Hello everyone. I think the Igla-S MANPADS are underperforming a lot in DCS. The 10M3 Strela hits much more reliably, even though the missile is from the 1970s, while the Igla-S is from 2004. That is a 40 year technology difference. Even if the Igla we have in DCS is not supposed to be an 9K338 Igla-S but a 9K38 Igla, it would still be a decade ahead in technology. The iglas are not able to hit targets, if the missile has to turn at all. I will attach 2 tacview files, if more in-game data is needed, i am happy to provide more.

Okay i see. All information i can give you that this didnt happen in 2.5 and that i also get those ring shapes that he has sometimes but not as frequent. Cheers

Hi everyone, currently i am experiencing two different types of graphical glitches under certain conditions: First: Black squares appear when i either turn my aircraft or look around Second: Flashy flickering when missiles are launched. I am using a AMD Vega 64 and a AMD 3800x CPU and have the latest drivers as of 9th of June 2021 Track file: flickering.trk AMD settings, sadly in german

I used it some time ago to export the MiG-21s Radar on a small old CRT screen i have, but im not using it anymore. So Awesome that you found this. Thanks for your help!

This actually fixed it! Now i get 120+ FPS! Thank you so much Flappie!!! What is this Setting? Cheers!

Export.luaHere you go :)

Im not certain if happened in 2.6 because i was a bit inactive, but it wasnt the case in 2.5 . If its necessary i can try to download the 2.6 version to check.

95 percentile is 16ms wich equals to 62.5 Hz

I turned it all off. Its wierd because my hardware is able to go to 100% and higher FPS but only when the game is paused. Anti-Lag is off, chill mode is off, basically every AMD setting. I can send screenshots if somebody needs to see the exact settings

I tested this instantly now, it still stays at exactly 63 FPS when i look at the sky. GPU usage is at 70%. when i pause the game i get 146 fps while looking up GPU usage goes to 100%

Hi everyone. I have an issue with my FPS in DCS 2.7 Open Beta. As soon as i join a game or even when i enter certain menus, my framerate gets locked to exactly 63 FPS. I have deactivated V-Sync in DCS aswell as the AMD settings. I also set the Maxfps in the Grapics.lua to 200 and also tried false. Im really suprised that changing my graphic settingss to something much higer doesnt change my framerate at all. Also: when i hit pause in a singleplayser mission, my FPS actually go up above 120. I just upgraded my RAM because it was full when i played DCS, and my pc loaded a lot of data into the pagefile. when i play DCS my GPU is at about 70-80% when i have the 63 FPS, my CPU also is no way near 100%, not even single cores. I dont really know what to do. I have a Vega 64, Ryzen 3800x, 32GB DDR4-3600 Ram, 144Hz Monitor, using TrackIR , no VR Playing in FullHD Thank you in advance. Edit: My system was able to go way above 100 FPS a year ago Edit2: When i pause the game and my framerate increases, my GPU goes up to 100%, why is it limited when the game is unpaused? Edit3: checked fullscreen optimisazion and dpi-scaling settings. all options dont change anything

id pay for this

I think his point is that the MiG-21bis module was modeled after a plane that was/is in a aged state and not in factory new condition, and with cleaning the cockpit he means its "closer" to the cold war aera. Sure he got the release date wrong because it was released in 2014 but i think you are not trying to understand what he is saying.

It still does not mean that the Cubans got the 93 upgrade, that was the point that was suggested. I would also be interested in the general opinion on this topic, so i have started a poll: https://strawpoll.com/dh7qf4of3

We actually know why they added them, and it was already talked about earlier in the thread. They were expecting to get MiG-29s but they didnt, and they had the launchers, so they added them to their MiG-21s Again we are not talking about MiG-21-93/97 or MiG-21 Bison or MiG-21 LanceR

Cuban MiGs dont have Bison or 93/97 upgrade, and we have seen the pictures, thats what we are talking about since the beginning.

You guys keep bringing up the MiG-21-93, i dont see what your point is there, because we are literally talking about just adding the R-73 like the Cubans did. Maybe go back to the first Pages of the thread. Also i dont understand why saying that its not as good (as in for example the Su-27) because the MiG-21bis does not have a HMD is an argument for not adding it. If you want a historic scenario from the 70s, restrict the R-73 in the Mission you are playing. You also would have to restrict R-60s anyways. What about players that actually want to fly a mission that involves todays Cuban MiG-21bis`s against a more modern plane? I think there are plenty of people that would enjoy being the underdog but would like some more capable missiles. Again, if you dont want them, restrict them on your server or in your mission. There is no disadvantage for you. Maybe let people enjoy the scenarios they want to fly.

Thats an interesting point, i have read that the Magic missiles are sidewinder rail compatible. Given that the Mig-21bis is basically able to shoot Aim-9s (K-13/R-13) it probably wasnt that hard to modify. Do we have any Data on how the Iraqis did it? I think this is an Indian MiG-21, but i dont know what version.

Im sorry but the Mig-21Bis module is currently in a really good state. Implying that it is broken is not reflecting reality. Most systems work as intended and M3/Leatherneck is pushing updates fast and is also to close contact with the community via the bugtracker. Back to the topic: What we really need is a reliable source that states what the Cubans exactly did. If they managed to install the R-73 rails with minor modifications (maybe a modified plug for the pylon) i think it should be added. If mission designers dont want it, they could just remove the capability like the RWR on the MiG-19P.

Hello everyone, it seems like the SPJ-Pod either has changed the way it is turned on, or it does not work anymore since todays update. When you turn it on on the AAP panel, you do not get any ranging info, and the jammer does not get out of the "OFF" state anymore on the CMBT page. Has anybody else noticed it or am i doing something wrong?

Thank you for sharing this. Sadly ive decided for myself that i won‘t buy any new modules until this is fixed, because i will not spend money on something that has a high chance of being unplayable for me.

I was referring to one specific one, not all ;)

We havent heared a lot from ED about this recently, i am a bit worried that this has lost their attention after a different issue was fixed for VR users

I just tried it in the MiG-21, with mirrors on and off. Happens in both cases to me, i might upload a video later.
