Perfect, thank you!

How would I input these coordinates into the Mirage's INS? They are from a multiplayer map for 2.0: 11 S NA 91257 05305 11 S NA 86136 13835 These are supposed to be somewhere in Parump, Nevada, but they look nothing like the lat/lon coordinates I see on the F-10 map. Thanks.

Before the RWR update, the Aim-120 showed up as a separate symbol on the RWR, and only when it went pitbull. That is what Razbam should find out from ED on its own. It seems logical that if it works correctly in one module, then it should be possible to make it work in another.

You don't need to explain the difference between STT and TWS, please. In these cases I've already decreased the azimuth and limited to a 2 bar or 1 bar elevation. As soon as the target is dropped, the radar immediately picks it back up again (after I have to move the tdc and change the elevation back to where it was), so the target did not disappear from the radar's search pattern. The target can be flying straight and level, inside 30nm, and TWS drops them within a predictable interval of time, every time. It's an unannounced change in behavior with one of the recent patches. If it is an intended change I will gladly listen and adjust.

Oxymoron is not a personal attack. It is a noun for a term or phrase that contains a contradiction, e.g. "a deafening a silence." Your preference for Steam and dislike of DRM is not an oxymoron, technically, but it does seem like a double standard.;)

Can you wait until they fix ffb in the 109K-4?:joystick:

I've never missed it.

The recent ctd bug is a pain, but the module itself is excellent and among the very best in DCS.

Yes, TWS drops a bugged target very easily.

Known bug. You'll have to turn off your radar until 2.0 is patched, or fly 1.5.

I've seen good people from other sims come to DCS and get negative rep quickly... all because they dared to argue with a knucklehead who somehow had a lot of rep power, and there are a few of those on the forum. (No one in this thread!):smilewink:

To play devil's advocate, the F-15 will also be easier to hit because it is much bigger. ;) I can see the reason for the complaint, but you'd need some kind of controlled experiment to be sure that the Mirage 2000C is unfairly tank-like.

One month later FFB stickshake is still not functional. We've had two 1.5 updates since the reply to the support ticket: :cry:

Same bug with the latest version of 1.5.x against the AI F-4. I'm guessing this bug was introduced when the R-60M was made to be all-aspect?

No mods. Logs.zip

It adds Fox-1 warnings to the RWR. The 2000D had the D2M, not the 2000C.

:worthy: This changes everything!

I set up 2 Mig-29A last night. Their loadout was 1 R-27R, 1 R-27T, and 4 R-60M. I flew single ship. Once I was shot down by an R-27T (caught me with my pants down), and another time I took an R-60M to the face. I was very surprised by the latter because when I fly the Mig-21 the R-60M is rear-aspect only. The R-27R is terrible. Even though the Mig-29A can launch much sooner than the Mirage with the 530D, the R-27R is not a serious threat provided you chaff and don't fly in a straight line.

Isn't that intended for IR Sam launches? Would it warn you of an R-27T fired from the horizon? I've also heard that the Mirage 2000D had D²M, but the 2000C did not, because the latter was not expected to be flying at low altitudes where IR Sams are a danger.

Thank you for clearing that up. It is more as I expected. So why did suggest that a Dassault license would be required for a 2000-5?

Very informative discussion. I had no idea ED received a cease-and-desist over proposed modules!

Eagle Dynamics sought a license from Dassault to include the Mirage 2000-5 and its MICA missiles in the game as an AI aircraft? Or the law is different for AI versus player flown aircraft? Is a lawsuit a real possibility (I doubt it). I'm a little confused about where this is going.:huh:

2 missiles are preferable to 4? What sophistry. The real issue is that the choice was made to model the domestic variant, and there is no going back. There should a be a sticky for the topic in the F-5 forum: Q: Why can't I carry 4 sidewinders? A: The F-5E3 was only wired to carry 2. Q: Can you update the F-5 to carry 4 sidewinders? A: At this point, no, it would be too difficult/too time consuming. Q: Won't you change your minds? A: Maybe, someday, we'll see. Q: Will you change your minds soon? A: No. Q: Really? A: Really. :chair:

Think I figured it out. The bug happens only against the F-5. Against other fighters the R-60M works as it should. I also tried the R-60M against the F-5 with the Mig-29, and it worked, too. So the bug is only with the Mig-21 + R-60M against the F-5.

Yes sharpe, I agree with you. I just don't agree that smart scaling looks anything like the DCS impostors. ;)
