Yes! I wanted that! I saw your work in progress on the other thread. Thanks!

Happy to have you here, compatriota. That would require a paid expansion for the module or even a different module because of the sheer amount of new stuff. Our FAB F-5s EM has entirely new avionics outside Northrop production, another radar and that's just skimming the surface. EMs also carry the Litening III and a jammer pod that are not currently in DCS. A lot of work to be done (still an understatement) and other projects would naturally assume a much higher priority for ED. (F-15C, MiG-29, F-35...) There are so much content potential for the F-5, it is ridiculous indeed.

Hi, @demon702. See my track. Fly the instant action for the Hornet called "Weapons Practice" in Caucasus map. Turn JHMCS knob to 'on' -> Set A-G mode -> Open a FLIR page -> Look outside and SCS Forward -> Segmented Ring Apear -> TDC Depress (Throttle Designator Controller) -> Flir will lock onto the area you designated perfectly. To move the flir you have to press SCS to the FLIR screen direction, example: FLIR is set on the Right DDI = SCS Right. If I look away, the Flir stays where it was designated. Only the ATFLIR updates live the diamond designation as you slew it, afaik. The one on this track is the Litening. To demon702.trk

Fascinating, I've learned a few things here, thank you. I stand corrected about the rest. Thank you. ED's stance doesn't look as convincing. I couldn't read/verify the: "World Airpower Journal, Vol 25, 1996". "PEACE HAWK: A CASE STUDY OF A FOREIGN MILITARY SALES PROGRAM AND ITS MANAGEMENT", good quick read.

Ok, I don't know about the wags quote but the rest holds ground. But a few things here: I'm struggling to find info for that. If any source is available and post able here, it would be good to see and substantiate the claim that is dragging for years now. Did the E really done that from the factory? Those upgrades were done much later after those Es were fully delivered. I too would love some mavs and AAR, and especially 4x A-A missiles. I'd love to have the AAR, as my country did own the EM variant with capability of carrying A-A (fox 1 or 3, I don't remember) missiles under the wings, Litening III pods and jammers along with complete avionics overhaul. That variant would be crazy wild (absolute dream) to have in DCS, although would diverge by a lot from the initial E model. I'd love to read more about the Saudi F-5Es, but those upgrades were done after those Es were in active duty. Likely is my personal #1 wish is for the F-5 module to have a expansion pack for many of these variants. I still can't fault ED to make the bare bone 5E which is used in Red Flag and you never see an AAR probe in them, for example. Having said that, I dislike any resistance to make the other variants available either, even if that means a paid expansion pack to pair the price with other more complex modules to reward the work done on the new integrations. Happy flying out there.

Why isn't the module called F-5N instead?

The variant we have in DCS didn't carry missiles under the wing. Only overhauled variants did. (perhaps inacurate). This discussion comes and goes since the module released. I'm all for new variants to come (paid pack) for current modules, especially for the F-5E, though. It is a very special module to me. It would suffice a Tiger III variant as an 'expansion' for me, personally... or even the 'S', or 'EM'. Others would also be very much welcomed, but the E we have never had the capability of carrying missiles (A/A) under the wing.

Have you reduced Visibility Range to Ultra or Lower? On your Log file it was 'extreme'.

Radar screen shows hollow symbology for friendly RWR signals as correct, but not the SA page which shows radar signature ID for friendlies. Track and Mission Files Attached. Hornet Friend No ID box issue SA page.trk SA Page Friend No ID Issue.miz

Parked Cores 2025-03-31 08:59:38.821 WARNING EDCORE (Main): CPU HAS PARKED LOGICAL CORES (this can be source of stuttering and reduced performance especially on hybrid CPUs with P/E-cores) See: https://www.dannymoran.com/windows-cpu-core-parking/ Turn down your visibility range to Ultra or lower if unparking cores doesn't help. Extreme vis range can cause weird frame drops. Turn off Mods. Make exclusions on your AV of DCS root folder and DCS inside 'Saved Games'.

I will do it today when I have the time. Thanks for the heads up.

On the SA page, the function inside the 'Sensors' to show azimuth of friendly contacts on the RWR with hollow center or "no ID" is not working and it is showing radar ID like it is a hostile. It can mess up situational awareness pretty badly. Even with [RWR] ALL this used to function with hollow circles inside a triangle for friendlies RWR contacts. Something changed that this behavior is correct when missing some sort of datalink info? Apologies if so. Friendlies F-16s inbound from the East. I'm Hawk30 under the nickname of 'Feliverick' off the coast south west of Wujah al Hajar. I've tripple checked and SA page still showed me ID from that F-16s like they were hostiles.

hmmmmmm, strange you don' get those stripes. If you end up testing with that GPU again, try DLAA? cheers

Remove any overclock made on the GPU if done so. For a good measure, also on the CPU. Bring everything back to factory clocks and see if it goes better. If other games are also wacky, it is a sign of something broader. With DDU? Try with a complete driver wipe with DDU software if you haven't done so. (easy google) Well... if that's DCS: See if deleting the 'fxo' and 'metashaders2' inside the 'DCS' folder at 'Saved Games' fixes it. Do that regardless when you have time. Usual path for that DCS folder: C:\Users\<your user ID in windows>\Saved Games\DCS

Did you make tests on the same scenarios? Weird how?

Were your DCS in offline mode before upgrading windows? Rename the DCS folder in 'saved games' to something else like 'DCS_Old', and try to log in again. If renaming the 'DCS' folder inside 'saved games' doesn't fix, I think you should contact support. Typical path to that folder: C:\Users\<your user ID in windows>\Saved Games\DCS

Nvidia here. I'm sure I wasn't going crazy: Roughly on the same spot you took that Hornet shot. F/A-18C Hornet Instant Action, Free Flight,Syria. F-16C Viper Instant Action, Free Flight, Persian Gulf. Nvidia, DLAA on. It seems to occur on the intersection of the Clouds shadows and the coastal shader/effect thing that makes up the shallow waters appearance. I've been seeing this for years now, doesn't matter the aircraft.

'LCtrl + F11' will turn your current POV position to the 'F11 free camera'. W A S D for moving the camera just like in a FPS videogame. Q and E for up and down. Mouse to pitch and yaw the camera. You can also look around with Track IR but the axis of movement for that camera is governed by the mouse look.

No. It is ground speed. Above 15,000ft is better to refer to Mach speed. Try to set mach of .75 for high orbit. If the AI still sinks, try .79 to .82.

Click on "Get Licenses"

Perhaps: DCS website -> profile -> Under Steam Account: Get Licenses. This never happened to me, so it might be it or not. TF-51D is free, though... there shouldn't be any license to it afaik.

Intel here, 12600K. I did this recently to keep every core unparked. I think I got rid of the few stutters left I had in DCS. Last flight with the F-15E and its ground radar was remarkably smooth, but it also can be a placebo effect. All I know is that, resource manager in windows doesn't state any parked cores anymore even at idle. I hope this helps once and for all. First link on the description has the step by step with the correct path through the registry editor.

This also happens with Nvidia GPU and DLAA.
