+1 They should hide RAZBAM sub-forums until they are ready to release something. No need for such a dormant forum section that only gives false hopes to newcomers.

Does this mod still work with the current version? I'm planning on getting FC3 so that I can at least fly the Hornet as a mod...

Only Belsimtek & VEAO are releasing modules or at least giving out regular updates. With the recent Mig-21 fiasco, I wouldn't hold my breath for other 3rd parties that are already being strangely quiet.

I'm having a strange bug with Su-30 mod in latest patches. When making it's avionics be that of the Su-25T and trying to do SEAD with it I get the following bug. While using the ELINT pod, the SAM radar icon on HUD is flashing like crazy and it is impossilbe to get a lock on the radar site. Does anybody get the same problem?

They specifically said backers and not 3rd party developers. Why should only they have the ability to make new maps?

So there is a chance it won't work with it? What happens if it doesn't work? Well, it probably will work, it must work, otherwise non Nevada buyers will be without a map to play on. Let's just hope we get the same or better FPS in Georgia with it. Thanks for the answer.

Yeah. Are we even getting it at all?

Has there been any word on how EDGE will effect the Georgia map, performance wise?

Nice! Is this Coretex cockpit? Or is it a private mod?

I said F-18E. You have pics and vids about it. Also I said maybe. Let's be positive. :)

You're right. The "modern" combat simulator isn't working for either party at the moment. If not nothing else, at least my wallet is happy about all these older/trainer A/C and helis.:lol:

I don't remember mentioning anything DCS helicopter capabilites in my post. :) But the fact is that there are more viable DCS helicopters than planes in DCS World at the moment. And I also stated that it will change in future months. PS: I don't wanna make this jet fans vs heli fans. It's not about that.

At this point many wouldn't mind if it's FC3 fidelity. ( although with the clickable cockpit it's arguably gonna be at least a few steps above it) Or any new FC level modern jet that would fit into current DCS World enviroment. Anything that would change the impression The last new plane to be released was P-51 in 2012, and that one doesn't really fit in much, at least not until DCS WW2 comes out. Flaming Cliffs 3 is just a repeat of previous Flaming Cliffs incarnations that allows it to function in DCS World enviroment and with additional graphical make-up. It needed to be done and it also allows more flexibility and accessibility. But apart from that, it's same planes, same avionics. Nothing ground breaking for those who have been playing since Lock On. DCS Hawk is looking very nice and looks on par with A-10C, but it's not a plane that you take into any serious form of combat and come back alive or do much of an impact on the battle. It's gonna be great for aerobatic teams or squads that will want to train rookies with an appropriate plane. But not for people who prefer combat. Mig-21bis is also looking great and will work better for people who want combat airplanes, although it might be a bit outdated compared to the threats it's gonna be facing but that problem might go away if more comparable planes and equipment are released in the future. ( fingers crossed that F-100D will follow soon) Other than these two, what else is new for jet fans in DCS? New flight models for two jets that have been around since 2003? F-18C is far, far away according to Wags and Super Bug developers aren't really keen on giving out information. ( can't really blame them) That's it. IRIS is pretty much gone, Kinney is gone, Mil-Sim gone, RAZBAM is being awfully quiet... So let's be honest, the near future is bleak for fans of Modern Air Combat and Rikus is right in way. Currently this is Helicopter World, but it will change for the better this year.

ED is working on F/A-18C, however it is unlikely that we will see it this year.

March will bring us the first supersonic DCS fighter. Not a fancy one, but a jet fighter nonetheless. And later this year we'll maybe get F-18E so the future is bright.

There is (was?) a F-14A WIP by Iris. Not sure what's going on with it now.

Just don't let it be Flaming Cliffs 4. :P Also, new FC planes this year, are better than DCS F-18 in 2015/16. :D

In my opinion, it's quite safe to count them out. Mil-Sim also didn't post any updates and look what happend to them. I really hope I'm wrong.

That's a very nice idea!

DCS A-10C. Thanks for doing this. :) Happy holidays everyone.

If you're into high fidelity planes wait for Mig-21. It's going to be the first DCS level fighter. :) FC3 could be a good purchase if you don't own FC1 or FC2. Otherwise just skip it since you don't get any new planes.

Same here. JTAC won't respond at all.

It's shaping up nicely. Keep up the good work. :)

Well, with FC3 and stand alone A-10 and Su-25 we've already gone backwards. Why not take it a step further and make a FC multirole? And if I recall correctly, Wags stated in one of the weekly updates that there will be more FC level planes.

No, the problems appeared way before I started using VPN, about a year ago, to bypass the problem with hosting DCS, but LAN option has since been removed. I didn't know about ping plotter route, will try it now. Thanks for the suggestion.
