there is a thread asking for release of SDK. I wouldn't go so far, as many correctly noted, this would open gates to hacking and misuse. What is absolutely frustrating is the fact, that after almost every .x.y update mods stop working. ED, please tell us, are we just customers and should just swallow what you cook, or you consider us partners, as many people from the DCS community are contributing with their mods, skins and missions greatly. We would like to know why mods are broken almost every time you make new .x.y version of DCS, is it on purpuse or is there a systematic approach to support modding in sight? Just look at Flight Simulator series - for the last 12 years as it was abandoned by Microsoft it was kept alive by vast number of contributors, both payware and freeware. Is there a hope, you will finaly release a version, which will be stabile in terms of modding content, or we will see more of disregard of modding community? DCS and many parts of it are in constant development i.e. in constant beta. Many modules are unfinished for years. We took that on board, we swallowed early access in order to support you. I personally own many modules just out of support, I rarely fly them. But at the same time I feel sorry for people, who are making great add-ons for free, and they see them not working after updates. That is frustrating both for them and for us, the users, or customers, call us whatever you like. As one of the posters in that SDK thread pointed out - modders are working in line with ED, not against it!

looks very good and that you are having fun building it.

perfect! thank you.

yep, and 100% louder cracking sound on ab - that is mig-21 sound signature. I remember watching them take-off in our airbase, the noise was bordering on pain.

thank you for that. I feel like puppy. My eyes were opened twice in two days :D

eye opening video. Thanks GR!

@BlackLibrary - what I ment with my post is - if you decide to do a particular model, I'm willing to purchase, or help purchasing 3d model if you need to buy it (unless you are modeling them from scratch). No quid pro quo from my side (hehe)

you are crazy :) in most positive way possible

we would buy the 3d model, not finance the making of the model

has it been done yet? Looks very nice and they do have some liveries :)

https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-2070-vs-AMD-RX-5700-XT/4029vs4045 a found 1080 ti on ebay for 300 €, quite happy with it.

were these created from scratch, or model has been puchased first? If the latter is the case, I'm willing to donate for next bunch

I forgot about mipmaps...you could be right! thx

Reflected - maybe Skatezilla can answer this one - I would suspect, that the metallic and non-metallic parts in the 3d model are different bodies, thus enlarging the texture doesn't help. Maybe you should enlarge the texture for metallic part for few pixels and add dialectric texture there. I'm guessing.

well, that exactly. Sorry for not being clear.

the strange angle of the lerx mislead me...eh.. :)

0:21 Eurofigher Typhoon?

is this the mystery plane? my money goes to Eurofighter Typhoon...

pardon my ignorance, but would it help if there was option for VR and non VR cockpit. The difference would be, that non-VR (meaning flat 2D, even no TrackIR) would not project HUD info onto the glass, but rather render it flat on the flat surface (not slanted as it is in real life), so everything would be visible from any angle at any FOV?

just saw the 2020 and beyond video. NOW WE ARE TALKING! :) I saw many things in this video, which please me very much in terms of suspension of disbelief. Good work ED!

any chance of doing Yugoslav Sabres too? They would look lovely with your template.

glad that you are ok. Keep up the good work
