  1. Hi, we are well aware of the data for uploads and the peak times for our CDN but even with the most robust strategies in place limits can be reached. I hope you all got to download eventually, I also updated my public build the same time as you folks did, it was a big one for sure with the terrains. CDN's are at normal levels now so all should be good. best regards bignewy
  2. Please include the miz so we can take a look also check you are selecting the correct F/A-18C Lot 20 in the editor. thank you
  3. Hi, if you have public evidence that the sms format should switch please DM me. thank you
  4. Caucasus is optimal as it runs better in our debug tools
  5. glad we got it resolved, thanks for the discord chat.
  6. Sometimes release windows are small, we wanted to get the Mig-29A out in September as we had planned to, and also give an opportunity for steam users to get the pre-order discount which we did. We have listed the known issues to keep everyone informed, and also noted we have some more patches coming very soon with more additions and tweaks. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive so far, which is great to hear, overall it has been a great early access launch for us today and I do hope you enjoy your flights. best regards bignewy
  7. please include a track replay on caucasus. And Is the switch position Friend - Foe?
  8. We have the issue reported, we have lots of track files. What we dont have is free dev time as I have previously mentioned. As soon as there is a fix it will be dealt with. I understand its annoying, but it isnt game breaking in any way, it needs tweaking for sure and it will be done. thank you
  9. They had updates in June and more to come, please try to understand work takes time.
  10. Hi, everyone is trying to download at the same time, and as much as we can prepare the server limit sometimes gets reached on various CDN's. Please wait a little and try again, any download already done will still be there, and the download will continue where it left off. thank you
  11. DCS: MiG-29A has been released to early access we hope you all enjoy!
  12. If you have a download issue due to server capacity, just try again a little later, any download already done will still be there, when you start the download again it will check what you already have and continue. Obviously lots of people are trying to download all at once. thank you

Introduced DCS: NS430 for MIG-29 A Fulcrum by Eagle Dynamics. Key features: New campaign DCS: A-10C II Outpost Campaign by Stone Sky DCS Core Single helipad spawning “All terminals are busy” problem in multiplayer - fixed Multiplayer Slots not shown as busy but can not be used - Multiplayer Bugs - ED Forums AI Aircraft The AI F-4E will not strafe with the gun pod SUU-23 on the first pass (target) and needs to reattack before firing - fixed Mi-8 and UH-1H do not open the doors when troops disembarking - fixed F-16 AI can’t use ATP pod - fixed F-16 wingman refuses to engage, when finally it engages, it uses guns instead of the GBU12s, and track Sniper pod shows wrong in track - Aircraft AI Bugs (Non-Combined Arms) - ED Forums A-20G turret does not move/fire/react - fixed AI aircraft evasive maneuvers logic is not working with active missiles - fixed AI Aircraft no longer react to Fox 3 Missiles (Active Radar Homing) - Aircraft AI Bugs (Non-Combined Arms) - ED Forums AI Ground Added RSBN and PRMG special ground units and their respective symbology for facilitating these landing systems anywhere on the terrain. GPS spoofer unit model added, WIP, no jamming functionality yet. Currenthill Asset Pack Numerous changes to pack models, parameters of vehicles and interactions. Detailed list Changed BMP-T mesh smoothing Changed T-84 Oplot-M mesh smoothing Changed 9K720 textures Fixed BMP-T suspension Fixed Pantsir-S1 suspension Fixed M-ATV suspension Fixed M1130 suspension