So after the recent (today) changelog of the 2.5.1 Hotfix 1 is there any new function to the WP? Seems that Intervall settings are still not working atm.

Don't want to ruin your day guys but it doesn't seem so.

These targets are not intended to get destroyed at all. The strafe pit (with the brake chute) will get holes in RL but it would be stupid to rebuild the targets for every single approach or fighter. The NTTR strafe targets are also old tanks which won't be replaced after every run. You can observe you performance (optical or by a script) and do the next run without setting everything up again. It's working as intended...

Thanks for the update. Sounds great Nicholas.

It's in Beta state. Get it here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/beta/

You can't simply put a NVG on your head. Your instruments (lighting f.e.) has to be at least NVG compatible. A reason why german tornado recces couldn't fly in syria at night for the first months. The problem I see with the next "option" is that server admins will loose the overview if every module has 1000 does and don'ts. That's the reason why all these mods are out there.

Use a mod if you are not happy with RL restrictions? Everyone piloting a sim heli should be able to copy/paste some files but no need to integrate it into the module.

Yeap, ordered 22 hours ago and already on the way :thumbup:

For me the decision has fallen. Will be Virpil. I'm afraid that as EU customer there is no other logical choice. I know that VKB make great products and has a great team for NA and Asia and I'm a bit envious to all outside EU guys but this poor one man show called EU distribution and customer service taking 2 months to migrate a website (announced on valentines day and not complete yet) makes me cry. I can live with getting products later (1 year) than the others, I can also live with delays. But what should I think of such a support. How will I get my spare parts, will I get them at all? Last but not least I'm waiting since three months for an answer if the european store will get the Warthog adapters for the Gunfighter Pro Mk2. Sorry VKB EU, life is too short for this. I would recommend finding a new partner or better partners for the EU sale :music_whistling:

Thanks for this brilliant update Cobra. You and your teammates are close to fulfil one of my oldest dreams regarding combat sims :thumbup:

+1 @ Esac The same hate only in different forums by the same people. If people are so upset by the modules and even the state of 2.5. Summer is coming, enjoy the fresh air, spend time with your families or meet friends. I mean real ones, not the social media friends.

Good old times. People should indeed be more thankful how things developed. From todays point FC and Lock on were nothing more than eye candy loaded arcade games. I remember times were every gaming magazine told me flight sims are dead. And a reminder for all the complainers, you find weakpoints on every single module. Not to mention multicrew promises for a helo (not Gazelle, this is working fine for a 3rd party dev) more than 3 years ago. So stop the M2000 flaming and try to add some constructive critics or stay quite like I do most of the time.

Ein neuer DCS Teaser ist online. Schaut vor allem mal in die Beschreibung was an Flugzeugen kommt. Ich denke die F-16C dürfte eine große Überraschung sein.

+1 Especially all the armchair flight engineers are flooding the forums during the last months... Visited Laage AFB and was able to see the Typhoon simulator in action including the computers behind the scenes... Getting this you should think about selling your house. And that of your parents and grandparents too.

Not sure if it is a typo error from you but the mission briefing (at least the PDF version) says that WP9 is the ambush point where to wait for the convoy. Will play it myself the coming days and report back. EDIT: I finished the mission just some minutes ago. It is an error in the ingame Briefing screen. Stick to the very nice written PDF Briefing which tells you to wait at WP9. The convoi is moving in front of you from east to west. Spotting it is not so easy beacause of the fantastic 2.5 trees :lol: After you made your first hit they will disperse so keep patient if you can't find No.2. After 5 minutes they will continue their road march. Good luck! Very nice mission btw., 10m @ 200km/h avoiding AA sites makes the heart skip some beats :thumbup:

Don't believe every s*** you read on the net. There is some minor work left but even the Huey isn't perfect (https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3274982&postcount=222) Make yourself an opinion but don't give anything on clickbait posts, Youtube channels or even my opinion.

Yes!

Thx for the clarification. Another problem by the inconsistent tests of the OP. During #7 1:55 he never pushed the stick back to increase load. And thanks dimitriov for looking into it :thumbup:

Have checked my track in Tacview and was not able to exceed 1,3 G during a level roll to the right with only the use of the cyclic so please tell me how you get over 3G. Anyways, due to this literature: Cyclic & Collective More Art & Science of Flying Helicopters by Shawn Coyle most helicopters are limited to 3G, in special cases 3,5 so why should I fly in an envelope that is not possible at all? Tacview-20180318-154631-DCS-Gazelle.trk.zip.zip

If it only occurs during let's say every second maneuver I would not blame the FM. I attached a track doing this stuff twice with perfect instant reaction by the helicopter. Maybe OP you check your DCS version and afterwards your control setup? Gazelle.trk

Im a bit puzzled. I don't have the time to watch all the videos but run the last. So what I have seen is: 1:55 full right Input, aircraft starting to bank 1:56 release right Input and beginning left input 1:57 helicopter reacts 1:58 helicopter is flying straight You did a right 90° turn and banked straight again in 3 seconds. Pretty good for a helicopter don't you think so? This is no X-Wing. Maybe I understand something wrong since I'm no native speaker but what had this to do with the collective after all?

Thx Dolphin. A small story for you guys, some years ago I was engaged in a discussion regarding the MiG's speed limit. I was sure as hell that I'm correct because Tacview said so. Vyrtuoz confirmed to me that his software had an error reading the flight instruments that time. On that day I learned to question at first the tools with which we work when accusing developers doing fundamental errors in FM programming. A further lesson I learned from Tharos and Esac was to always compare modules to it's RL charts and manuals and not other modules since this seem to be a new kind of sport recently. Feel free to laugh over my naivety, ignore everything I said or take a message home but I would hope that at least some of you guys change your attitude a bit. Otherwise I would have only one wish. Keep this stuff out of the other 3rd party dev forums which I use frequently, it really ruins my day and is far from constructive. Maybe this gives you a hint why devs aren't talking to the community. And regarding dev time.... Maybe some of you are simply not long enough here to know how long it took ED for finishing Nevada

A: Im pretty sure they read it. ED also doesn't comment their FM when WiP B: Cant judge on it If you followed his M2000, F-15 and SU-27 thesis you would know that it would be 300 pages of wasted time... Funny how easy some of you guys are impressed by some formulas, basic physics and some tacviews of errors in some margin flight envelopes...
