I guess that's an ED problem, like all the other lighting issues. For example the anti collision light being visible inside the cockpit.

Hello, everytime I join a MP server and spawn in a F-14 I get crashed back to the desktop. This happens only in MP. SP there is no issue at all. I checked the log file and it seems it´s a DX11backend error. There´s this line in the log-file: '2019-03-17 18:56:49.615 ALERT DX11BACKEND: Error: Can't find precompiled shader for effect model/self_illum_material.fx:BLEND_MODE=3;DIFFUSE_UV=tc0;DIRECTX11=true;NORMAL_SIZE=3;TEXCOORD0_SIZE=2;USE_DCS_DEFERRED=1;. Recompilation process will take some time, please wait (this situation should not occur on end user PC, if there is no manual shader editing)' And then there´s the error '2019-03-17 18:59:21.746 ERROR DX11BACKEND: Failed to create shader resource view for /textures/hb_f14_cpt_canopy_f_r_nrm.dds. Reason: Not enough memory resources are available to complete this operation.' Is this something I can fix by updating or changing some settings? Or is this something ED/Heatblur got to fix? Any help is much appreciated. Thx. Edit: Forgot the PC specs Intel i7-8700 @ 3.2 GHz 16 GB DDR4 RAM Geforce GTX 1060 6GB dcs.txt

NWS button is by default 'N'. It's a toggle switch so only press it once and you should see the 'NWS engaged' light on the left side of the HUD. Afaik it doesn't work when the launch bar is extended

Same here! Only in MP I get crashed back to the desktop before the textures finish loading. No error message or anything. In SP I can play fine and also flew the F-14 already. All other planes work fine in MP, only the F-14 crashes :/

Well, since the comments were about BS3 and not about DCS:Alligator I would assume that it'll be another Ka-50 variant. :P

Registriert! Sehr cool!

Thanks!:thumbup: I tried that workaround and it works. But I´m still wondering if it´s supposed to be this way or if I should mention it in the bugs section:music_whistling:

Anybody else experiencing problems after re-loading AGM-65F? I did a successful attack with 4 Mavericks, RTB, rearm, take off and en route to the targets the mavericks wouldn't warm up. Tried everything but no joy. Checked the Bit mode on the other DDI and it said "weapon degradation". So I ran the tests but they seemed to never finish. In the end I had to spawn on a new plane to use the Mavs again... Any recommendations or hints how to get them working after rearming? Much appreciated!

A little more explanation what you're doing and what the autopilot does would be helpful...

The plane got a name and it's Su-57. The prototype was designated T-50 and PAK-FA is the program designation. Sorry, but it's really annoying that people keep calling the plane by the program designation. You won't call the F-22 ATF, wouldn't you?:P

How about the other F-18C operators in the world that don't operate from carriers? Does anybody know if they modified the C variant to being able to use ILS?

That ground physics "improvement" detailed discussed in another thread. The wheels have lost grip on the ground and it still doesn't matter if you locked or unlocked the tailwheel, you could spin her around like there's no tomorrow.

Since a few weeks there's another K4 on the market with mechanical gear indicators and no Flettners. And, most importantly with no drifting issues. I desperately hope that the DCS K4 gets more love than just some cockpit polish.

Why shouldn't they have had Flettner tabs? They're even in the original manual described.

Exactly! I mean that thing isn´t even correctly modeled. In the manual they show it with the correct Flettner tabs on the ailerons - nothing on the ingame model. No mechanical gear indicators on the wings either. Hell, even that pay-to-win-arcade-game from Gaijin has the exterior model of the K4 correctly modelled. I guess we can expect at least the same grade of detail from DCS...:music_whistling:

Freezes hatte ich auch. Bei mir war's die Bf 109 . Mir hatte es geholfen die Treiber zu aktualisieren. Was mir bis heute unverständlich bleibt ist die Tatsache dass es bei mir der Soundtreiber war der zu den Freezes geführt hat...

Yeah, I think that's something that should be tweaked. Like the fact that when you want to jettison weapons (e.g. empty rocket pods) the first thing that gets dropped is your belly fuel tank, which you should have used to get home :cry:

Thx for the link. Pretty cool stuff :)

In the manual p.49 (PDF p.55) is the TWS2 mode described which enables you to attack 2 targets simultaneously with R-77. Did somebody try it out already?

Nope, same level as Su-27 and the other FC3 planes. Just some more functions and professional flight model (PFM)

I think it´s not about a problem with take off it´s about the ground behaviour of the 109. Same effect here, also the tailwheel when locked still handles like it´s not locked.

Right, at least not the version we fly in DCS.

+1 for the rain. Speaking of weather: On PG map some desert like temperatures would be nice (20° in Dubai seems little cold :) )

Is the radar antenna reset when you put it off and on again?

Map is finished and Ciribob out of the country, I guess we need to be patient.
