DIAVOLO 1-3 | 2RGT Red MiGhty-21Bias

Huge congrats to Knight, Ray and Money! It was a ton of fun flying with you. :D Looking forward to the next one! P.S. Is it possible to have the tacview of the fights?

Yea, I've noticed it too. As soon as you take / give controls, the pilot who loses controls goes in G-Loc and there will be a control surface that detaches (Flaps as first, then aileron and then rudder and elevator). It's a real shame! Such a fun little plane to fly in two

Name: DIAVOLO 1-3 | 2RGT Redhot Squadron (if any): 2RGT Country: Italy

I don't know where to pick the logs from a ctd without warning but as a RIO as soon I locked a target yesterday in BuddySpike PG I got a crash to desktop. Exactly the instant I pressed PDSTT. I was following him in TWS then switched to PDSTT and as soon I clicked the game froze 1 second and then it showed my desktop. Hopefully we'll get something in today's patch.

I imagine it can get quite messy. Looking forward to it, before you always had it on since I could review my flight directly, Burning Skies uses it too but I guess without missiles the mission is way more simple. Let us know, thank you very much!

As you know for sure, .trk file can get desynced and require you to watch the whole flight again. If my plane crashes I have no way to review my flight and since I mainly use the MiG-21, tracks are 100% corrupted. You used to always have the 3 export selected (object export, sensor export and player export I believe) in the advanced options so as soon I end my sortie, I could wait 10 minutes and leave the server and review my flight. Generating the tacview directly on the MP session. Maybe moving on the dedicated server resetted this settings thus not allowing the export of the tacview directly on multiplayer. I know from servers like BuddySpike and DDCS it can get quite heavy if the server is not stable, I hope that's not the problem with yours.

And I even searched... :doh: Thank you. Looks like the excessive range is acknowledged, let's hope for a quick fix

I have searched but nobody posted it yet (I hope). What happens is every radar painting and launching will be received by the F-14's RWR even though the missile is not directed to my aircraft. I can understand if it's in a close formation, but yesterday a SA-2 was launching at me, and my buddy got launch signal too, but he was 100 nmi away from me! Same thing in public servers, if there's a dogfight nearby every enemy aircraft launching a Fox 1 will be displayed in the RWR as if those planes were launching at my aircraft. As soon I'll go back home I will post a track. Cheers,

Never knew the F-5 had that! Thank you very much! I honestly feel like it's a must have to any airplane that had it, I don't know if the Bf 109 had something to block the MW50 but the P-51 had a string and it's modelled in DCS. MiG-21 you can turn the AB off with a switch... so it's kinda ok, I guess. Viggen would be neat but you can understand when AB is on. I just hate planes that give no feedback when AB is on ( other than the fuel flow skyrocketing ).

This might be a good reason to change that! I am just speech less on how good Heatblur is when having 2 planes in the works! One even beign the F-14!

The A-4E doesn't pass IC in multiplayer :(

I hate the Hornet, it's ugly, slow and only single seat compared to the tomcat but the theme for DCS is just amazing... They couldn't have made a better one. I can understand you don't like it, but it's not horrible. That said. You have to remember there will be a full album for the Tomcat by Meteor! (IIRC they said it will be about 12 songs). You won't be disappointed. In the meanwhile you can listen to .

I love how RAZBAM just announced finally a Redfor aircraft, resumed development on the F-15E, release of the MiG-19P this year and maybe either EA of the Eagle or the Tucano, yet people are asking for the Mirage III like if they aren't busy enough...

Strange indeed, yesterday I was playing with a friend and he had no problem at all! I tried to repair, clean DCS and reinstall the viggen multiple times without success. Thank you!

Negative. I just remember that they removed something but it was just the ability for the copilot to take control of the heli. Sorry, you're right, it HAS multicrew.

If I recall correctly, they removed the feature due to some bugs. EDIT : No only the ability to pilot the helicopter as a co pilot has been removed

At the moment only the L-39. It's a training aircraft, it's fun but quite limited on weapons. This year we'll get the F-14A&B Tomcat which will have the pilot and the RIO in the back, he's the guy supposed to manage the radar while the guy in front does "some of that pilot shit". Next up, probably next year, who knows(?) there will be the UH-1H Huey, Mi-8 (They're already available but they said "in the next months" they'll work on the multicrew for this two helicopters) and then the F-4E Phantom. For now I don't think there is any other multicrew announced

1) Yea, the rift is "bad" I use it sometimes with fighters, but for attackers is a no go. I use the TrackIR 5 TrackHat. I don't know how's the TrackClipPro but in my opinion would be better than a hat simply by the fact you don't have to wear a hat. I don't know how's the tracking though. 2) Multiplayer community is generally welcoming new players, and are willing to teach a module. There will be some dickheads of course but they're everywhere anyway :) Yes there are coop missions (even bundled within modules) that you can play freely. There is also MBot Dynamic Campaign but I don't have enough upload (0,7mbps) to host it so it's a no go for me :S 3)You have every plane of the game, simply you can't fly it until you buy it (except then it will download the cockpit etc. but you get the point) so yes, you can fly with your friends, say you bought the Viggen while your friend bought the Mirage 2000C, you will be able to play together without you buying the Mirage and viceversa. Hope that was clear enough, tell me if you need more / have more questions. :)

In the part above the autopilot modes selector there's a strange reflection coming from a transparent plane , .

The Kneeboard has multiple copies of the first page (In the cold start instant action up to 16) where there should be infos on the various waypoints + QNH / QFE The others are completely transparent, only the border shows. Sometimes the waypoint info shows, sometimes doesn't (In the same mission, without respawning). Maybe after cycling them all then going back to those pages it shows it. I've attached the log, not sure how useful it could be, just spawning in the Instant Action mission and checking the Kneeboard. dcs.txt

The INS itself is not broken, some instruments are. The HUD is not slaved to the horizon, while the course ring is stuck 180° from the direction of travel. Looking at the ADI, it shows correct indication for every navigation mode, form NAV to TILS landing. Another thing I found (not sure if it's linked to the rest) is that when you engage HOJD autopilot mode the reference altitude is slightly higher while before it showed that you were aligned with the reference altitude. (Not sure if it's clear enough?). Not sure if it's worth open a thread but I can't change page in the kneeboard, it's stuck in the first 4 waypoints page. Other planes are not affected (Tested MiG-21, Bf 109 and F-15C). I did a simple flight from ramp, rocket run and back to the airfield. Here's the log. If you need something specific, ask.

Thank you! Could you please edit your first message so other users can fix that without too much hassle? I'm going to try that this weekend with some friends!

Well, I tried to see if it was a my problem that I couldn't keep the cargo stable until

I don't know but for me it's waaaay harder recognize the planes (I play in VR). It was much easier in 1.5, yesterday I played a bit of Cold War and to understand what was the enemy fighter I had to get really, really close. The harrier is a bit easier since you can see the smoke trails. It might also be the fact that both of these engagement were from the tail, instead of the usual merge headon / lateral.
