Sure if its alright with you. Though I fly exclusively the Shark nowadays. So whatever it is. It has to be for the Shark :) Thank you so much for your help. Now I got one thing left to figure out: - Get a Russian Betty while still retaining English avionics.

No; if you look closely at the vertical speed indicator. The gauge has that green ribbon that indicates safe descent below 50kph. The blue cockpit does not have that. You can use the Ricardo's Blue Cockpit Mod instead and mate it with the gauges from the Ricardo's Black Cockpit Mod (yes that almost sounded wrong lol)

Thank you for the offer. Blue cockpit https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=97425 Black cockpit https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/602834/ As a recap; I want the gauges from the Black Cockpit integrated into the Blue cockpit. Cheers

I have a friend who's recently got into the Ka-50 and has the same exact stick as you. What we've done is relied on shift states configured to the base buttons. What we did was arrange it by 'cockpit sections' One button controls weapons related stuff on the weapon control panel. One button controls shkval related stuff. One button contols the K-041 panel that includes the laser standby, and auto turn to target modes. Just these three shift states would be enough to get you flying quite efficiently. Unshifted states would fall under view controls (if no track IR). Weapons release and Trimmer.

I really wanted the Devrim blue variant. But I like the look of the gauges on Ricardo's. Easier to see. Wish there was some way I can combine the two... And while I'm at it... a way to get Russian betty but still have the avionics and cockpit in English.

+1 to this 90% of my DCS experience came from multiplayer. I rarely if ever go Single player... Usually just to test out some stuff. With regards to learning aircraft; I've usually have some sort of mentor to teach me the ways. That's how I learned the Ka-50. I barely read any manuals or watched any tutorial videos. With another person teaching me the ropes. With that in mind; I'm quite sure we're from different and inconvenient time zones. But if chance permits it. I can help you with the Ka-50. I see it as my way of giving back to the community. :) Guess it's now my turn to teach eh ?

Face off. I'm impressed by the damage modeling. No two damage incurred are ever alike.

Am I the only one who wants an english cockpit and avionics but Russian bitching betty ?

I only saw this post today.... Thanks Nero for indulging my request :)

I have a question though for pure HDD users. My reasoning is that a decent enough HDD back in the days before SSD's became prolific. Could still load fast. What has changed between then and now that even a top notch current HDD still has slow loading ? This is the problem I've been encountering. I have a top notch HDD but my loading times are noticeably slow; not enough to cause timeouts mind you; but enough to catch attention. Also, a workaround/ solution suggestion is very much appreciated :)

This. Basically; I'd prefer for this to remain there when the shkval is uncaged.

I was going through the manual to create my own cheat sheet in MS Excel. I don't see the function/ guide for the bottom row ?

I'm not referring to bearing data on where the shkval is looking. Just the bearing data where my nose is pointing.. ergo the bearing indicator when shkval is caged.

^ from the earlier posts. he seems to be aiming for integrity check pass. I only did a quick read of the earlier posts plus the user manual. He claims that his research was based on some Ka-52 stuff... Not sure how he got his hands on that. He did also say that information used in this mod are information that are readily available. Integrity checks shouldnt be an issue so far. I'm up for supporting this mod. It gives me an ease of life experience. I'm only in it for the speed indicator being available on the HUD when shkval is on (I'm still hoping for the bearing indicator as well). Anything else is cherry on the top.

I'm liking what I see here. Quick glance: Am I right in saying that there is still an airspeed indicator when the shkval is on ? That has always bothered me; the lack of airspeed indicator. How about a heading indicator ?

Still no joy im afraid. Whether its on or off.. still the same thing. It wont even accept keyboard inputs. the option just becomes greyed out

^yep

I'm having problems with the latest client. I'm unable to set any controls. When I press set and press the button that I want. Nothing happens.

Concur... Also encountered this bug.

Korean peninsula for me... in homage of Jane's F/A-18. Hopefully that comes into development as well.

How's the GUI theme related to the F10 map ? Anyways, I'm using FC3 theme.

What I get is that if I look at the F10 map for long periods, the rest of my flight suffers from extreme FPS loss. Respawning turns it back to normal. I can only afford quick glimpses at the F10 map now.

Good day, With DCS 1.5 and me in the Ka-50, I seem to be blundering more and more into (usually hidden) tank groups. By the time I noticed, there's usually an ATGM on the way or I'm already dead. Back in 1.2; ATGM range means an audio cue from the LWS. In 1.5 there is no audio cue for ATGMs on the LWS. Made a mission with a tank and my Ka-50 in order to test. Unfortunately no matter how much I try to get a track, it seems to be not recording correctly. Instead I have a video clip from one of my streams. http://www.twitch.tv/arkroyale048/v/19853063 As you can see early in the clip; I got launched on by an ATGM (from the Shkval) and there's no cue from the LWS. - Have confirmed that my LWS is turned on (started the mission with the Ka-50 already started) - Have confirmed that I do receive an audio cue for others. Had another Ka-50 in multiplayer lase me and I did get the audio cue. Have discussed this with a fellow Ka-50 player and he says; those ATGMs are supposed to be optically guided anyway and that there shouldn't be any laser ranging. If the ATGMs are indeed SACLOS then I would have to accept this :) If not please log this in :D Thanks and regards

I have made Devrim's mod work for me on 1.5 Wasn't using JGSME though. Good old copy and replace files.

Never encountered this much civilians going about their daily business before.
