The LST Mk2 cannot be sunk with torpedoes because it has too little draft. In reality its draft has been only 1.2+m. In DCS World all torpedoes are diving below that… But in reality e.g. a submarine could sometimes how deep a torpedo was diving in the sea. Therefor the commander of the submarine could have recognized this type of ship and command the crew to change the torpedo settings. I assume…

Thanks, but I have already tried everything. Updated all, repaired DCS, removed nearly all units in the mission: It still crashes within 10 minutes.

I have made a very simple mission with appr. 50 units placed on one island. Most of them are soldiers. But if I play this mission I have a 50 % chance of facing a sudden crash to desktop (CTD). I usually don‘t have such problems with DCS World. And no dialog appears for sending informations as a report to Eagle Dynamics! Am I the only one who is getting so many crashes to desktop with this map?

It is a big pity why they are not supporting something like placing such units with a manual alt or even better, a choosable alt depending on the floors of the buidling. This should be added into the software. It would improve the game play.

I would like to place infantry like soldiers inside of buildings with open windows that they can fire from the ground floor or the first, second…. I also tried that by changing the alt, but I can‘t change the alt of infantry units.

Is there a reason why I can’t make Iskander-M being shot from a SRB but I don‘t have any problems to shot Iskander-K from the GLCM? Iskander-K: OK Iskander-M: Not OK Seems for me that missiles which are extremely fast can‘t be used…. I have found the reason by myself: I couldn‘t see the green line which shows me the minimum distance…. So the distance was still to near for firing the Iskander-M.

It would be very nice if the two little Nothern Sea islands of Helgoland would also be added. On one of them (called „Dünen“) has a little airfield which has been a military airport in world war II. And Helgoland has been a submarine port in world war II as well as a military base. For Flightsimulator 2020 there are several different sceneries available for these two islands which are quite good.

At this airfield / airbase there has been the „Heeresflieger Regiment 6“ named "Hungriger Wolf" near Itzehoe in Northern Germany. It location belongs to phase 2. There have been PAH (BO-105), VBH (BO-105) and LTH (Huey). Miltech-5 is working at BO 105 variants for DCS for many years and the Huey already exists in DCS.

Thank you very much for the help. Problem solved. I never used this icon before. Besides: The Mig-21 also won‘t be offered by activating the Historic Filter, no matter which side.

Why it is not possible to choose an American flyable aircraft for the Russian side in the Mission Editor for this map? On other maps it is not a problem e.g. choosing an AH-64D for the Russian side.

Such a „solution“ is the same as closing a police station inside a city district…..

In the meantime there are many different files inside DCS which are belonging to F-15E, F-14, F-4 and it is NOT a solution for me to exclude the DCS installation directory in the antivirus settings. 30 of 70 different virus scanners at virustotal.com and the windows defender identifies these files as contaminated/dangerous. I can‘ believe that these alarms are false-positive. More than 6 months later nothing happened. It shouldn‘t be a problem for Eagle Dynamics and their partner to ask these anti virus companies for a „fix“ in their scanners for deactivating the alarm….. or to fix the basic problem with these dlls. I am not using the modules with virus alarms anymore and I have deleted these dlls.

Nearly 3 years later the problem still exists and harms other users:

Yes, you are right. The engine just shuts off. Thank you very much for your advice. Anyway: it is funny that this also happens just by hitting a bush…

Two years later the problem still exists. If you touch a small tree with an Abrams tank and with human‘s walking speed, its engine will get broken…. and the tank will just become a heavy box of steel… that‘s not funny….

I still don‘t have a VR device but if DCS would support VR in Combined Arms, I would buy a VR device. It is a real big pity that CA doesn‘t seem to be in the focus anymore.

I am also knocking at the door behind which the pilot‘s body is being hidden.

Some years ago I have visited an exhibition in Speyer/Germany where the have shown a 1:1 model of the front part of the Natter. I will definitely also try out this mod, because the Natter was always really very interesting for me.

Thanks for your offer. But I have found the reason by myself and found a solution: The problem has been in my mission file. I have added another group with Apaches and there I got the non-editable 60/30 Flare/Chaff-amount. My old Apache group still had the non-editable 60/0 Flare/Chaff-amount in it, which I couldn‘t change. (In the game I just had at the beginning „chaff = out“.) I have solved the problem in this faulty mission file by changing the Apache group to another type of helicopters and changed it back again to Apaches -> 60/30 -> OK

I have made a complete repair of my DCS World installation that there are only official files being installed. And I am using this Computer only for my simulations: DCS World and Flightsimulator. For nothing else. But by using windows defender I have found five !!! files which are being marked containing the trojan.mprotect. Checking these files against virustotal.com showed quite dangerous results which can‘t be ignored: Beside: the other infos on the other tabs are also not good….

When I spawn, I have 0 chaffs. It doesn‘t „happen“, it is always.

I am not using any mods or tools. I have installed the newest Beta version. It always happens when I open my existing mission in the ME.

As I habe written above I have the same situation as in the first screenshot: my default is 60 flares and 0 chaff and they are greyed out so I can‘t change anything.
