  1. There are/were 3D renders of a DCS Apache cockpit floating about back before the A-10C was released if I remember right. Not sure why the wheels fell off.
  2. True. I wouldn't hesitate in upgrading an FC level Mig-17 or '21 F-13 to full DCS fidelity but how many others would? I'm looking forward to flying the MAC L-39 but I'm not sure I'd make the leap to the DCS version.
  3. ED should develop a Vietnam War package with terrain, six FC fidelity aircraft, and period units. Sell whole thing for $99. That gets the ball rolling. Then depending on interest they could upgrade some or all the aircraft to DCS level. Same for a 50's Korean War scenario.
  4. A lot of aircraft have switches with three positions; here's the Sabre... Having all these positions mappable is great but given the reality of a finite amount of controller real estate there should also be a 'rotary' command so you can cycle through the functions with just one button. This is from the P-51... Makes life so much easier.
  5. Mig Alley did this back in the day.
  6. Me neither...don't know how he's seeing these results.
  7. I think most textures in DCS need reworking since 2.5. Hopefully the older modules will catch up with the newer ones.
  8. I would ask if they could look at the tires or the suspension. Taking off and the 21 is bouncing left and right as if driving over cross-country or the tires are made of concrete. It's very rare to take off without significant bank to the left or right.
  9. You were doing OK till you lost sight at around 5mins. I'd dump the sidewinders though - they're just dead-weight in a fight like that.
  10. I would love some early rickety helicopters - Bell 47, Sikorsky H-5, Mi-2 etc
  11. The rudder seems unaffected by speed https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=198915&highlight=rudder Hope this gets looked at.
  12. Even when you remove the hardpoints the navigation lights remain....
  13. Instead of the 'is there an eclipse?' one we have.
  14. Happens with 'flat' shadows and with all aircraft.
  15. Same here. One minute they'll save OK but the next time you load a mission they're just being ignored. I edit my views in the snapviews.lua and it used to work 100% but lately it's a crapshoot as to whether the game chooses to read or ignore them. Very frustrating.
  16. This chap might be having the same trouble.... https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3632990#post3632990
  17. Yes, for some reason the new GFX engine is treating red things as a bump map or something....
  18. This thread should give you a head start... https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=211227
  19. Central mode should require the cyclic go back to neutral before accepting new input. But in the Ka-50 the instant you hit the trim button the helicopter starts piling on whatever input is currently receiving. To test - ensure 'Central' mode is enabled in Ka-50 special options, start from ground or hover, pitch forward to increase speed, hit trim button at desired attitude - the aircraft immediately pitches even further forward. In comparison the Mi-8's trim is behaving as advertised. The Ka-50's 'central' trimmer mode seems to be an inadvertent copy of its 'default' option.
  20. +100
  21. The less MFDs the better.
  22. The ADF frequency dial just a bit faster turning.
  23. Seems to have worked, thanks!
  24. nVidia latest drivers, happens with water set to high or medium.
  25. The real Ka-50 HUD is nowhere near as slick as ours.... I realize this is an 80's video of a HUD rather than a direct feed but you can see the brightness is constantly variable and it seems to only update at something like 5 frames per second. Would ED consider re-working the HUD to be more realistically lo-fi? Would people want it?
