I haven't seen that post, and ER tracking has seemed to work just fine to me. I've done a lot of 1v1 against Russian AI and of about 4-5 dozen times, I think the ER tracked my chaff only a handful of times. I always have the opposite problem of never being able to break it's lock. Edit: This is the only thing I could find about chaff rejection from wags. http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1825291&postcount=5 And this is the only thing I could find about him mentioning the R-27ER. http://forums.eagle.ru/search.php?searchid=5871860

Just to clarify, it was ALL missiles that were affected.

Just add as a non-steam game. Only difference is that it says "Non Steam Game" when your friends look at you playing it. Why go through all that if you're not going to use steam's high speed servers?

Is there a distinct advantage to going through all that or can we just add it as a non-steam game like so:

Be patient. ED knows about the FPS problems and they are working hard on EDGE to get it released before the end of the year. DCS is still in it's growing pains.

Ah okay. Thanks for the prompt response. As for FC3, I'm sure somebody will get it figured out soon lol.

I haven't had a chance to play with this yet, but I was able to play all the sounds in VLC and I happened to notice some of the fighters F-15, Su-27, Su-30, and Su-33 are the ones that I can remember off the top of my head that don't play any sound. Is this intentional or just something on my end? Otherwise this looks like a really awesome mod. Hoping for something in FC3 soon. :D

He didn't need to buy it again to DCS World compatibility. Should have just used his steam cd key. And to transfer from one account to another, I think this is what you're looking for. Never tried it myself but I've seen others ask similar questions. http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/myserials.php

Call of Duty: World at War does not work. I tried and steam will not let me use the key on the box to register it. So not every game will work.

So we get open beta testing. That could be kind of tricky for us that want to play online. Maybe some servers have it and some don't. Probably will need two installations of DCS World. But this is good news for us too. Let the community file bug reports and have fewer on the official release.

Squad did it a different way. Once you requested a transfer from a standalone to steam, they deleted the game from your store page and gave it to you in steam. You essentially traded to get this to work. Edit: Also I prefer it outside of steam. I tried adding DCS World as a non steam game before and my frame rates dropped by about 10. I don't see the reason to add it back just so my steam friends can see me playing it at that cost.

Hi, here are a couple links to get started. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=55003 http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=32019

I was watching dogfights and in one episode with an Israeli guy, they said the average pilot could see enemy fighters 8-9 miles out. The guy that was interviewed claimed to see up to 24 miles. So I would think that if we could somehow get about 8 miles, then it should be okay.

That almost looks like it could be under exposed shadow from the smoke. With the camera pointed at the sky it would tend to have a high shutter speed, even with the clouds. Seeing this makes me tend to think it still should be white.

Have you tried doing a repair?

I don't believe the lasers used are in the visible spectrum, unlike the ones you buy at the store.

Suddenly you have every country launching nukes back at you in retaliation for authorization to use a nuke. :p

Could have sworn it does. I'll check again after I finish downloading today's update. Update: Checked it and you're right. Doesn't appear to do anything. Thought it used to but it's been a while since I used that switch.

Is this is the switch you're looking for? If I remember right it does dim the navigation lights but not by a lot.

Aww man. I can do alright in the A-10C because I can see the boom but the F-15 is a different story. I suck at reading those indexer lights underneath the tanker. But I'll have fun crashing into it all over again lol.

Right. LSS seems like the fastest way to designate high value targets to me and was under the impression that it's most commonly used if laser guided weapons will be used.

As I understood it, TISL/LSS are used by the JTAC to get the aircraft on target. And it was asked in the OP. And thanks for the buddy lasing clear up. Read somewhere on these forums that it doesn't work from the A-10A to A-10C.

AFAIK the A-10A can't use buddy lasing at all. Meaning even if the A-10A dropped a GBU-12 near where the A-10C is lasing it won't go active. Would like some clarification on that though since it's hard for me to test since I don't know anybody that plays DCS.

ED has planned to release all the aircraft included in FC3 as individual modules so you will be able to purchase those soon. Wags has said that part of the reason for this is to make it easier to release on steam since FC3 requires a previous version of lockon to be installed first due to licensing agreements with Ubisoft. They will be identical to the ones in FC3 so if you already own it there will be no reason to buy the separate modules.

The speed you see in the ME is ground speed and I think there is a box somewhere to change the speed if you click on the aircraft, but I'm not sure and can't really check right now. For staying connected, I pick a spot on the canopy and keep a part of the tanker in that spot at all times. Trying to chase the boom will cause you to overreact and disconnect or worse, crash. Also, if you do disconnect all you need to do is push the nose wheel steering button to reset instead of opening and closing the fuel door.
