Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this trick but if you line up the orange circle as shown in the picture with the centre of the basket on the tanker you will connect almost every time. The red circle is for when you are refuelling in a corner which is a constant 10° bank (between the two bank angle indicators at 6:05 o'clock and 6:30) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RT0rf7P9Xhl6msAYzbEAwNQZg7JKtqsz/view

I apologise for not having a thorough knowledge of seasons, we have 2 here. Wet and Dry.

Wait so they sold a map for full price when you can only use it for 1/2 the year is what I'm hearing?

Hey there, Not sure if this is a bug or something still to be completed so could an admin please move it the correct place if I didn't already have it there. Currently, you can't set the Normany Map to anywhere below 10°C which is really disappointing as it's a European map without snow. I have looked through the files and ME options but you can't drop it any lower than that. Love to know if this is still in the works or not intended, if it's the latter that is really disappointing.

Hey guys, Just went sightseeing and saw a weird water texture near the castle, I have attached a few screenshots that should show the issues clearer than I can explain

Got you a track of an air start mission that shows it working as I would imagine it. FA-18IRMavAir.trk

I have the same issue, I just taxied and then landed with an 8m/s (15kts) 65° crosswind and I was getting thrown around like a rag doll both on taxi and roll out. I know other people have this issue as I've seen them slide into the grass while not paying attention.

Understandable but should the transition be instant or should there may be some time for the seeker to "focus" on the sky and washout slower? Also when I did the air start maverick training mission the washout didn't happen.

As requested. Hot Ground start using the F/A-18 Ready at the ramp mission. FA-18IRMav.trk

Does anyone else have an issue with the AGM-65F getting washed out when looking at a clear sky then refocus when they go back to either the looking at the ground of something that blocks the seeker FOV.

Actually, after reading through the NATOPS, So this isn't a bug it's just a quirk

I know how to bypass GPS alignment but what I am after is INS Gyro drift to be modelled.

I've noticed that in the hornet that your standby altimeter does not always match your hud altimeter. This should not the case. In a test mission with the hornet spawning at 24,000ft, the F2 altimeter shows 23,992ft; the HUD altimeter shows 23,650ft; the altimeter gauge shows slightly less than 23,500ft. I've attached the track file to show this issue. The barometric pressure is 29.92 with no winds. I have noticed this happening no matter the environmental factors. FA-18AltitudeMismatch.trk

Well GPS is somewhat modelled as in missions dated before the GPS was operational the Hornet will not align.

Is there a way of turning off the GPS network and ensuring that if you align through INS then INS drift becomes a part of equation. Also is it possible that GPS weapons like JDAMs and JSOWs are also affected by this?

I would love to see that INS Drift is implemented at some point to add realism in a no-GPS world type mission. Additionally, it would be great if this was implemented in other aircraft when they don't have a way of confirming their current position GPS, TACAN update, WP update, etc.

A report?

When flying a mission I told my wingman to refuel from a tanker. The issue is best described in pictures rather than words. He refuelled fine except for the position of the basket in relation to the probe.

Definitely looking forward to seeing this become a reality.

From my little knowledge of the C-2, should it be entering the carrier break at 150kts? Also it's whole approach into the break it looks really wrong.

Hey Newy, Just tested the mission after this latest update and it the statics now work in vanilla, not to sure about modded yet, so I'll let you know the final result but thanks for the first fix.

Cheers, I'll attach in the log files for the C-17 static mission that we used to test on the dedicated and normal servers too, to see if that'll point us in a direction. C-17 DCS Logs.zip

We just ran a mission with static C-17s and some ground vehicles on the same server, no mods and still ran into the same issue of not being able to see static aircraft. The same mission was ran on a non-dedicated server and it worked fine. So either is a dedicated server issue or we have a dodgy install on our hands but that should've been fixed by the repair and cleanup right?

As requested here is the DCS.log (in a zip because you can't upload log files apparently) from the server after a repair and cleanup. dcs.zip
