  1. +1 ... even if we don't have (yet) a Korea map, I'd like a Korean livery too. My preference is for regular service liveries of countries that we can fit on available maps (so, no african countries for example, apart from Egypt), also I'm not a fan of aerobatic teams or anniversary liveries, from your list at the 1st post I would prioritize these: Soviet BM (two red lines on fuselage) Soviet Camo Chinese PLAAF (Standard) BM East German BM - Early (old roundel) East German BM (new roundel) East German Camo - Fighter Bomber Livery (fictional on MiG-17F Lim5) Polish (Standard) BM Polish Camo - Fighter Bomber (fictional on MiG-17F Lim5) Czech MiG-17 (Standard) BM Czech MiG-17 "Red" Vietnam BM 2047 Vietnam BM 2019 Vietnam Camo 2072 Indonesian (Standard) BM Egyptian (Royal Standard) BM Egyptian Nile Valley Camo Iraq (Standard) BM Syrian Camo Syrian BM United Arab Republic (Standard) BM Cuban (Standard AS) BM (fictional on MiG-17F Lim5) Cuban (AS) Camo (fictional on MiG-17F Lim5) US "Have Drill" Camo (based on Syrian camo) Thanks a lot for querying the Users .. I will purchase this bird as soon as it's available, but please don't doo as the MB339 and provide a small "early access" discount Eduardo
  2. You have to steer with differential braking, the front wheel just casters. If both brakes were to be controlled by a single control, how would you do differential braking? I binded two axes, one for each wheelbrake.
  3. I didn't say that, but anyone that keeps asking for more things instead of enjoying what we already have been given, does come across as a bit ungrateful.

    The file is db_countries.lua and is located within the DCS program folder, at /Scripts/Database/
  5. yes, this aircraft does not have support for keyboard control of the flight surfaces nor throttle. If you don’t have a joystick, you can connect an x-box controller which is not ideal but it is less expensive.
  6. The three cooling flap levers are close together, I'm sure on a real Corsair the pilot was able to close all three with a single hand movement.
  7. I do ... practice them a lot on training first ... what's the point of having an accurate simulation if then we go and pilot the aircraft like it were a car?
  8. The red lamp does not glow on my DCS, even tough the Master Armament switch is ON, Rocket Power ON, there are rockets on the wing mounts, and the engine is running (in case the battery alone didn't provide power for the Rocket Box). Is this a bug, or an item not yet implemented? The Safety plug seems to not be implemented, which makes sense as it is an item mostly used by the Ground Crew to prevent accidental rocket launches.
  9. Roger, well if it works fine then there is nothing more to say, enjoy the sim
  10. seems to me that you barely meet the recommended storage requirements (depending on which extra content you have bought): Recommended system requirements (HIGH graphics settings): OS 64-bit Windows 10/11; DirectX11; CPU: Core i5+ at 3+ GHz or AMD FX / Ryzen; RAM: 32 GB ; Free hard disk space: 500 GB on Solid State Drive (SSD) + extra space for paid content ;
  11. Yes, developing simulated aircraft on DCS is a labor intensive job, which can take well over a year even for a "simple" variant. The only way such a development would be worthwhile is if there are enough DCS users willing to purchase it. As we already have two variants of the Fw-190 my guess is that not many people would purchase a third, I certainly wouldn't as I'd rather have a completely new aircraft. My guess is that an earlier 109, like the 109E, would sell well only if it was acompanied by a similar spitfire variant, say a Mk II, or even a Hawker Hurricane of the period. For my taste I would purchase a Spanish Civil War Bf-109B in an instant, and pair it against the I-16 (even tough the DCS variant is a much later one). In my opinion, a WW2 best seller would be the Me-262 as it would appeal to both WW2 buffs and early jets lovers. Well, for one not every user is fixated on reliving history just as it happened, on my case I love to do missions that stray away from history a bit, for example having chilean P-47 doghfight against F4U from Argentine for example The best way to convince ED that there is in fact a market for WW2 is to BUY .. that's why I have purchased every WW2 Module so far (and every map), and I'm enjoying the Corsair a lot, in spite of its expected early toothing bugs. And that's why I will purchase the La-7 as soon as it hits the store. Eduardo
  12. no, just place its folder within /saved games/dcs/mods/aircraft/
  13. seems to me that if 50GB is that important, then most likely what you really need is a larger storage … 50 GB is not going to solve your lack of storage.
  14. use the combined joint task forces blue and red, to be free from country restrictions, seems easier than modding dcs.
  15. Hello, Some values of this chart do not match the limits shown on the gauges, for example: Oil Temp: Redlined at 115 C° instead of 100, minimum shown at 30 instead of 40 C°. Normal range (blue) reaches up to 110 instead of 80 C°. Fuel Press: On the gauge shows redline at 6 rather than 18. Oil Press: On the gauge is redlined at 85 instead of 100. They should match, to make it easier to respect the engine limits. Eduardo
  16. Don’t waste your breath explaining things to this kind of user, they need to belittle other’s work so they can feel somewhat better with themselves, I send them straight to the ignore list as I won’t be losing much anyway
  17. place it at /saved games/dcs/StaticTemplate/ if the folder doesn’t exist, create it manually.
  18. look at the Fuel Pressure gauge, the last patch modified it to show water pressure instead. It should show a positive value when its working:
  19. You are correct, didn't think of that .. on my mission I intend to use X:COCKPIT triggers to inspects these parameters that the Module offers: Eduardo
  20. Thanks, really nice for using when exploring the aircraft limits. I'm currently on the first stages of editing a training mission for Engine management, using a Climb to 25,000 feet as a fixed situation to be able to monitor it using triggers. My purpose is to learn the proper use of all controls: Super Charger, cooling flaps, throttle, mixture, with the mission reminding me of operating the blower properly as we climb, learn to keep an eye on temps, etc. To give a worthwhile mission objective and add a sens of urgency, I intend to record the time it takes to get to 25,000, the less time the higher the score because of this, I wonder if you could add to the script some engine management parameters, like cyl temp, oil temp, etc ... it would help me a lot while I develop my mission, as reading the gauges while flying makes me kind of lose focus on my aircraft handling best regards, Eduardo
  21. You maybe are confusing with the F4U-4 specs, the F4U-1 only did 378 mph at 20,000ft. Source: https://www.wwiiaircraftperformance.org/f4u/f4u.html
  22. ok, sorry I didn't catch this meaning, thanks for clarifying.
  23. Liveries may be redundant to you, but please do not speak for everyone else: For me, liveries add much for immersion on my own missions, as I strive to use the most appropiate liveries, so in addition to what ED gives us at CoreMods I also download extra liveries from User Files:
  24. I'm so glad that I don't have to purchase them, I get to employ them for free on my own missions as either enemy or allied AI aircrafts and assets.
  25. This theme of removing liveries to accomodate people with smaller storage cames up every few months, and its not laziness but rather I find that any such scheme will not really eliminate the cause of the problem, as a few extra GB will not solve much if your drive is too small. On my DCS the biggest use of space come from the Maps, not CoreMods: almost 1/3 storage space is used by my maps, 1/4 is on CoreMods, 1/5 on aircraft Modules. Even if all coremod liveries were removed, I would only recover around 1/6 of the space ... so, I don't find the effort truly worthwhile.
