  1. King, I would say it's an issue with the vocal minority oversounding the sane ( :P ) majority. It's not a noteworthy plane, it's not something special and it's not something most plane enthusiasts would salivate over. I for one have no desire for the Viggen and won't buy it, even on sale. There are better planes out there that could've been made for DCS, EASTERN modern planes (that are sorely missing among DCS modules). So, the score for WIP modules is: 6 trillion western plane modules vs 0 Eastern modern plane modules. :( Why don't modern Eastern planes get no love?
  2. Deleted... cause was "Aries Airborne Radio".
  3. Thanks, man, much appreciated!
  4. It's either a bug or a "feature" because it WAS possible before. I haven't flown the 29 for any amount of time since before the last 2 or 3 updates, back then it was still possible iirc. Also, if your AoA is so high that you would drag with that short AB on the ground, then it doesn't matter, cause you already dragged down your engine nozzles to the bone. ;-)
  5. Sadly there is a LOT more stuff and heck of a lot more important, missing in DCS than some stress damage model. Or it's bugged or not working properly. Sadly, it's the only flight simulator like this out there. :(
  6. I've discovered that for many settings and options you have to restart the game before they "take".
  7. As title says. Flaps won't deploy as long as the airbrake is extended, kinda reverse situation of airbrakes and gear. Tried until the point where I had to pull in AB and extend gear, 330kmh.
  8. My 29 lost it's 6 dof capability in one of the last updates. It doesn't detect sideways movement with Freetrack and I can no longer look behind the seat. Anybody else feel the same?
  9. This is a new error I'm getting. Maybe a new thread should be created so we don't pollute this one. Btw., where is the gcicap.log dumped?
  10. Lukrop, when I try to use your version with 1.5 and latest MIST, I get the following error. But when I try to edit it a little to eliminate friendly CAPS I start getting errors about template problems in line 867 and so on.
  11. Yeah, that's what I pretty much want, thanks! :beer: Just some easy and simple A-A fighting until the new GCICAP script is out :) One last thing: if I want the game to choose randomly between three different plane types to spawn, is that possible to set up with triggers or is that already script territory?
  12. I've done quite a bit of mission making and even scripting in Operation Flashpoint and Arma2, but DCS ME is the most anti-intuitive system I've met yet. Could you please give me a few tips on how to set up fighter intercepts with triggers or at least some tutorial online? I made and am maintaining a fighter mission because a friend of mine and I like to fly together, without the lag from online servers, and this script was it's lifeblood. Would very much like to get rid of it and go over to something simpler and not broken by DCS updates. :) Thanks. :beer:
  13. Thanks for the reply!
  14. Hm, okay, so that's strange because a) I don't have any skin mods installed (I have that in my 1.2 install) b) I've done repair of the install and it's still there. Lol. I guess redownloading entire game is in order. :doh: Thanks for the reply. PS: the thread can be deleted, since it seems to be my mistake. My apologies, LNS!
  15. Anyone else having this problem too? It's the SFR Yugoslavia livery. I'm not running any mod whatsoever and this is the first time I've flown the '21 in a long time, so no clue how old this problem is.
  16. can we please use the original (Russian) designations and none of those silly NATO names? :P :beer: That's what I figured, but I've seen people pull such stupid s--t in my life that I rather asked.
  17. Any idea when will we get a working, 1.5-compatible version? The latest (14 Sept) doesn't work with 1.5.
  18. Editor test against an unarmed AI or was that another player with guns only?
  19. What sound mod did you use? Cause my 1.5 definitely doesn't sound like that, lol!
  20. If I understand correctly this just modifies NVGs of planes that already have them, but doesn't add them to any that don't (like FC3 planes)?
  21. I looked, but there is no trading section on the forum. Is trading going on and is it even possible to transfer one module to another owner? I'm namely interested in getting rid of one module and would be happy if somebody would give me another in return. ;-)
  22. Check DCS assets cause AFAIK there's already an Easter Egg UFO in there. Otherwise I can't explain what crossed the Black Sea from Caucasus to Turkey in only 5 seconds on the VA server. That was no missile/rocket - the flight range is too long and they weren't even allowed on VA.
  23. I voted yes. I bought FC3 at full price myself, even though I am far from those people who can throw money at developers just to support them, but I don't feel it would hurt me any if people would get for free one of those planes that I paid for. I'm not that jealous or stingy. Let's face it, the A is a pretty basic plane, far more basic than the Su-25T we get for free. I would actually argue that the 25T is far a better and more valuable plane than 29A and maybe it should be the other way round... pay for 25T and get 29A for free. :P the 29A doesn't have anything that actually puts it on somewhat equal terms with the 27 like the 29S. It doesn't have the R-77 (which is bugged like other missiles and underperforming - speed loss for example), doesn't have the TWS2, has only basic A-G armament and only 6 hardpoints. Plus, it still has only SFM and will have it for a long time to come yet, considering length of time needed for PFM development and 29 PFM being of very low priority for ED. Look at how long it took for it to get 3d cockpit! I don't expect 29 PFM to come out before 2017, Su-33 MAYBE in 2016. - So, to sum it up. The 29A is an extremely basic fighter with limited AG capability, with the simplest flight model possible. It doesn't bring anything to the table in FC3 when that package has the much-better S version (and to some extent the G). Who even bothers flying the A when they have the chance to fly the G or S? I never see people online in A when the S or G slots are free. I honestly believe giving it for free would help sales of FC3, bring in new players and maybe, MAYBE hold back a little (or lower) the announced price hikes for DCS. So, yes, gratis 29A.
  24. If you find out how to get it back, let us know cause I also dearly miss the navigation screen with the airports in HHD. Was much easier to select a landing waypoint than it is now.
  25. Having major problems with micro-stutters a minute or two into flying. With the rCtrl+Pause turned on I can see my FPS switching continuously from certain/real/realistic FPS number to half that and back again and so on within less than a second and that goes on for the entire playtime. If anybody ever flew IL-2: Cliffs of Dover they will know what I'm talking about. It's flyable, but not pleasant and definitely doesn't help with air-refueling or landing on carrier.
