[Whats she like to fly?]

If you want a "bug-free" aircraft, that has "all systems" implemented for normal usage: go for the F-5, it is a very nice model and I personally love to fly it!

The black MiG-28 aggressor livery is outstanding, and my friend and me are doing sparring very often using the F-5 (he in the F-18, me in the Tiger).

[Coolest thing just happened!]

This might be tested once more using the newest OB update:

BTW: cool story! :))

[Viggen not flyable after last update]

Just flew a quick test mission in Nevada.

No problems in general. Few bugs are gone now, which is pretty fine!

 

Some "old" bugs are still existent with "NAN errors" in the .cpp file as usual ... :music_whistling:

Posted a few of them, including one today, so did other users during the weeks ago. Think (hope) RagnarDa is taking care of them ...

[Emergency pitch trim NOSE UP (BAKT) doesn't work]

Yipieehh, finally in 2.5.6.47224 it works! :thumbup:

Thanks RagnarDa for applying this patch!

 

Question:

According to manual, the TRIM CB should recover NORMAL trim after applying EMERGENCY trim.

Was this implemented too, since it didn't work out on my computer.

 

Thanks and kind regards,

[Viggen not flyable after last update]

After updating my stable version of DCS the viggen is not flyable i dont know if something changed or if its a bug.

it is unstable like the su-27 after turning the FBW off.

 

Hm, you have SPAK selected ON (green light illuminated)?

You have no new curvature for you joystick?

[Q1E Development Update]

Good luck Cobra, and best wishes!

Hopefully all goes well ... *thumbspressed*

Can we watch it from other countries than the listed ones?

[[FIXED] Crash on BER after Landing]

What jets in DCS have thrust reversers ??? Thanks

 

Viggens have.

 

BER is a master mode in the Viggen, like NAV, ANF, ...

[Kneeboard suddenly has no waypoints]

My waypoint chart in the Viggen suddenly has no waypoints. The charts are there along with everything else like radio and cartridge info but no waypoints. Is there a way to fix this? I already did a repair.

 

*edit

Seems to be working on other servers. It just doesn't work in instant action.

 

Just to make sure ... are there waypoints set for this mission?

You may prove this by opening the mission file in the editor ...

[Main campaign - some missions I can not change kneeboard pages]

Playing through the main campaign right now and I’m finding that in some missions I can use the kneeboard normally, but sometimes I load into a mission and I can open the kneeboard but cannot change pages at all. I have double checked the bindings and the button on my keyboard is bound but it doesn’t do anything. Since it’s intermittent it’s hard to troubleshoot. Obviously kind of important to the campaign since I usually need to see at least page 2 for target QFE.

 

This might help, at least it did for a few of us, including me:

[[ALREADY REPORTED]Each update ruins the airports weapons tables again]

How do you actually fix this ?

 

I have it happen on some munition, not all... and now the munition is not visible in the menu

 

I have not fix. From version to version I manually edit the tables, which is a nightmare.

ED shows no sign of improvement on this long lasting and very nasty issue.

[Walkman in AJS-37?]

Happens to me too. Regardless of which songs are in the playlist. Currently the Viggen has the fastest way to close DCS with the simple push of the the "Play" button.

[Is immortal(on) working for you guys?]

Looks like I can keep blowing up units that are set as immortal(on). Do you guys have seen something similar in your missions?

 

under 2.5.6.45915 it works for me (did some trigger tests on my big mission during the last few days). I got several hits, and continued my flight ...

 

But there is another issue that I have (maybe) noticed, but Im not sure on this and I have to re-check due to the total chaos going on currently with the AI. Immortal AI units are not seen by enemies, ... but again I have to re-check this someday.

[[INVESTIGATING]I don't know what to say anymore so I made you a video...]

Thanks for digging into this issue, highly appreciated!!! :thumbup:

[[REPORTED]"chaff flare" on gear retraction]

Ok I managed to narrow it down even more, BigNewy.

