I was expecting the P-51 to look really weird with all those modern weapons but it actually looks like it would've had most of them.

It aims to make the cockpit more realistic and close to an aircraft that has been used. The "harder to read" gauges have slight fogging up happening. It is a very realistic mod, they are not impossible to read but if the sun shines directly on them it can be more difficult. I love this mod, makes the F-15 look great imo.

http://joint-force-and-elite-tactics.enjin.com/forum/m/20105429/viewthread/14961435-diveplanes-unofficial-soundpack Go here to download version 2.9.2, it works with DCS 1.5.4, Diveplane was banned awhile ago, I am assuming this is because he moved over to Lock On Files. https://www.youtube.com/user/diveplane11 Here is his youtube channel. http://www.****************/profile/180365-diveplane/ http://www.****************/blogs/blog/19-diveplanes-blog/ Here are his LOF page and blog.

This is most likely not going to ever be fully completed. He started this 2 years ago and has said nothing on it since. The product he created is great, I love it but don't expect a fully finished product after 2 years of nothing. Unless its DCS F-15E, then BELIEVE!!!

I personally haven't used it but I would assume it is just giving a desert look to the Caucasus map.

If you want one that will give it thicker smoke you would have to find the LUA and edit it. If you go to DCS World/Config/Effects/ParticleSystem2/gunSmoke you can change the particles limit. I do not know what this does so experiment and see what it does. In the LUA you can also see "normalSemiSphere2.tga" which is the texture that the gun smoke draws from. If you wanted to give it a go, you could download a program that can edit TGA files (or converts to them) and edit the TGA. This TGA is in DCS World/Bazar/Effects/ParticleSystem2. Photoshop will open TGAs, looking at the TGA I do not know how it will work if you edit it. Editing the LUA will most likely just make the trail longer (following the trend of editing the wingtipContrail LUA and its effect on the game). Hope this helps, FireFox500

There is a flying version of the F-16V, it is not in production, that much is true Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

I think they are trying to conserve funds as we don't really need those updated eagles. The current F-15Cs, and Es are just fine and the F-16 got a big overhaul to become the F-16V Viper. Air superiority really isn't an issue right now and if ever it becomes an issue I'm guessing they will start thinking of something new or upgrading. War or threat always gives rise to new technology, ex: WW1 and WW2. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

I guess it's because the Raptor is already on the way and all of them are built so really not worth it to upgrade an "old" aircraft if it might cost more Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

Too bad the SA in F-15SA stands for Saudi Arabia and has some top secret stuff inside, but that bird would put to shame to anything for years to come, even the Hornet.

If you are using a mod to make an aircraft you do not have flyable it will not let you into an integrity checked server. If you are using JSGME simply remove the mod from your game while you go onto a server and then put it back when you want to use it outside of a server. That is what I do with my F/A-18C mod.

Lol

Diveplanes sound mod has a VERY powerful and accurate sound engine, it sounds similar to this. However, the sound of passing jets doesn't sound as good as it could imo. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX2v9GzXYSYDrdcbOTziE-w Here is a link to his YT channel so you can check out some of his amazing work, I refuse to fly without this mod.

Didn't try those, thanks! I will be out for the next little bit so I will test it later

The files must go in that folder so they get put in the game. If you cannot find them you may want to change the country. I myself have not used it but I will give it a shot right now. EDIT: I cannot give it a shot right now as all links (including torrents) are now all down and broken. I do not know why but these links have always been having issues. I suggest going to DCS User Files, selecting the File Type as "Mod" and scroll through, there aren't many (if any) civilian aircraft, there are a few aircraft tho. http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/?PER_PAGE=100&arrFilter_pf%5Bfiletype%5D=5&arrFilter_pf%5Bgameversion%5D=&arrFilter_pf%5Bfilelang%5D=&arrFilter_pf%5Baircraft%5D=30&arrFilter_DATE_CREATE_1_DAYS_TO_BACK=&CREATED_BY=&sort_by_order=TIMESTAMP_X_DESC&set_filter=Filter Here is a link to the page with the 2 options selected.

The torrents work. If you are not familiar with how to use torrents here is a quick rundown. 1. Download your file (it will be a .torrent file) 2. Download and install a program called BitTorrent 3. With that installed go to your downloads and right click on your .torrent file you downloaded 4. Click on "open with" and if on Windows 10 hit "more apps" and select BitTorrent from the list 5. This will open the file in BT and it should start seeding immediately, if it does not try and look for something that says 'start" or something along those lines. If you have any additional questions feel free to ask!

The avionics are there because they are all flyable I believe and it is much easier to make an external model and just port in a cockpit than to make a new cockpit that looks decent.

Anytime!

http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=167480 Here is a link to a page with a Boeing 707 Mod, it's about as close as you will get. Scroll down and pick either F-15C or Su-27 avionics, this will just change what cockpit (or hud, I have not used the mod so I am not sure) you are using in the aircraft in the download. There are skins as well.

A trip to Ukraine would be awesome, it's a dream of mine. Will you be posting pictures of the cities and such or just the museum scans?

AH! Thank you! So before I go external I push pause, go external then I can unpause and it will stop the TiR external control?

TrackIR controlling F2 mode I recently installed my DCS onto an SSD and now my trackIR is active even in external views, this did not happen before. Can someone hint me at which setting I have to change and if I messed something up. When I get rid of "TRACKIR_YAW, ...PITCH, and ...ROLL" in the controls it fixes it but then I can no longer use TrackIR in or out of cockpit. DCS (after the new update) keeps telling me "head tracker disabled" on the top right corner. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, FireFox500

Hawks, Albatrosses, Aviojets and Aermacchis, I see one hell of an airshow in the future. I wish you great luck with this project, cant wait!

Thank you for the link but I am still confused. Is it designed to provide an expanded radio menu? I see it says ATC and GCI but I am still lost. I am sorry for all the trouble, I am just having a mental blank.