Fixed M142 suspension Fixed IRIS-T SLM suspension Fixed FV101 suspension Fixed FV107 suspension Fixed 9K720 suspension Fixed TOS-1A suspension Fixed Tor M2 suspension Fixed T-90M suspension Fixed T-84 Oplot-M suspension Fixed T-64BV suspension Fixed T-90A encyclopedia animation state Fixed TOS-1A encyclopedia animation state Fixed T-90A turret traverse and elevation angles Fixed T-90M turret traverse and elevation angles Fixed T-90M sight point placement Fixed Tor M2 encyclopedia error Fixed Pantsir-S1 low engagement performance Added Pantsir-S1 player control Fixed IRIS-T SLM STR radar rotation speed Fixed Tor M2 low engagement performance Added Tor M2 player control Changed Tor M2 mesh smoothing Changed Pantsir-S1 textures Fixed Project 22160 Tor M2KM low engagement performance Added Project 22160 Tor M2KM player control Fixed Project 22160 Tor M2KM search radar rotation issue Fixed T-64BV turret traverse and elevation angles Fixed Tu-95MS air refueling probe misalignment Fixed 9K720 armor protection level which was too high Fixed TOS-1A turret protection level which was too high Fixed M1083 armor protection level which was too high Fixed IRIS-T SLM armor protection level which was too high Fixed Pantsir-S1 armor protection level which was too high Fixed M142 armor protection level which was too high Fixed M142 ATACMS missile covers after rearming Changed IRIS-T SLM LN from flip tube covers to ejecting tube covers Changed IRIS-T SLM STR textures Changed IRIS-T SLM CP textures Changed IRIS-T SLM LN textures Fixed Tor M2 alarm state animation Fixed FV101 HESH long range direct fire issue Added FV101 HE-T ammunition type Fixed Tu-95MS uncentered propellers Mission Editor Add additional precision to object heading rotation field Quick Action Generator QAG now randomizes enemy units and AI skills based on the selected mission type. Fixed: end-mission window no longer appears in the debriefing after exiting the simulation. Fixed: previously added units are no longer reset when creating random groups in “Bomber Intercept” and “Ground Attack” missions. UI Added Search bar to Loadout and Livery lists in Rearming and Dynamic slots menu with the ability to search by name Added livery selection to encyclopedia with ability to seamlessly reload livery (will help livery creators to check changes made to the livery, without restarting DCS) WIP we will look for feedback. A more detailed tool for viewing models inside DCS is planned. Added Search bar to Dynamic spawn menu with the ability to search for a unit by name Removed old versions of in-game manuals from interface. Huey has "manual" in options - Bugs and Problems - ED Forums. Controls Mapping interface conflict tooltips do not show proper information - fixed Added new system options for mirrors resolution and sequential rendering Dynamic slots interface rope length for helicopters is not inherited from template group - fixed Weapons Introduced advanced model for R-27 missile family. Missiles got new CFD-based flight model, authentic control system that includes wing actuator model, altitude band-switching autopilot, Kalman-type guidance filters (different for IR and RF versions) which also drive seeker gimbal mechanics, INS and datalink system with realistic inaccuracies (for RF missile only), and RF or IR seeker. New semiactive RF seeker provides 'multitarget' tracking feature. This means that RF signals from several distinct targets will interfere and form one bigger apparent target once they simultaneously fall into the missile tracking gate. This apparent target may lead the missile between real targets in a target group, or to dispensed chaff. It also may steal missile velocity tracking gate and break guidance. R-27 proximity fuze now has a conical antennas pattern and variable explosion command delay to adjust for target size and closure rate. And, in addition, missiles got number of limitations