nope :D

yup ive noticed it too, i wrote it up in the other NVG thread, but i find if you zoom in halfway and then look up, so as to have the shkval screen at teh bottom of your peripheral view, you get the best illumination... however, i really think this is a bug and i hope they fix it soon :D

i guess every forum has to have one... :(

maybe because the xbox version's graphics are of lower quality? here's a comparison with an xbox version vs. PC version, even though the PC used is top of the line, check out the xbox graphics as compared to the PCs...you can see that the quality is inferior, my guess is that the xbox rusn it better because its of lower quality in general, which is optimized for the x360 http://www.gamespot.com/features/6202552/index.html?tag=result;title;0 I have a similar rig, intel e8500, 9800GT, 3GB ram,. and i run the game on high, with absolutely no slowdown or frame drops

first of all, if your PC dates from several years, of course the Xbox360 has better performance, but compared even to today's mid-range PCs, the X360 is lagging behind.

without wanting to hijack this thread, i realized that the shkval screen will display brighter or dimmer, depending on how zoomed in you are (the pilot's view, not the shkval zoom)... it happend in the 2nd night mission of the first campaign, by gradually zooming out, the shkval showed an illuminated target, but if i zoomed out completely, the shkval would turn dark adn it would be hard again to see anything... yes, the illumination drop was done, so i assume the bright instance is the correct one?

9 months after black shark? oh wow, hopefully that's september..around my birthday ;) ....then i'll know what to ask instead of god-awful sweaters ;)

complaints@kamov.com i think you should email them

Heya, I appreciate the effort guys! Keep us posted!

Good tips, I was flying the second mission of the 1st campaign...and I was shooting off my rockets like a drunk high school kid at prom....very bad...very messy... :( I'll have to practice with these tips in mind, thank you!

Hello, here is a very minor bug, I discovered by accident - i searched these forums to be sure there wasn't already one reported, but if there is, sorry for the duplication. Bug Description: Pressing the Esc button pauses the game and shows the in-game menu. However, it is possible to unpause the game by pressing the Pause/Break button. Doing so, unpauses the game, but keeps the in-game menu appearing on screen, while the game is running. Steps to reproduce: Stop the simulation by pressing Esc Unpause the game by pressing Pause/Break button Look at screen: the game should be running and the in-game menu should still be onscreen, blocking your view. System Configuration: P4 Core Duo 3Ghz 3GB Ram nVidia 9800GT Saitek X45 Thank you!

lol, thnx therion, i had something similar (7-2-6), i guess it was the fact that i didn't know when to start firing it, how far out from the target. because I imagine dispensing it too early could also attract the attention of the enemy?

Argh, I was just doing the South Ossetia Pirates Mission, when I got blown out of the sky by an Igla.... All that long journey to get there...and as soon as I spotted my targets..bam...i was a dent in the side of the mountain...my wingman was already dead...he crash at the peak of the mountain, between waypoint 2 and 3...so no one else was looking out for me :( What setting to you usually use for preemptive flares? And how far out do you start deploying them?

I am not surprised! :D Congrats ED!! :D to many more I truly hope!

Cool! it's when actual helo pilots say stuff like this, that I appreciate this sim even more! :D thanks wags and co.

not really

I dont know, I remember, (God knows if I can find the exact thread), but Wags said that the ground stuff will be upgraded for the A-10 model. To what extent exactly, I dunno, but from what I understand they have a scalable technology that will continue to grow (similar to Valve's Source engine that keeps getting new features every time they release a game built on it).

Im convinced that with the A-10 module, alot of the ground units/terrain/trees will all be upgraded! :D they have a steady base engine, now, the world is their oyster!

correct me if I am wrong, but its starts "warming up" when you turn on the Shkval/instruments power switch (lower left panel), right?

agreed! if DCS was a woman, i would come to a knee and propose marriage...but i guess flying the ka-50 is the closest i'll get to that dream ;)

coool :D im assuming that's how it is in real life? what about reloading time?

AirTito!! YOU TEASE!!! :smilewink:

thanks! :D I will have a look

Hello, I am still confused a bit about the differences between DTA and DH both in the PVI, autopilot and the HSI. Can someone explain what the main differences are, and why would I want to switch between them?

Aha! I see here in the diagram on the website that it is internal to the helicopter and probably not at all visible from the outside, so I guess no RL photos of it? http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?lang=en&end_pos=1630
