  1. Somewhat? Are we talking October?, or Mid 2020? (order of magnitude for "somewhat" would be nice)
  2. Fair enough. Ignore my comment :) :thumbup:
  3. Hmm, odd.... I'm out of ideas on that one interesting, maybe I need to try the mission again, with WTurb turned off.
  4. Just becasue a Corsair is in development (by leatherneck simulations - https://www.facebook.com/leatherneck.simulations/photos/a.1603722746517064/2270083499880982/?type=3&theater) does NOT mean that, necessarily, a period carrier is also on the way. There has not been any statement or comittment from ED or any third party toward the development of a period carrier. - this turns out to be wrong The safest conclusion is that no such carrier is planned.
  5. Make sure you are on auto radiator, which you should be by default. Also, ensure the fuel pressure valve is in the "on" position. You might be loosing fuel pressure, rather than suffering from a cooling issue. I have not experienced this issue at all in Misison 2. Incidentally, when you get to mission 3, can you adivse if it is playable for you. I can't complete mission 3 due to FPS losses when the bombers spawn in.
  6. I've just had a look at this, and I see what you mean. It's nearly impossible to prevent nose-pendulumn at the end of the maneuver, if you use rudder durng the initial section of the roll to keep the nose up. I actually found it far easier to ignore the slip indicator (which is pretty wild when inverted) and to simply use a tiny bit of elevator to correct the nose when rolling back from inverted to normal attitude. It actually rolls quite nicely aournd the horizon without rudder, and it also means you don't get the wild swing in the final 20 to 50 degrees of roll as you come off the rudder. I'd also largely ignore the slip indicator.. you might be a bit out of balance, but the overall managability is far better than when using the rudder. Let me know if this is unclear, I can always make a quick video to explain.
  7. Every single server that has SRS has the basic infrastructure set up for live ATC etc. The real question is, will anyone actually be serving in that role when you join? The answer to that is, you can never know in advance. Having someone do ATC/AWACS etc. for the other players requries that someone is willing to go online and do it. If no-one is occupying that function, then it won't be there. There is not a single server that can garuntee to have someone doing that for the players all the time. I doubt there is even a single server which can garuntee that human ATC or similar will be availble on a regular and fixed basis at specific times either.
  8. Hi Nineline, I can't remember if I read this, or made it up from my own imagination, but were there plans to build a basic-FM set of WW2 aircraft? I've recently been flying some modded aircraft (A4 and the MB-339c) and I've been suprrised at how much fun these aircraft can be, despite the basic flight models they have. Thanks to my experience with these mods, a pack of WW2 aircraft with similarly "simply" flight models would be something I would now probably buy, whereas previously I would not have been so interested. Or maybe, as an alternative, ED could release WW2 modules first as a simple FM aircraft (let's say, with slighly-worse-than-real-life performance envelopes), with the upgrade to a full FM coming later on; provided the "simple" module had the sales to justify ongoing work. As long as customers were fully informed of this, I think it would be generally acceptable.
  9. From 1:28:35 onwards, Matt has some content. The section on the P47 is at 1:30:50 "and then finally on the ww2 front, a lot going on there as well. The P47 thunderbolt is up and flying internally, and moving along quite fast, and a nice target for that is going to be a new AI JU88" That's the full quote from Wags on WW2 development.
  10. Downloaded and installed the 339 last night. It's a great bird guys, well done. Very entertaning to fly.
  11. Yes, provided that the hosting server has the most installed and the mission has the slots for it. Every player who joins the server also needs to have the mod installed, so it restricts the potential number of players, but DCS multiplayer is fragmented by map/asste packs already in any case, so no real loss there.
  12. I tried flying this again today. FPS has deteriorated substantially, and now comes to a halt well before the flak areas. Will have to wait until I buy a new PC before I try this again
  13. This ^^ :) This is why we built Storm of War. It just wasnt very popular due to the tiny WW2 player base.Hopefully it will return once the damage model is released. Player behaviour online CAN be affected with mission design elements and with certain incentives.
  14. Thank for the reply. I am prettty sure I had the problem in the versions before wake turbulence was added. Until it's fixed, or unless I can get a mission with an air-start right before the RV with the bombers, I'm not really prepared to spend the time flying along from Tangmere just to check if it's broken or not.
  15. Huh? The B17 in DCS has bombs and will drop them
  16. Any news on this? Have folks been able to get through this mission recently? The amount of time required to spawn/ start and fly to the coast to test if it is still a problem puts me off trying until it is addressed. . . .
  17. This is the solution. Start with ONE aircraft in the group. Assign the loadout. Then add the other aircraft to the group. They will take the assignment from Aircraft 1 automatically.
  18. Avspecs, their FB page has the most up to date information https://www.facebook.com/Avspecs/ PZ474 is the famous recent build. This was her first flight
  19. Fixed for me. thanks!
  20. Also reporting this.
  21. I haven't found that. In the I-16, behind another I-16 at around 220 kph, I just experience a small "bouncing/swaying" of the nose with a little push downward. In the spitfire, behind a B17 at 350kph the aircraft rolls quite violently. But I haven't tested this thoroughly yet . . something more to look at though.
