  1. Squadron Name: The Art of Warfare Aircraft Selection: All Pilot Roster: To be decided
  2. If you want to you can go go dig it up in the Russian forum from two years ago. Flanker pilots were moaning the AMRAAM had too strong of a CCM resistance when it got reworked, It kept on going for awhile till ED gave it and reverted their changes and "nerfed" the AMRAAM. When the actual problem was the R-27 was eating chaff too easily back then. Not like it mattered for long as the new scheme missiles had all chaff effects removed from it not long after.
  3. Yeahhh sadly not always , ED have changed values before for balance when people have moaned when it didnt fit their agenda.
  4. Yep this was it , it was a conflict with that other VR mod lingering in the background. cheers
  5. Anyone had this issue ? I've repaired and redid the files a few times already. OpenXR demo launches , unsure why DCS is failing

  8. I've tested positive for Covid , therefore I wont make it back home for the event as I'm stuck away from my PC for the next 11 days. Someone else should take my spot. TAW_DarksydeRob
  9. There is a problem with PH ACT and Pulse STT launches currently anyway. Currently in DCS its got a magical way of acquiring the target it was shot at (Magic INS) when its within pitbull range if shot above the pitbull range. For example , you shoot at 25NM and it flies straight till 10NM then it will magically know where its target is and will start going after them immediately. I'm assuming the intention for it in reality is to turn on , scan and acquire a target within its FOV not have Magic INS outside its FOV. Although if it has passed the target it will not do 180 but it still will still start going after something outside its FOV. The 120s and SD10s had the same logic for awhile when if you lost lock before Pitbull it didn't matter as when it got within right distance it would start magically tracking the target. just as the 54 does currently . This was corrected though so wondering when this is going to be corrected with the 54's active from launch modes.
  10. Its nothing new , this including other FC3 issues have been reported for years . Unless a game breaking bug appeared over an update , dont expect anything to happen to FC3 anytime soon at all.
  11. All calculations are done from the Pilots client , what the RIO sees is what the server thinks the missile is doing , so RIO gets the same missile as the target aircraft. Its an issue if the Pilot laggs as then all four : Server , Pilot, Riot and target aircraft will have different missiles on their clients. Off the top of my head if the RIO laggs the pilots client doesn't register the changes ( I could be wrong or have been lucky ) it just halts getting updates from the RIO until he has stabilized and starts giving input again. The other is issue is the overall desync of the pheonix. Its related to the delay of the server receiving the data from the pilot. Just that 1 second or so of delay due to the fact of there being no post launch syncing of the missile from the server and the 14 pilot client creates this issue. Its not just the Aim 54 that suffers from this , features had to be removed in December/January from the 120 missile scheme to resolve some big desync issues with the 120's and SD-10's. The threshold of desync is much higher on the 54 due to its speed , it covers more ground in that delay when its takes action. This is especially true when you essentially maddog a Aim 54 or use the PH ACT and while having a track on a target in TWS above 10NM. Overall its not just about the 54 and ultimately its up to ED to negate this issue not HB, as even with HB updating the 54 to the new scheme wont remove these issues. ED need to transition from a client sided netcode to server sided, clientside netcode is very outdated and causes issues like this. This was reported and confirmed in the testers section so ED do know about it. I have to say its weird if you guys have had nothing from ED relating this topic at all as its been 8 months since this has been reported. I'll have to dig up the things Sauvuer and me reported to ED and then send them to you. Although the tracks are going to be old , nevertheless its not had to reproduce yourselves. Would of gladly done them myself for you but I'm currently away abroad.
  12. I reported it at the same time as the annoucement. Its not true at all, if you want to talk about the most restricted aircraft it has been the 14 . The thing I don't think a lot of people realise with SATAL is the fact that its a competition that designs itself about pilot skill as one of its main pillars. Therefore you can't just leave everything unbalanced and allow massive discrepancies , this is the nature of a competition. I do agree there will always be fanboys of their own aircraft trying to campaign and make sure that their aircraft always has the upper hand however its not being tailored around them. Its a competition. With SATAL 2020 the Jeff was a problem as the SD 10 had major drag issues and turned like it had thrust vectoring, instead of being outright banned it was restricted, then unrestricted when it was fixed. I'm not really sure how you can call this a bias when it had no place in a competitive environment due to its issues. Same with the Aim 54 it was restricted in 2019 (when it should of been banned and it wasn't due to other factors) due to its problems , and I'm saying that as a F-14 lover . This year its outright banned (rightly so) till its desync exploits are patched. Which should be soon as heatblur said the updated Aim-54 should be coming soonish. Currently the Jeff is in a very favourable position , 4 SD 10s v 6 120Bs in SATAL ( when the IC issue gets fixed , as it should be easy to) . So if this is doing harm to the Jeff, I'm not sure what you think is fair. I think apart bar one or two things related to RWR's pretty much all of ED modules dont allow you to edit the aircraft performance or other systems due to the Integrity Check or them not being easily accessiable in lua files like on the Jeff. It has been reported and I hope ED look at everything and not just the Jeff to squash anything else being easily editable via lua files in other modules. Sadly, if someone wanted to go through the effort to cheat in a game they will . Furthermore in DCS there is no real anti cheat , just the IC which checks assigned files if they have been tampered with and im pretty sure if you wanted to go through the effort you can bypass it probably pretty easily if you know what you were doing . 99% of the community dont fly the simulator genre to cheat so there hasnt been any major measures taken by ED to stop people from cheating in MP. Especially when those people are a very small minority.
  13. Like you thought in your other post , it is simply a limitation of the old missile gudiance. Heatblur devoetd time into implementing the SARH/Active logic before doing any transition work to the new logic. However straight after they started looking into it, around January time. Recently I asked if there was any progress on this transition and this was their reply: Soon enough we will have a proper pheonix.
  14. Has any work at all started for transitioning the 54 from old missile logic to the new one yet?