caused by control systems design. For example RF missile can not be launched with roll angle exceeding 120 degrees because of gimbaled INS roll limit. Added Mk-83AIR GP HD bomb Added laser PRF code adjustment option for GBU-54 Fixed phantom bomb instances being frozen on impact instead of penetrating whatever they collided with Added fuze options for Soviet bombs and dispensers (BetABs, FABs, OFABs and RBKs). Adjusted BetAB, FAB and OFAB warhead parameters Added fuze options for Chinese bombs (250-2 and 250-3) Fixed phantom LGB instances trajectory desynchronization when using non-default laser PRF code Corrected available fuze variant sets for US HTP and non-HTP bombs Mk-20/CBU-99. Improved bombsight accuracy. Please note that using FMU-140 in low-altitude horizontal flight bombing runs will lead to poor accuracy - in these cases Mk 339 fuze must be used. FMU-140 should provide acceptable accuracy in dive bombing runs and, in specific conditions, in horizontal flight bombing runs (function altitude set to ca. 1/3 of release altitude and specific airspeed at release, e.g. function altitude - 3 kft, release altitude - 10 kft, TAS - 580 kts) Mk-20/CBU-99. Fixed Mk 339 fuze function delay being counted down after arming instead of after release BL755. Added fuze function delay options GMLRS. Added animation of rotation of the tail stabilizers block BetAB-500ShP. Improved bombsight accuracy in normal release conditions (release at 500 m altitude) Fixed non-detonation of bombs in certain conditions Fixed IRIS-T missiles constantly switching between command and IR guidance, which caused them to miss. Terrain Engine Tuned lazy loading of 3D models. We already had asynchronous loading in place, and this update adds complementary optimizations to ensure only the models needed in the current situation are loaded. This should slightly improve loading times in both the Mission Editor and mission startup. Voice chat Fixed. Crash on exiting from DCS when the “Pending request” window is open. Launcher Added. Help page with access to FAQ, User support, myReach AI helper, etc. DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum by Eagle Dynamics First week patch updates: The animations for the cannon trigger and the missile trigger to be swapped. Lock indication is not resetting after lock break. But logic is working correctly and radar stops locking. Air intake louvers animation corrections. Provide lower resolution textures cockpit option CHAFF/FLARE sequence corrections. When repairing after a wheels up landing, the repair completes, but the landing gear is not lowered, so after repair you are dropped back on your belly, negating the repair. IFF issues for clients connected to the mission hosted on a dedicated server. Single Player or Self-hosted servers do not have this issue. Controls Indicator overlay (RCTRL+ENTER) missing 3D model damage WIP (first iteration) Additional English HUD/HDD version (fictional for convenience) Known issues to be patched: Autopilot-induced oscillations, mostly visual on stick, no effect on flight path below 600 KpH Landing/taxi lights issues - the light from penetrates into the model. Brake chute is not visible for other clients in multiplayer, physics working correctly When using FCR, missile launch is not blocked in the absence of a LA signal on the HUD/HDD. Ejection sequence and animation improvements. Cannon muzzle flash improvement Ejected cartridge animation The logic of the CAJ (Compensation Active Jammer) switch is not implemented when working with jamming. Imperial units cockpit version IAS indicator animation issue with Mach number. 3D models enhancements in progress: Finalization of the main texture, wear and tear. Technical inscriptions and stencils. Main landing gear bay high detail. Detailing of the air brake and the drag chute container. Main technical hatches and equipment bays. Detailing of the IRST.

