect would be nice. EDIT: kind of off-topic, but I don't feel like making a separate thread. I have an standard X-52 without pedals and my TrackIR 4 should be get to me before this is released. I should have plenty of room on my HOTAS to fly this plane, erm, effectively?
  20. It's been a long time since I checked up this website, at least 6 months, as I hadn't been flying simulators for quite a while. I'm really glad this project is still going and within a roughly a month of finishing! I just ordered Track IR 4 which should be here within a week or so, and I've set up the ol' X-52 again.
  21. I didn't really like the art style, but the content more than makes up for it. If you understand the references being made, it's actually pretty funny! Some of them are pretty obscure though, like the F-104/XB-70 collision for example. Most of the comics are based on current news at the time. It's Korean so you read it left to right like any western comic. All chapters listed here. Chapters 13-15 haven't been translated yet, to my knowledge. From the looks of it, A-10 goes nuts!
  22. What are all the weapon systems implemented into both the beta and the release? Will guided missiles be introduced later on?
  23. What is the exact variant we're getting? I can't find an "MTV2" variant on the internet. Is this going to be the Hip E? EDIT: Nevermind, sorry for being a noob. It's a Mi-17 variant, was looking under Mi-8.
  24. At first I was not interested, but now you have my attention.
  25. I'll trade you my A-10C key for your A-10A/Su-25A keys. :P (I don't really have time to learn A-10C right now, don't judge me!)
