I don't know if a tank driver throws some bubble gum wrap it'll probably spoof it.

Except nothing really known about the launch parameters. If only 4% of missiles in the war actually inginted their motors does that mean that only 4% of launches in the sim should actually be successful? What i'm saying we don't know much of anything about the launch parameters of the missiles in that war. And using percentages is an iffy thing to begin with since it doesn't say anything about the amount of missiles fired. If we knew the exact launch parameters of at least one launch that would be a great thing, but we don't. now let me use 3 full stops ...

Can you stop the ethiopean war please, it has no bearing on anything.

I was being sarcastic.

It's realistic though the brilliantly documented Ethiopian war says so.

ED first needs to fix the netcode so that servers don't start falling apart when you move a bunch of units.

So I've noticed an issue in MP in 1.5, and this has been an issue i think since 1.2. When you lock an enemy plane with the radar the enemy plane gets a radar lock warning, you then turn on your EOS and turn your radar off, now you are tracking the enemy plane only on EOS, the tracked plane continues getting a lock warning until you completely disable the lock, then the lock warning stops. After that if you lock him just with EOS he will not get a lock on warning. Can anyone confirm this? It's a bit hard to test since it requires someone to help you.

Or you know do that thing where you go and do that thing, also if you are a student you can get all autodesk stuff for free.

The best way to test this is to get someone with CA to lase/lock your helicopter, in some patch ED said that it should produce a laser warning from hence forth.

Oh here we go again.

And the part where turning off your radar and leaving the EOS on, keeps spiking the target as if you have it on, don't know if that's been fixed

Hey speck Go here \Bazar\Textures\Su-27.zip The textures with _SPC at the end are the specular ones you can edit those.

Everything radar tracks when the plane is near the top of the mountain (even your planes radar), that is to say slightly below the peak if the plane dives further down the mountain the track gets lost.

Yes if only the Ethiopian conflict could be used as actual evidence.

I don't like using the joystick for CA, since CA is mostly my "I'm too lazy too set up the joystick" part of DCS

it's nigh impossible to use on the move, since you have to keep moving the turret. It's way easier to use the old system of rangefinder and shooting at the lead indicator. EDIT: never mind, if you are using the mouse using the alternative cursor mode is pretty much required, hopefully ED can make it work for both modes.

so how does it actually work? Because i can't hit anything when i turn it on.

Because ED stated they'd do it, i guess it's still not implemented.

x-52 standard, 10-15 on all planes, all axies, with 1 on deadzone.

But the AIM120!!!! This is the issue. Someone asks for Russian missile usage tips or generally not aim-120 stuff, sometimes it could be someone asking for sandwich making tips, and then: - YOU SEE THE APG-WHATEVER IS THE GREATEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD AND YOU SHOULD USE IT IN YOUR SANDWICH, and here's a random spreadsheet to show you why it's better than ham.

It is simmilar though it may seem the R-27ET has better flare resistance at the same range, that's because missiles are a bit weird and the faster the go the better countermeasure resistance they have (ingame) so you'll get situations where an R-73 will be spoofed by a flare while an ET wont give a damn about flares and hit the target. I'm supposing it's just that at the speed the code of the game doesn't have time to differentiate whats a plane and whats a flare so it just keeps going. Now i know this looks crazy, but i have tested it several patches ago, sadly the track files are now garbage, although you can easily test this, by putting planes in a 360 around the target you are going to pilot and then just giving them one type of missile.

Be more hoiler than thou please

The seat won't fully the main parachute until it's at a safe altitude.

Anyone that does that doesn't expect a hit, they just want to make you maneuver.
