  1. Exactly! Case in point: the northernmost part of mainland Norway is approximately as far from the geographic north pole as Houston TX is form the Canadian Border.
  2. He believed that the submarine launched F-15 video was real... Perhaps google can find him a good optometrist?
  3. A new preview video popped up in my youtube notifications:
  4. This is probably the dumbest request since "Wah, people won't let me join as a RIO in their F14. I demand that Heatblur fix this..." a few years ago.
  5. Have you checked the wind settings in the mission editor?
  6. There's a bug in the active runway logic, so the ILS isn't synchronized with the active runway given by ATC at low wind speeds. Set up a headwind of ~7kts and see if that helps.
  7. What do you base that on? Out of the 17 IRIAF tactical airbases listed on wikipedia, 10 of them have ILS for at least one runway according to the Iranian AIP.
  8. There is no ILS at Lar IRL, so that's probably why it has been removed. See section 2.19: https://ais.airport.ir/documents/452631/63756645/OISL.PDF
  9. RCS is just a static value defined defined for each aircraft. AI values are defined in \DCS World\Scripts\Database\PlaneConst.lua / HelicopterConst.lua, and playable module values are typically defined in the \CoreMods\aircraft\[module_name]\[module_name].lua (e.g. \CoreMods\aircraft\FA-18C\FA-18C.lua).
  10. You obviously didn't scroll down to the end of the article...
  11. You're absolutely right. I didn't know about that one. https://www.google.com/maps/@35.1539127,33.2654197,192m/data=!3m1!1e3
  12. The rest of the map is set in a relatively recent era, so a pre-1974 version of Nicosia airport doesn't make much sense. Shackleton? Are you sure you're noe thinking of the two at Paphos?
  13. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/screenshots/572/
  14. The last time I checked, the ADF in the F-18 wasn't compatible with regular NDBs. It uses the COM radio, which can't tune to frequencies below ~100MHz.
  15. Note that the active runway for the ILS is not necessarily the same as for the ATC for low wind speeds. Set a headwind of 7kts, and the ILS will switch on.
  16. No, they shouldn't. Replacing obsolete software or hardware is a user responsibility.
  17. It was basically "Hey, tablets are cool, right? Let's make a hopeless tablet OS for PCs!" Luckily, they came to their senses before making Win 10.
  18. What about 8?
  19. Just go for the passive aggressive "limited experience" (sic.) and don't connect Win 10 to a Microsoft account when installing. After installing, disable telemetry (there are plenty of guides on how to do that). Using Win 7 on a computer connected to the internet a year after Microsoft stopped supporting it is, to put it mildly, not particularly smart from an IT security point of view...
  20. You should probably read §2 in the ED EULA. TL;DR: you have purchased a license to use a piece of software. You do not own the software.
  21. I use Adblock Plus (for Firefox). I think it's available for most other browsers as well.
  22. Are there still people around who don't use an adblocker? I haven't seen an ad on youtube for years...
  23. 0 wind causes more issues than it prevents. At 0 wind an airport will use the default active runway. If the active runway is a runway direction without ILS, the ILS will be switched off with 0 wind. For airports with ILS for both runway directions, only one is active at a time. There is a bug in DCS where the change over logic for ATC and ILS isn't synchronized. The wind threshold for an active runway change for the ILS is around 5kts. TL;DR: Set a 7tk headwind in the mission editor and test again.
  24. You can't compare a general purpose processor with hardware built for a single purpose. Comparing FLOPS is just as pointless as using MIPS as a measure of performance when comparing RISC and CISC architectures. If an ASIC performs a certain signal processing task using integers, the concept of FLOPS doesn't exist in that context. The concept of "raw processing power" is irrelevant for a FIR filter. Ruggedizing and certifying components for use in avionics is a slow and expensive process, so any designs that are derivatives of commercial components are ancient technology compared to current commercial products.