Support for all available maps The device starts as powered on and switched to the map display on a hot start DCS: F-16C Viper by Eagle Dynamics Fixed: Emergency jettison does not remember master mode when done in A-G and resets to NAV. Fixed: Duplicating Thrust axes on the VPC Throttle MT-50CM3 joystick. Fixed: Bullseye text on FCR format appears blurry. Fixed: Landing Gear Handle light should illuminate when landing gear doors are in transit. Fixed: ECM pod continues to emit in Mode 3 if switched to Mode 1 or 2. Fixed: AI - Doesn't seem to be able to use new ATP. Fixed: AGM-65 WPN rdr cursor slew inputs below 5% do not move maverick seeker. Fixed: HTS/HAD overlapping emitters causes major/minor axis error and azimuth to rapidly change between values. Fixed: Missing HOTAS AG Gun Strafe Toggle. Fixed: AN/AAQ-33 ATP A-A TGP stops following radar track after bugging target in TWS. DCS: F/A-18C Hornet by Eagle Dynamics Fixed: Odd target designation/undesignation behavior due to MSI. Fixed: Center pylon mounted LITENING will continue to work if jettisoned. Fixed: Radar Contributed SURV tracks in TWS do not switch to full size HAFU's, enveloped by the radar circle. Fixed: The HAFU tracks start interfering with each other for the same target and sometimes doesn't even show that it's an L&S or DT2 target even though it is. Fixed: JDAM with FMU-152 Wrong EFUZ options. Fixed: Countermeasures. 4 chaff instead of 2 in Bypass mode. Fixed: MSI AIM-120C launches cause huge desync. Fixed: (AI) - In a group, wingman will never engage targets. Fixed: TWS switching between targets without MSI - NWS/undesignate. Fixed: No longer possible to lock target with TDC depress in RWS mode. Issue remains with LTWS disabled, will be fully fixed next patch. Fixed: AIM-9 quiet seeker uncage tone sometimes. Fixed: BST and HACQ range can be increased to 40nm. Fixed: Closing velocity (Vc) on RDR ATTK display is misplaced at the bottom for any case other than STT. Fixed: MSI - L&S and DT2 do not get deleted upon entering ACM mode. DCS: AH-64D by Eagle Dynamics Fixed: George stuck on a search loop under a certain flow. FM. Tweaked Yaw SCAS: Some users complained about excessive yaw-wobble during control by pedals and in transient modes when the helicopter's SCAS Heading Hold mode is ON. DCS: Mi-24P Hind by Eagle Dynamics Fixed Glitched texture blocks that were obstructing side gunner view DCS: Mi-8MTV2 Magnificent Eight by Eagle Dynamics Board numbers disappeared - fixed DCS: F4U-1D Corsair by Magnitude 3 Added three Royal New Zealand Air Force liveries.

Fixed Mk 339 fuze function delay being counted down after arming instead of after release BL755. Added fuze function delay options GMLRS. Added animation of rotation of the tail stabilizers block BetAB-500ShP. Improved bombsight accuracy in normal release conditions (release at 500 m altitude) Fixed non-detonation of bombs in certain conditions Fixed IRIS-T missiles constantly switching between command and IR guidance, which caused them to miss. Terrain Engine Tuned lazy loading of 3D models. We already had asynchronous loading in place, and this update adds complementary optimizations to ensure only the models needed in the current situation are loaded. This should slightly improve loading times in both the Mission Editor and mission startup. Voice chat Fixed. Crash on exiting from DCS when the “Pending request” window is open. Launcher Added. Help page with access to FAQ, User support, myReach AI helper, etc. DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum by Eagle Dynamics First week patch updates: The animations for the cannon trigger and the missile trigger to be swapped. Lock indication is not resetting after lock break. But logic is working correctly and radar stops locking. Air intake louvers animation corrections. Provide lower resolution textures cockpit option CHAFF/FLARE sequence corrections. When repairing after a wheels up landing, the repair completes, but the landing gear is not lowered, so after repair you are dropped back on your belly, negating the repair. IFF issues for clients connected to the mission hosted on a dedicated server. Single Player or Self-hosted servers do not have this issue. Controls Indicator overlay (RCTRL+ENTER) missing 3D model damage WIP (first iteration) Additional English HUD/HDD version (fictional for convenience) Known issues to be patched: Autopilot-induced oscillations, mostly visual on stick, no effect on flight path below 600 KpH Landing/taxi lights issues - the light from penetrates into the model.

