  1. In the meantime, there are many ways to introduce some balance for fun. We don't have to have limitless Amraams on every server, but that is how it is done mostly. Or you can offer numerical advantage to red, or better air defenses, etc. All of the multiplayer servers with "campaings" featuring blue vs blue make me cringe.
  2. Not for checking to see if your port is open. I don't know the specifics of your router, but check the WAN settings. Years ago I had a netgear router that had to have a setting "respond to ping" checked in order to host. More likely it's an issue with your ISP. I used to be able to port forward just fine until my ISP decided to "improve" its service. You'll have to spend hours on the phone to find out. Just make sure they don't charge you for a visit to investigate your cable.
  3. What? DCS performs better than it ever has right now. How much do you think they have to spend to built a Hornet or F-16 compared to what they earn on it? If you want to see more development for core features, then encourage your friends to fly DCS. Other game genres bring in hundreds of millions in gross revenue, but you can be pretty certain ED grosses a fraction of that because high fidelity simulation isn't "fun" for most kids these days.
  4. The planeset is a de facto mismatch at the moment, with a big advantage for the Luftwaffe. The BF 109 is one of my favorite fighters, but I call 'em as I see 'em. Good choice on the P-51.
  5. That is enough, isn't it? You don't have to donate money. Just buy what you like, and buy some modules for friends if they're on the fence if you really want to support the sim.
  6. +1 I would like to see the results.
  7. Hi server admins, Not every aircraft has two UHF radios. Show a little love for the longer wavelengths, pretty please? For example, if AI AWACS is UHF, set some other useful channel to be VHF so we can tune both at the same time. Thank you for your consideration.:thumbup:
  8. You are misusing that informal fallacy: The parenthetical remark is not to be ignored. I will give weight to the opinion of someone with thousands of hours in the real thing. That is not authority bias, that is sound judgement. No one ever said the DCS F-16 is perfect, after all. Just don't lose sight of the point that complaints about the F-16 vs F-18 rate fight and gloc onset are backed up by a good source. Cheers!
  9. What I've been told by a military pilot with over 5000 hours in the Viper about the DCS F-16: Yes, the Hornet is overperforming in rate fights. His opinion was that the F-16 FM is the best he's seen on the PC (better than BMS, too). Yes, the blackout onset is too quick. Fwiw...
  10. A little bird told me that they spend 5 million USD/year on a simulator at Edwards AFB, and none of the pilots want to use it.
  11. My bad, I get your point now.
  12. You need to purchase and fly the Mig-21 to see for yourself how outlandish this sounds. If you're ever low and slow against a Mig-21, just go vertical before you overshoot. He'll never be able to follow.

    FFB

    Tested again yesterday. FFB works great with the other WW2 modules but not the P-47. The weird thing is that the stick repositions with trim but there is no stall behavior. Am I doing something wrong?
  14. I saw this map in the list of multiplayer maps yesterday. Someone was testing it out!
  15. The funny thing is that you already knew it wouldn't work for multiplayer when you posted that reply. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=276597 This is a fix that would need to come from Razbam.
  16. Pointless bickering aside, I am yet to see any sim do a convincing representation of the mk 108. If it takes more than 2 hits to kill a fighter it is wrong, and 1 should be sufficient for a small fighter like the Spitfire.

    P38L

    No need for medium bombers in DCS WWII.
  18. 20 years of development time to make half of those aircraft flyable. Forget the 1944 planeset we already have.
  19. Wow. So that is how it's going to be now?:disgust:
  20. I am also not purchasing this map any time soon. It is a slap in the face to the Normandy map. I don't mind purchasing aircraft modules, but all of these map/asset DLC just split the community. The list of things you need to buy to fly your warbird in multiplayer just gets longer and longer. I own pretty much everything for WW2 in DCS but this is getting out of hand.
  21. Normandy map needs a subforum here.
  22. Don't stalk me, please. My real name is in there! :book:
  23. Thanks, that's what I figured.
  24. I was able to make this work for the player aircraft following the excellent instructions below: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3575076 However, what if I want to set different actions for different clients? "Perform clickable action" seems like it would apply to any client aircraft in the game, without any way to distinguish.
