F15C Suggestion- Adding Strike/Ground attack loadouts
FSKRipper replied to Kev2go's topic in DCS Wishlist
As stated dozens of times, balancing will not happen in DCS because there is no reason for it. The russian planes use AG munitions in real life, the american F-15C not. Theoretical Options are completely senseless as we have seen in another thread regarding the F-14 Tomcat and the Amraam. If you essentially need a western fighter plane which drop bombs wait for the Mirage otherwise the A-10 will do it. -
Die Mirage 2000 von Razbam kann ab sofort im e-Shop vorbestellt werden.Es gibt 20% Rabatt auf den ansonsten recht üppigen Preis von 59,99$. Release der open Beta für Vorbesteller ist Dezember dieses Jahres. Ach ja, ich hab sie schon :music_whistling:

Already pre-purchased :thumbup:

Still thinking that operating single engine CAS aircraft like the F-16 or F-35 over territory hold by religious fanatics is a stupid idea. It don't even need a manpad to get the pilot into trouble. The Warthog is no wonder but to keep some of them in action to fly FAC and coordinate rescue operations would be more constructive then sending them to the boneyard.

Thanks Snoopy, can't comment on the flight tests but ground behaviour seems ok if you confirm it. :thumbup:

I'm not sure what would happen in the real AC but my experience this evening was that after switching on battery, Inverter (stby) and APU I was able to start the left engine without boost pumps. I never got the APU Gen warning and when switching the right engine to idle, it won't spool up. Maybe a bug, maybe the right behaviour. Snoopy or the devs could tell...

Nice idea but I would not expect a 3rd Party developer team to give us a high fidelity ECM aircraft as long as electronic warfare is only covered very superficial in DCS. Same belongs to AWACS in my opinion. There are some tools which give you a nice ATC view of DCS. No need to condemn a pilot to move you around for 6 hours in circles when you could simulate AWACS with Teamspeak. For bombers, yes a nice idea but not before ED finished the multicrew Feature.

Das Problem existiert schon lange in der Community, regelmäßig gehen Shitstorms über ED und die kleinen Entwickler nieder, deswegen kommt es dann eben zu der "no comment" Politik. Hier mal die Ankündigung von VEAO http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2442226&postcount=1204 Ist sehr traurig aber leider lassen sich die Gelegenheitsspieler und die Hardcore Enthusiasten (oftmals ehemalige oder aktive Mechaniker des Modells) selten unter einen Hut bringen (siehe MiG-21). Ist die Kritik gerechtfertig? Teilweise ja. Muss man deswegen die Leute flamen die in ihrer Freizeit eine gute Simulation noch besser machen wollen? No way! (By VEAO ging es um 2 gerenderte Screens eines WIP Eurofighters bei dem "Experten" sofort Unstimmigkeiten in den Abmessungen und Konturen ausgemacht haben und übermässig agressiv die Kompetenz der Entwickler anzweifelten)

I know it's hard to get started with such things but you two missed a very emotional thread regarding the flight model in late 2014 were most people demanded to remove the artificial speed limit of the MiG-21. This was done, the result is flameout/engine damage to overspeeding which is realistic behaviour. I must admit that I don't know if something was changed (or broke) during the last patches but it has passed some time since I saw a MiG-21 changelog...

Wheel Stand Pro, anyone with experience?
FSKRipper replied to CallsignFrosty's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Yes the system is great, you can simply change the tubes and have multiple setups. The small plate came also with an extra tube. I cut it by 12cm and installed an extension for the Warthog stick. The only thing left for total immersion is the release of the Rift :music_whistling: -

FSKRipper replied to CallsignFrosty's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
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:

Does DCS play well with Windows 10?

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

FSKRipper replied to Teeter's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
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. -
Does DCS play well with Windows 10?

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 -
Does DCS play well with Windows 10?
FSKRipper replied to Teeter's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
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. -

Feedback and General Questions for Video Updates
FSKRipper replied to Groove's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
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: -
Feedback and General Questions for Video Updates
FSKRipper replied to Groove's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
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:
