drack

NixNB and spacehamster are right. I bought this module yesterday and spent quite a bit of time with it. It's impossible to fly an accurate circuit. I can not hold bank angle or pitch on the ball. I tested it against other DCS world and xplane Heli's. Im sure this module is going to be the best of the best when you get to the stage of bringing it out of Beta.

Hi Folks, Has the start up procedure changed since the last up date? I cant get my baby started. Thanks.

EDIT:- just re-read post and it does say "This module will be available to the whole DCS community for no cost". Bring it on guys - good luck.

I had a fly of this baby last night. I'm getting the same as reported in post one and when I lower full flap.

Working fine now after recent update. Thanks.

Hi Folks, I was doing a spin test with an instrument approach flight the other night in the Mig 21. (Great fun LN thanks). I had to deploy the drag chute to get out of the spin which worked well. I then tried to disconnect the chute but it would not come lose. I even tried burning it off with the afterburner. It would not disconnect until I was on the ground. Has anybody managed to get the chute to disconnect in the air? Did I experience a chute disconnect failure? Thanks.

This seems to be where its referring to the F-86:- 00065.793 ERROR Lua::Config: load error livery = {"F86_MAIN", 3,"empty.dds", false}{ {"F86_MAIN", 0,"f-86f_main_DIF.jpg", false}, } name = "4th FW Generic" countries = { "USA", } :[string "?"]:1: unexpected symbol near '{'. 00067.127 WARNING LOG: 11 duplicate message(s) skipped. 00067.127 ERROR SOUND: source_add(host:CONVERTERS_HOST, proto:Aircrafts/Mi-8MTV2/Cockpit/Mi8115ConverterBegin, alt_proto:): can't find proto 00067.127 ERROR SOUND: source_add(host:CONVERTERS_HOST, proto:Aircrafts/Mi-8MTV2/Cockpit/Mi8115ConverterWork, alt_proto:): can't find proto 00067.127 ERROR SOUND: source_add(host:CONVERTERS_HOST, proto:Aircrafts/Mi-8MTV2/Cockpit/Mi8115ConverterEnd, alt_proto:): can't find proto 00067.127 ERROR SOUND: source_add(host:CONVERTERS_HOST, proto:Aircrafts/Mi-8MTV2/Cockpit/Sw3_Full_Up, alt_proto:): can't find proto 00067.129 INFO COCKPITBASE: lua state still active AN_ARC_27_COMMAND_SET, 26 00067.129 INFO COCKPITBASE: lua state still active MACROS, 28 (status undefined) 00067.129 INFO COCKPITBASE: lua state still active AN_APX6_IFF, 29 00067.129 INFO COCKPITBASE: lua state still active INTERCOM, 30 (status undefined) 00067.131 INFO DCS: try to write dump information 00067.199 INFO EDCORE: # -------------- 20160310-112052 -------------- 00067.221 INFO EDCORE: 00067.240 INFO EDCORE: # C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at 12D55AF8 00:00000000 00067.279 INFO EDCORE: 00000000 00000000 0000:00000000 00067.321 INFO EDCORE: 12D55AF8 00BEED00 0000:00000000 00067.341 INFO EDCORE: 137335AB 00BEED30 0000:00000000 ?start@devices_keeper@cockpit@@QEAAXXZ()+AB 00067.399 INFO EDCORE: 1372DD48 00BEED70 0000:00000000 ?c_draw_debug_cockpit_tripod@cockpit@@YAXAEBVPosition3@@@Z()+DB8 00067.421 INFO EDCORE: 55B7398E 00BEEDA0 0000:00000000 00067.440 INFO EDCORE: 55AD336C 00BEEE40 0000:00000000 00067.463 INFO EDCORE: 55B592AF 00BEEE90 0000:00000000 00067.482 INFO EDCORE: 55BC9F8A 00BEEEC0 0000:00000000 00067.504 INFO EDCORE: 55BCA62E 00BEEF10 0000:00000000 00067.524 INFO EDCORE: 55BD4D76 00BEEF40 0000:00000000 00067.546 INFO EDCORE: 55BA8A58 00BEEF80 0000:00000000 00067.549 INFO EDCORE: 55BA8624 00BEEFD0 0000:00000000 00067.550 INFO EDCORE: 182F24BF 00BEF010 0000:00000000 ?NextEvent@wWakeupTime@@UEAAXXZ()+2F 00067.550 INFO EDCORE: 19216CEF 00BEF090 0000:00000000 00067.550 INFO EDCORE: 19217235 00BEF0E0 0000:00000000 00067.551 INFO EDCORE: 55BFE83A 00BEF1D0 0000:00000000 00067.553 INFO EDCORE: 55BFD8B1 00BEF4B0 0000:00000000 00067.554 INFO EDCORE: 55BF634D 00BEF610 0000:00000000 00067.554 INFO EDCORE: 15F67D3A 00BEF640 0000:00000000 ?sendOutputSymbol_@FSM@Common@@AEAAXI@Z()+2A 00067.555 INFO EDCORE: 15F67CF8 00BEF680 0000:00000000 ?enterToState_@FSM@Common@@AEAAXI@Z()+C8 00067.555 INFO EDCORE: 15F67AFB 00BEF6C0 0000:00000000 ?onSymbol_@FSM@Common@@AEAAXI@Z()+1CB 00067.555 INFO EDCORE: 55BFC306 00BEF720 0000:00000000 00067.556 INFO EDCORE: 55C11F94 00BEF750 0000:00000000 00067.556 INFO EDCORE: 55C11EE4 00BEF780 0000:00000000 00067.557 INFO EDCORE: 55CBA93C 00BEFE30 0000:00000000 00067.558 INFO EDCORE: 55CBDF95 00BEFE70 0000:00000000 00067.561 INFO EDCORE: 318613D2 00BEFEA0 0000:00000000 BaseThreadInitThunk()+22 00067.561 INFO EDCORE: 331F54E4 00BEFEF0 0000:00000000 RtlUserThreadStart()+34 00068.029 INFO EDCORE: Minidump created. 00068.029 INFO DCS: try to write track file

