Again, I will not judge what is wrong or right. I will not play the white knight for any kind of bride. I just want people to be some mediocre kind of constructive...

Okay, this is a post misleading people by intent. Why? Why do you do that? There is a vast amount of information, that would at least tell you to be careful of any(!) judgement. Anyway, you have made a decision. Your statement does not help one bit. Why do I say that? Look, our common goal should be to get Razbam and ED to finally sign any kind of agreement to implement said settlement to come forward with a solution acceptable for any of customers. Toxic behavior does not help one bit. So, my suggestion is to step back a bit and let ED and RAZBAM actually do "things" without any bias... What Aapje said. There is actually nothing more to add.

True. Somtimes, at least. But he will find what he is looking for...

You can certainly look for sources like reddit...there is much to be found over there. But take everything you read and/or see over there with a grain of salt...

Yes, a supposed settlement was indeed reached a long time ago. The problem, however, is that none of it has been implemented yet. And that's exactly what ED is saying here. Well, I don't want to delve too deeply into any conspiracy theories here. You can google them yourself online. The real problem, however, remains. Apparently, no payment has yet been made to Razbam, if various supposedly well-informed "sources" are to be believed. Here, too, however, I urge caution, as usual. The fact is, a quick agreement would benefit us all. And let me mention again at this point that I have purchased all Razbam modules, so the whole thing is in my absolute best interest. However, from experience, I no longer play the white knight for the wrong bride...

This cannot be emphasized enough. Especially the part regarding RCS and a hot target. A lot of people cannot get their head around this very part when working with the APQ-120. Keep all of this in mind and the APQ-120 will show what it can do.

@MYSE1234 Hey bud, can you please take a look at the files included in the "HUD font size mod"? They do not seem to work anymore with the current version of our Mirage. Something must have changed as the HUD is not displayed anymore using this mod with the currrent version. Thank you in advance...

This does it. Thx bud. I had this problem for the first time in my life since the last patch, my DCS wouldn´t even start anymore even though my system is absolutely up to date. I do not even want to speculate what might be wrong here since the last patch but your solution does it. You basically made my day, bud. I owe you one...

Before I decide to pre-order the MiG-29, I need an answer to the following question. Does the MiG-29 come with all Radar and IRST modes available at EA release or not? This question is absolutely decisive for my purchase decision, since I am absolutely unwilling to buy any new module that goes into EA with only half the radar modes available and will only be at an acceptable level in two to three years. Sadly, I have seen this too many times now. So, simple question, since other developers actually managed to achieve this at EA release. Is the functionality of Radar and IRST at Early Access release complete or not?

Thank you for finally making it possible for "Request Awacs Declare" to be available as a direct input. It may only look like a small detail on the side for some. It is tremendously helpful in PvP now. And ultimately, it is so much more pleasant not to have to click through the Comms menu anymore. Simple and efficient solution, that's how I like it. Well done, Aerges.

So, after a day of intensive testing after work, I would like to give a brief contribution to the evaluation of the DCS Iraq map. Appropriately, I am currently in Arbil on official business with the German Air Force, which is also part of the map that has just been released. In short, the city with its centralized ring layout is beautifully implemented in DCS, I can actually confirm that here and now. ;-D To be more precise, the entire map is actually a statement that speaks for DCS and its future development. Take a look at Lake Thartar. Simply brilliant. The map shows a new technology that is unparalleled. You have depressions, you have ravines and mountain valleys... plus slight elevations and depressions in the terrain. Plus the sensational, new fog system, which creates a simply beautifully implemented atmosphere even in the AUTO setting. Everything is there. And everything is implemented in a way that has never been seen before. I have never seen anything like it outside of military simulators. And the performance is still absolutely top class. My computer will be 4 years old next year. Time to upgrade, sure, I know. Nevertheless, DCS in the current version, but especially Iraq, runs beautifully smoothly on my computer. Please just look at the region between Iran, Suleimaniyah, Kirkuk, Arbil, Bashuhr and Mosul. It simply cannot be better. That's a 10/10. Sure, the map still has a way to go, I don't want to fool anyone there. But it is already a definite recommendation. Clear points of criticism here are night lighting, the road network and transitions in the landscape. The water color of rivers cannot stay the same either. The water color needs to be programmed to be more of a green-brown color. But what can I say... videos say more than words. So please just watch the performance yourself in my video, I have prepared a somewhat longer video for you that should actually cover all questions about performance. My specs are pretty much rubbish these days...the computer is an I9-10900 with 32 GB, plus an RTX 3060 and luckily an extremely fast Samsung NVMe with 4TB. The performance is really good though. But please take a look yourself...here is the link (it's currently uploading, so Full HD might be available a little bit later. Thx for your patience. ;-D) : https://youtu.be/Xyo7mCy44sc **Edit: In the video I fly the Mirage 2000C. ED, if I had one request and one Christmas wish for you, then please ensure that this module is never restricted in its range of functions, but remains exactly as it is now. Please take care of this, no matter how the situation with Razbam develops. Thank you.**

So, after a day of extensive testing on my system, a short maneuver review. I have to say, DCS not only looks incredibly good after the new patch, the performance is also sensational. I just flew a short circuit in the new F-5 around Cyprus on the Syria map and even my wife stood there in amazement. I take this as the ultimate indicator for confirmation of visual beauty, by the way...! ;-D Yes, what can you say. I am happy. I just wish the F-5 in particular would get a few more features. Hey, I mean, at the end of the day I would have even added an extra $5-10 to the actual price for Mavericks, 4 Sidewinders, a new radio and VOR/ILS. Personally, I would like something more to come. A big request in this case! And please ED, please do this kind of rework with the F-86F and the MiG-15 too. The two modules definitely deserve such a rework. With that in mind...have a nice weekend everyone and have fun with the new patch...

Sure, here you go... https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/de/files/3305860/

A short debriefing on the revised F-5. First of all, I would like to thank you for taking a look at the somewhat outdated jets again at ED. The F-5 has turned out really nice. The cockpit and exterior model look really good. And if I may say so, the skin for the Austrian Air Force is really cool. Thanks for that. BUT: the rework should have included a new radio and at least the VOR/ILS system. Unfortunately, as a package it is a bit thin. And what I personally find worst of all...the radar still uses the old and unfortunately unbelievably ugly clutter model. The sweep isn't really pretty either. And that is even more noticeable now with the new and really nice cockpit. You can't leave it like that at ED... at least you have to rework the clutter and sweep. There is now even a MOD that does it better and makes it much more beautiful. Unfortunately, there is a problem with the IC when using said MOD. So please consider to improve this. Otherwise, a big thank you for the rework.

Pic from the real jet. No bug...it its realistic.
