I'm not, not after i fixed my RAM issue:doh:

Because the stick will be far forward of center at 200kph...the weight of the stick will be pressing forward, and i would like to know if the FFB is strong enough to counteract that.... The MSFFB2 has a really light stick with the 'deadmans' switch....but I have modified mine to have a CHproducts Fighterstick on top of the FFB base...and it is strong enough to handle it. Also, can the optical 'deadman's switch' be disabled via software, or would i have to tape/paint over the LED's?

Thanks Ruggbutt, great review!! There's only one thing i want to know..... Is the FFB strong enough to hold the stick in position when trimmed in the KA50 while doing 200kph?? Right now there is only one stick that does that out of the box; the MSFFB2........... Unless the answer to my question is in the affimative at 100%, this is a purchase i will never make. Looks like a great Hotas at a reasonable price otherwise, tho!!

Which is the old trim and which is the new? I dont know which one to check off!

HaH aha haaa!! That is awesome! more pics as you complete the project please!

Yes, the yellow tint may not be for everyone...and different monitors will show it differently as well! You can change the tint to the colour and tone you want with a paint program...or even change the black/white to be darker or lighter...

Great stick Hannibal!! Thats the suncom stick you found, right? Great, simple and looks very professional!

I'm bumping this thread because I just confirmed that this mod will now work in Fullscreen mode...(after the 1.01 patch is installed I guess!) I still noticed a mild FPS drop, however some people may want to give it another try! Modman compatable links: http://www.mediafire.com/file/gljyoyko4hu/ModMan HDR v.2.0 Package.zip http://www.mediafire.com/file/2kmqyczn4zw/ModMan HDR v.2.1 Package.zip Again, the 2.1 version is the one with the colour tint/palette...it is the one i personally use.

My local Londondrug stores had some copies but are sold out! They went fast, glad i was quick!

Maybe the patch fixed the issues with it?? Do you have the fullscreen box checked, connos??

Still one copy of DCS:BlackShark @ LondonDrugs in Chilliwack BC!

never did figure it out....affinity works, but not as well as it does without the mod enabled. And you cannot activate in windowed mode i believe. Anyway, most did not appreciate the fps hit, although I only noticed a 2-5fps hit......it all depends on the system i guess. Here are the only files I have of the packs i put together. Guess i deleted everything else...Modman compatable. http://www.mediafire.com/file/gljyoyko4hu/ModMan HDR v.2.0 Package.zip http://www.mediafire.com/file/2kmqyczn4zw/ModMan HDR v.2.1 Package.zip I dont even remember what the difference is, but i think 2.1 has the light tint.

I have experimented with many of the ENB .dll's on his site. Some work, some don't....some allow you to add a color tint for effect! If you would like i could dig up all my old files on this and give you more info on which ones are good and bad. *some are better for xp/vista users. Here is an example of a yellow tint...makes early morning look more natural i think!

Yes!! Thank you very much for the new flares...much needed improvement!!

Too cool, thanks for posting!!!

Oddly enough tho, it is listed on the LondonDrugs.com website. Stranger still, its listed as being a Take2 title! http://www.londondrugs.com/Cultures/en-US/Products/Computers.htm?BreadCrumbs=Computers;Computers;Software;Games&Catalog=Computers&Sort=0&Page=2 I noticed that the American stores, (EBgames, Bestbuy, Walmart, to name a couple) have it on their sites, available to order online or buy in store. These same stores exist here, and do not stock it. I have noticed less PC titles on the shelves lately... ...but now that I think back on it, there has never been a Sim or game or movie that I could not find on Canadian shelves... It might have taken me a week to locate LO:FC, and even longer to get an Xbox copy of America's Army... but I found them. I think I'll just order the English boxed copy sooner to the patch release date, and be done with it. For some reason it feels like giving up. I will not be bumping this thread any further, unless of course it does hit shelves...

Still no BlackShark in these locations as of this date. :cry:

Good link, mvsgas! As if I didn't feel dumb enough as it is!!

I have Ch products, MSSFB2, X52, and Saitek pedals all running, works fine!!

It was organized a member on the http://www.hovercontrol.com/ forums...near the bottom they have a forum for Dodosim support, as there isn't one on the Dodo site itself. Good info on these forums, as well as a teamspeak server, and flight server once you register and download the right programs. DodoFest was held on Gamespy, and my frames happened to be really good; dropped to 20-25fps with Fraps running!

Diveplane, is Lukla Strip payware? and Nice Shots to everyone, I love my Razorback and have posted pic of it before!! Right now i do all my flying in the Dodosim 206B... this past weekend was Dodofest, with a trip around BC, Canada. Here's the vid i shot:

As far as I'm concerned, [TFC/ED] are doing a lot of work to bring something to everyone, even some unexpected work on LockOn:FC. This patch may not 'fix' all of the issues we have, but nevertheless we are assured they are doing they're best to put collidable trees and better AI into the DCS sim. I remember words to this effect; "take your frustration, multiply by ten, and you'll be close to how [TFC/ED] feels!" I'm pretty sure it's been said that the limitations of the current engine are the reason for the trees being only shaders, correct me if I'm wrong. In the new DCS:Warthog engine, will we not see collidable trees?? Anyway, they brought us DCS:BlackShark in a condition a little less than perfect, with the promise of patches and a new engine down the road...and we knew all this before we purchased our copy! The patch is more or less on-track; so is DCS:Warthog. We can be patient, positive, and supportive..... ...or we can act like unsupervised children on a Halo forum, and act superior to one another, argue, and be downright negative. Your choice... I say, :thumbup: Bravo TFS/ED, cant wait for the new patch/fixes, and bring on DCS:Warthog!!

Do you have the Dodosim, Diveplane? It is practically the only thing i fly in FSX now! Also, there is a NVG mod out that uses the ENBseries mod you may be interested in. Those 3D lights are the only reason i fly at night!

Here's one i did with the OH58D Kiowa.

Wow, that looks great!!
