As ctguy1955, I posted many videos and photos of exhaust manifold flames on My premium account, and someone (name starts with an S and He makes DCSWorld Campaigns ) did not like Me mentioning I got the warbird flames from one of His campaigns. I just watched a DCSW YTube video with a mustang and spitfire showing flames!!! He also did not like FU2 420 as My tail number, as He was in a band and did drugs. -
I have been waiting, along with many other Warbird enthusiasts for the release of the Magnitude 3 Corsair F4U. I am a 69 year old Nam Era Vet who lived in Schwetzingen, West Germany from Sept 1972 until March 20th of 1975. Just had My first Grandson, awesome ! 8K PC has not worked in 10 weeks, I live precariously through others flying the F4U Phantom Il Running 20 miles out at Fort Dix near Air Force Base I watched em take off in full afterburner mcguire AFB So I would like the latest and last best version of the Corsair F5N from 1950 as a way of saying sorry for making Me think I would die first before The F4U was released. Brain Tumors are FUN please hurry and thanks for making The Best Fighter/Bomber in the World clear skies Mike

How many regular working class people have bought every Map, jet, plane, Campaign ????? Size of TB space needed for all ? I spent at least 2K just from ED never mind the 8K on my PC to run it

How does the F4U Stack Up against the 190 and 109?
ctguy1955 replied to percydanvers's topic in F4U-1D
I am writing this without looking at any of the content above. Some of the charts I have to see. I know that all WW2 aircraft were upgraded over the span of years, but in 1945, 10 corsairs were built that had a Double Wasp engine that was supercharged and had HP much higher then any other Corsair. 2 crashed and some were sent to museums, but many were used for racing after the War, and could reach 500 MPH in level flight ( not sure what altitude, but it was high up where bombers are flying ). I think one of those could have beaten the Nazi Jets, never mind a prop plane. Hope the corsair has the option of a 4 bladed prop, as it is faster. Clear Skies Mike -
I do not think I ever had smoke. Engine Exhaust port flames I have on all Prop planes. I purchased the Campaign ( debden eagles ) because I saw it had flames, as it was made over 6 years ago. Ever sense, Ive had flames through the past dcs updates with no problems. Changing engine pitch makes the colors change and Purple flames are the BEST !!!! I had others criticize Me saying DCS brought flames back 3 updates ago. Someone reported me and You tube would not allow me to upload anything for several months and I'm paying for Premium. I hope You get them back. Clear Skies Mike I am not sure if any of these 3 have flames but look on DCS User download area and you will find Tracks that show the flames now dark pg p51 flight.miz p51 Paris Midnight.miz p5130 new OB.miz

all jets and planes have sound, right ?
-
I have been flying only the P51D-30 (until the F4U becomes available) and the Echo19 sounds were really great ! Now that the 2.9 release is on My PC without the echo19, the Mustang sounds just as good now ! Congrats to ED I have a really great 7.1 surround system with bose speakers and My Asus sound card is old but works great. Reflected mentioned not to mess up DCS with Mods except sound modes, as it messes up Campaign integrity. In keeping with the thread, no one else here mentioned anything about hearing the sound of 40's music playing unless I change manifold pressure to below 20. Clear Skies Mike

Been using it for 5 years at least. Newest version gave me problems so I use 1. 1.0.1042 build 7.1 I'm just trying right now to do a repair and it is not working as the build select area does not see the way to the program even though I have a green on folder path and saved games areas.

dcs.log.olddcs.log hope this helps, I have lots of logs as I had two SSD drives with mirrored copies and they both do not work now. I forgot to mention that I never turned off my firewalls until just now. Repair can only occur with admin Cmd Prompt I guess ?

I am sorry I messed up and wrote MB when I meant I get between 700-800 Kbps DCS Cust Svc advised Me to turn off my pc protection and use repair. I tried that on my own a week ago. I went to the library and I thought they had 1 gig per sec but they only have 24MbPS and a 2 hour max time window for sharing the libraries pc's. Because DCS makes you DL the 2.9 OB with one or both maps, it takes more time to DL then the library allows. I thought about buying a used laptop and finding a 1 Gig wifi area but I hope something can happen soon. Thanks for all the help Guys !

Hi Max, I have used it for years, but the latest update changed so many things around it will not work for Me now. I just totally formatted a 2tb drive and it still said not enough room to put dcs on it. I know there must be lots of people like me who live in the sticks that have slow internet. If only someone sold large updates on dvd on ebay or ED itself, I would gladly pay 10-15 bucks for it. I could upload screen captures of 3 days worth of failed D/L's over and over. I have spent over a grand on mods/terrains, never mind 7K on my PC. Having it not work really is a shame.

No silverdevil, I do not use bitlocker. I need to enable secure boot. After waiting: the last update made it and I was able to fly for awhile. So then I decided to update the other ssd version copy and paste and now both are having problems with many missing dll files. Happy Halloween to all

I am now on my 6th or 7th attempt. I have had no use of either ssd drive open beta versions. only another 20 hours to go and that is the repair. just the 9 maps are 362.9 gigs and then every jet and plane and You need over 2TB with missions and Track's I ordered a microsoft DVD "win 11 Pro" to update my win10 pro and I cannot properly change my security boot option so microsoft refuses the update.

Has the ability to restart a download from where You last stopped, now gone from 2.9 DCSW ? I am on my 3rd attempt and only after 2 days did it just give Me a ETA of 20+ hours to go. Tomorrow the town I live in is having a planned outage and My DCS D/L will not be finished yet. I have a 2nd SSD that has the updated version to 2.9, with all 9 maps (362.9GB) but I have to leave off 4 maps to have space to do the update to 2.9 I was not able to just copy and paste and have it update any faster. Thanks for any info or help Mike

This thread is old but history is forever... Just the 9 maps I have installed on a 1TB SSD are 362.9 GigaBytes. now with every plane and jet and other things, 2 gb SSD's are not going to be large enough. My 1988 Amiga 500 had the port on the left side for additional Ram, and was also a one meg hard drive. Grand Central Station in NYC and they told Me I would NEVER need more then that one meg of extra HD space. Too bad they didn't have a 44 year warranty on upgrades...
