I agree it can be confusing at times. Perhaps in the future we can all work together with other 3PDs and ED to come up with a common definitive system to better describe a modules state. Thats what creative and constructive feedback will lead to when we all work together. Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

If it was the same issue then ill make my way down the list and add it but if it is different then it would be best to upload it here.

In Ecuador my friend. However the team is made up from various nationalities. I myself am from Canada.

Gentlemen moving forward if we continue to be negative towards each other, we will not progress. I encourage criticism and discussion. However, when we start hurling insults and begin talking each other down, it serves no purpose but puts us back where we started. Lets constructively work together to better our relationship.

Can you provide us with a TRK file please. Attempting to replicate some are able to and others not.

Can you confirm that this has been fixed in the latest OB patch?

can you confirm this is still active in the latest OB release?

Very cool, looking at this with interest

New trk files please Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

While I understand your view in the matter, it seems that this has become quite personal to you. Again, I extend the apology for decisions that were made and that we are moving forward with a fresh viewpoint and looking to restructure how we proceed with similar situations in the future. Understand also that miscommunication and misinterpretation due to language barriers manifested into some of these larger issues during my initial investigation of the situation. I have already taken it upon myself to begin reaching out to those that have been affected in an attempt to reconcile. I would also like to remind you that while I have unbanned and opened up forum chats again, it is by no means an invitation to continue the belligerent harassment of the RAZBAM team with personal accusations. If you would like to know what I'm doing with the team, I'm simply helping to better streamline feedback from the community to the team in an effort to limit misinterpretations or miscommunication in the future in order to avoid the issues that presented themselves in the past. Any and all further concerns I would like if you could direct them to me via PM so we can clear things up. Having a positive attitude towards change needs to happen on both sides in order for progress to be made.

TRK file required, pleas update.

@Dusty_13 can you confirm this is still present in the latest release?

ITER racks are currently implemented and can only carry one GBU. DITER racks, when they become modelled and implemented into DCS world, will be added when the DITER become available.

I took on the position voluntarily. As CM any and all interaction becomes and is my responsibility. Actions taken by RAZBAM as a whole was a decision by RAZBAM. Nothing should be considered as personalized or targeted. If RAZBAM believed it was taking the correct course of action to mitigate the situation with the community then that was what it was. As CM it is my responsibility to accept the decisions made and apologize for any mishaps regarding RAZBAM and the community. It is then my responsibility to apologize for what has happened on behalf of RAZBAM and work towards correctly assessing and realigning the situation to better support the communication between the RAZBAM team and the community. Like I said in my announcement, if anyone has any outstanding issues or problems regarding past events or situations, they need to PM me about it. I would encourage you to reach out to me personally either here or on Discord as, to me at least, this seems like you still have some words you would like to say on the matter and I'd be happy to try and address your situation personally. Digging up old dirt like this is not a positive way forward. I have acknowledged the issues that were present and have outlined a new approach to how they will be dealt with in the future with me being the point of contact for the incoming questions from the community and the outgoing representation for RAZBAM in the community.

IF someone can update this with a new trk file for us to confim this still works.

I agree, however, the location of the company is in South America, where English is not the primary language. which means that the definitions given by razbam can not be scrutinized grammatically from an English perspective. Their definition would suggest that all of the features are completely in the module but may or may not all entirely work. Again, THESE ARE INTERNAL DESIGNATIONS FOR RAZBAM. They solely tell the team where a modules progress is at.

Need a track file to look into this. Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Here, there, everywhere. Discord is usually faster, if its detailed or lengthy then here.