  15. In this DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum video, we’ll discuss operation of the Fulcrums radar, the Infrared Search and Track system, or IRST, and using them with Fulcrum’s air-to-air weapons. The radar provides all-weather, day or night detection and tracking of aerial targets in an electronic warfare environment for beyond visual range combat and short-range close combat modes. This includes settings designed to maximum performance based target closure rate, automatic designation, and antenna steering. The IRST on the other hand provides shorter range, yet passive aerial target detection based on target infrared signature. Both the radar and IRST can also work cooperatively. The Fulcrum also boasts a Helmet Mounted Sight, or HMS, to cue high-off boresight missiles like the R-73 ‘Archer’. NOTE 1: This video was created with a pre-release version, and elements will likely change at release and after. NOTE 2: Sensor work will continue like fleshed-out cooperative sensor logic and tuning. NOTE 3: Two more videos will follow: Ground Attack and Defensive Systems. 0:00 Introduction 1:06 RAD (Radar) BVR Mode 10:50 IR (Infrared) Mode 14:07 CC (Close Combat) Mode 15:02 HELM (Helmet Mounted Sight) Mode 16:36 Steerable Cursor (OPT) Mode 17:42 Boresight (BS) Mode 18:30 Reticle 19:22 Asynchronous Gun Mode (Lead Computed Optical Sight) 21:57 Gun Funnel Mode

  17. RSBN/PRMG ground units usage guide We have prepared additional units for RSBN/PRMG navigation and landing systems. These will help you to set up RSBN/PRMG environment in any airfield. We have made it so these units can be placed freely anywhere on the map which will give some additional freedom for mission makers. The set of this system consists of three individual components/units: · RSBN trailer/car (You can compare it with TACAN beacon) · PRMG Glidepath trailer/car (Glidepath signal for landing) · PRMG Localizer trailer/car (Localizer signal for landing) You can find them in relevant countries in Mission Editor under Ground Unit > Unarmed category. Let’s list nuances for each one of those components so you will get good understanding of how you can use them. RSBN car This unit is origin of RSBN signal. To activate RSBN on it you need to add Advanced waypoint action > Perform Command > Activate RSBN/PRMG beacon. Channel field in this command corresponds to the channel aircraft equipped with compatible system will tune into. 40 channels available in total. Callsign field corresponds to transmitted callsign over radio via Morse code. This unit can be installed anywhere within airfield, bearing in mind it is an origin of RSBN signal for the vectoring aircraft. PRMG Localizer car This unit is origin of the PRMG localizer vector signal. Follow the rule of installing it 200 meters after the end of the runway to which landing is performed to. Bear in mind that landing aircraft need to have clean line of sight to that unit to get the signal from it. If unit is placed on the slope and covered by the terrain hill for instance, landing aircraft won’t be able to get a good signal from it. PRMG units should be placed on the same elevation plane as the runway. Also, it is important to set unit heading to be aligned with runway landing heading. Additional symbology in mission editor is available when unit is highlighted, and we also added ability to fine tune heading with decimal numbers. To activate PRMG signal on it you need to add Advanced waypoint action > Perform Command > Activate RSBN/PRMG beacon. The general rule for the operators of these systems was to set channels as: RSBN channel + 2 = PRMG channel PRMG glidepath car This unit is origin of the PRMG glidepath vector signal. The rule of installing it is 300 meters after the runway start and on the side. This distance is important to adhere to in order to have correct landing vectors for glidepath. Distance on the side can be various and main practical point is to have this localizer car on the same altitude and plane as runway, otherwise landing glideslope will be inaccurate. To activate PRMG signal on it you need to add Advanced waypoint action > Perform Command > Activate RSBN/PRMG beacon. The general rule for the operators of these systems was to set channels as: RSBN channel + 2 = PRMG channel Overall setup example PRMG Glidepath and PRMG Localizer units operating for same location should be set to the same PRMG channel. Here is full setup example on the Beslan airfield
  18. Hi, we will need track replays from both sides to try and reproduce this. If possible use caucasus terrain and just the units needed for the test. thank you
  19. The issue you are seeing is a known issue in the SHKVAL when there is a launch, I do not have a fix for this yet. thank you
  20. A fix for this will be in todays planned patch thank you
  21. Patch notes will release just before the patch goes live, planned for tomorrow the 17th
  22. Vulkan is in progress but wont be ready for a while, we will share news when we are ready to. thanks
  23. we have reported this already thank you
