Might be an issue with the FC3 package as I own the planes with separated purchases throughout the years and haven't had this issue. My 15C, MiG-29, Su-27 and 33 are activated. Does the module manager on your end see the individual aircraft on the 'available' tab? (the one where you prompt it to install.)

So, as the update got released, what's the verdict?

This is more akin to an RPG than to military operations. I believe Goetsch was referring to the base "sides" the mission begins with. Currently DCS only supports 1V1 + 1 neutral. The neutral is useless for combat and only serves for traffic intended to not be attacked by anyone. In real war scenarios this is different, example being the last Syrian civil war. DCS should support more sides/coalitions/teams than Red vs Blue.

What an utterly dishonest reply. You already know how useless is a bad reaction to something no one has control over.

Where does it say it is fundamentally prohibited for multiple unforeseen results in software development in 24h?

ED doesn't announce a date because of the risk of delay: People complain ED announce a date regardless of the risk of delay: People complain when there is a delay ED announces rough estimates close by with the disclaimer 'everything is subject to change': People still complain when there is a delay They only care about getting something that doesn't exist yet. The patch wasn't ready. That's the bottom line. Make expectations after the patch is uploaded and the patch notes are published. It is much better for your health, ...like some folks really cares about it right...? Here I am waiting for the Kola and South Atlantic updates to go live and be reviewed in order to pay->download->play them. Waiting for weeks now. Better ED to take their time. Imagine if there was a AAA publisher behind this and all we get is broken patches with 1 month fixed date no matter what QA says. There are examples all over.

Exclude the whole DCS root folder from your AV.

The more the merrier, but I rather fully embrace the analog gods and go back in time with the variants instead of forwards. Digital MFDs feels... distant. But early cold war, man... is an entirely different kind of flying....altogether! Cool footage and material from OP, though. I won't kid myself, it would be nice to have those too, regardless.

Make an exclusion for the DCS root folder on your AV(s) -> Repair DCS -> Log in.

I gave it a go with the F-15E with the fix mod a few days ago on the heaviest scenario I have and noticed no performance impact. It was performing just like before afaik. I didn't know it 'could' have any performance impact before reading through this thread. Thank you for Budgie creator for giving the bird back its....life, basically.

eh... know what? Good luck trying to find the issue. I'll look to help people elsewhere.

Are you guys running any injector in the background? I tried many different settings to get close to that image example but I was unable to reproduce. Tried MT and ST executables, anisotropic filtering to 16x through the control panel. DLAA OFF and MSAA on; DLSS as well. I remember having that issue in Xplane 12 with an old GPU at the time with a similar cloud rendering system. Curious about it.

Rename your 'DCS' folder in 'Saved Games' to something else like 'DCS_OLD' and try to log in.

Likely jamming/ECM emitters contacts somewhat far away. https://f4.manuals.heatblur.se/systems/radar/air_to_air.html

Given how great of an actor he is as well as in the voice department, it would be the perfect match.

Currently stated at ∞ months to release.

Hi Mahar17. I just tested it and I could open the bombing table and close it several times in a row with no crashes. Could you share with us the mission you played (if it is single player) and your PC specs along with how much pagefile is allocated?

IDK. The sky can be cluttered with missile smoke and the performance impact is pretty much non existent, same goes for carpet bombing. Surely something can be done with fewer smoke particles than a single R-27 smoke tail. Standing besides a sam site while it launches missiles just feels like something is missing in the visual fx department. It doesn't need to be replicated at 30nm away. Just something to see within 1 or 2 nm especially within a couple 100s feet away.

This is half correct. You can press TDC but after the slew, you'll be in INR mode, afaik. I'm not sure about this mode as the symbology differs from the manual and it should be only while slewing, besides I never get the cross to appear when slewing the pod. If you press again the SCS switch to the DDI direction you used to SOI the pod, you'll cycle directly into the SCENE mode where it is always ground stabilized and unlocked for slewing. TDC after only for designating the new TGT. Page 228 of the manual: "Tracking Modes The ATFLIR is in one of the following tracking modes at any time: • INR. This mode is active when the pod is being slewed. It maintains pod orientation relative to the aircraft by using inertial rate data from the aircraft." INR is relative to the aircraft stabilized by its INS. So it will naturally drift over the ground. To avoid this behavior completely on your workflow, press scs once again to the DDI position as you do to select it in order to jump to the SCENE mode. From there you can slew the ATFLIR as you wish. No TDC needed. I don't know if the behavior is a bug as the INR symbology differs from the manual. I don't get that cross at all. I don't use INR at all so, how I manage the pod is unaffected. I'd wait for someone who knows that functionality to chime in.

If it is so, great news. Is there any source you can show if it doesn't bother you? Many thanks.

Given how the numbers are baked in, I'd doubt it. Same as the F-14A/B by HB. Probably the most disappointing thing in the module for me, for good or worse. Its liveries are massive already. I'd appreciate dynamic bort numbers.

Source? The pre-order announcement, the one made before anyone pays anything, doesn't even have a picture of the Kuznetsov. Where is the intention? Is there a source for that affirmation or...? https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/newsletters/25ce7a8ee98775a8fa89a82d8f2fc2bf/

You're 100% correct. I registered in my memory the Kuznetsov being free with the 33 but all was included with Supercarrier. It was a long week. My bad.

Options -> Gameplay -> Allied Flight Reports. The AI does have chatter, but it is limited.......but they do have it.
