Hello. Recently, the Logitech bought the Saitek. Then appeared a new joystick in sales, Logitech G Saitek X52 Pro . This joystick looks almost the same as Saitek x 52 pro. I have bad experiences with Logitech products, bad quality. Can someone tell me, Is Logitec G X 52 pro same quality as the Saitek X 52 Pro?

Yes , I have Nvidia graphic card. Thaks guys.

Hi all. I am absent for a long time when it comes to DCS. I would like to ask you to help me with making video.Some older programs that I use for screen capture provide poor results, poor image quality. What is the best way to capure screen content during playing DCS track to get high quality HD video later?

To be more clear, this is the result I want to get. https://www.dropbox.com/s/dxqmzgip4cudd0g/Screen_160125_173927.jpg?dl=0

Yes, but then I don't see clearly hud. Can the pilot be a little taller, but hud to be seen complete, same as at difault position?

Hello. I would like to change the "position of the pilots head" in airplanes.I wont that pilot become bit taller. I suppose that it is necessary to change the value in an lua file. Can somebody explain me how to do that? I know about it already said on the forum. I was away for two years from DCS. I see that there are significant changes. I'm not sure whether things can be done in "old fashion" way. Thanks in advance.

And keep the speed >500

Every system on the plane has a switch on/of. I dont know how else to answer.MiG 21 BiS has three switches on the right verical shelf,plus eight on the central shelf,as you know.That is eleven in total.In FC 3 you have "I". Are you trying now to claim that F 15 aircraft radar, three generations ahead, has only one? I dont follow,really. Here is one of the pages F15 flight and combat instruction USAF: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pa1fy1ixaupdhd6/Page%20for%20ED.png?dl=0 I understand that you guys at 51-st are serious squadron.In my opinion,the best and only serious in comunity.I understand that you have your own server, you have devoted much time and money into this.To play FC 3 at right way,you need 600€ worth computer,200€ worth monitor,200€ worth joystick, 130€ worth TrackIR...I know it's hard to find justification, to both existing and new members, it was all justified, just so all could get in to the server, press "I" key, and pull the trigger. I am wrong adress for that.

Nice post Weta43,without the addition of personal.Now participants of the forum can criticize the work of ED, although not directly insulted by admnistrators of the forum. Evident is a big progress of democracy, and that is very important for further development of DCS. :D Now, about last sentence in your message, the "argument", I am sending a reply in PM. First of all,I never claimed that the missile guidance, radar, ECM... at DCS MiG 21 BiS are better modeled than in FC3.I know DCS MiG 21 BiS is "inside the DCS World frame",and that is the problem.Many things can not be modeled because of this, and DCS progress is very slow.I said that these are all elements that must be modeled in the case of simulation of modern fighter planes, and generally DCS MIG 21 BIS is better. Some thing are more detailed there,more realistic. Example. If you forget to turn on fuel pumps in MiG 21 BiS, engine will start.This is 100% realistic.While perform procedure to take of and exit the runway, they will shut down for lack of fuel.If you decide to start the engine and take off immediately (emergency procedures), and the rest of procedures do in the air, it can happen to you that immediately after take-off engine runs out of the fuel and the plane will crash. So what,press ESC,an take another? We dont pay for them. I dont think that way. In FC 3 press two buttons,and job done? Is this simplification? In real life, for some guided missiles, before driving to the runway and take off, power must be on. Otherwise, they may become unusable.The DCS MiG-21bis have interactive cockpit, so that we can obtain such naviku.Možda in the future to be modeled. To use radar,first you must put it on stand by mode,to worms up for few minutes. Sometimes people forget to do this.So you enter in to the dangerous zone and then you realize that you forgot to turn on the radar. Or thrying to fire and no weapon firing,just klik,klik :).In the midle of the fight.What did I forget now?A lot of place for pilot error. How much planes crashed due to pilot error?But in Fc you just press I key and no need to worry. Is this simplification? Each plane has a different kind of systems. If one is broken, the pilot uses the alternative. But if the pilot does not know wich one ... This comes to the fore when the plane is damaged in battle. The pilot needs to know wich to system or instrument to turn off, and which to use as an alternative. That could be crucial, will pilot fail to return the damaged plane at the airport or not. For all this you need to know your plane. Nothing of this in FC 3. Interactive cockpit is very important.It is a prerequisite for detailed system modeling.So it is not everythig in presing buttons,right? On emore example. S-5 unguided missiles. Using this weapon has limitations. During the flihgt there is air flow and heating of all the bodies they penetrate through the air at high speed.Excessive heating can cause startup or explosion of gunpowder engines of these rockets.Lets not comment on what kind of problems may cause explosion of the payload under the wing. So there are limitations: Air temperature 0°-20°C, speed >900 km/h,time flight not more than 17 minutes. Air temperature 20°-35°C,speed <900 km/h, time of the flight not more than 20 minutes. Speed >900 km/h - 10minutes flight. Air temperature 35°-50°C,speed <900 km/h -10 minutes flight. Sped >900 km/h - 5 minutes. Other weapons have some limitations.Nothing of that in DCS World.

I hope that someday you will be in a position to have access to military material. Only then you can see how bad things are.

Thats right.

It is.

We're talking about simulations of modern era fighter jets.It consists of a lot of things. Radars,missile guidance, ECMs, flight model, many restrictions on the use of aircraft depending on the load and atmospheric conditions ... You did some parts of flight model,some graphic details, and trying to impress the audience. You did not do interactive cockpits, even partially.Other simulations that have more than ten years ago and more.All actions, taking off, turning on radar,search and target lock, weapon usage and landing are made with a pair of keys. Allmost no limitation,no room for error.The difference between good and bad pilots is that a good pilot knows limitationsof his airplane and made no mistake. In FC 3 pilot knowledge can not be shown. Just a few programming tricks and eventual exploit. All things considered, DCS MiG-21 BiS is currently the best module,in my opinion.

FC 3 is far from realism. Everythig is simplified. If you want a high percentage of realism, then play DCS MiG-21bis.In my opinion, this is the best DCS module,if we talk about airplanes, not helicopters.And there's a lot missing, but it is quite a good start for further development.
