Relax guys. Maybe the moderators should merge the last 2 sub forums. The need for Redfor planes is real if not urgent.

For sure it is no where near official news, but it's kind of like "what are those F5 doing there" You bet with me that the A10 will get a helmet mounted sight ? :)

DCS World Weekend Updates - August 11th, 2016 It is in the campaign script in game. It's not a video. I think he was referring to somebody who did a walkthrough of the different missions. Play t"he enemy within" and you will see :)

I doubt that, many of those old Soviet planes are not used by Russia and now belong to disintegrated states or countries that moved to NATO and sold their secrets. They are as confidential as the Mig 21.

Because things aren't changing and we still see no interest from devs to do those planes

F5 is feature complete but has a few of them. The Mirage is still missing a couple features but as of today it has more features than the F5

Mirage is a great module from the most customer friendly dev. It's very capable and fun to fly and fight in it. F5 is also good but get it in sales if you can afford that.

The Enemy Within campaign features Wags as a wingman (or flight lead don't remember) and hinting the the A10C may get helmet mounted sight. I'm pretty sure that they are developing it for both

DCS World Weekend Updates - August 11th, 2016 The ground radar was said to be a bottleneck. Has it been resolved? Or is it put on hold waiting for the new terrain technology in 2.5? It's a nice update but ED will be pretty busy with DCS 2.5, Spitfire and all the still missing things in the Hornet. I put my money on mid 2017. We will be busy with a finished Mirage, F5 vs Mig21 duals, and maybe a Viggen. I will survive it.

I can store your Mirage for 5€ a day, I reimburse the difference if you find cheaper. Deal?

I know a dev that should get to work and bring us multicrew in their 2 Helicopters!

get well soon. The CL can wait I guess. But I wonder how the floodlights could be available within the next couple of hours :D

I rarely tried everything before giving up 200€. I put a minimum setup and never acheaved more than 45 FPS with my quite good hardware. also the bulkiness of the Vive was a problem after half an hour for me. and yes, I couldnt increase the pixel density in DCS. as I play only DCS i didnt need this room experience that should weigh in every decision for those who want it. this is my pure opinion

hello fellow simmers, I wanted to give my feedback about Rift vs Vive to those who are about to purchase one. I am writing from work and I was really keen to give you my opinion about both VR headset. I will keep it very short: First I am not a fan boy of any. In fact if I sit on the computer to play I fly only DCS, before DCS I was never interested in VR and I am a late adopter. I bought a Vive back in June, in germany it costs around 950€, that's more than 1100$. I didn't care about space usage but I still went for it as I don't want to wait to be delivered when I order. I was slightly disappointed by the DCS experience. I have a very good setup: i7 6700K, GTX 1080, 32 Gb RAM. I had without VR very solid 120 FPS and even more. With the Vive I was getting at best 45 FPS at high altitude only. But that wasn't the worst, I was very disappointed by the resolution. I simply couldnt read the gauges. I assumed that it was simply the VR technology as of today so I decided to live with it. What made me lose it, was the weight of the headset. I simply couldnt play as long as I used to with TrackIR. I quickly got uncomfortable with the weight and of the thick cable coming out of it, add to it audio headset. Once the Oculus became available and because I ONLY play sitting I decided to sell my Vive with a loss at 750€ and bought the Oculus for roughly the same price. Jumping from one to the other was in DCS was like day and night for me. The headset is a lot more comfortable after 30 min flying, I was getting more than 60 FPS most of the time, in cities 45! And most importantly I could read all the gauges! I believe that the lenses and software support in DCS are better in the Rift, but this doesnt matter to me. I just care about the user experience and the Rift I have a true VR experience in DCS. I wont fly without it anymore, and I dont regret a second exchanging the Vive for the Rift. These are my 2 cents, I hope it will help any potential buyer who would mainly use the headset in DCS. have a nice day. PS: I posted the same in the Vive thread.

Excellent work!

please enable the eclaire to fire! would be great against Pokemons!

there is a lot on their plate as you see.

The Viggen isn't anywhere near release and the F14 is even farer. Thanks for the update, it is always good to manage expectations! :)

I am issues above 1000m and I dont see ground clutter.

It's a pity that ED is favoring Oculus over the Vive especially that Oculus hasn't been able to deliver. That's why I went for the Vive

is there a way to zoom with the Vive? it s so hard to ID those tiny F5-E!

The radar of the Mig is bugged again now so the R3R aren't being used with their full potential.

So is TAS working now? I asked several times but fellow forumers all said that TAS hasn't been implemented yet. Zeus, could you please clarify?

I know that every release of new modules require DCS patches, but that doesnät mean that the 21 will be fully functional. Patch after patch it wasn`t.
