Just a hotfix? They could've delayed today's release and combine it with an upcoming patch to make it look like a patch proper rather than a hotfix, and folks would then have whined about there having been no patch this Wednesday. Damned if you do, damned if you don't :doh:

Seems some people suffer from this while others do not. I've had this happen exactly once when they changed the underlying system a while ago, but other than that, no problems whatsoever. Now the question is why only a part of the player base sees this happening while the rest are unaffected...

Ok, seems to work, delete at your leisure. S!

Sig TEST - delete whenever Sorry if I'm daft, but there's no sig test board here? So have to do it right here. Here goes then.

The last I checked, they both overheat and you can push the P-51 throttle through the gate. You can fly at least a good 20 minutes on WEP if you've got sufficient airflow through the radiators. EDIT: and see my sig too about all warbirds getting their cooling reworked.

There was nothing the Western Allies could've done, apart from starting a new war against the Red Army. Stalin had boots on the ground everywhere in the Central Europe and those troops would've never left voluntarily. Certainly a tragedy and I'm not defending the USSR one bit, but this was the situation. What would you have done in Churchill's place I wonder?

Well the trees are really the only thing I'm not content with. The draw distance is way too short and the colors too bright, so they pop up under your nose and never blend in with the rest of the scenery.

So if I don't think this is a high-priority problem I should eff off? Nice. Is this how you behave IRL too?

This complaint again? Bah, just stay on the tarmac.

Yes, you've got that right. None of the servers are run by ED and the MP system isn't centrally controlled per se, apart from the server lobby you'll see when you start MP.

Man, this is f**ng HUGE. Just love to see other folks love the auld girl still. Thank you so much for all this. S!

Likewise. Would send a couple mils their way chop chop toot sweet.

Well, as a bit of a bozo I just bought NTTR for arsing around in an aircraft of my choosing ;)

The Mi-8 variometer can't track rapid VS changes because it's slow. Use the Doppler flight indicator instead. And yes, it's like that IRL too, so nothing flawed or incorrect there.

If you pull excessive collective the RPMs will drop and the generators will fail. It's an operator error and thus nothing ED can fix.

They must've been. An aluminium cylinder liner would't work, ever.

Yah, what Grafspee is saying there. Auto works per se, but not in every conceivable situation, meaning you'll need to switch over to manual open occasionally.

Tighter springs are just the thing if you're using a high quality stick such as the Warthog. With a common garden variety cheapo stick however, no go. You'll need light springs and some curves with those. And the difference is indeed profound. I'm using a beat-to-crap T-Hotas set here, and keeping it well lubricated with light springs and some curves dialled in, it behaves well enough. But I was recently over at friend's a couple of weeks ago helping him setting up the DCS Dora and tried my usual setup with his Warthog - and let me tell you, it was bloody ridiculous! The amount of curves I set up just completely murdered the responsivity because the feel and the overall stability (for want of a better word) of that thing is so much better. So it depends, but with a high quality controller even without an extension, you really don't seem to need any gimmicks because it behaves well enough as is. Just my £0.002 though, but this is what I found out.

Nope, 'cuz I'm gonna get the Li'l Shorty the day she is released. Always loved that burdie to pieces so she'll be a 1st day buy for me.

News soon is better than no news soon ;)

Seems so. And a first day buy for me as well it has to be stated ;)

IMO the Mi-8 is even better, but that's a matter of taste. Anyway, both seem to have been neglected for a long time already and that's definitely not a good sign. Can we at least get the lighting problems fixed please? Kind of sad that we haven't been able to use the beacon lately since the light bleeds through the fuselage :(

Folks, me included, mostly use curves because most off-the-shelf JSs have a much shorter throw than the real thing and you've got to compensate for that.

Well, just read the boards and you'll see what needs prioritized over stuff like this.

OK, that sounds more plausible. Thanks for the explanation 9L.
