In my opinion, with the exception of some critical radar and FM bugs, a fully functional HUD and weapons employment system is essential for the successful use of the M2000 in his primary intercept role and should have taken priority over the rest (even to the INS position update bug or the TAS inaccuracy). I personally think that the triangle, lock tones, magic in background while system is in GUN mode etc. are fully functional and not cosmetic features.

The need for implementation of the triangle and the lock tones was announced several months ago. I won't lie, i'm little disappointed when i see the progress on Harrier's Hud, while such basic (and relative simple to code?) indications are still missing from the Mirage. Perhaps, Zeus could find some time in his schedule to implement them and reduce little the hunger for us M2000 fans

Have several questions, after doing extensive dogfights in the JUST DOGFIGHT multiplayer server. 1) https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2872511&postcount=3052 '' Updated MAGIC lock tone ... Removed MAGIC seek tone, need to add MAGIC TIR tone ... ''. Are there (or should be) two separate tones (magic lock - magic tir), or is it one and the same tone, which is triggered in 2 different conditions? If the second tone is different, is he currently implemented ? And should this tone be audible only if the TIR message appears (=radar lock and double ring) or if the magic's seeker is also pointed to the radar lock (=magic + radar lock + double ring) ? Until now I thought that if you hear a tone you can in any case take the shoot, that's not true, since I had a magic seeker tone (target in circle) without a radar designated target, in distances well outside shooting parameters. The MAGIC TIR tone as a separate tone makes perfectly sense to me = you can shoot immediate. 2) In some cases , where I had multiple aircrafts in front of me, I had a good magic + radar lock, and suddenly the circle (magic) separated from the square (radar lock) and my wingman was on the circle and the enemy on the square . That happened although the enemy was on the right side of my hud and the friendly in a shorter distance on the left side (= without crossing in my view the bogeys position). Should this happen or am i missing something? I thought that if you have a magic and radar lock the magic seeker lock is ''fixed'' to the target. And I can understand the importance of the (missing currently) visual indication of the triangle (magic + radar lock) = the missile will follow the locked target. By the way the triangle is magic specific and does not appear with the 530, right? 3) The third question is more DCS World rather than Razbam M2000 specific. Very few of my fights were evolved in a true dogfight, in almost every engagement either me or the enemy or both could achieve a head on kill. a) How is magic's (short range missiles in general) effectiveness coded? Is the kill propability depending on target aspect angle or not? Do i have the same chance to kill the enemy, irrespective if i fire the all aspect missile from the 12 or the 6 o' clock positon? b) I was reading an aviation magazine, which covered a squadron exchange between HAF Mirage 2000's and dutch air force F-16A's in the 90's. The journalist was present on the various briefings and debriefings. According to the article, the dutch leader pilot presented the first day the aim - 9L capabilities and explained, that if the target make's a 6,5 g turn, he could exit the flight envelope of the missile. Is there a minimum high g avoidance threshold coded in our game ?

Does anybody know how to change the helmet color for the external model (what particular files must be edited etc)? I like the classic 80's white helmet

Already reported bug https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=180414

It's the only module i fly (have to admit that i'm a big fan of the Mirage 2000 aircraft from the early 90's, when i sat for the first time in a real aircraft:)). The main area for improvement, IMO, are some HUD / RADAR functionality /bugs that are missing / need be resolved (already discussed several times in various topics). The FM feels much better and i imagine that it will be further fine tuned in the future. Completion of the module shouldn't be to far away.

I would like to ask, if it's possible to develop the Magic and 530D missiles as captive / non lethal variants for practicing purposes in SP and MP missions. The latest Hellas Theater in bms offers that and it's a nice feature. Or at least have available the external model for the Magic X and 530X training variants (blue paint) for eye candy purposes.

The 530D DLZ is not displayed properly, perhaps also the Magic

Was practicing today a simple mission in the mission editor (start in the air). Have selected an alternator 1 failure (after 1 min. - within 1 min - 100 % failure probability), no master caution and warning light came up. After terminating the mission, in the event list the failure was listed.

Do you use hall sensors or potentiometers? Any chance to see in the future an Mirage 2000C stick and throttle?

A-7E / H, F-4E, Mirage F1C = the golden second generation aircraft era. If razbam could do all of them ... Anyway, i'm eagerly waiting for the corsair

Hi, can you provide a classic white helmet ? See the picture I have posted here https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2986828#post2986828 And how do you change the color of the helmet? Thanks!

The need to make constant corrections during crosswind landings depends primary from the wind conditions. A steady crosswind requires little correction, the opposite is true for changing crosswind with turbulence 2 months ago i visited a HAF M2000 base for an airshow and one of my multiple questions to the pilots was exactly the landing behaviour of the aircraft . The answer was, that landing is straightforward, the FBW makes all the job and keeps the nose steady. At apprx. 50feet the pilot retards slowly the throttle and simultaneously makes gently pitch up inputs (about 3 small inputs, the pilot demonstrated the movement with his hands). Also they told that Crab is the used technique for crosswind landings and after touchdown, the aircraft aligns itself with the runway due to the big span between the 2 main wheels. Here is landing footage, (form outside an in cockpit) min. 11- 14 . The f-16 requires during landing a constant back pressure on the stick , it's how the fbw is programmed to give the pilot the feel of a traditional plane.

Could you move the french skin for the m2000 on the blue side and the uae skin on the red side?

Don't want to open a new thread, motherboard (msi gaming 5 z97) is dead, as my techinician said, and it will be replaced with a gigabite new one, since the same mb isn't available. So i can't deactivate the modules i have (a-10, m2000) before, what can i do now? Simple activate again? Does it work so simple? And, in general, do i have to reinstall windows 10 (have saved a system image for windows 10, can i use it)?

If i remember correctly, fuel dump works only for the external fuel tanks.

I updated from msi gtx 770 2gb to msi 1070 founders edition, the performance boost was amazing. The founders edition was the only one that could fit in my pc case, otherwise i would have chosen the msi gaming x.
