  1. 2.9.5 released. Fulcrum feels good so far thankyou....
  2. I would never expect them to work for nothing. Would have no problem with a charge for a Tomcat 2.0 similar to what ED did with the A10C. this thread mentioned wish list in the title. It is my personal wish list. And if memory serves me correct I believe HB mentioned the pilot bodies were not the finished article with the Tomcat and they wanted to revisit them in time.
  3. Wishlist: I would like to see the pilot bodies brought up to the standards we see in the F4E. They are lacking a little compared to some recent releases in my opinion. Plus they are lacking animation for the toe brakes etc. also the F4E cockpit just looks better to me? Not sure how everyone else feels, maybe it’s just because of the newer development and an increase in technology and capabilities? Glove vanes would be nice for this early model A I guess. the rest I’m aware HB are working on early model A etc. overall the feel of the Tomcat is great, it’s still one of the best DCS modules.
  4. No TWS auto because if I distanced the targets or one distances themselves briefly I am able to launch two missiles one at each. But with Jester once one missile has been launched at each you can then no longer launch another salvo at the same targets if that makes sense.
  5. If I’m intercepting a formation from long range often the radar can’t distinguish between contacts if they are in a close formation (understandable). so say I launch a phoenix from around 40nm and then say I want to launch another pheonix at 25nm, the radar jester is controlling won’t let me launch another pheonix at this time because all he can see is a single contact which I have already launched at. I know a workaround to this which is switching to the back seat then pressing key command Next Launch. Then I can return to the front seat and resume my pilot role. What I would like to know is if there’s a way to ask Jester to do this without leaving the front seat? I’ve looked at the Jester commands under the pilot controls and can’t see anything like it. or put another way I want to launch more than one missile at a single target in TWS mode.
  6. Its ok there is the option to install to both. However I've tried the file and now i'm getting a constant error System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array error. I remember having this before and cant for the life of me remember how I fixed it I think I had to delete everything existing in one of the simshaker folders but this isnt working now unfortunately.
  7. Thankyou will try that later
  8. Ok I had no idea this file was available, is it on the same page as the latest stable and Beta release?
  9. i've tried downloading FC3 Mig 29 & Su27 definitely not working for me and the FFMig 29 is not recognised as either of them, latest OB release 2.9.4. Just need to wait for the OB to be updated.
  10. ok thanks I'll play around a bit and see if i can get it working
  11. so its running for you when you just load simshaker for aviators beta and run as normal and fly the new mig? maybe I need to download FC Su27 and see if that makes the mig work SimShaker for Aviators
  12. No new Mig29 doesn't work with current latest OB release.
  13. thanks for the link Now have it working
  14. In the navigation tutorial video the method to set up the PRMG is vague. I can complete the tutorial training mission and understand the methods to use it to land the aircraft. However I cant work out how it is set up in the mission editor. In one of WAGS videos he sets up an RSBN car channels 3 and 5 at airbases. However when landing at the airbase the ILS channel is set to 6. So obviously these cars are not used for the ILS guidance and just as RSBN beacons. In the tutorial video however I see he has another unit on his recovery AB with channel 6 and a heading 181 degrees. Is this the unit he has used to give out a PRMG/ILS signal? If so this has not been explained and is this just a RSBN car? Also in the video he sets up his ARC-19 frequency but does not use the ARC-19 from what I can see in the tutorial. I have set my ARC-19 inner and outer Freqs for Maykop Khanskaya but this does not effect the needles on the HSI. I see in the mission editor forMaykop Khanskaya on Caucasus map there is a DG channel 36 for the airfield approach. again tried this channel on the MIg but still no signal received. Can anyone give me some guidance on this I've been trying to understand this for hours now but cant work it out.
  15. I’ve wanted a proper Mig-29 module in DCS for a long time. It feels great, cockpit looks great, it sounds great. It’s probably so far for me the most impressive DCS module release. I’m very pleased with it.
  16. Could this be added in the special options tab? With my Thrustmaster throttle I have a physical detent mod, and I normally set the sim to mimic when I reach this physical detent. It works with most other modules really well. I find with the Mig 29 and the TM warthog throttle reheat is reached quite a lot before this detent. Would be really handy to have this setting.
  17. Doesn’t matter what I set this to in options frame rate in mirror is very choppy or at least what I am seeing is very choppy however I have decent frame rates in game? This is the only module where this happens can it be looked into. I use VR. EDIT: I apologise ED I jumped the gun, for some reason after restarting the game, and setting mirrors at 512 every frame the picture in the mirror is much smoother and mimics the rest of the gameplay. What I was forgetting was I needed to restart the Sim to apply these changes, as in the past you often get a prompt to say restart to make changes, and I didn't look and see the small *. But at first when loaded the Mig 29 mirrors were terribly slow. I advise if anyone experiences this experiment with your settings but remember to restart the sim. Overall I would like to say it feels dynamic, its a lovely flight model, and overall its so much fun to fly. It feels like the most convincing flight model in DCS, I'm no jet fighter pilot but I have flown aircraft and this feels great in my view. I've waited a long time for a proper Mig 29, it feels like it really belongs in DCS and is one we should have had from the start. I love this thankyou.
  18. Hi Andre. Is the latest version supporting the new Mig 29? if not can we expect an update soon. Hoping to fly the new mig29 for the first time this evening. Thanks for your good work.
  19. I apologise if this has been answered but will Murharraq Airbase Bahrain be included in Southern Iraq map? There are some missions I would love to recreate if we ever do get a Tornado.
  20. Yes it’s awesome
  21. Thought this feature was close ED as per one of your Friday newsletters. What happened?
  22. Don’t think I’ve been this excited for a module release for a long time. Probably since the F14. I’m very hyped about the fulcrum. Still pretty angry about the Razbam situation particularly the Harrier personally as I fly that a lot. But I’ll still be getting the Fulcrum 100% it’s just such a great looking jet with so much character.

    Level flight speed

    Does anyone know of a way you can definitely tell if the water injection is working? Aside from activating the water injection switch then pushing to full throttle I can’t seem to tell. Before the last update the green light would glow showing water was low. Now the light does not illuminate for me.
  24. Hi anyone else experiencing this? Bombs releasing in Auto/Laydown mode. I Tried again this morning and on first attempt bombs left the aircraft, but I realised I had set no fusing. 2nd attempt bombs would not release, so set fusing to safe again to attempt to recreate but after another go around again no release so I cant recreate that. I already have dead zone on TDC although I struggle to see why this would be a culprit but there is 100% and issue here on my setup. EDIT: I appear to have found another workaround if anyone is experiencing the same issue. If you adjust your bomb fall cue with a tap of TDC aft or forward it seems to give authorisation for the bombs to release. I have my TDC on an axis on my TM warthog same as I'm sure with most hotas users so I've had to assign a press switch for TDC Forward and AFT because the sensitivity of an axis throws the bombing cue way off. So after designating a waypoint as a target with the DESG button, the waypoint will change from circle to a diamond on the HUD, tap TDC forward with a press switch the diamond on the HUD will now have a circle around it, TDC AFT to place your bombing cue back onto its original assignment and now bombs are releasing, I've tried this now lofting (pulling at 3.0 nm 30 degree pull up) and shallow dive and level overfly release all are working.
