The Problem is that ED has shut down the Wiki, thus all the Information is gone. I have "complained" about that already and NineLine said that if Interest is still there, so ED considers to reactivate the Wiki again...but honestly I dont think that they will do that...unfortunately. Too bad for all my wasted time that I put into it...:cry::cry::mad:

Just saw the Video, first I was blown away by the sound...until I read the describtion....now I wonder what the sounds will be like on the release/polished Version. I think that its dangerous to enhance sounds, especially on those highly anticipated Modules. The actual result might piss off people who expect the original to be exact the same like the enhanced.

the Spam issue has always been a Problem. I remember when I was working together with EvilBivol-1 on the old wiki, when I was updating the whole structure to the latest face. Wouldn´t it be possible to implement an effective Registration barrier to avoid having spam bots registered? Like an Administrator activation, or somethings similar? I´d volunteer to do that. I was working a lot on it anyways and some others have participated a lot as well. May be I can gather a few Folks who are willing to create a wiki supporter Group, who cares about it.

I´m a bit shocked? I wanted to check the Wiki and noticed that it was removed from Support dropdown menu on the website. I then tried to enter the wiki by one of the urls I have saved and noted that it seems to be closed/removed. This is the direct URL to the Wiki: http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/wiki/Main_Page The Wiki contains lots of very important information for actual and new Members of the Community. Sure, it wasnt the most up to date wiki, but it have had certain pages with important information. I for my self have put hundrets of hours to give the old Wiki a new face. Others have participated in this but in General the Wiki was a great ressource for all types of questions. Was it removed? Will it return? Where has it gone? And most important, why has it been removed?

thats exactly my point and my problem as well. I really hope they come at least with an update prior X-mas.

I wonder whether it puts Cobra and co into some stress by reading our release assumtions or will it make them ROFL of our stupidity? I wonder why they just dont tell us...

I came here as I saw the today (or yesterday) flown by Graywolf and Grimes, and was sure that we´ll have a release date now...but noooo...still nothings.

are you referring to the Title of the Thread? If so, please forgive me, I´just noticed the Cockpit to be the same as the F/A-18C that we´ve in DCS (from what I could see so far), thats why I simply identified it as such. But....you could tell me how to identify it correctly, that´ll be a great help :)

Thats nice to read and I wish you all the most fun with it...but you´re not the one I asked as you´re not the OP, so why did you answered anyways? By the way, I wonder why the OP hasn´t answered yet at all?

Welcome to the DCS Community. What I´d care about first is proper Hardware. So what type of Joystrick do you have? If you´ve just a Basic Joystick e.g., so no Top noch Module what make any sense, as you would´nt be able to fully operate it (without fiddeling around with hundrets of Key Combinations). The Saitek X-52 (Pro), X-55(56) would at least be required to fully enjoy the fun of flying a DCS Module. The Best Choice of course would be The Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog. Next Thing to care about is TrackIR. It´s highly recommended if you dont want to use your Trim Head or the Keyboard to look around. 1.) Proper HOTAS Flight Deck 2.) TrackIR (or VR) Can you cover these both Options already?

Graduation and how Student Pilots might feel about it, serious background though.

yep, it has worked. Thanks :joystick::pilotfly: EDIT: Only thing I wonder is why the Tomcat does not show up on the "my orders" Page within my ED Account page? After I entered the code on the redeem code page I got the message "Coupon was successfully redeemed!". It is really somewhat confusing. How does this all work out now actually? EDIT2: yeah, I got that Notification as well, so will the Tomcat be available for me on EA even though it is not listed on the "my orders" page? Hmmm...may be because it hasnt been purchased on the store, that would make at least some sense...somewhat at least :)

I would´nt state it that sarcastic, but since there´s 2 step Activation available via mail or phone, one can easily use PayPal without to worry about security.

thanks, I had the same question in mind

That depends on in which environment you´re playing, SP or MP. To have the license for the Tomcat makes it possible for you to jump into Pilotseat or RIO seat...as long as you play solo. In MP you can just pick one slot, either Pilot OR Solo...the other crewmember needs to have a license as well.

I was confused as well and also got the message about "key is not known". Too late I saw that the Cat will be available early winter, thus I think it´ll be available on x-mas. I really hope that once the EA goes hot we wont get that errormessage again. Otherwise it´ll be a hard time for heatblur to sort all that complains out.

what the first image is not really representing is that the armament Switch has to be set to the upper Position. The positions are off - safe - armed, on the image the Switch still is set to safe, that might have confused you. Also make sure to select an amount on the dial to fire rockets. According to the targeting pipper, I never fire weapons to far away Targets as this makes no sense. Thus I´m aiming the Center of the pipper for the guns and the upper edge of the pipper for the Rockets, and that works Kind off well...depends on the range of course.

same for me, all I have are the artefacts around the edges, although I strictly followed the readme. I also changed the MASKSIZE value to get rid of the artefacts but loading time was increased on Game startup rediculously long...each time...I started DCS, thats why and because I havent seen any improvements, I uninstalled that mod again. Thanks @Kegeteys nonetheless for the long time and work you´ll defininately have put in it.

well, thats interesting, I´ve checked their website several times but never saw that countdown...maybe I´ve always been on the store page...thanks anyways.

I´m not sure whether I missed that, but was there already set a time of day on october 7th?

Yeah, that reminds me on his A-10C Tease back in 2008 or 2009 in a Thread I dont really remember anymore, somethings about Desktop backgrounds...guess what Wags has posted there...correct his nice Desktop with the A-10C executable...holy that Image caused great Attention :). But I´m derailing...sorry, back to Topic :music_whistling:

Oh, nice. Thanks

Hey there guys, since quite some time already, I have been looking for something similar like your Squadron and I´m happy that I stumbled about your thread. I´ve read through your Initial post and have already visited the provided URL´s. But bevor I send an aplication, I´d like to ramp up some questions, that concern me and my "flying preferations". I´m from Germany and I´m working in 3 Shift, which mostly includes late- and nightshifts. Given the Situation that I´m scheduled to work for most of the official Training days, would it be possible to keep up practicing even outside of those official Training days? So to speak, will those ones "count" if I meet the requirements in order to get the wings/qualify? Such a Scenario is just an assumption, but its somethings I´d like to know, as my schedule is covering between 1 and 3 weekends regulary. secondly, I own three of the meanwhile 4 DCS Helicopters, I do not own the Mi8 as I have no interest in it (I used to have it but gave it away to a friend who loved it even more (via ED Support), thus I´m certain about it). My current Focus rests on the Huey which I´m flying a lot recently (whereas I still have to master some topics). Will there be a place for a Huey Driver only? (which doesnt mean, that I wont get Hands on the other 2 ones). Is it actually posible to become a dedicated Transport and Support Pilot? Thats something I´m interested in the most.

Is this Mission part of the Package only, or can it be purchased/downloaded seperadetly?
