This is an older video but wanted to post it in here for the viewing. Watch in full HD, Enjoy!.

Watch in 4K ~A~

Just having some fun with the ole gal! Made some new sound files and still tweaking a bit but for now enjoy the clip!. Cheers! ~A~ F-15C video https://youtu.be/XwXNcAKVNc0?t=1

Added a bit of flare and a couple more maneuvers and that's enough of this stuff! LOL

Be sure to watch on youtube for a better experience! 4K will be available also in a few hours. Cheers! ~A~

Removed

OK just getting back to it.... Yeah all the bindings are good. I think it's in one of the mods. I'll uninstall it and try again. I only have an sound mod and some added liveries so I'll remove those and see. Thanks for the replies everyone. ~A~

Im posting this here cause i looked everywhere for something on the issue im having with this plane. Every time i eject and the plane crashes i can not use the ESC key to exit. Nothing works and i have to use my task manager to end the sim and start back over from logging into DCS. I have 23 aircraft and NONE of them are causing this problem, none up until i loaded the 2000 in the sim a couple of days ago. I have your AV8 and it's an pleasure to fly. I really like that one. Is there a fix for this? and no it's not on my end. This is really annoying.

YUP!! Sounds make all sims come full circle. Maybe we could get some tractor pull events under our belts?? :megalol:

I already purchased the Persian Gulf map a couple weeks before you just released the last update. How can I get the latest map?? I don't see anywhere to download the update Thanks Alan

same issue for me too.

Thank You Mike I just reloaded the sim and now they work. The engines sounds are the same though. Gotta fix that.

First in the auto startup mode the right engine starts first thing... then it says starting left engine as the first order. Then there is nothing in the text about starting the right engine but then you don't hear the left engine starting you just notice the heat blurr while the INS aligns. Then the biggie... the idle sounds need to be fixed because it sounds like your flying at military speed in the air while it's idling and taxing on the ramp/taxiway. This is only from listening from the rear in external view. From the front it's fine. It's using the same sounds on the ground as the sounds in the air. This totally throws it off. Second thing is after setting the wing sweep to auto adn pushing down on the yellow handle to unlock the wings do not do anything based on the speed of the aircraft and when i push my button to go into dive mode or auto on my joystick you can clearly see the gauge in front on the front upper panel highlight the mode (MAN, AUTO) when i select either mode but nothing is working with the wings. I still have to go and look down and physically adjust the wing sweep. Another is the round Heading Bug adjustment knob across from the course rotory knob on the display behing the stick. In different modes the course knob works and i can change the course numbers by rotating the course knob on the right side but the heading knob does nothing no matter what mode im in. You should be able to set the heading bug that's displayed on top of the screen and it should rotate around to whatever heading you select but it doesn't. Just my $0.02 Other then that it's an very nice model. But PLEASE get that external sound fixed. :thumbup:

Thanks but I was just playing around a bit. Usually i stay inside the cockpit but it is cool to watch an harrier from the outside too.

Yeah the drive i had DCS on was about 3 months old and it was a finer quality HDD but it wasn't making any noises and always ran smooth. That was the very first thing i thought about actually when all that lag starting happening. Won't matter now though as everything is on SSD. Thanks for the reply and your suggestion. ~A~ :thumbup:

Windows 7-64 Pro ----------------------------------- Here's the thing... You have to have everything set up for cooling and how the air is cooling the system rather then for just looks. I built this system and it took a while to research designs of cases to allow the right placement of fans based on where the components were mounted for the best cooling possible. The key to any air cooled system is to have "Positive" air flow. That means having more air pulling out then the air coming in causing an suction effect across the components. Most cases today are designed for eye candy. Most people are drawn to how they look with all the lights but they don't realize that when you enclose a case in glass or have hardly any access for air to "MOVE" then all your doing is causing warm air inside to swirl around and nothing will ever get as cool as it could. Look anywhere online at computer cases... the first few pages are nothing but advertising eye candy to draw the customer in because they think "oh that looks pretty" no matter how little the cooling actually effects the entire system. Most don't get it. The key here is "Heat Rises" so on my system with the side cover in place... I have the 230mm fan drawing air in on the side, an 230mm fan drawing in from the front over the HDD's, two high speed fans on the bottom (one with the Power Supply) These four fans are sucking cool air inside while the CPU fan's, the fan on the back and the fan up top (another 230mm) are all sucking air out but at a faster rate then air coming in. This is known as an ram effect and it's the only way to get this kind of cooling with an air cooled system. Most cases don't allow this. I don't like water cooling, call me old school or whatever but there's just too much at stake that could happen if water comes in contact with electricity, it's not 100% preventable... sooner or later. Below are the actual numbers under load during an flight last night. ====================================================================

