  1. Although the old 2.8 spotting wasn’t perfect, it was better than the new iteration, especially in VR. Also noticed last night every ground target is visible as a large black square from many miles away.. kinda takes the fun out of finding targets. Running a Reverb G2.
  2. Agree 100% with the original post from motoadve - DCS is really shaping up extremely well in every aspect apart from pilot fatigue. It's got to be assumed the pilot on average would be mid-low twenties having had a few months previous flight training. Nothing special, they learned most of it on the job including fight for your life manoeuvering. Some of the negative G chuff i've seen in Storm of War in the past would've given the pilot an instant brain bleed. In my opinion what we have already is fairly good, but the effects just need to last longer and blur the vision much more readily, similar to the effects we have relating to the damage model, disorientating the pilot so they can't cheese it by stirring the salad with the flight stick whilst retaining perfect situational awareness.
  3. An option for .50 cals means it wouldn’t be a MkIXc. Anyway over-cooling issue seems to be fixed, thanks chaps!
  4. Tried the Mossie again for the first time in ages in hopes of being able to actually trim the thing out, but alas tis still the same. Any news, chaps? It is still unflyable unfortunately. I’ve had the module since release and have not once been able to use it properly.
  5. This little tickler of an image from the 2023 video. It a screenshot or real photo?
  6. Gotcha. Well main point is the engines should no longer seize or fail when run for long periods at economy cruise, this being the original point of the thread. Thanks for the updates:)
  7. Does The Fighter Collection not have good information on the mk.IX that Nick could tap into? The above is from an official publication for the Merlin 66, so relevant to the mk.IX. Revision dated May '44. Can send the whole document if needed. Hope it helps.
  8. Agreed. Spit is exactly the same as it was before:(
  9. Also getting crashes at random times. My logs are identical to Badass1982's. This is with a Mod-less install.
  10. @NineLine @BIGNEWY Hey chaps, any news or hints on any progress or new projects or tweaks or assets or ‘owt for ww2? Been quiet for a little while now:) Cheers, Wiggy
  11. Very well explained StiC. This is exactly what I encounter too. It’s a fantastic module, truly, but this bug has made it completely unenjoyable and impractical to fly. All my mates are buzzing around at zero feet having a ball! Please fix asap! Thanks, Wiggy
  12. Perfect, thanks DangerZone. gave it a try but needs OS sanitising which we can’t do on our server. Trying to figure a way round it..
  13. Do you have some more info on doing this through SRS? Cheers, Wiggy
  14. 100% agree with Fenrir here. I no longer fly the Mosquito because of this issue, it saps the enjoyment of flying when these bizarre pitch moments occur. I agree it feels like you reach some kind of threshold in airspeed and the trim suddenly changes (not visibly) to such an extent you have to make extreme corrections. It also feels like there’s a HUGE deadzone when this happens, particularly on my extended control stick. Also to note, I have a P-47 sized stick extension so can fly the Mosquito with zero curve, and the pitching oddities still occur. It feels like the physical input from the stick suddenly translates differently to the game/aircraft, thus it wouldn’t show up as an issue if I were to send a track. I’ve tested it with the visible control indicator on. I think the only way would be for one of you chaps at ED to grab a FFB2 and give it a bit of testing. You’ll notice it very quickly. Cheers, Wiggy
  15. Hi, I've been looking around but no luck so far.. Does anyone know if there is a parameter to use which will simply return the map name? ('The Channel, 'Marianas' etc) Thanks, Wiggy
  16. Also occurs in the P-47. Not FFB specific - a friend who flies with a Warthog also had this visible shaking at the same time as I did, in the same mission. I guess with FFB it’s just much easier to notice. Agree, only occurring since last update. New turbulence effects perhaps?
  17. Now I have got used to it it feels much more natural. The longer throw is excellent. Would highly recommend it.
  18. +1 it’s been a while since we heard anything on this. Any news @NineLine @BIGNEWY ?
  19. Nice one MAD, Is David Red still flying out of interest?
  20. Hi Mogster, Yes the M10’s weren’t popular but still, irrelevant to the point of OP. Wiggy
  21. @NineLine Request for the addition of the M10 tubes to the D-30(early) and D-30. Link here: 42-28382 | American Air Museum in Britain to a 56th Fighter Group (ETO) aircraft in August 1944 with them mounted. This is a D-26-RA, as stated, produced way before the D-28-RE, which is our D30(early). Also out of curiosity, why is it named a D-30(early) when it's a D-28-RE? Weird. Have also attached another image from the Osprey '56th Fighter Group' book of the same aircraft, stating the date. Production serial numbers also stated here, also proving the aircraft a D-26-RA: P-47 Thunderbolt variations and production (368thfightergroup.com) (at the bottom of the page) Below another image of a 56th Fighter Group aircraft in August 1944, this time a D-25-RE with the tubes mounted. From the book 'Zemke's Wolfpack'. Anyway, if the tubes were being fitted to these aircraft in August '44 before the D-30-RE was even on the production line, I believe they shouldn't be limited to only the D-40. In our historical server, having to jump in a D-40 which only served in the Pacific in order to use these rockets over France, just isn't cool!:) Thanks, Wiggy
