battle damage assessment, not bomb damage assistance.

Even sooner, we'll have the Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt II. :) But I digress.

Ya, that was my first thought too.

It was only a couple of days ago using open beta version 2.5.6.43453 that was released Friday, February 14.

Track files don't seem to work too well unfortunately. But I was flying long distance at over 30,000 ft when the batteries overheated. I isolated them but they never cooled down for the rest of the flight. After several minutes of isolating them, the master warning light came on and "Battery" showed up on the warning/caution panel. As I said, this is pre-patch. I'll try again after I install the patch.

Some nice improvements. So, if the batteries overheat and you isolate them, they will cool down now? I did a flight pre-patch and I couldn't get them to cool down. I eventually got the battery warning because they were disconnected too long.

Looks like item # 2 has been fixed. Also, landing/taxi light bug is fixed and GPU not disconnecting is fixed. Thanks guys.

I had to google GIYF.:doh:

ED has made many pretty planes.:)

Guess stars are kinda tricky since you can only go down to one pixel. In the real night sky, many stars are just the faintest of specs. Guess they could play with the brightness a bit to somewhat compensate.

He's actually just a bot. :lol:

I'm sure ED hopes for this week but no promises.

Can't watch the video where I am but it is probably F6 for weapon view and then Ctrl-F11 to stop chasing the bomb.

After the Mirage of course. ;)

I definitely see a performance improvement in 2.5.6. With my modest system, I'm pretty much stuck around 30 FPS. But I see less stutter when taxiing around air bases even with mirrors on. And at higher altitudes, I can get 60 FPS (something I don't get in the release branch).

Hi, guys. Just reporting a few lighting bugs in open beta 2.5.6. 1. When starting cold and dark, all the external lights are on. 2. The cockpit flood and storm lights illuminate the tarmac / runway below the cockpit. 3. The rear cockpit's storm light seems to partly illuminate the front cockpit. And, not sure if this is a bug but when you turn on instrument lighting, some of the instruments like the airspeed indicator have bluish-white light reflections on them. I've been trying to figure out what the light source would be.

I think because in DCS, building lights aren't really light sources. They're really just textures.

Were there changes to the FM? Anyways, thanks to AvioDev for continuing to work on my goto module.:)

Do the fire bombs have a fire effect?

The power supply issue appears to be happening in the F-14 as well.
