Seen from sky with high speed, the infantry aren't very visible. I only asked myself why ED has made WWII asset pack models of Flak or DCA with infantry around if these infantry aren't essential for the good efficiency of these AAA models in their detecting-firing role. On a heavily charged mission they drops unnecessary the FPS and the memory. To explain all, I've downloded many WWII templates airbases created by MrGoodnite for the Normandy 2 map. But these templates are including a lot of ED WWII asset packs AAA models and as these models are including many unnecessary infantry, using several of these templates drop dragstically the FPS and I wanted to know if the fact of erasing these added infantries changed the realism of the fights. So , I know now that I can erasing them. The animated weapons operators included with these weapons are enough for realism.

Thanks. That's what I thought too. But what a perfomance gain when I subtract them on heavy mission.

Hi Models of AAA with Assets pack included in DCS are putting 3 soldiers behind each pieces of DCA ( or flak). I've made the try after erasing these soldiers, letting just the DCA or flak with their operators included on the models and all seems to working well for all type of DCA or flak and the enemy planes are targeted and shooted when flying above. However I let the 2 german soldiers near all the kdo optical targeting system ( 1 for the kdo, 1 for the generator). If I delete these soldiers, do the models of flaks will working with the same efficiency ? And are the other DCA or flaks models working with the same efficiency since I've erased the 3 soldiers behind each gunnery pieces ? And in the same way, do we need soldiers behind the tracking light projectors ? Thanks !

In first I must congratulate ED for what they've done with de Tel Nof Airbase. Absolutly FAN-TAS-TIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, I would just want to know if they intend to report the same work on the Tel Nof airbase of the Sinaï map ?

No it isn't. And that's quite abnormal. Do the SU-27 or 33 have an unfonctional radar ? No ! So this plane is less complicated than the modern jets of FC3 and ED didn't implement the visor setting.

All is in the title Thanks !

ED, people wanting dots can have them in the state they are now if they want, but people not wanting them could have the possibility to disable them. But since the patch, it's not the case whatever the setting. For me in VR with HP Reverb G2, dots are totally unpleasant, big black points moving in the sky. You don't have to work about the dots consistency or making them acceptable for all VR materials. You have to work only on the capacity to switch them on or off. That's all !

Ok. I don't know what happened yesterday but it said that " no place on this airport". Now all is quite normal. Thanks !

Hi I' just see that there are no parking places for planes on Sharm El Sheikh Intl.

This night I've just read this message above and I had the same issues than Esac-mirmidon and I believed that my computer wasn't powerful enough to assume my very heavily loaded missions that I created for myself. So I've tried ansd it's the miracle. No more fps spikes each 6 seconds. Thanks !

Same for me, Normandy 2 works again. All has become quite normal again.

Hi I've just tried to launch DCS and its says that my Normandy 1944 module is desactivated. When I go to modules, I see it activated. What's the problem ???? OK, I see I'm not alone on an other topic. The Afghanistan map seems to have the same issue. ED you have to work !

HawIIanRyan: null A BIG THANK TO YOU !!!! THAT'S WORKING !!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, i respawn this old post to say that we need a new fix since the today's update. Please !!!!

Incredible ! The targeting system sees the boat and not the eyes. It's getting worse.

It's a pity to have this kind of thing on the best map of DCS World.

Hi ! As I have the supercarrier module, I don't know if the characters like the carrier Airboss or carrier LSO or carrier Technicians in the statics object "personnals" are available for people who not have the supercarrier module. But if these items are available for everyone or not, I would like to use them as infantry and not just as statics. As we can see them walking on the decks because of the Supercarrier module, you already have the walking model, so it's not a big work for you, ED, to make them available to use in the ME with walking from point A to point B.

Ok, I'll try this manner. Thanks !

I don't understand myself. No, I can have a good auto-hoover from the pilot place. I press the auto-hoover key, a yellow light appears near the clock at the left, the I press the camera slaving and a second light appears and all the lights become green. The auto-hoover is established and the helicopter is stable. No need to maintain the rudder. But after, the things are going bad. I jump on co-pilot seat. From this place, there is no possibility to bind a auto-hoover key. I must specify that I don't use a separate stick to control the camera to launch hot missiles. Before, a long time ago, that's how I did: I jumped on copilot seat after having enabled the auto-hoover and hidden the Gazelle behind a building leaving just the camera protruding from the top of the building, I used the stick for targeting and using telemetry after having switched the camera mode selector on manual. From this time, the joystick didn't act on the helicopter but on the camera. If I saw a missile coming or shilka bullets, I pressed the autohoover key from the copilot place to hide totally the helicopter, because when autohoover was OFF, the joystick switched automaticly in flight commands use., then after I lifted it again to targeting again and shooting after having switched the AH ON again. Sometime I needed to press a key to yaw the helicopter in the good angle. The issue today is that we can't use the autohoover key from copilot place and that we can't use the stick for targeting with auto hoover switched ON.

Hi. I have the L-39 since years and I havn't this issue until the last DCS update: On the ground, for taxing, the wheels brakes doesn't work correctly at all. I have affected a joystick key to use the brakes and when I press it, I can see the little handle for brakes moving on the stick. That means that my bind key is correct for the ground brakes. But brakes are working very bad, when they work and they don't stop the plane. For turning, I push the rudder in the direction I want to turn, when I've always done since I bought the L-39, then I push the brake key, and before, the L-39 was turning in the good direction, but now, not only, it doesn't turn at all, the brakes doesn't stop the plane, but, in add, sometimes, the plane turns in the opposite direction I want to go. Help needed please !

Did you see the difference between LV in DCS and LV in Msfs 2020 ? So, I don't ask ED to make towns as realist as Asobo is doing but a minimum would be welcome. Recently they'd reproduced the Paris of the 1944 year on the Normandy II map and I must say that i's aproximately realist. And we can find eiffel tower and other features making this Paris realist. So why they don't add features on LV like the eiffel tower or Bellagio fountains ? Because NTTR is an old map, many users are satisfied with a little and ED would need time to enhance LV to make it more credible. But time is money and I doubt that it will be new users enough to buy NTTR map today. I think that ED and their subcontractors have understood the lesson because some of maps released since NTTR are really more detailled, like the Syrian map in exemple which is for me the best map that ED has released. ( I don't know South Atlantic because I havn't buy it but when seeing youtube videos about this map, I'm definitely not tempted to buy it). And in the same manner, I'm very disappointed about the Sinaï map. I think that I got scewed by the commercial videos of ED. Tha's why, these official videos being absolutly well made to tempt the customer, from now on, I prefer waiting youtuber's advice.

Yes but it isn't a specific update. They will update all DCS towns with these new lightnings. A long long time ago, many years , I've already asked for better details in LV but the majority of users at these times, said to me that DCS isn't a tourist simulator. I believed that for them, a single map with airbases, some trees, some sand, some rocks will be enough to please them. After that, having the support of most of the part of their customers settling for the minimum, why do you want that ED would get tired to enhance the details of their maps ?

Obviously you havn't understood how ED works. The Nevada map willn't bring them money anymore. I don't think they will take time to enhance the map again by adding new items like the Eiffel tower or the Bellagio animated fountains. And they have the support of the big part of this community saying that DCS isn't a tourist simulator. So, with these 2 parameters, why working on that ?
