You guys just sit and watch as ED announces that the Huey Cobra moves up in line and puts the Hind somewhear after the next ice age. at best. And then take a wild guess why..

I agree! The Mi-8 has a huge empty (not counting potential soft bodies) cargo hold which takes up about 70% of the fuselage - but every single little 5.56mm bullet seemes to find its way into the engines and set them on fire! This has bugged me for a while, and is definitly fishy! On a side note - engine fire wont go out if you discharge the extinguisers, while fuel is still pumped into them. You need to cut off the fuel valves first!

Maybe we could expect - or at least wish for someone to tell us when your plans gets changed and maybe- just maybe - since we are the paying customers who keep you in business - maybe we could get to know a little bit of why? Sertanly not a demand... just common sense

That single image basically killed the last bit of hope for me. By looking at that single screen of a pretty poor render, with no textures or no materials - it is pretty clear that we wont see the Hind any time soon. I am not expecting it 2019 and 2020 is doubtful. I mean.. seriously... that image looks like something someone threw togeather this afternoon. And I have worked with 3D sculpting... this is not a project that has come very far, I can promise you that. That's like... 3 -4 hours of work tops, depending of the skill of the 3D artist. big :cry_2: for me

OMG Cobra! You guys are INSANE!! Heatblur president! \o/ Tack som fan, för allt arbete ni lägger ned - Heatblurs moduler är bäst! :clap:

I have found, that if you watch a couple of Mi-24 videos on youtube - then think really hard about flying the Hind in DCS, jut before you go to sleep - you can usually dream some pretty wild dreams about it. It's all I have right now :helpsmilie:

We are many, who suffer in scilence. But Mr Wagner at least mentioned the Hind in a recent podcast. He said that it was in development and he mentioned it agian when talking about multicrew. https://www.fighterpilotpodcast.com/podcast/028-air-combat-simulation-gaming/

In all honestly. All you need is a new mission from scratch. One helicopter and more than zero infantry men next to it, set to TRANSPORTABLE in the ME. I could set it up and upload it when I get home, but you guys should really be able to replicate this quite easlily :D

Confirm. Can not load/unload troops. nothig in "All decent" menu

Wait wut!? Who the heck are "Harpo and Groucho"??? oooh you must mean Michael and Daniel? :D

Truly amazing video of our beloved Mi-24 Lots of interesting views of the cockpits and passenger cabin. This video also made me long even more for a tropical/jungle map, but let's not jump ahead of ourselves here :D

Hey folks! I am asking since I have not gotten around to test this baby out yet. How is this multi-unit SAM working in DCS? I managed to open the Editor and I noticed that under the "SA-2" name there were ony launcher, LN units, and the "Fan Song" Radar. Now, Wikipedia mentions, a typical site would use the "P-12 Spoon Rest" radar for early warning - and the "P-15 Flat Face" is also mentioned. Can a SA-2 site be set up in DCS without any of theese radars, just using the Fan Song? And is it possible to include the Spoon Rest and/or Flat Face as well? Will they actually work togeather and do any difference? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-75_Dvina#Site_layout https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-12_radar https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-15_radar

Oh bummer! I remember seeing a forum user posting some images from a mail conversation with ED, where they said they are not planning to fix the VR issues "at the moment" or something like that. but the store does in fact say "VR Support not currently available for this module." That's a real shame because I love CA. It absolutly sucks that you have to quit and restart the game, to drive the ground units. Especially if you are hosting the mission :(

sauce plz

Just thinking about that in a hopefully not too far away future, we'll be able to fly this BEAST of a helicopter, makes my spine tingle :prop: Edit: thanx @Unknown for helping me sorting out the link :)

You can switch to yellow colour on the knob to the tight, just below the HUD

Last time I tried it, Rift Core 2.0 Beta caused alot of issues in DCS for me. Including stuttering and low frame rate. Upon tabbing out, I discovered that, when running DCS in RC Beta, all my USB 3.0 ports, were identified by Rift Core as USB 2.0 I went back to release version and the problems went away.

Allright. Connectors in the model viewer doesn't really mean anything. Unless it is a coded action in the actual simulator, it might as well just be a "preparation" for future content. But let me re-phrase my previous statement. I have never ever seen any unit in DCS World, use smoke launchers. Neither AI vehicles of any type, or player controlled. But I have seen reactive armour getting triggered alot, and it is a common misunderstanding that this is smoke launchers.

The AI can not use smoke launchers for cover. What you are seeing is Active Reactive Armor plates detonating when vehicles get hit. Try firing a .50 cal at enemy tanks or place enemies with high caliber MG's or cannons near your own tank, and position yousrself to show them your rear end. They will shoot their cannons/MG's at you, and you will see your reactive armor detonate and create a smoke cloud.

Hey! Wouldn't it be just great for mission creators if we could get an expanded information panel in the ME? Kind of like this? When you select a date, the boxes would show you the times for sun up and sun down, as well as the moon phace, for the selected date. All this is already in the ME. All you need to do is display it. It would save a lot of husstle. Today you kind of have to set a time and date, save, load the sim and check. Then try again, until you're satisfied. Sure. Information about moon phaces can be googled - but this would make it so much easier. thank you

So where can I find this thread now? And where is the news + teaser images about the Mi-24? :D

Thanx. Will try when I get home

Deadzone set ingame, or in the controller software?

Going from cold, to start, to taxi, to take off. No AA or AG engaged

I use half flaps, as instructed. But for testing purposes, I have tried flaps at both auto and full. Results are the same.