Good afternoon everyone. I’d like to take this moment to introduce myself. My name is Zack and I am the new Community Manger for RAZBAM. I’m married, expecting my first child in December, and serve full time in my countries Armed Forces. I have been part of the DCS community for almost 7 years now, its fair to say I’ve been around the block once or twice and have seen how things have drastically changed over the last few years as a community member. As I’m not great with FPS games like ARMA or COD I really grew to the simulator world which mixed the fidelity of an airplane with combat and it’s all I tend to play. I’ve met some great friends and talked with many people on things from Pit-Building to real world tactics. It’s been a blast and now that we have great addons like SRS and great MP mission servers, interacting with people from across the globe, combat simulation has never been better and will continue to reach new heights. Now to get into the real meat and potatoes of this announcement. We are all too aware of the global situation that is before us regarding COVID 19. First off RAZABAM would like to keep everyone who may be affected by this pandemic in our thoughts as we all move through these uncertain times. A lot of us are stressed, work or family is affected, and it can be hard to talk about these concerns when everyone is worried about what the future will hold, myself included. I like to be an optimist and look at both sides of the situation before making an opinion regarding any matter. During the last few months, some misinterpretation and confusion between RAZBAM and its awesome community were brought to a head. Words were exchanged, tempers flared, and relationships strained. This, coupled with everyone being on extra edge, lead to the situation I am sure you have all bore witness to. I believe that integrity is a key aspect to having an honest and trustworthy relationship. I intend to try and help rectify these issues over the next few months. As the Community Manager, I would like to extend my apologies for the issues that occurred over the past few months. As this is a global community, some things can be lost in translation and others misinterpreted, it seems that this was one of the underlying factors that created heated discussions and lead to problems. I have outlined a new approach with Ron (aka Prowler) and the team on how RAZBAM will be conducting itself with the community. Here is a brief overview: - For now; any questions regarding modules, upcoming releases, or requests for statements regarding the team/ statuses will be posted in the associated forum sections or asked to me directly in the forums or on the Discord. This will help alleviate the pressure on Ron and the team, allowing more focus on module bugs/ releases, thereby increasing productivity. - The decision to block commenting in the forums and removing individuals from the Discord was a band aid on a gapping wound. As of further notice, all chat will be reinstated and those blocked/ banned from the Discord will be granted access again. The forums and Discord will however be more stringently moderated. Harassment or any form of abuse towards team members will not be tolerated. I think people should have a voice and express it freely, but that is no excuse to start harassing the dev team, making their jobs more difficult, and distracting them from making excellent modules. - Should you have a suggestion, a concern, or issue, I implore that you reach out to me as soon as you can. Moving forward we will be adopting a more structured approach: bringing problems to the dev team via one source, dispersing the issues to certain team members, and releasing answers back to you from one source. Streamlining our procedures and responses via a singular source will prevent the confusion generated by multiple individual sources and, as such, prevent contradictory information being provided. I will be your voice and your concerns; I will also be as forthcoming and as honest as I can be limited only by NDAs or decisions pending Ron’s final say. - Early access, release and finished. These descriptors on a module has long since been debated and I would like to better clarify how RAZBAM classifies them. Note that RAZBAM uses these definitions as “milestones” rather than direct definitions to denote the stage of an aircraft in the development timeline, as ED does with their internal versions, and with the various beta and stable versions. They are purely stage markers.: In Open-Beta, or Early Access (EA), is when a module is out of closed beta and is being put through the rigors by the user. This is usually after closed beta tests by the team or external beta testers and is thought to or believed to be ready to fly. I could delv into more detail which I would gladly do should you request it but generally this means that the initial FM, exterior model, interior and basic systems that do not require extensive coding or testing can be added and released with the module. Usually this comes with some issues that the dev team missed or did not know existed. This is where the community plays a huge part in assisting the dev team by making us aware of these “bugs” which are then listed and worked on until we get to the next module phase. Released, release, or out of beta (OOB) is when the dev team feels that most issues have been sorted or are close to finalization. At this point, more and more detail systems that needed a more polished base can be added and implemented although they too need to go through various tests before they can be considered “finished”. While the modules can theoretically be used in missions or in MP this is by no means an indication that the module is finished. It may be” feature complete” (meaning that most of the features required to hit the milestone have been implemented without game breakage) but not considered a FINISHED product. The systems may be IN the module and while it may contain many complete “features”, it is by no means truly FINISHED. RAZBAM will, in the future, better describe a modules status to prevent confusion. Finished. With ED always improving and evolving DCS into a better and better flight sim, some things can and will break requiring a recode or start from scratch completely. Understanding that this will be a constant issue even for modules in EA or OOB means that timelines can, do and will get pushed back depending on the severity of the issue. So, to say a module is “Finished” is a broad stroke open to interpretation. It could mean that all features are in, but they may not all work as described in a NATOPS. The restrictions in place by militaries and governments means that issues like IIF or classified systems still in use need to be either left out completely or made into a more simplified form that does not risk man or machine IRL. If further detailed answers regarding definitions are needed, then I’ll be glad to work on an extended post dedicated to that entirely Again, these definitions are purely descriptor titles for use by RZABAM to define a modules status internally and is in no way a representation of the modules ACTUAL status. I, as RAZBAM’s Community Manager, will do my best to better bridge the gap between you, our amazing community, and the devs hard at work to bring you some of the most exciting modules to fly. As I work with you and do as much for you as I can, I expect to be treated as I treat you. I will do what I can, where I can. Understand things take time, as DCS is ever evolving, and I only ask for patience until solutions are found. I would also like to let you know that I have open lines of communication between leading ED team members to help further prevent contradictory statements in the future. It is my hope that this turns a new page in RAZBAM’s books and paves the way for how we interact with you in the future. I sincerely look forward to talking with all of you and being a part of the RAZBAM team. Lalalala Lalalala, Zack (aka Elmo)

Hi Ginger. Can you walk me through the steps you're taking? If it can wait until the next OB patch the 23/09/2020 as this is being written and check again. If you could also post a trk. file that will help.

If anything we can get together on the discord and we can both go through it all in one sitting. Some can take left side, someone takes right and someone else takes center. Then its less work for everyone and gets a list to the team faster. Well wait after the next update and re-evaluate Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk
