good point, but there People around who do not frequently check the Forums. I for my self have been away from the Forums for quite a while. I dont say that its ED´s fault, your argument is absolutely correct. I simply thought that those kind of news would be part of any newsletter which I read every time when they arrive...anyways,everythings clear now and I know where to look when I want to know more than the newsletter might say :)

Thanks, thats exactly what I was looking for, now I know whats going on...thanks EDIT: I wonder why this actually quite important information has´nt been published via Newsletter? Why was it hidden within a thread?

Official one? I checked the newssection on the website and havent found any except the one from January, do you have a link about it?

Besides all the words that have been written about this matter, I´d be lucky to get some Infos about the F-18 Status again. Last time it was mentioned at January 29th within the DCS World Future update. I dont want to write what was mentioned there, but I pretty much believe that we will not see what was said there. I am long enough Member of this Community to know whats going on, but thats not my point. According to this Newsletter, I at least would be happy to have some Words on the Status, but there´s absolutely silence about it. It´s nice to see that WWII Content is growing, but those is beeing mentioned nearly every time in a News Letter. I dont really expect to see the Hornet this Year, but it would at least nice to know how they proceed with it. It also would be good to know if they would have stoped working on it for the benefit of DCS 2.5, to focus back on it once 2.5 is released....just a few words, to know whats going on there.

@MRaza, can you specify the exact technical details of your fathers PC?

He said he´s 15, and here´s the Problem I suppose. As much as I understand his Situation...life comes first. So my personal suggestion on this matter is to first finish school with the best graduation possible, then make an education or try to get a higher graduation like College or what not. I am sure that your parents will help you out if they see that he cares about his life. So he just needs to talk to them. I know that there´re people around who absolutely hate Computergames or even Games where its about war and such stuff, but at the end its a matter of negotiations. EDIT: Ok the first post has been edited meanwhile, last time I checked this thread he mentioned his age.

Hello MRaza and welcome to the Forums. First of all I´d like to tell you that you dont need to worry. By the Time you can efford an own PC which meets the technical requirements and you are old enough, the Game will still lack certain Modules. The A-10C will always stick around. Even though that the Warthog Module is meanwhile 6 years old, it is still an important module next to the Black Shark...because they have both been the first ones (with a Little gab of course). The questions that you should ask yourself are. how much Money do I Need to be "Combat Rady"? What you should have to fully enjoy the Game is the Game itself, a decent PC that can run the Game, a HOTAS Joytsick and Track IR. All in all you´ll Need roundabout 1150 to 1200 $ which includes the Game (if someone will give it to you so cancel those 40 bugs) a Gaming PC which dont necessarily need to be the best machine on the market. I have an AMD CPU and a AMD GPU, all in all calulate with 500 -700 bugs for a fully operational PC. Track IR is the only device on market that puts your head in Game and thus still costs 150$ (except the freetrack, but this one sucks). Last but not least you Need a HOTAS Stick. It dont has to be the HOTAS Warthog, the X-52 will be fine enough for the beginning. Have you already talked to your parents whether they probably can efford a Little of that Money and you´ll pay back later when you earn Money? This will motivate you to still keep focus on School as well ;).

provide me some details and I´ll do that for you...easiest way for you I suppose

short question...how are the Thrustmaster pedals in general? Are they worth buying? I also have the HOTAS Warthog as well, so will it provide me any advantage in this matter (instead of getting the Saitek ones)?

I had the opportunity to run that nice Piece of Software yesterday while flying with my friends and I´ve got to say that I´ve been blown away by its potential. I really wonder why the Devs havent implemented such a Feature by default, I assume it´s because they still are focusing rather on Singleplayer than on Multiplayer, well they might have their reasons. But fortunately there are guys like you around who take care about those things. It´s a real great Job that you´ve done there, thanks for all the efforts.

