Thank you Razbam, this is good news.

Their most recent update has stated they will be putting all of their developments efforts into finishing the Harrier, Mirage, and Mig-19. So that only leaves modeling/texturing to do on other aircraft. I wouldn't expect any significant news for sometime but personally I think this is the right move.

So with the most recent update my TMS and DMS have stopped working in my Harrier and F-14 but they still work in the F-18. Also when I go into the keybindings menu and try to rebind them it detects them and rebinds but they still don't work in the cockpit. All seems pretty weird. I'm going to run a repair after work tonight but in case that doesn't work anyone have any idea whats going on?

I actually have mixed feeling on this. I'd love to see a Pacific theater and carrier to carrier battles, but I'm also really excited about the F-8. Not sure where I'd rather see them put resources.

Rumor mill says they are working on it but are unsure of the ability to do everything they want to right now so they are holding off on making an announcement.

Right now its not possible unless the mission creator put the waypoints in while making the mission. There was talk of adding a mode where you fire and it automatically selects a radar target. Hopefully it will be added as it was reported the missile does have that ability.

Great write up Overstratos. I really appreciate your candor and transparency regarding the Mig. I feel much better about having purchased it now. Thank you

If they want to make the French version to draw more people in great. But it's the Vietnam version I want to buy.

Charge me whatever you want for an A-6 module...

I've hit M2.0 clean at 29,000. Was drag racing a 15 that was able to slowly pull away.

point track update

Well as much i'd like to see that as well, I don't think it's realistic. Either heatblur is neck deep in the A-6 or the 14 is the last we see of them in DCS due to the Meta acquisition. Hopefully that isn't the case:cry:

I hope that Dev's see how much people are enjoying the RIO spot and it gives them the confidence to make an E-2 or similar.

So I'm able to hook targets on the TID with the HCU while in track while scan. To single target track I switch the HCU to radar mode and use the DDD. It can still be difficult though. I was going nuts trying to lock a mig-29 but it turns out it was skimming a ridge line and I kept losing line of sight, so there could always be something like that going on.

Yes, haha. Which has been quite obnoxious by the way in my squadron. I'm thinking about changing my name. Jester wasn't even a RIO in the movie heatblur! I guess I could go with Viper, Tom Skerritt is pretty cool, but Michael Ironside is cooler. Edit: Forgot my squadron already has a viper.

Only way I've beaten him is by flying a canyon at full burner until he hits a wall...

I bought this only expecting to be the pilot. Well I decided I should have an understanding of what my RIO was doing and now I can't believe how much fun I'm having as RIO. Flying multicrew and having someone depending on you to do your job so they can do theirs is so satisfying.

I agree with you Chuck and I really hope to see the 101 and AvioDev be successful. It's great for training purposes and fun in its own right when doing light attack/coin operations. Really looking forward to see their F-1 come to life!

Yes please.

Is that modeled? I thought I read on the forum somewhere it's glide only.

That's great to hear Baltic. I certainly love flying her, looking forward to having her systems mature.

+1

The F-16 shouldn't take as long as most DCS modules because it will be very similar to the Hornet as far as systems go. So as long as you stick around another year or 2 you should be good :)

I have a heavily over clocked 1080FE that's water cooled. I don't have any problems reading gauges in the cockpit but I have heard some people complain that. Best looking cockpit so far. I occasionally drop a few frames, but its not enough to irritate me. If you dont already though make sure you open the oculus debug tool and use it to disable asynchronus spacewarp. It helps DCS VR in all modules, especially when your low to the ground and the wing tips start to stutter/blur.

It is hypoxia and I missed it on the assisted startup as well. theres an oxygen switch toward the left rear of the cockpit by some hoses on your seat. Hopefully someone else can be more helpful with its location.
