Bourrinopathe

Even on full afterburner, the Su-33 has a very low thrust. It's impossible to take-off or maintain a leveled flight (with or without any weapons). I noticed this issue on my system (w/ OB 1.5.0.45655) with the AI diving into the sea instead of landing on the Kuznetsov in a custom mission. I created two test missions variants with a player-controlled Su-33: I barely reached 100 km/h on the runway and couldn't maintain a stable flight (reproduced several times). I also checked the brakes (efficiency and keybinding) and my thrust axis commands (nothing wrong). Two tracks attached (airborne + runway). [bourrinopathe_system.nfo] OB 15 Su-33 low thrust.rar

There should be an announcement about the gimbals soon. The Gunfighter series will use cams. No picture has been made available yet (afaik). From what I understood, there will be two cam options: one with a firm center (on each axis) (to mimic the current Black Mamba design) and one with a smooth center. The Black Mamba may have its own base later when the modern stick will be produced (not decided).

Soon we'll have plenty of cute Su-15 and F-27.

I ordered my BM and T-Rudder directly from their chinese production site (shipped by DHL international). I assume you should be able to do the same. I live on an island in the Indian Ocean. Contact: sales_en@vkb-sim.pro

Bug most probably in front of a firing squad by now ;) It has been reported in two other threads.

Same issue reported here: [REPORTED]AI Never Ending RTB message Repeated comms, ad nauseum. [track showing the issue] (.rar) [system .nfo] The two flankers will T-O then begin their landing routine with the RTB message loop. From what I've experienced, it's not triggered if the player aircraft is not airborne (Su-27 in that track). Good luck squashing the AI bug ;)

[Here's another battrack] (.rar) [system .nfo] The two flankers will T-O then begin their landing routine with the RTB message loop. From what I've experienced, it's not triggered if the player aircraft is not airborne (Su-27 in that track). Similar threads: unending same allied report Repeated comms, ad nauseum.

Apparently not working as intended: it's possible to land/T-O/roll on a damaged runway. I was tweaking a quick scramble training mission and I used a B-1B with Mk-84 and finally a full load of penetrating GBU-31(V)3/B (switching from Runway Bombing to Pinpoint Strike task) but I've been able to land/roll safely at any speed with a Su-27. (4 GBUs used per impact point) The ATC correctly suggests an alternate airbase but the craters are harmless decals. (Grimes confirmed the craters should damage the landing gear, so I'm posting that report here) [custom mission, 1.5 ME, landing/rolling tested several times] [system.nfo] Thanks BW_T01_T-O5_TEST.miz

Ok thanks ;)

Harmless destroyed runway? Is it still possible to T-O/land on a "destroyed" runway in 1.5 beta? I was tweaking a quick scramble training mission and I used a B-1B with Mk-84 and finally a full load of penetrating GBU-31(V)3/B (switching from Runway Bombing to Pinpoint Strike task) but I've been able to land/roll safely at any speed with a Su-27. (4 GBUs used per impact point) The ATC correctly suggests an alternate airbase but the craters are harmless decals. Is it working as intended? (not that important, but I'd like to know if I'm doing it wrong) Thanks

And here's a fresh interactive presentation:

Thanks for the update Sokol ;) Here's the official forum link with the english description. Many great devices to come! :thumbsup: I hope the new PAK FA-inspired stick won't take too long. I'd be happy with a polypropylene version.

Here's a detailed review of the new T-Rudder version (MkIII) on Mudspike. The recent partnership with Stratojet will also improve VKB's devices availability in the US :thumbup:

The night lighting is currently not considered as a bug. >>> Please check that closed thread <<< (it may be WIP or very low priority… no idea ;))

Hi there, Sorry if I missed the information elsewhere but I had no luck with the search results and I didn't find anything about the lights in the scripting wiki. Is there still no way to control the navigation lights for an AI unit? (I was trying to tweak a simple mission where you have to follow an aircraft at dawn in the mountains and with the sun in your eyes) (it's gorgeous but not safe at all) (Based on what I found (and what I didn't), I have little hope :hmm:) Thanks!

Thanks for the workaround Maverick :thumbup: Here's an additional track with the RTB message loop. Even back to base and parked, the AI keeps broadcasting the message. The message is not triggered if the player aircraft is not airborne/started. [system.nfo attached] OB 15 AI_RTB_msg_loop.rar Bourrinopathe system.zip

Just you ;) It could be helpful if you could provide more details, as required (settings, hardware, etc.): Bug report FAQ & Guide Fine here (GTX 970, high settings, Flat Shadows OFF, Su-27 Instant Action Free Flight):

(Windows 10) Just run the repair process with that shortcut and check if it fixes your problem.

Open the Module Manager, Log in and Install. ("tiles" icon next to the options cogwheel) Afaik, no additional activation is used for the OB.

Could you give us more details about the issue please? The link you provided in your picture points to the current OB version available for download: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/beta/ (the .torrent is also available) Did you try to repair your current v1.5 installation? search for the shortcut: "Repair DCS World OpenBeta" or use the appropriate command line: "…\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS_updater.exe" repair

There's also a weird red light in the Su-27 when the cockpit lights are on (no red tint on the dashboard or flood light). It may be related.

"Bear Trap" available in the FC3 and F-15C modules here. (F-15C module installed after the 1.5 initial download)

Indeed. That should have happened with the budget cuts ;) Brighter lights would be more helpful. Otherwise the texture looks really good. Not a real Beryoza but: (real Beryoza (no lights on))

The smoke trails may be less visible with the terrain in background but it doesn't seem that far from the real MiG-29: At least, it doesn't look like an oversight from ED or a bug.

It has already been reported. Don't forget to search the forum for similar issues first ;)
