  1. Hello Razbam Team! The recent update of SA map was really a good one. Thanks for the hard work you have done guys, and please dont' stop carrying out some more work on other areas of the map. It's really worth it I think. Despite SA being the only Razbam module so far, SA and Kola are my most beloved maps in DCS, period. Kind regards, TOViper
  2. Very good, you managed it! According to the trigger conditions that I can read in the mission editor, there is a provision for some margin for all three digits (arguments 676, 675, 674): null
  3. Hey guys @ED! Can we please have a Kollsman window for reading the pressure setting in the main barometric altimeter? Currently it doesn't make sense to have keybindings to change the pressure setting without reading it somewhere. IRL the window is placed on the right bottom area of the instrument: Thanks & keep up working on the F-15C! Kind regards, TOViper
  4. Hey Kifter1983! I watched your track, and I noticed that you played around with the HSI COURSE setting. You changed it several times between 055° and 065°. Did you really press SPACEBAR when you have set it exactly to 065°? Because the lesson logic waits for your confirmation ... Unfortunately this is what a track doesn't indicate/show if a user presses SPACEBAR or not ... thus I am asking.
  5. Happy new year guys! Interesting discussion here. I read the left diagram as the lift-induced drag of the aircraft, and the middle table as the form/interference drag penalty of external stores. Does anybody know if this very diagram was implemented in the code, maybe @MYSE1234? Just did a quick flight: It's amazing to see the Viggen flying in zero meters with 100% fuel for 1200km at Mach 0.85 (clean) @ISA. The "B/V %KM" value would be ~0.104 at 15.2 tons , and ~0.1025 at 10.7 tons. So the min/max distances would be 100/0.104 = 961km and 100/0.1025 = 975 km, so I guess the diagram is not implemented right now. Never mind, the Viggen is great.
  6. Hey Darkdiz! To be honest I dont know if this should work. But I am just curious: Did you use mklink.exe to make directory joints? Like ... mklink /j <NAME> <DIRECTORY>
  7. DCS 2.9.11.4686 South Atlantic June, in the evening, clear weather, sun is still slightly above the horizon First picture: The terrain shadow is visible to the far right of the ridge line, but not visble starting at the ridge line, but it should. Second picture: The camera was moved downwards to show that the lighted area should be in shadow, because the sun is now under the ridge line. Flew in VR with shared parser = true

  8. TACAN is working since 2.9.11.4686, and can therefore be closed. Thank you ED and ORBX!
  9. Hey Arecibo! You said you already managed to fly the lesson successfully, but nevertheless I did a quick run-through of the Lesson 03: Takeoff & Navigation. You may discover the one or other :magic: trick in that video Unfortunately I could not speak caused by a freaking soar throat Kind regards and happy new year! TOViper