 

Below, I attached the file where it still occurs ("stillBugged"). The "working" custom file (big shoutout to Panther for helping in testing!) can be found on this page on their group's website

 

The ONLY different lines are these 2 parts (I use https://www.diffchecker.com/ to quickly find the differences)

-- MAN 1 part

and

-- MAN 5 part

 

So I conclude one of those 2 parts is the culprit. (I doubt it can be the titles, as the "--" lines are comments and DCS fully ignores those afaik?)

 

Hope you (or someone) has a theory what it is/can find out what it is.

 

This file is coded ANSI.

I think it would not work, since IIRC it should be coded UTF-8. Can someone confirm this?

[[INVESTIGATING]I don't know what to say anymore so I made you a video...]

I just tried that exact section of road with a group of M1A2s and then with Bradely's, they manage to navigate the road just fine, although they did get spaced out some.

 

Only when I gave them a path with CA did they start to have issues, can someone confirm this is the issue? It would be helpful for the OP to include his mission and track, otherwise, I am just guessing what is going on.

 

Thanks.

 

Ill try to disable CA module on my end, but to be honest, I don't know how to order units using CA on the map ... :( So this might not be the problem.

 

Including a track is - simply said - not always possible.

I know you are asking this 1000 times a day ... :D, but it is a real pain in the ass sometimes to deliver the files.

Mostly because they are simply overwritten (or have 50 MBs or more) until somebody reaches the point where he decides to spend time for reporting (mostly obvious) bugs.

Not to be meant offensive (never I would), just saying. :mad:

 

So coming back to the story: What is your guess?

This guess might help us to find out what is causing the problems (because we can do quick checks on our computers and report back the experiences based on your guess).

The units should follow the street "on road", but just drive somewhere else (woods, houses, ...).

For me it seems they can't look "far enough to the sides" to see the next road sections coming ...

 

My experiences are mostly in Caucasus & PG, where curves, and cross-overs are causing the hardest troubles for AI ground vehicles.

BETA, 2.5.6.45915 (and the last 3 to 5 versions before).

["Flag Set Random Value" Issue]

Odd. Once I swapped mission start for once it started working ok on my end.

 

Hm ... have you created the mission you are talking about (which works) in 2.5.6 or 2.5.5?

["Flag Set Random Value" Issue]

Flag set random value trigger doesn't work and always set 0 in my old mission file that might be created before 2.5.6.

However it works correctly in the new one.

 

Does it occur only in my environment?

 

I have problems with Random() as well, and I am using missions that I started designing when 2.5. came out! I have no solution for you, but I would love to learn how to save hundreds of units and hundreds (yes!) of triggers somwhere, in order to import them all to a newly created mission. This is where DCS has its absolute limits, and makes me crazy sometimes.

[Strage AI climb behavior]

I have the general impression (just a feeling) that ED isn't motivated to learn from the "old days" and older products in some(!) regards.

In some other regards ED is far ahead of all this, and often ahead of us users too (at least me ...).

This is what makes everything so interesting, challenging, and going-through-the-roof sometimes-thingy ... :music_whistling:

 

I think that they currently have not enough resources to spend on the AI for rework of the bigger problems.

I hope they find SMEs in the near future to get a solid knowledge of military procedures (might have them already, but not coded accordingly).

 

This all takes time and resources, and thus money ... as always. :noexpression:

[[REPORTED]compass seems to change pitch in relation to the throttle control (not g?)]

[Option to turn off ALL screen text]

I have Viacom Pro. Even with the settings you guys have mentioned, I can't disable the custom voice text that appears during missions/campaigns with voiceovers. i.e. if you run the standard A10C CAS NTTR instant action mission, the text box appears showing what Wags is saying "A mixed company of T55 tanks etc"...anyone know how to get rid of that?

 

The text is INTENDED to be read.

I think it is a mission designers only chance to bring something to the eye of the pilot (like ACARS is in the real aircraft) ... just as an example. Many missions don't use audio files to tell the pilot something, thus mission designers often use "text only".