Thanks guys, I am slowly figuring all of this nice piece of software out, thanks to dbourne I did understand a lot of it, thanks guys.

will give it a try, thanks so far. I´ll report back.

Hello, a short question as I really dont know how to get further with this software. I have always been used to Saiteks Programming and Profile System, this was intuitive and it simply worked as it was supposed to, now that I finally got a HOTAS Warthog I wanted to create some Profiles for my favourite Aircrafts, so I studied the manual and went on, so far so good. When I run any profile so I´m recognizing that it seems to load infinitely, thus I do not get the device analyzer screen that is mentioned in the tutorial, instead I get this: this is the profile screen running and loading infinitely I tried to find some Information on the web, on youtube and in the Forums...I found a lot, but not that what I´m needing. So does anybody know what to do or can explain me the magic behind this Software?

thats all easily spoken considering that none of the monetioned peddals are available anymore on the stock marketplaces like amazon and co. I´d like to have the Saitek combat rudder Pedals...sold out, so I am looking for the Saitek pro flight Peddals...sold out, WTF? Why the heck can´t those devices be purchased anymore? Those stores who are still offering them cant really be trusted, and the reviews are proofing this..."purchased but never recieved"...it´s a shame.

Спасибо :thumbup:

Привет, быстрый вопрос. Я живу в Германии и здесь текст переведен с помощью Google Translate, schonmal жаль :) поэтому заранее. Я бы иногда мягко спросить, можем ли мы узнать что-нибудь о текущем процессе развития F18 DCS в этом году. Спасибо и приятных выходных еще.

thanks for your efforts, I pretty much think that you´ve checked the Videos available (linked) in the wiki? As the wiki is free to everyone, so everyone can add Content there. I havent been there for a while, but if you havent checked it so it would worth a try. http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/wiki/DCS_A-10C_Guides,_Tutorials_and_Reference_Documents

Thanks a lot for sharing your detailed view on this subject. Espacially the last part is somethings I worry much about and cant wait to experience in the same time. I nonetheless think I keep waiting untill enough experience reports are available to finally make a decision.

Just a question that answering could be interesting to answer a certain question to me. You seem to be way more HTC Vive Fan than an Occlus Rift Fan. What makes you sure that the Vive is generally the better VR Set? I am not asking because because I might be a OR Fanboy, I am asking because I just dont know which one to pick. You seem to be the one with the answer :D

Thanks for your reply @S3NTRY11

Hey guys, a short question as I havent read through all the Thread for my question. But is there already anythings known whether the Vive will be fully compatible with DCS like the Rift is?

Hello, I´ve put one of my modules on the map just to make a quick test as I´ve noticed that I have a selectable Mirage in the list I can select the aircraft and adjust the specifics like altitude, etc. I also can save the mission. Of course a crash of DCS occurs if I try to hit fly (because there´s no module installed). So my report is about a selectable M-2000C Module although its not purchased/installed

I cant recomment what you´re saying. I´m using the X-55 as well as I am using the respective Mad Catz Software. One thing is to be said. The Mad Catz Software is crap, but it´s making its job. You can easily assign functions to all three modes which is not possible ingame though. Even if it is a crap software one can work with it. It is just unintuitiv, thats all. According to the Device itself. I am sometimes missing the 4 way switches on the correct position. The X-55 has just 2 Buttons where I used to have my common slew switch on the X-52. This one turned out to be 2 way switch for up and down. The switches on the Throttle Unit are a bless and I would miss them if I´d return to the X-52. Even if the X-55 has its downs, one can say that it is a solid device where a simmer definately can take its advantages from.

no login at all or no login after installation of a certain module? You´d should provide some more information. what exactly happens when you try to login? Ideally you´d provide a screenshot of an errormessage if there´s one.

Lucky you, it so far did'nt for me. But I have'nt tested enough the last 2 days since I've plenty other things to care about. The day will come where I'll be able to play as well... Good to know that Win10 is no general gamebraker for DCS 1.5.
