  1. Another F15 vs A10 thread. . . . . Why keep A10 when you have army aviation ?
  2. Err... I do not understand ? Why are you posting picture of the real aircraft ? :music_whistling: :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
  3. I can t really add more than this. I could not believe that the aircrat body could mask AB. Well it can.
  4. A friend bought the game and offered me a copy. Damn, that game is really good. I'll surely have to find some mod to make it a little bit harder tho - but i like the way they did it. Any suggestion for mods, beside mps ?
  5. I never heard about such possibility. If your missile path isn't too high in the sky, you can try to head the missile back to the ground so it destruct itself on the ground ?
  6. Hi GGtharos, Could it be possible to use modern electronic so a missile guidance could "sort" multiple heat signal, and then decide which one looks like a flare and one looks like an aircraft - for example by using signal path over time ? I don't know much - As you know a lot, I may learn something tonight :thumbup:
  7. SU-27 and F-15 are must-have. I don't worry too much, it's likely we'll get full DCS: F-15 and full DCS: Cy-27 one day or another... . .... That day been obviously in a far far, and far future.
  8. That may be confusing for new player. I already spend a lot of time explaining to my pilots what are the differences but now ....
  9. It took them 40 years to come up with something in the class of the Hind. :thumbup: :music_whistling: It look nice tho. Thank you for sharing the video with us !!
  10. Steel Beast can be the best, it is pricy and ugly, so not many people are interrested. After SBP, they is only WW2OL and ArmA. The first one is great, but also ugly and expensive as it's monthly basis. The second one could be great and has a lot of potential... yet BIS clearly shown they have no interrest at all in simulators. So it's damn Shitty at the moment. And afterward... hell. . . BF.. WoT... They is a clear and huge HOLE between SPB and the other games I mentionned. DCS has a great potentiel to fill that gap. I'm really happy that Eagle Dynamics is taking that path. It may not be interresting for SPB users. But believe me, I believe a lot of my friends will buy it straight away, and most of them aren't DCS pilots or only occasionnally. :joystick:
  11. Ok i'll make a try. Data : -Report emerges that airliners would have been seen flying low over the Maldives. -At the same time those reports start to make some noise, sattelite give totally different track that does not match the visual sight. -The pilot is rumored to have flew approaches to Diego Garcia AFB, Sri Lanka and Maldives. My Theory : Aircraft has been diverted to Diego Garcia AFB. I would have said any other place around the Maldives including Africa and terrorist.... but here i suspect that the Sat' data is a spoof since it point any direction but the Maldives - plus officials tried to downplay that rumor. For the reason why and what ? Well.... could be a lot of things. Only question i haven't verified is the timing between the sighting and the last known position.
  12. Sorry. Please fell free to delete this message. I understand completely :)
  13. Good and regular news are needed ... "the other" WW2 game project always get weekly news and they have been only 1 time in a year where the update was late (1 day. Just late one day)...
  14. Javelina, The thing is a keyboard emulator. I currently use it with Flamming cliff, can't comment yet on other modules as i haven't mapped them yet. I'll try to describe how i set so you have an idea. Actually, every time you touch a key, it will emulate a keyboard press. You can either have a switch have a key press when On and another for off, or have the same. Since most of action use the same button for ON and OFF (except Landing gear), i mapped most of the button with the same keyboard press, whether i set the button on or off. Currently, i use the following : Battery for Battery. Cowl for the Canopy Panel for the instrument light Nav for the navigation light Taxi for the Taxi light. Gear up for gear up gear down for gear down --> gear lever has two key option in DCS, Youhouuuuuu I'm currently trying to find a way to alter key presses in DCS but no luck yet. Actually, the thing is useful. especially the gear up / gear down switch. The nav and landing lights are quite messy but not the fault of the plugin dev - it's DCS limitation. THE ONLY THING is that you have to make sure all buttons are at OFF status before launching the flight, if you are making a cold start. since the game doesn't constantly monitor the buttons, if you Battery is physically ON but you just started the game, pressing the Battery OFF will start it in the game. (will be inverted). It's just a little downside, but when you take the habbit to properly land your plane and set everything off after every parking/crash (especially crash for me :P ), you will not have issue. :) I wish they could be some way to export the gear light. I'll try to put up a video later, but i'm quite busy and my camera s****. Actually, If you only plan to fly DCS, that's quite an expensive accessory for only a few function. But if you also fly other simulators, that may be a nice addition ! The panel is overall plastic but good quality. 4 years now and no issue at all. (As a comparison, took me 2 weeks to break a HOTAS Warthog)
  15. Most confusing is EB1 being missing for a couple of month.....
  16. I'm currently reinstalling my computer, so i did not tested and installed all my sim. Here is the list of software i'm planning to use with your plugin : IL2 - 1946 IL2 - Battle Of stalingrad Falcon 4 War Thunder
  17. Hi there. We have a hell of a problem here. On some day, i can host game, on others, my friends can't see my server. The other days, it's the opposite. My friends can host, on some other days, we can't see them in the lobby. Version are the same, it has been like this for month. Last week i could host the game, today I cannot anymore. Nothing to do with update since we have same version number and it has been like this forever. Any idea?
  18. Dcs run well on my 4yrs old ati. Unsure chip brand has an effect. I had the same question regarding upgrade. Finally went for two r9 270, as i need a lot of output. To research brand/model, i recommend the site futuremark, home of the graphic test software 3dmark. It lists all the cpu/gpu and allows you to compare specs, price and performance, taken out of thousands and thousands of tests from their customer. Helped me a lot in my choice. http://www.futuremark.com/hardware
  19. Well. We sukkhoi pilots have the EOS. .... you have Fire&forget Amraam.
  20. X plane is so realistic i could make a loop right after takeoff, with a fully loaded 747. Xplane ? Seriously i prefer dcs, and even fsx.
  21. Mig 21 pictures are cool - should be quoted at least twice :P
  22. I think I did not made it clear. Outerra engine process bulk data into a 3d world. The limitation of that technology is the fact that you have anyway to place 3D objects manually thru additionnal sceneries. So by the end of the day you have two options : Bulk data -> engine -> 3d world about whatever the engine can do with bulk data Bulk data -> human developper -> 3D world. More time consuming, more accurate, detailled and living world. Simple fact is the amount of scenery done for FSX, while FSX can render the entire world, its innacuracy, despite wide range of tree/houses/random 3d model, can't make the place believable. That is due to the procedural rendering engine vs prebuilt scenery engine (or whatever they call it in english).
  23. .......... http://tbo.com/list/military-news/fish-strike-interrupts-jets-takeoff-at-macdill-20140304/ DCS is not realistic. We don't have the Fish Strike slider in options.
