I'm sorry but what an absolutely nonesense answer. You do realise that this is all make believe don't you? - from the moment you double click on the DCS desktop icon its all just smoke and mirrors with pixels thrown onto a 2d or VR screen. DCS is a very different product for a whole variety of customers. Some love the flight modelling, some the systems, others the fictional battles, I could go on and on. Personally for me, DCS is first and foremost a flight simulator and frankly, without the proper interaction with ATC, Marshal, LSO, Tower or whoever, it remains sadly lacking in meeting "my" personal preferences. If DCS meets your needs completely then that's great. But please don't argue against features other want from a flight sim which are not currently implemented. You already have part of what you need anyway. Just disable flight reports and subtitles and ignore the "comms" that does exist. Obviously if your arguement is for it to be done fully, or not at all, thats a different arguement entirely. Kind Regards, Gary

Anyone?

Hi, Under options/sound tab the "Pilot Speech" tick box is now inoperative. Ideally I just want rid of the pilot's voice - can this be done easily? I know Voiceattack provides that function but I really do not want to run VA just to achieve this if possible another way? Kind Regards, Gary

Despite a few niggles, I think the Harrier is an amazing module and well worth the money. Then you get a fast jet and helo in one package!! Regards, Gary

Could you not do this yourself? - at least partly. Update to open beta - save what you need (i.e. documentation and other non core files) - revert to stable and add in the documents and files you need from OB? Regards, Gary

My thanks too. Well done ED. Regards, Gary

"Everything is subject to change" you seem to forget ED are constantly saying this too. And just to be clear - my post was based on this being a jesture by ED in response to COVID-19 and people being stuck at home. Regards, Gary

You have that free choice.

If ED have made this decision as some form of COVID-19 response then they should be applauded in my view. I'm sure all early adopters would understand and support this move too. Regards, Gary

You can.

Now that's service!!

How funny would it be if Ed closed this thread now stuck on page 99!!

Great to see mention of this in the newsletter. Just curious why Case 1,2 & 3 are prioritised over land based ATC? I appreciate the Hornet is the ED flagship module but not everyone flies this. There are many existing and legacy users (of many years standing) of the other 14 or so modules that now have a longer wait to experience the new changes coming. I'm thrilled for the Hornet drivers of course but personally would have liked to have been able to benefit from the improved ATC stuff sooner rather than later! Regards, Gary

Just type "Falklands" into the user file search. I've tried a couple which were really good. Regards, Gary

Welcome, Youtube is your friend. Lots of videos on the ME available. Best wishes, Gary

Bit of a punt on my part but seems patern altitude is 1500ft and the max APP / DEP is listed as 2000ft - so at or below 2000ft but not lower than 15000ft? Confirmation or education if I'm wrong would be most welcome? Regards, Gary

Control configs are now in your saved games DCS folders - not the install folders. (something like below) C:\Users\yourname\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config

Stop-Watch works if you use the keybinds for start and stop. Regards, Gary

Hi, This will either be a great idea, or reasons not so obvious, a very bad one! However, My suggestion is a new thread is added (in either "stable, beta version or both) which lists "known bugs" I lose track of the number of posts I read where the trail ends with the words "known bug" from a dev or mod. That and the huge number of seperate threads relating to the same issue that the mods then need to merge. Harrier TPOD and MAVS being recent examples. If each of the stable and/or Beta threads had a new list of known issues people could check on before posting, I'm sure it would be useful? Sure there might be an extremely long list (too long to post perhaps) but if so, just the top 10 or 20 would be helpful wouldnt it? I know there was a recent move to tag threads with (Reported or Resolved) but I'm not sure this is still being followed? Just a thought. Kind regards, Gary

I'm having TGP, DMT,SS etc problems but deleting the module?? Could you elaborate as to why please? - rather than rebind or similar? Edit: Disregard - It's mentioned in the video. Regards, Gary

Excellent Site. Thank you. Bookmarked. Gary

Personally I would like to thank ED for the rather out of character announcement of dates! I'm sure all the adults here will appreciate these still might change, but I find it refreshing that rather than being told "soon", for once I actually know what that means for these two highly anticipated products. Congrats and fingers crossed for no last min roadblocks. Kind Regards, Gary

This. Regards, Gary

Same here.

No worries Foss. Appreciate you trying to help anyway.
