  1. After re-reading my post, I removed it, and in the same second I asked HB guys about the status. My anger about it isn't gone though.
  2. PM sent, but I think MaxSenna was already faster than me :). Hey Max!
  3. The sounds (including music) played in a mission are related to the sound setting "Helmet". There is no mission editor trigger action playing music over the channel which is controlled by the sound setting "Music". This relates to SOUND TO ALL, SOUND TO COALITION, SOUND TO GROUP, and SOUND TO UNIT. Only exception from this would be to stream over the radio, which is done by mission editor trigger action RADIO TRANSMISSION. Which is a 20 years DCS weakness. Yes. ED should really start creating trigger actions "MUSIC TO ALL", "MUSIC TO COALITION", "MUSIC TO GROUP", "MUSIC TO UNIT" for which the sound output is controlled by the sound slider "Music". Sending a big new wish to universe ... @BIGNEWY
  4. okay. Meanwhile I have prepared two videos, one showing max possible theoretical frame in SA and another one showing CAUCASUS. Watch the theoretical frames moving heavily. On SA it happens around 00:22, and on CAUCASUS around 00:40. So there is definitely something very strange going on. In case of CAUCASUS, in my configuration, we are talking about fps between 180 and 120, which is a drop of a third with exaclty NOTHING going on the map!
  5. Hey Dmitri! I have a few performance issues here and there, thus I am referring to your posting above; I have a few questions: Is there any difference in having the electric system turned ON or OFF (hot start or cold start) on your rig? Do you see a low frame rate when flying above the "magic 900ft AGL limit" that this map introduces, or does it increase the "expected bit" when transitioning from lower altitudes to higher altitudes? What terrain texture setting are you using? I am asking since it requires GPU RAM and the 3070TI has only 8GB RAM But following your information above, there is a huge difference between the modules, indeed. Might be the case that the high amount of triangles of the AH64 together with the high requirement of GPU RAM for the map makes you system cry. I think it needs more investigation. I assume your shaders are current, and no "old driver versus current DCS shaders" are on your system. edit: After a quick test, it seems that the AH64 is susceptible to hard frame drops, even when cold on the ground (between 180 and 70 fps on my rig). I am currently preparing two videos, one on SA, another one on CAUC...
  6. De nada! BTW: The feature is documented here. I am pretty sure most people don't read what Heatblur wants them to read ... Mi dispiace di non parlare italiano. Purtroppo ho avuto un pessimo insegnante di latino. If that makes sense .. ?
  7. What do the new TRIGGER CONDITIONS "ABSOLUTE TIME MORE" (and "LESS") do exactly?
  8. Thats true, no shortcuts
  9. nullAre you sure that this is true for your system?
  10. The images are shown at 70% of DCS windowsize. You have two options: "Normal means": Remove them via COMMS menu > F-10 Other > "Disable pictures" and use the ones in your kneeboard; the kneeboard size can be changed via mouse. "Hack": Load the mission into mission editor and change all cyan triggers starting with "SWITCHED CONDITION (Enable pictures T0x X) and set the TRIGGER ACTION "PICTURE TO ALL" to higher values.
  11. Hey Gretsch_Man! I flew the 1st mission too, and I liked it very much. Only thing was that the guy standing at the holding point for RWY 32 didn't move away (despite I had clearance to go), and subsequently all other flights were blocked. The mission worked until the end though, and I managed to get it finished, so no big deal. Don't get me wrong ... but ... erm ... I love the Viggen, and I personally love everyone who is somehow working for the Viggen Kisses! TOViper
  12. Find this on page 87 in RC2.1.
  13. Oh, that's an interesting spot, never noticed that.
  14. Would be one of my "within 10 seconds instant buy actions". 0 seconds for thinking, 10 seconds for paying. Period. Others hate this idea, but I would simply love it. I don't care if it is a 100% representation or not. I just want to fly a Viggen without compressor stalls when hunting MiG-21s
  15. Hello again dear Viggen pilots! Manual revision 2025-03-19 coming with DCS update 2.9.15.9408: page 32: Added information about the RPM indicator. page 56: Added and changed information about the engine. page 64: Applied small changes to the description of the reverser page 64: Added picture of the green reverser indication light page 246: Applied small changes to the description for the use of the reverser Kind regards, TOViper
  16. The AS mode selector indeed influences the radar picture. Try it out: Place Russian warship Moskva on map Approach Moskva with the Viggen flying in 200 m above sea Turn on the radar and try to sweep the radar beam over the ship When your radar is sweeping over the Moskva, observe it jamming; thereby it might be a little hard to determine its current position caused by the missing range information); this is caused by the strong noise (black areas on the radar screen) Now use AS mode selector in different positions, and see the changes in appearance of the noise on the radar screen Maybe (!) then you may determine its real position by getting not only the bearing, but also range Depending on range and height above sea you might get different results, but its important to observe the mode selector indeed changes something ...
  17. There must be some "Sitzhöhenverstellungmechanismusmotorstromversorgungsleitungsabsicherungsreparaturanweisungsblatt" somewhere....
  18. Now we can start thinking of the reason for a seat heating ... hm. Maybe some pilot-induced "oscillation"?
  19. Was just an accidental find while thinking about this and at that the toilet ...
  20. nullAs can be seen in the screenshot of the current DCS user manual, the skill levels are: Average Good High Excellent These do not match the selections in the sim, which are: Rookie Trained Veteran Ace null
  21. Guys, in MP last week I had serious troubles with sling loading a 23mm Howitzer on HACA DYCA server. I select # > F6 > 23 mm gun > I see red smoke on the package > I see the rope coming; my buddy in the OH-58 didn' see the rope > I try to tension it > in 400 ft above ground still no tension > I release. When trying to select another cargo with # > F6, I see the menu option "Cancel hooking cargo"; it never disappeared, even after selecting it several times, so I was not able to select another cargo then. I tried two times with 2 UH-1s within the same mission, but to no luck. Is this related that the carg used in the mission is NOT a specific "UH-1 Cargo"?
  22. East of Kerman in Persian gulf hosts a lot of desert, though I am pretty sure they didn't film there. I flew there years ago when it came out. Has a very specific beauty this map, especially in the Iranian area I feel.
  23. Maybe its better to remember the position of the needles (2 o'clock you are most probably rolling or falling from sky, 4 o'clock you are barely getting to fly, 6 o'clock you are in the comfort speed range, 7 o'clock you approach higher dynamic pressure areas, 8 o'clock you get in lower subsonic speed range, 9 o'clock you are slowly approaching transonic range, etc.). Remember these positions together with their related values if you can, so you don't have to really read the values, but instead just glance on the needles which are much more easier to spot. If you need exact values, you can always reserve one or one and a half second (shouldn't take much longer). It's time to use a curvature for the roll axis then; I have Warthog as well and I feel that a curvature value of ~10 to 20 is good enough. The same applies to pitch axis (considering pitch stab is ON); with a curvature of 20 you should be fine here as well.
  24. Hey thank you for your quick response! Luckily, I got it working using this trick. Would be good to have this trick in the documentation in order to avoid unneccesary questioning here in the thread... Thanks and kind regards! TOViper
