Knock-Knock

Im quite intrigued about such a parameter for the weapons in DCS actually, that they have a risk of just going dud on you. And when not flying, you could entertain yourself with threads about given coalition bias, hehe.

Could be the MiG-21 that has the bug, since there are different 'heat' values for afterburner on and off.

Very good read, thx for sharing. That was a lot of Sparrows gone garbage, and a lot of misses.

Indeed, and Wags said next Hornet updates roll out May 8th.

You 'just' have to be very accurate with all the parameters. Dive angle, release height and a release speed being the most important ones. Deviate with one of those and the low drag bombs fall short/long. Add to all this, wind. Does not take much wind to alter their flight path, be it crosswind or head / tail wind. Since wind is such a big factor, then I note down wind direction and speed, and when preparing for my delivery or deliveries, I set my HSI course needle to wind direction. Gives me a better visual on how much I have to compensate for wind. With about 3-4 kts crosswind already, its enough at a 2000 feet release, to push the bombs off target by about 30 feet.

That nose art though. Quick google. Donna Ewin was a 80's glamour model.

Well there is this one: ..\Mods\aircraft\F14\Docs Not sure how up to date that one is, compared to the online one?

Ah, excellent. Thx. I had totally abandoned watching replays in VR, cause it was immensely nauseating without that trick.

Like just going F2 and F1?

Oooh, as a Dane I can only give this my :thumbup: But, 80-90% of the featured terrain is pancake flat, like Normandy flat, so that part is a bit boring.

Hehe yep, that gets you sick real fast :) Isnt a specific module issue, is a general DCS thing. Happens in all modules.

Was this post, regarding the Tacan volume: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3401346&postcount=7

Tacan volume actually works. Cant remember who it was, but he/she pointed out that initially before it has a station tuned in (range and direction showing on HSI), the Tacan volume has no effect. You have to wait for it to be tuned in, range and direction showing, then you can adjust the volume. So it will beep during its warmup phase with no effect of the volume adjust. Now if the volume should work during warmup? Beacon, I believe that was in 2.1/1.5, so pre-deferred rendering.

Oh hello! Man I love shiny birds :thumbup: Will you be going polished alu all around? Wings and hardpoints?

This should be on everybody's milk cartons and launch boxes :)

It does indeed, and very nice touches with the chipped / worn of paint :thumbup:

+1

Cant see why. They are already dedicated on it since the 19 release, and they have stated that they wont begin work on the new projects, until the Harrier and Mirage are complete, starting with the Harrier. So there is a dedicated push to finish the Harrier now.

If MAC helps secure ED's future, and thereby enabling them to produce even more modules, maps and features for DCS, then who are we to complain.

Oh Im very excited, plus I just finished dinner :D

SA-5 and IAD's... Excellent news :thumbup::thumbup:

You dont need 100 active. Maybe need 100 placed, but you only randomly spawn (on mission start) say 20. Pilots wont know where they are, but will know they can be down there somewhere. Risk it or go high.

I guess randomly positioned IR launchers and man pads would force us up, at least for the A2A. For strikers etc, Id still stay down in the mud, but since I wouldnt have to climb now and then and circle the same spot/area, as in A2A combat, the chance of IR launchers tracking and shooting, is limited.

:thumbup:

Using Game Flight Mode (under Options, Gameplay)? Read somewhere it causes, or can cause, the shaking and blackouts in the F-5E3.