  10. Verrrrry nice, South Atlantic in Winter clothes. I love it. Thanks ED and RAZBAM!
  11. Merry Christmas Viggen drivers! Unfortunately, the newest manual revision again will not make it into the DCS update. You can download the latest revision RC2.1.2412 using the link in the first post of this thread. Manual revision 2024-12-18: .) page 97: Reworked chapter "B-scope" for didactic reasons; Most content is now part of the new chapter "Target spotting in B-scope" on page 266; Thanks to Snappy and Quigon! .) page 239: Moved procedure "Dry start" to page 236 for didactic purposes. .) page 241: Slightly reworked the procedure "Manual initial heading setting" for didactic purposes. .) page 240: Renamed chapter "Takeoff and Landing" to "Takeoff" for didactic purposes. .) page 244: Inserted heading "Landing" for didactic purposes. .) page 266: Inserted chapter "Target spotting in B-scope"; Special thanks to Snappy! .) all pages: Changed name of "trigger" to "Weapon release trigger" throughout the document. Thanks to Machalot! .) all pages: Changed upper/lower case writing style for some switches/systems throughout the document. Kind regards, TOViper
  12. Looking at your posting, one could say that the manual is actually VERY good
  13. Good morning Viggen drivers! Unfortunately, the newest manual revision didn't make it into the DCS update. You can download the latest revision RC2.1.2411 using the link in the first post of this thread. Manual revision 2024-11-12: .) page 56: Added header "Engine data" for the data table .) page 82: Added headers "Main landing gear", "Nose landing gear", "Limits" .) page 82: Added text about the maximum allowable descent rate to the chapter "Limits" .) page 184: Added didactic reference to chapters "Vind / RUTA / MÅL Overview" and "Reconnaissance" .) page 192: Moved picture to page 191 for didactic reasons .) page 215: Moved chapter "Canopy Jettison" to page 214 for didactic reasons .) page 215: Reworked chapter "Ejection seat" slightly .) page 215: Added pictures for Ejection handles and the Seat height switch .) page 216: Reworked chapter "Oxygen" slightly .) page 251: Removed picture (already shown in chapter 03 & to keep layout of chapter 05 consistent - no pictures) .) page 252: Restructured chapter "AKT POS" for didactic reasons .) page 254: Restructered chapter "Vind / RUTA / MÅL Overview" for didactic reasons .) page 256 & 257: Restructered chapter "TID" for didactic reasons .) page 258: Restructered chapter "TAKT" for didactic reasons .) page 260: Moved text about Normal mode to page 259 for didactic reasons .) page 376: Removed "I." from the header .) page 376: Removed "II." from the header .) page 382: Added new chapter "Miscellaneus", currently covering the special options tab and details about the two currently existing options. .) all pages: Exchanged "Course" with "Heading" whenever applicable (following the change for page 31 that came with update 2024-10-18; note: "Course correction knob" is being kept) Preview: The next revision will take care about the B-scope of the radar, some clarification about the target fix function, and some other small issues. Since this is a bit more difficult step than just tiny corrections & bug fixes, it might take a little more time as usual. Kind regards, TOViper
  14. As written, the TACAN in ANDOYA is not visible on the F-10 map. Although, all aircraft capable of TACAN can tune in 59X and receive at least DME information, but no radial information. ANDOYA VOR on 112.20 MHz can be tuned in into any VOR receiver, there DME + RADIALS are working fine. Tested with F-4, F-14, F-16, UH-1. DCS 2.9.10.4160. Greetings
  15. With the help of my fellow mates Quigon and Snappy I changed the B-scope story a bit; this is the new draft: null
  16. I found out that the new "Multi selection" tool cannot handle carrier groups with aircraft on it. Or I am doing something wrong? Once all groups (aircraft, carrier and linked statics) are selected, and then moving them around via mouse, they somehow "dissolve". The aircraft that initially had been linked to the carrier (no matter if cold or hot) and the linked static objects are moved somewhere else. See video: Otherwise, nice update with that fog. The same fog setting seems to be "thinner" at night than during day, or is it just an illusion?
  17. It has. The current version is 2.1.2410, as wished by many. A newer version is work in progress right now. null
  18. Just downloaded the new update. I see the "Volumetric cloud" option didn't make it into the Launcher, right?
  19. Guys, I need you to read through. This is the first part of my change regarding the B-scope. Another one regardin the distances will follow. I divided the content, now spread over chapters 3 and 5: Chapter 3 now contains only a very rough description of the B-scope (changes on page 97), and chapter 5 now hosts a detailed description (new on page 266). This chapter is not easy to change, thus I am asking you for your opinions. null
  20. Hey Rudel! Did the trick fix the issues you experienced recently?
  21. Found that one: https://youtu.be/63zLK2Fonqk?si=XPKwaeVVJZ4fPO8Y&t=153ry
  22. https://youtu.be/63zLK2Fonqk?si=XPKwaeVVJZ4fPO8Y&t=153ry Very good job Tommyboy 0797!
  23. Can't wait to buy & fly it. Such a long journey until they updated it. Hopefully, worth the wait.
  24. I have problems with that function too. If I fly and go to control setup, the tooltips dont pop up. If I then quit the mission, and go into options > controls, then the tooltips are shown. There is something wrong with it.
  25. Ok, I'll see what I can do on that! Tahnks for posting your observations and suggestions!