Hi, Ive tried to attach my log.txt file but it keeps saying its an invalid file? Many thanks for helping.

Hi Buzzles. Thanks for helping. No, not bad mission file. Have saved it and mig 15 runs fine with it. Done the config files things you have suggested - no joy. It keeps crashing on load up saying 'DCS has stopped responding'. I'm not getting this problem with any other modules. All my drivers and os are up to date.

This module crashes on load since last update? Anybody any ideas how I can fix this? Ive done a dcs repair but no joy?

What is the lowest setting to be able to get cockpit shadows? I haven't quite managed to get to grips with this one yet but I think it is medium? It's sad to see that it is gone as an individual option. Do you think we will get it back as medium shadows is a big resorse eater/fps eater?

With the old engine we used to have to put water on 'low' if only flying over land to get higher FPS because the water was rendered over the entire 'sandbox' with the land over the top of it. Do we still have to do this or is water only rendered where there is water with the new engine? Old habbits are hard to break - I'm still fining my self putting water 'low' if only flying over land.

OK. Thanks cichlidfan. I suppose for the amount of time I spent with it when it first came out I got good value.

Hi folks, I have seen this in the tech q's section:- How to correctly install Black Shark 2 upgrade to DCS World ? First of all you have to install and activate Black Shark 1 from your DVD or download version: DCS: Black Shark (English) Attention! Serial number for Black Shark 1 can't be applied for activation of BS2 upgrade. Then, if you ready to install Black Shark 2 upgrade to DCS World, you can start the installation via Module Manager / Modules tab click on Install button for Upgrade from DCS: Black Shark 1 to DCS: Black Shark 2 and when sel ect components window appears choose DCS BS2 upgrade from BS1 international key. Please make sure you are selecting the correct option during BS2 module install. After that start any mission and enter early purchased key for Black Shark 2 update. Star-Force activation window should be labeled as BlackShark 2 Update ENG. Am I reading this right? I can install my old original BS1 from DVD and it will give me free a serial number for BS2 like it did for the original A10C DVD? I seem to remember that you had to pay to update from BS1 to BS2? Anybody done this, does it work before I waste a bit of time? Thanks.

Yeah, its was only once I had done my post yesterday that I almost immediately remembered what Teo is saying. Been spending to much time with the L-39 and got the map tuning in to my head. Gives me a good excuse to give the Mig 21 a good IFR test out this weekend.

Hi folks, I was desperately trying to tune in to ch 22 PMRG/RSBN for mozdock last night for an ils type approach but could not receive it? The cockpit is no longer in English but im sure I was flicking/operating the dials and switches as usual. Is anyone having this problem or just me? Cheers. edit:- I might have sorted the problem it might have been a mistake on my part.

Nice informative video. Thank you.

Even if not a clickable version being able to at least adjust the altimeter would be good.

Thanks Ramsay. I missed that one.

Is it my setup gone wrong or is the L-39 cockpit in Russian now even when you select USA as side? (post hotfix #4). It was in English.

Nice vid. Thanks for the pointer.

Sorry to jump in on this tread but as we are doing lights....... I cant find the switch to illuminate the instruments. Is there one or is it just cockpit illumination?

'He wants to use the Cockpit shadows (on), but no other shadows (off; clouds, trees).' Me too. Is it possible?

I spent quite a bit of time with this one yesterday morning and am still experimenting. I've initially found that to get a steady 60 fps with no stutter I need to go from having the graphics card do the work and change every thing over to 'application controlled' in the control panel. Previous dcs world seemed to prefer that things were done on the gpu and didn't seem to like 'application controlled'. I'm not seeing any noticeable performance increase but 1.5 looks nice. I was getting grey flickering in the cockpit of the su25 last night when doing an IFR approach and going through cloud. I'm updating my card driver as we speak to see if that helps. I'd be interested to hear how others are getting on with this too.

Many thanks for that Golo.
