Currently we can create menus for all players, group or coalition. It would be very useful to have a menu for player so Combined Arms players don't have to share the coalition menu since this brings issues with all the players of a coalition because its impossible to filter. Also it could "follow" the player through multiple aircraft and it wouldn't have to re create the menu each time the player changes groups

Here's the .miz and logs. Player 1 was the player hosting and spawning in the pilot seat. Player 2 was the second crew. There's only 1 AH-64D and 1 Mi-8 in the airport with dynamic spawn. Player 1 joins as pilot for the AH-64D, player 2 joins as CPG. Player 2 leaves the CPG slot Now the join window is black and player 2 can't join anymore. https://i.imgur.com/RjhZ91E.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/ZnylGrn.jpeg With the Mi-8 Player 1 joins as pilot, player 2 joins as copilot Join window now is black for player 2 and can't join anymore https://i.imgur.com/xx0CNcu.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/v4urxrg.jpeg Test.miz player 1 dcs.log player 2 dcs.log

When spawning with dynamic slot, if there's only 1 AH-64D in base, the option to join CPG in multiplayer is blacked if the player joined and left the aircraft. With the Mi8 happens when there's 2 helicopters in the base. The additional slots on each aircraft are needed as additional units in the warehouse of the base.

The problem is still in 2025. Started cold, added some waypoints and comms, leave the aircraft and when rejoining crash every time. Landed, shutted down the aircraft on the ground and rejoined without issue.

I don't like the idea of many default liveries, it takes a lot of space and you can't delete them. HB made 30GB of liveries for only 2 aircraft that are impossible to delete. It's a waste of space specially if you don't fly those aircraft. It should be official liveries to download as mods though, so anyone who wants can install those.

The other day we employed the gun against a group of 10+ infantry. The gun in DCS is very under performing, we could see how the rounds impacted near the targets and they just ran like nothing, some rounds should have mada some serious damage. It was very funny when there was only 1 infantry and we couldn't kill him.

The FCR is not synchronized since more than a year now. Specially the elevation antenna, but also the ACQ. This makes almost impossible to use for the CPG and Pilot. The way to synchronize it is by lowering the antenna to the maximum and then raise it again every time.

The DCS F-15E is the only modern strike fighter with multiplayer multicrew.

After the F-35 announcement classified is not a valid answer. It was something we all understood all these years, but now is not an answer. If more powerful doesn't mean better then WHY AN F-35? There're plenty of other aircrafts to do. If its money the answer, an F-22 would sell 10 times more than the F-15C, although I also wouldn't buy it.

Why not an F-22 instead of the F-15C

So it will be a 2027+ ?

4 years and we still don't know which version of the A6 will be in DCS.

It's incredible the ED-Newsletters don't work as they should. 90% of the news are useless info there. Razbam didn't refuse the WSO AI. First - it was going to be a utility more than an AI since in the F-15E the pilot can do all the work. Second - they didn't/couldn't develop such AI since they have a dispute with ED for more than a year of not getting paid.

Sorry, I thought this was a forum, not a documented science page.

I don't know how effective are those TALDS IRL. If they fly like in DCS they could only be confused for JSOW, and JSOW have reduced RCS and as I understand TALDS don't so they are pretty unique and very easy to identify. In DCS the tactics are very complex because of each weapon flying with completely different characteristics and you need to collect data for each weapon and reaction in DCS, and you need to do this for each type of attack (altitude, environment, weapons). You need to do a lot of TOT attacks and train with many people. We practiced with TALDS/AGM-88C/JDAM and is not easy, there are many variables.

The fastest way is to not fill the decimals for the navigation waypoints, you don't need them.

I've been flying the hornet lately and noticed when landing on land runways it behaves really weird just before touch down. I've been flying the F-16C since 2020 until 2023 exclusively and its a really cool aircraft to land, you just add a very fast but also very short acceleration just before touching the runway and you smooth the landing very well. But when landing the F-18C it feels "wrong", like if the aircraft didn't have any or very tiny ground effect and I need to maintain the throttles beyond idle all the time because the aircraft just sinks to the ground otherwise. I can land it very soft like the F-16C but doesn't "feel right" to me, or natural. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, I'm using full flap.

Thanks, I'll check, I don't even use the A4, never used and forgot its existence.

It's been like this for some time now, about a year. The state of Combined Arms is really sad.

We have the same issue with our 5 servers.

What compatibility? If that's the problem they could easily add a new one. If you mean the individual helipads: The "Helipad Single" is as ugly as the "FARP" The "PAD Single" is very tiny for the helicopters of DCS, only useful for the OH-58D And the "Invisible FARP" well is just invisible so its like landing anywhere. What do you mean for FOB functionality? Fuel, AMMO, Repair and COMMS? ALL the helipadas need those services so you need to place them.

PLEASE, update the already old model and textures of the FARP. I don't even know if it changed since 2015 and with all the focus on helicopters now it really hurts the eye.

+1 for Dynamic Spawn on dynamically spawned FARPS, it would make helicopters much more useful on campaigns.

I believe the FUEL XFER FAIL is related to barometric pressure. I always change the pressure in my missions and I have this failure sometimes.

If you like the immersion, the F-15E is one of the best in cockpit sounds. Very realistic, not like Heatblur which goes the other way around with overexaggerated sounds.
