Yes I'm aware of the ability to change things in the ME but that doesn't work playing on multiplayer servers.

I love flying russian aircraft and playing red team on multiplayer but I don't intend to learn russian so the constant radio traffic from awacs, etc. in russian can be pretty irritating. There should be an option to override the faction's native language and replace it with a language of the user's choosing.

Sling loading weight Is there a point to sling load heavy crates vs light? Also is there a way to go even heavier? The ~1400kg crates are a bit light for the mi-8:)

Seriously. After the tremendous wait for 2.5 I would have thought that it would at least have included compatible resources.

From the wikipedia it seems like a pretty easy thing to make a rough model of.

I own most of the modules. If I just copy my control bindings from 1.2 to the 1.5 beta will everything work ok? The thought of redoing all my controls is preventing me from playing.

I joined in a Su-27 on a multiplayer server. I noticed that the movement of the image in the mirrors wasn't right. E.g. moving my head forward made the mirror image tilt down as if I had moved upward. I then quit and started an "instant action" in the mig-21. For the entire mission my mirror showed a frozen view of the pilot in the su27. see attached image.`

Get online and try a few servers to see which missions you like. I personally like s77th server most of the time.

I was testing the BetAB-shp on the su-25 and found that while the craters were devastating to most airframes the F-15 could roll right over them without issue. Has anyone else experienced this?

The idea of AUTO is nice but I think it's a little conservative. I can consistently hit targets from a hover at 9km without needing to adjust my aim or anything.

This can be done relatively easily via scripting.

Doesn't appear to work in MP :(

I'm aware of that. I'm just saying that I think it makes sense that the altitude Channel might stay on even in fd mode.

I have no idea whether or not this is realistic, but if I was designing the autopilot system this is exactly how I would make it work.

S77th is always recruiting people who enjoy flying with us. Hop on the server and our TS server sometime.

If anyone is interested I have partially rewritten this script with the following changes: --uses Mist message system and does not display reciprocal bearing. --There is also now a chance that enemy contacts will not be identified by type --Targets that are slow or low are now unlikely to be detected. --Script now only operates while a friendly awacs is airborne or EWR is active. --LOS is required between awacs and target rather than player and target. The script can be found here: https://github.com/nanthony21/DCS-Scripts It's the one called Awacs v1.9

I actually just wrote a script using mist that does exactly what it sounds like what you're trying to do. I haven't noticed any stutters, you can give it a try if you want. All you have to do is put "_rspwn_" somewhere in group name for the groups that you want to respawn. it works for planes, helos, and ground units. GrpRespawn.lua

In one of my missions that has a lot of triggers I keep getting this error in the log about 10 times per second: ERROR Trigger: can't execute trigger, err:"[string "?"]:1: attempt to call field '?' (a string value)" Why doesn't it give any more info? Is there any way that I can figure out what trigger is causing this?

Any news will be in the official update section. Unfortunately no news news since February, but supposedly DCS 2 is somewhat close.

Does anyone know in more detail what this line is talking about in the recent changelog?: Su-27. The nozzle automatics is corrected.

As far as I can tell TWS provides no information that scan doesn't.

Here it is. I also changed line 722 so that setting the survival percentages to 0 will actually work. Before there was a slight chance that ground crews would still be spawned. Medevac_SAR_modified.lua

should I upload it here or would it be better to do it over github?

One thing that I forgot to mention is that Datalink in the su-27 continues to work even though awacs won't respond over the radio.

Easily fixable bug report: Addmenuitems function only runs once at the beginning of the mission. By adding two arguments to the function E.G.: (arg,time) and changing the line that says 'return 5' to 'return time+5' this can be fixed.
