I'm also a proud owner of the Wheel Stand Pro. These guys are great, you tell them what hardware you use and they deliver a fitting version. I use a version for the Saitek Combat rudder pedals and the TM Hotas with a small plate which carries only the stick. The quality is really good and the system weights 12,5 kg (~25 lbs) which ensures a safe stand. I can strongly recommend it :thumbup:

The move to DCS 1.5 Last time I reinstalled DCS from the scratch I had no luck in importing my control settings. Even the search function was not much of a help. Would be nice if we could start a installation migration thread. When ED launches the new 1.5 version in september my intention was to switch the OS from 7 to 10 by a clean install. Last time i saved my "saved games/DCS/config" folder an copied it into the new installation I had no luck in using my old control settings including some problems with updates until I initiated a repair. Would be great if some of you can share your knowledge how to correctly save and export the control settings. EDIT: I have seen that whitehot posted a similar thread some minutes ago so moderators feel free to merge it if you like BUT I would like to see another options then "save profile" for each aircraft and controller if it is possible. For my configuration this would mean to export 6 files for every single aircraft..... some kind of joke, he :music_whistling:

I had no success in finding Win7 Pro versions in Germany for less than 100 € :noexpression:

It's a matter of policy and the region where you live. In the EU it is forbidden to link a OS to a specific hardware. All versions including OEM's will be usable after a hardware change by a phone call to the MS Support.

Yes, 1 month. After that it is burned. I like Win10 so far but I see some issues which could be the reason for future headache. I'ts simply a good feeling to have a Win7 key in reserve...I

Changed one of my systems to Win10, works fine so far but had some driver issues with TrackIR5 and the migration of Outlook 2003 to mail was a horror. Same company but no compliant export formats :mad:. Spent 140€ today to get a copy of Win10 Pro for my main system for an upgrade after DCSW 1.5. As some other members I have a bad feeling burning my last Win7 key during a "free" upgrade.

Did you used the update function or a fresh install?

:thumbup: So siehts aus. Wer des Englischen mächtig ist... http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=138038 Diese Staffel hält jede Woche ein Fun-Training für Ihre Piloten ab in der DCS User die gegnerischen Verbände simulieren (hauptsächlich CA). Dort sind auch Videos zu finden.

It isn't that bad. I knew what features are in 1.5 from the livestreams but bugfixing was not sexy enough for the most people to ask :) The logbook is driving me mad since nearly two years and one of the testers stated months ago it will be fixed in 2.0. So Sith made my day :thumbup:

One big question is burning under my nails: Will all the bugfixes aimed for 2.0 (logbook, SU-25 laser guided missiles etc.) be part of DCSW 1.5?

Würde ich auch sagen und bitte nicht ein paar wichtige Details unterschlagen... Der wichtigste Punkt dürfte die Performance sein, da dies der Punkt ist über den sich die User seit Jahren am meisten aufregen. Sollte deutlich besser ausfallen, gerade für AMD-Nutzer. Verbesserung der Schatten ist zwar nur optisch ein Schmankerl aber gerade die anhaltenden smoke trails erlauben es SAM-Starts auch visuell zu erfassen und zu lokalisieren. Das Skalierungs-Modell macht weiterhin das visuelle Orten von Luft- und Bodenzielen einfacher. Die KI Verbesserungen erlauben es den Flügelmännern u.a. die Nutzung des Nachbrenners zu erlauben/verbieten, also kein bail out des KI-Wingmen weil ihm beim Formationsflug an WP3 der Saft ausgegangen ist... In der Version 1.2.15.2 von Wags ist Flächenschaden von Bomben (rein physikalisch-nicht visuell) modelliert. Was den Flug als Wingmen mit einem KI Lead angeht kann ich nicht sagen, ist ja geplant wurde heute aber weder dementiert noch bestätigt. Ich versuch es mal als Frage für den nächsten Livestream unterzuschmuggeln :music_whistling:

Good to see you guys in the official 3rd party arena. I'm looking foward to fly the BO-105 in the future. Good luck for you :thumbup:

Also entsprechend des heutigen Livestreams wird der 1.5 Release im September ein DCSW 2.0 minus standalone Server, ATC, Multicrew Cockpit und minus zusätzliche Maps. Ein paar Details fallen sicherlich noch unters Minus aber die Rendering Engine scheint ja wohl der am weitesten modellierte Part zu sein. Eine gemeinsame Exe für die im Stream gezeigten ultraschnellen Ladezeiten soll auch dabei sein. Punkte die er bestätigt hat: - gemeinsame exe - neues GUI - DX11 Engine plus neue Effekte (smoke trails etc.) - Satellitenansicht auf der Karte - verbesserte KI Also ich wäre vorsichtig optimistisch, außer bei der A-10C haben sie bei den Modulen ja meist grob die Termine eingehalten. Will damit sagen, ich glaube nicht das sie die L-39 ohne DX11 Unterstützung auf den Markt schmeißen. :music_whistling:

Bisher hat Wags sich aber nicht auf einen verbindlichen Termin festnageln lassen. Also ich wäre dieses Mal etwas optimistischer.

Yepp, you are right :) Maybe I will be reading both language versions in the future before posting :music_whistling:

Hey guys, bought this sweet plane already. In the russian forum is a statement by Chizh: "Будет DCS 1.5, переходная версия к 2.0. Рендер будет новый, а земля пока старая - Кавказ" stating that the L-39 will come as DCS 1.5 with a part of the new rendering engine. Could it be X-mas in september?

Just a question, is this a normal payload? A big tank inside the cargo store or something like that?

In 4:17 of the recorded stream the smoke of destroyed vehicles is drifting in another direction as the smoke from nearby smokestacks. Q: Will this be adressed in DCSW 2.0?

WTF! After 4 months this video is blocked due to music copyright issues by the Gema? :furious: Have to find another cool F-14 video to survive the waiting time for the Tomcat.

Nice summary. Would count the Warthog and the 21 to be the most realistic planes, even if snoopy will tell us that the A-10 is only about 80% modelled :megalol:. Thats enough for me btw. I also had access to military knowledge during my carreer and believe me, you don't want all of this modelled. 25% of my time as Link8 operator consisted of troubleshooting connection issues with group members. Much fun to play this out during a combat mission :music_whistling:. And thats for a system that is established for years...

You don't have to believe it if you want but as said the developers won't change performance by the wishes of the community, only by facts. You can find a missile mod in the mod subforum but don't expect wonders. If you follow the thread you will find answers to most of your doubts.

Fine, then were are on the same track. But even with my physics background, I'm far away from understanding events like airflow disturbance on a wing by missiles fired from this wing. :cry:

My question was directed at your source of information. It implies that some kind of acceleration (no recoil) is happening when using the HVAR rockets. Thx, I started reading. The video clips still show nothing significant to me. Will continue to read but if you like I have no problems with spoilers telling me that you see no recoil. I never claimed that! From my point of view as a prop pilot and certified biophysicist I would stick with the OP theory.

Sorry, I see nothing from this video. A 70 year old guncam shrinked to 10 seconds of action without external view can't tell the truth. And by the way, the sub attack tips are crap. But my question was directed at Holbeach. I for myself would vote for "negative recoil". -> Nothing against you Yoyo, I'm only beginnig to understand prop and jet aerodynamics in it's details

Thanks guys, that was my main problem with the VR options. If Oculus is able to make me look behind my chair and show me the tail of my future F-14 by LNS instead of breaking lock after 45° like TrackIR I will be a happy customer. :thumbup: Who needs a whole room to track as in Steam VR when flying jets :music_whistling:
