  1. I do not know how ED has modelled radar propagation but in 2008 MIT Lincoln Laboratory published a short and understandable presentation on Radar Propagation Effects. It is available here https://www.ll.mit.edu/sites/default/files/outreach/doc/2018-07/lecture 3.pdf From my experience in DCS I would guess that ED's model is much simpler than what occurs to radar radiation / defection in real life given the factors involved. An understandable limitation of a simulation / game.
  2. When you installed the latest update did you 1. Remove any Mods before the installing the update 2. Do a repair after the installing the update 3. Delete all files in your Users/(name)/Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/fxo and Users/(name)/Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/metashaders2 4. Reinstall any mods (I use OvGME which makes deleting and re-enabling Mods very easy) 5. Restart DCS once doing the above 6. Run the game in the Normandy 2 map for about 5 to 10 minutes to allow the fxo and metashader files to rebuild? I have a single player mission with a F-18 flying around on autopilot set up in each map that I run for at least 5 minutes (in each map) so that the fxo and metashader files are generated covering all maps. This seems to assist in reducing the loading time - to an extent.
  3. Just went on a Carrier in a MP server and the deck crew were out of place.
  4. Thought I would try and see if the latest update had improved George's ability to maintain a steady hover - unfortunately not. George still jerks from side to side when in a hover. Track attached. The track shows me as pilot taking off and moving to Gudauta's parallel taxiway and going into a 10 foot hover. I then land and swap to the CPG seat and direct George to ascend 10 feet. George gets into a 10 foot hover but still jerks from side to side. Heavy handed cyclic perhaps? Wind was from 150 degrees at 10 knots. Apache Hover Test_2.trk
  5. When George is flying the Apache its ability to maintain a steady hover is severely degraded if there is any wind. The attached track has the wind going towards 330 at 6 knots. In the hover (200 feet ASL) George swings from side to side when the wind is at the aircraft's 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock. Surprisingly, George's hover is fairly steady when the wing is coming from 90 degrees right or left of the helicopter in the hover. Me thinks George needs some retraining. Apache Hover Test.trk
  6. I deleted the Config\options.lua as suggested above. Restarted DCS MT and reset my Options - System settings (I took screenshots of Low - Medium - High - VR - Custom 1 - Custom 2 and Custom 3 settings before deleting the options.lua). I then went into a MP server and F2'd AI aircraft in flight. Testing F2 in each of my graphic settings (Low - Medium - High - VR - Custom 1 - Custom 2 - Custom 3) it seems to reduce the ghosting/stuttering somewhat but it did not eliminate it. My computer spec are RTX 3090, 64 GB RAM, i9-11900K @ 3.50 Ghz
  7. Further to the above post. I have now tried using the NVG in the same mission but in the MT version. All is now OK with the NVG being aligned to where I am looking when it comes on (in this case directly at the HUD). Screenshot attached. For information - I fly on a 49 inch screen and use TrackIR.
  8. I tried to use the night vision goggles in the F-18 but they first showed up pointing left and zoomed in. After searching the forums I found a thread in the F-16 pages that stated that SSAO needed to be switched off. I did this and re-entered the mission and switched on the NVG with the result the they now point slightly right of the HUD and still zoomed in. Screenshot and track attached. This was in single thread not MT. F-18C NVG.trk
  9. In the F-15 WSO Control Setup I have bound my HOTAS thumb switch forward to MIC Switch FWD (Call Radio 1 Menu) and my HOTAS thumb switch aft to MIC Switch AFT (Call Radio 2 Menu) and this works OK for me to bring up the Comms Menu.
  10. @Gideon312 I am using my TM Joystick and HOTAS for the WSO Joystick and HOTAS and the two WSO Hand Controllers (RHC and LHC). The way I isolate each is by putting modifiers in the WSO control setups. For the WSO Joystick and HOTAS my modifier is my HOTAS joybtn_25 and for the RHC it is joybtn_10 and for the LHC it is joybtn_9. When the respective joybtns are ON then the relevant control setup works. It does mean that only one - WSO flight controls or WSO RHC or WSO LHC - can be on at any one time so I do have to remember to switch on and off each modifier button as required. Attached are screenshots of the relevant WSO control setups that I have found work OK for me.

    V-n Diagrams

    Has anyone come across any V-n Diagrams for the DCS F-15E?
  12. Have you bound keys or buttons in the F-15 WSO Controls setup. When you move from the Pilot (front seat) to the WSO seat (back seat) you also move from the F-15 to the F-15 WSO controls setup.
  13. In the Options > Special the F-15E includes a tick box for Enable Ghost Controls. What are Ghost Controls?
