Well I think I’m gonna keep 1.5.8 release for a while after the big merge arrives and just delete 2.2 open alpha and 2.5 open beta. My reasoning being if the new Cacausus map isn’t optimised well (and I really hope it is - looks awesome) then at least I’ll have something to fall back to that I know is pretty decent fps wise and I won’t lose any flying time. I’m still having some fps issues with 2.2 NTTR and Normandy, so presumably the new Caucasus will have a similar fps state.

Yeah, I’m buzzin’ for this. I play the last campaign all the time when I’m not flying the Harrier and I’m über looking forward for that campaign as well! There just isn’t enough time in the day

HELP. I can’t land the Mirage anymore after the recent change!!! It seems I have to land at like 220 knots to keep the hud AoA markets correct otherwise it just seems to bomb. Is there a new procedure to land correctly please. Cheers

And a nice little animation by RAZBAM of the basket coming out of the KC-130 fuel pod rather than just appearing fully opened would be nice as well. My OP for this is because I spend a lot of time practicing AAR so these little things give a little bit more immersion. Can't remember anything being said but it's the Great Merge soon so maybe.........

Tbh, even if there was no damage to either drogue or aircraft that would suit me. Just some sort of collision detection. As it stands the probe doesn’t sit right in the drought half the time either when connected (when I’m brave enough look left to see it!)

I had this issue for a while. Is your hud symbology correct? The target should be a diamond in a square. I’ve had issues where the square doesn’t appear around the diamond therefore the missile won’t fire. Sometimes at takes ages - we’ll after the 7km max distance has reached.

Why is my Harrier roll rate so low (slick or armed to the teeth) compared to this video, is there a switch or something to make it more responsive? Cheers

Click the Simshaker blog link in f410 post above -should be in there somewhere

Cheers, f410 - will update.

Have they said they intend to use this speedtree thing? They do look pretty nice by the way

Must be just me then. Lol

Works for me. Are you using the release or beta for version of Simshaker? I think it only works with the beta version iirc

M570 trackball for me which is semi-permanently velcroed to a mini pull out hinged table I added to my handmade table (an old school woodwork table), Viacom too which is invaluable, everything else I need is on my Warthog.

Cool. I wish we had some of those animations in game too.

Love that second one, beautiful lighting!

It knows it’s in the bloody name hence why I even wrote it!! You’ll be one of those babies then. Lol

Considering that we already have AI civilian traffic - with its own civilian slider in the options menu none the less - I really do find the behaviour of some babies on this forum appalling. There are already servers dedicated to NON combat so if you don’t frequent those servers why get tetchy and so hung up on DCS being ‘combat’ only? Bearing in mind this is M3’s and not (as far as I know) ED’s vision to have every aviation type in DCS. Admittedly I’m not really a massive fan of what M3 are releasing but I see zero reason why people should be pretty bad mannered about M3’s choice either. Don’t like it, don’t buy it, it’s really that simple. Anyways as M3 say it was an aircraft they used for testing future WW2 aircraft so either way it’s not as if they will lose manpower or money building new airframes because of the CE2 in fact they can only make money whether that will be a lot or a little is probably irrelevant as it may never have been their intention to sell it as a module anyways. Therefore profit will be gained on top of experience of module building and coding etc. Win-win for M3

There’s also going to big Viacom update (or at least a new version - 2.5) in the next couple of weeks which I think makes it more integrated with DCS world. It really is awesome and powerful tool, much better than VAC which I also used for a couple of years.

I dunno. I always liked the Pitts 2 Special so this is a fairly similar frame. I really see no issue with it. Why not have red bull air races around Nevada or aerobatics? Who cares what DCS stands for? Depends how much it’s gona sell for, if it’s cheap enough I’ll prob get it for a laugh - use loads of them for some aerial gunnery practice or something. Beautiful model though

I do like the idea of it, but like in the real aircraft I bet (especially in vr) you'll get really sick really quickly when your pilot is doing all sort of erratic manoeuvers!!!

Looks like a puffer fish with rotors!

I literally read something a couple of days ago from ED saying they were going to release 2.5 ‘within 2 months’. This was after Wags saying ‘we are just weeks away’. It was a comment by ED on a FB post so you’ll have to hunt it out

I have my headset hanging up on the wall behind my monitor, so Oculus Home only starts when I bring it further forward than my sensors (which sit either side of the monitor). Hope that helps.
