  1. Is there anyone else that favors the old payload and encyclopedia over the diagram-ish/booklike ones we have nowadays? I remember the old ones, when we had a nice 3D view of the aircraft before flight. My grand old LOMAC setup has this feature. Is there a way to access any sort of thing in-game before the flight, or was it removed for a particular reason? My main gripe with the new (or should I say not so new) payload window is the fact that we can't see the skins we've selected before having to wait 3-5 minutes to fly the thing. The encyclopedia in the old days gave us a view from all perspectives, not just from a wingman's POV.
  2. Alright, did a complete deletion and reinstall, getting used to JSGME from this guide http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=98607 but it's a little confusing.
  3. You ain't gonna tell a man who just spent around 300 USD to forget it. :megalol:
  4. When it's done. :smilewink: Try to remember this too: everything is subject to change.
  5. :megalol: Commodore Datasette for the 64?
  6. He said modern. :lol:
  7. OK but seriously, what's next on the wishlist, DCS Lawnmower?!
  8. 3 connection interrupted from both servers, I know it's an easy fix but I don't know what file is causing it. Is there a log or something of the sort? :helpsmilie:
  9. I was testing out a MiG-25 intercept mission, when the B-52 being intercepted (which it never was, mind you the AI is a bit odd) landed with its flaps out, the remaning part of the wing where the flaps were that was not extended looked odd. I have a photo or two to show it.
  10. Used a flyable F-15E mod and a desert mod, kinda looks like Desert Storm, dontcha think? :D
  11. Merry Christmas everyone! :hehe: I ruined it, didn't I? XD
  12. ??? [sarcasm]Yeah, because driving down a Georgian road with 10 polygons for each mountain in 6 hours is really nice. Not to mention the amazing 10 minutes to sit and warm-up the engine, almost gives me a heart attack every time I do it, it's that exciting.[/sarcasm] Do you really think it would sell as much as it cost to make it? :huh: Even if it only needs a 5,000 dollar budget or even less than that, I wouldn't expect it to even sell that much. Sorry for how rude I'm being about this, but this is more than just a no-go.
  13. Winging it here, but there's also the modern Russian KSVK.
  14. The X-52 Pro (what I use currently) is good to go as a "intermediate" HOTAS. Remember the pinkie switch in the pictures of it? That's a shift key, i.e. you could map twice the functions of the buttons on the HOTAS. If you are buying TIR 5, well, most, if not all of the HOTAS commands can be mapped with an X52 Pro. I also just got through transferring from a 3D Pro to the X-52 Pro, and the loose joystick is easy to get used to, not to mention it feels even better when it's that loose. With the pinkie switch below the trigger, I believe you could map around 50 functions in one mode (X52 has 3 different modes). I'm not so sure I can recommend you to buy it though, considering it's now manufactured by Madcatz. (you know how their products are :wallbash:) The throttle has a friction knob that should be able to change the friction of...well...I'm sure it's self-explanatory. CH products are very good in build quality, and have usually had their designs never/barely changed over the years. The thing is exactly that, though. You're going to have to buy a separate throttle and rudder pedals (mind you it doesn't have a rudder twist on the stick). I'm pretty sure you can come up with how expensive that might be in the end. Now, the X-55...I'm just gonna say this right now, the layout sucks. For someone with small hands like me, obviously it wasn't going to work out. ^ Pretty much says it here.
  15. how do i oxygen :megalol:
  16. The last one I remember, VRS' Superbug had the aircraft modelled really well, but they should've just released their own game. The thing is, without the fly-by-wire system enabled, you could pull off whatever you wanted to do if FSX let you do it. :lol: FSX is pretty difficult to work with when you're trying to create a realistic military aircraft. The freeware military aircraft addons are pure hilarity, try trimming upwards all the way, then pulling full aft on the stick. Watch your MiG-21 do a 360° somersault, à la Su-37. Twice. :megalol: Let's try not to digress too much from the topic, though, right? :thumbup:
  17. **************** has a mod called "Enhanced Nagging Nadia", can't post the link though. The AOA warning cuts off around the 3.2 second mark.
  18. +1 having this problem too with a certain "Nadia" mod for russian betty
  19. Sith did it again. :lol: Alrighty then.
  20. I'm gonna stop you right there. "More realistic" ??? Notice how those flares slow down pretty quick due to drag, like the new ones. Also notice how drag counteracts gravity to make them fall rather slowly after their speed drops, like the new ones. Now, tell me, how are flares that fly at 500 knots behind you for 20 seconds realistic? :lol: Visual-wise, however, the smoke could use a touch up.
  21. What's the "Track.ogg" file in "Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\Cockpits\RWR" used for? I've never heard it play in DCS. It sounds a bit like part of the Russian RWR.
