BIGNEWY

Hi, not seeing any issue here, but please attach your dcs log from the session when it happens and a track replay we will investigate. Also please attach your dxdiag. thank you

Yes I believe so, but please test and let me know your experience

Hi, yes its going to be great especially for the PTO. We do not have any dates to share currently, for now we have announced our plans and work is in progress. thank you

Yes the dynamic cargo system

Unofficial mods will always be unofficial, and I am sorry if you think there is no mod support, but frankly without our platform the DCS modders would not have the opportunity to show their great work. And many of the mods are great, we have even added some to the core of DCS. But not everyone can be chosen to be added. So please do not derail this thread thank you

always best to remove unofficial mods for patches.

Enjoy!

Patch is live now

I dont think that comment is fair, its been a long time since the F-16C release and we have had good launches since. With that said lets not derail this thread. thank you

yep was a high priority

yeah its been a pain for sure. Fix will be nice.

yes some fixes for ATP, change log will have details thanks

I dont think this one, but they are planning a large update soon.

Patch notes discussion August 2025 Release Version Current version number: DCS 2.9.18.12899 Next planned update: 13th August 2025 ( subject to change )

Thanks, are you using a xmp profile for your RAM? Your dxdiag shows some memory timing issues, it maybe be worth trying default values and see if you notice a difference. Also with windows 10 EOL consider upgrading to windows 11, you may find better performance with it as it handles cores much better then windows 10. Also are you using VR? Just noticed your desktop resolution does not match your dcs resolution.

Ships and other unit damage model improvements are planned for the future, it wont happen soon as we already have a lot of work to do. We have adjusted some warheads recently and that will help, and we are also working on better fragmentation that will also enhance the current implementation. thank you

Hi, thanks for the track. First of all, you're air-starting this flight, when this happens the weapons are pre-boresighted, there's no need to perform this alignment. I'd assume you did this just for demonstration purposes and refer to the boresighting from a cold start, which is indeed required. However, from your track you're performing this boresighting way too close to the target area and this will introduce a major parallax error. It's advised boresighting should be performed at or above 3nm (at least) to reduce these errors. Just be aware that the TPOD and the Maverick units are looking from different POVs and therefore, parallax is inevitable. hope that helps

Hi, we are discussing JDAM pre-planned self-guidance improvements internally, but I do not have any news to share currently. thank you

Folks please don't derail the thread with subscription chatter, we have said many times in the past its not something that will work for DCS, and we have no plans for it. Topic here is Pacific Operations Assets Pack | Mission Save Development Progress | New Free Trials thank you

Agreed, we can not please everyone all of the time, but hopefully along the journey of DCS development we can bring some fun and joy to people who love the combat flight sim genre. We get lots of private messages from people who want to complain or want to tell us how much they like DCS, the forum is only a snap shot of what is going on. Overall I feel its positive feedback we are getting, but we will always listen to the negative feedback, it gives us insight and often gives us new ideas to work on. thank you

Ive been active on the form since 2011, yes we do see posts like this occasionally, and I get it, for some it is frustrating when we do not do what they wont or how they want it. Everyone has wishes, hopes and dreams and when those are not realised it can be frustrating. Hopefully most of you enjoy DCS and want to see it continue to grow, and it is growing which is great to see, new people joining and falling in love with DCS.
