  1. Ex Regular army, now reservist (infantry) and employed full time (as a civilian) as a wargaming simulation interactor/analyst for the Department of National Defence, Land forces operational research team, centre for operational research and analysis.
  2. The last we heard was that they're working on the installer. If it were bugs in the module, that's to be expected, it's a beta. But bugs in the installer - that's a show stopper.
  3. If you took an area the size of what's modeled currently modeled in the DCS black sea theatre (not including the sea and the null patches on the west and northeast sides of the map) and applied it to other regions, this is what you come up with: (I'm partial to the idea of having an israel/lebanon/sinai/east egypt map. That would provide a widely varied terrain with deserts, mountains, urban, and greenspace - with significant ocean area for carrier/naval ops).
  4. I hope so. I haven't slept since Friday night. The little emoticons are starting to talk to me. (LOL)
  5. Ok, this is how you could do it. It would take two of you to accomplish this: You want a lazer return shining on the inside bottom of the chimney, but you can't laze it yourself from a launchable angle. It has to be done from straight above the chimney, right? So, you get your buddy to hover straight overhead of the chimney, lase the bottom of the inside of the chimney, then you lase the top of the chimney (using same laser code as buddy) from a horizontal angle, and launch. Wait for the missile to climb, then when its over the target and going vertical (and buddy's laser becomes visible to the missile), you turn off your laser, and let it go after buddy's. Too bad that chimney isn't actually hollow. This would be fun to try.
  6. Yeah, it seems to have a blueish hue to it as well. Yeah, i think there's half a dozen US liveries, and then liveries for pretty much every other country. I think they appeared with 1.2.3, but i'm not 100% sure.
  7. It's already in there.
  8. Tutorial, free flight, then missions, but i don't expect to be getting to the missions too soon (taking a few breaks to mow down insurgents with the door guns and flex miniguns of course).
  9. EB-1, you're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't.
  10. Hahaha!!
  11. The models and skins are already present in DCSW.
  12. Funny, every time i ever got a safety brief from helo crews before taking part in airmobile ops, it always stood out in my mind that every one of them referred to the helo as "the airplane".
  13. +1
  14. Ah, cool. Thanks.
  15. To which screeshot are you referring?
  16. 6 months since we've heard anything about nevada.
  17. Ok so after posting my last comment, DCS:W multiplayer spontaneously started working. I played for a while, then the mission restarted, i got stuck in the mission loading screen, quit DCS:W to rejoin, then started getting the connecting to master CTD again. It seems this is just random, probably something wrong with the master server, not the clients, as i'm randomly successfully connecting or getting CTD regardless of whether i'm making changes.
  18. ...tried that, as well as running both TrackIR and DCS:W in admin mode, still crashing.
  19. I'm having the same problem. I'm reading in similar threads to delet the config file under savedgame/DCS, but i'm reluctant to try it for fear of losing my controls assignments. For what it's worth, i attempted to log in using an incorrect username and got an invalid username/password return from the master, but using correct login info causes CTD.
  20. I was having the exact same problem until just now. It started today. I open multiplayer, then after seeing the "logging in to master" message box, i get CTD. And just now it worked once, i was able to log in with no problem. So i logged off to try it again to see if it was just a fluke, and now i'm getting an invalid master login/password message - using the saved login/password that just worked a few moments ago. Shall we guess there's something going on with the master server today? I found a thread with what appeared to be a similar problem: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=90859 ...but i'm not going to suggest trying the solution provided as it's very unclear and seems speculative.
