I am having the exact same issue as you. So frustrating.

So wait, regular LANTIRN didn't have self-lasing capabilities or the masking avoidance curve display; This has both? Is this just a LANTIRN pod, or is it a LANTIRN + LTS pod?

Kind of a stupid question, but is there any way to increase the sensitivity of the mouse scroll for knobs like the lights/radio volume knobs? Currently 1 mouse scroll equals about 1mm of knob movement, so I have to scroll for something like 30 seconds to even get about halfway through the knobs complete rotation movement. Small nitpick...

lol

Whats the afterburner you are using?

I was able to some what work around this bug by disabling nosewheel steering before I begin rolling on the runway, so definitely line up before you apply power.

Counterpoint: It's a goddamn Hollywood movie.

Hi there, I just flew a mission with 6 other friends in the Mig-21bis on the 104th Phoenix server. Naturally we got pwned in the end :) I was trying to view the track file to pull some screenshots, however I found that the track file follows the same rules as the server it was captured on. So basically I am stuck in an internal view with no labels. Is there any way to remove that restriction from track files?

For those who want to know how to edit the chase view (F4) for the Mig-21bis (and other aircraft), it's as simple as the following: Note: Some of the guides that I read claimed that you have to make a copy of the '%install directory%\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Config\View\server.lua' file and move it into your own '%userprofile%\Saved Games\DCS\Config\View' folder. I found that this did not work for me. I had to edit the server.lua file in the DCS install directory for these changes to take affect. I'm not sure if they will persist on multiplayer servers. Make a backup of your server.lua file Open the original file in Notepad++ I searched for and could not find a ViewSettings section pertaining to the Mig-21bis, thus I had to create it (I copy/pasted the relevent sections from the ViewSettings section of the A-10). I haven't noticed my cockpit viewpoint being any different with these settings as I doubt they are optimized for the Mig-21bis ViewSettings["MiG-21Bis"] = { Cockpit = { [1] = default_fighter_player({CockpitLocalPoint = {7.959000,1.419000,0.000000}})-- player slot 1 }, -- Cockpit Chase = { LocalPoint = {0.230000,-0.300000,-1.400000 --first value is longitudinal position on plane x axis (+ is closer to cockpit) --second value is height from center of aircraft --third value is y (positive value is right side of plane, negative value is left side) }, AnglesDefault = {0.000000,-0.000000 --first value is camera viewpoint in degrees --second value is the camera pitch angle }, }, -- Chase Arcade = { LocalPoint = {-12.041000,6.419000,0.000000}, AnglesDefault = {0.000000,-8.000000}, }, -- Arcade } You may also want to change the following line to false to allow your camera angle to be closer to the ground CameraTerrainRestriction = true Save changes Fire up DCS World and start an instant action mission in the Mig-21bis Play around with the Chase camera LocalPoint settings to move the viewpoint around. The settings that are present represent a viewpoint just to the front and right of station #1 And that's all there was to it.

Took some nice gifs of a recent mission I flew after I made a new camera angle :) https://gfycat.com/OrangeSatisfiedKouprey https://gfycat.com/BasicJauntyBats (Parts of) The Mission:

Woohoo! Figured it out...not too sure if the settings will stay for MP though... Neat video I took: edit: I'll post how I figured it out once I'm not too tired to type :D Should be fixed now. VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

I have not, is it possible for a snap view to be actually outside of the cockpit?

Hey all, I've been fooling around in the Mig-21 for a few days now and been having a blast! I've recently seen some videos taken from planes in flight from what obviously are GoPro (or GoPro-like) cameras mounted on various surfaces of the plane such as this one here. I've been searching around the forums trying to find out if it is as all possible to get camera shots like the ones from the video but in game, however I haven't had much luck. Most of what I have seen reference the server.lua file in the 'DCS World\config\views\' folder and editing that, however this file differs greatly now from the examples that I've seen here, here and here. Does anyone know if such a camera view is possible to pull off in game now? Greatly appreciated!

So wait, does this mean LN will be releasing a module in 2015? :pilotfly:

Has anyone had issues with a strange offset when playing the game on Oculus? I took some pictures to give an indication of the behavior I'm seeing: http://imgur.com/2WxVbNk http://imgur.com/1setcRC Also the head tracking doesn't appear to be working either. Not sure if it's related to the strange resolution/offset issue. I've stopped the OR service before starting DCS as well. Is there an official instruction set for getting DCS to work with Oculus?

So set it to semi-auto mode :) It will automatically select the best profile when it detects a weapon launch, but will not deploy the program until you hit the CMS fire button.

I just got shipment notification at 6 AM this morning that my Warthog it on it's way! (CA resident)

Where do people live that have been receiving shipment notifcations? I emailed shopBLT and the gentleman who replied back said that "Pre-orders are reserved in the closest warehouse, before inventory is available. Once inventory arrives, orders are filled in a particular warehouse." I am wondering if they received their shipment on the East Coast and filled their orders out of their Pennsylvania warehouse first...

Confirmed that my order date was 8/13. Checked online order status and it says 11/23/2010 estimated ship date :(

Holy crap if they are honoring that price, props to 'em. HOWEVER, I was probably among the first 5 to order the pre-order, and I JUST got an email stating that the shipment date has been pushed back to November 23'rd as well :rolleyes:

To people who think the price will not be changed, read the fine print in your order, specifically the part where it says: LEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: 1) Charges for this order will appear as "SHOPBLT.COM" on your credit card statement. 2) Your credit card will be charged the amount shown. Every effort has been made to ensure information accuracy, however we are not responsible for typographical errors. Pricing is subject to change, and this Purchase Order is not a guarantee of pricing. You will be contacted before order processing, if an item is currently priced higher than reflected on this Purchase Order. You may also be contacted by voice and / or e-mail for verification of your order, especially if your billing and shipping addresses are not identical. If you have any questions, please contact us at the phone numbers or email addresses listed. Logic says that they should NOT have put an order up three months before they even knew what the price was going to be, and it looks like they KNEW the price was going to go up. I hope they end up losing a lot of money due to people canceling their orders with them :mad:

Original price was 405 INCLUDING shipping. At least that's what it says on my order form. Note that they haven't actually billed for it yet. I'm eager to see how they are going to try to extort an additional 115 bucks out of me

Oh my god holy crap: Ship date pushed back AND priced raised by almost 25% http://www.shopblt.com/cgi-bin/shop/shop.cgi?action=enter&thispage=01100200U025_BDE6442P.shtml&order_id=!ORDERID!#Availability Canceling my order, that's a clear case of bait-n-switch if I've ever seen it.