OK well I got the map running at blazing speeds now. Went and purchased an new graphics card. I still don't understand why the other maps were blazing speed with my old card but not Persian Gulf. That should of worked the same. I did notice that with my old card when I reinstalled the sim and then went into the PG Map... it was really smooth but I didn't have any other aircraft installed, only the default world aircraft and the map was great. After installing the F18 the lag was back. I took that plane out and then tried the AV8B, same thing, bad lag. I took that one out and then loaded my Flaming Cliffs 3 and flew the F15 and a couple other planes and the map was smooth as silk. This tells me that because the addon aircraft are so graphically intense that you just need more power to read the graphics on these planes. Just like when repainting aircraft for FSX Simulator... I save all my work in the 8-888 32bit format but most people run their aircraft in DX5 which is a bit less on the sim. The 32bit 8-888 format also allows me to repaint the skins in an 4096 size which produces awesome visuals but for some users it will cut down on computer performance so I can just guess that this is what was going on here on my end with these planes. I was right on the edge with the PG map and the high graphic addons i had installed. Anyway,... an new card did amazing wonders and now I'm happy. Case Closed. Thanks to all for chiming in with your advice and trying to help me out, I really appreciate it everyone. Cheers!! :thumbup:

OK so re-installed the sim, went into the settings and set up the options and loaded the frogfoot in default sim as you get with only the main sim and it all went fine and smooth as ice. All settings are turned up as before and all is running perfect. Closed it out and went to install the Persian Gulf map through the module option, it closed to desktop and begin downloading via Turrent option. After it finished the DL and went to install it then there was a huge error that something didn't get downloaded and it never installed anything. I went back into the sim to start again and DL the map again but this time I choose the HTML option and am currently downloading it now. I'll let you know if this one installs. ~A~

Yes points should carry over. Think about it, people who purchase your products are the bread and butter of your whole operation and are also why you guys get paid for your products so why pull the rug out from under your customers? (your most valuable asset) only to shy future purchaser's away from your products as in breaking a sort of trust between your company and your customer? This is not good business. I mean i myself just looked at my purchases in my history and I have over $500 in purchased software but about 1/3rd of that was just in the last 7 to 10 days.

Hell yeah! that's the first thing that caught my attention but more then that was also the vibration effect as they are taking off and the jolt once it clears the end of the deck. :thumbup::thumbup: Awesome video.

Yeah did all that with the temp folders and deleted the files. I'll try the repair now and then try the sim again. If that doesn't change anything then I'll just take everything out and clean out the whole sim and reload the original World. Then I'll install the PG map and load the sim and see what happens without any other addons and then work my way through my addons loading the sim each time with the PG map. Oh SNAP! where's my coffee pot! Time for more digging :gun_smilie:

Ive tried several things but not sure what you mean about "Repair". Is there a separate built-in repair option? I didn't see anything like that. I did uninstall it and then let the system re-download it through the module in the game and then it logged out and installed it again. The first time i installed it i used the torrents as thats the default download operation but the second time i canceled the download so that it went to the HTML download option and let it download and install that way but it's the same as before and still really bad. I don't get it... this is the kind of stuff that drives people nuts!. :doh: I mean everything else, every other part of my sim works perfect, just not this map. I would make a quick video but it might take all day just to make 5 mins of it LOL.
