  1. It prevents the enemy radars from locking on you until the burn through range. Then you want to turn it off, because some missiles can home onto your ECM signal.
  2. Yeah, I did remember it wrong, these do not lit up player cockpit in F1 pilot view but they are definitely not mere textures - they do lit up the runway, grass, the aircraft itself including the cockpit in external view - that makes them pretty much dynamic lighting.
  3. Oh, and if you survive, you are the CSAR pilot who needs CSAR, good time I'm proponent of small first steps. If things are well received devs can improve on it if time allows. First steps are minimalistic: 1. add raft for pilots that had one equipped IRL (or add ME option) 2. add some way of location (radio beacon, signal flare, light, sea dye marker) and contact (radio with option to call for CSAR) 3. make ejected pilot as object visible for others (MP too) and AI, vulnerable to fire and explosions 4. add AI task CSAR to fly, land and pickup you or other AI pilot 5. add faster movement option for downed pilots Now get to da choppa!
  4. We'll get La-7 "soon".
  5. You can already put ground EWR with data link and it will function the same as AWACS (in GCI role) - that's for air targets. You can also have friendly flights reporting air and ground units they detect by radio calls. Both are core features - don't need CA. To simulate IADS properly though you either have to go geek with ME triggers or download some existing mods. CA is basically either for vehicle playing or commanding the battlefield like in RTS game.
  6. The whole reason for LGBs was precision, far beyond what was achievable with dumb bombs. It is used in the great mission "Watching The Devildog" where JTACs are calling for CAP and lase the targets.
  7. You're not new here so you should know that you're just reporting a bug and then move on. ETA on a fix is anything from next patch to never.
  8. My settings tested last night with Q3 on cable: - Oculus Link: 80Hz/1.4x, quality preference - DCS: PD 1.0, DLAA +autoexec.cfg: DLSS_Preset = 'K' HUD_MFD_after_DLSS = true Never seen better image quality before in this HMD So if your Ryzen is good enough (should be) you'll be fine with your 3080 apart from overfilling 10GB VRAM. My 4070S is at similar performance level but CPU is lacking.
  9. Afair runway lights from units that are part of the map do lit up the cockpit. Edit: No, it doesn't.
  10. That's not true. There are some dynamic lights in this map and more can be added using placed units, weapons and by the player aircraft or vehicle. Lighting is part of gfx engine, not related to map tech and can be added at any time. This is not limitation, just a choice.
  11. Missions are done by module devs and are stored in aircraft folders.
  12. There's already an option for cockpit labels highlighted by the mouse cursor.
  13. I don't know if your wifi router and connection is good enough. The best option is to have high bandwidth wifi 6E AP connected by ethernet cable to your PC and dedicate this wifi to Q3 only. Make PC use another wifi for the internet connection then. Wired by USB-C is another option but choose high bandwidth (2-5Gbps) one.
  14. If it still crashes you'll have to try with clean DCS, meaning no mods and these will have to be cleaned (make a backup!): \saved games\dcs\mods \saved games\dcs\scripts
  15. Please explain for us, mere aviators
  16. I believe you know the answers already and I don't find your questions about PS5 or podcasts relevant to the topic at hand.
  17. No, you're trolling. There's no "problem". Wiki has full, most useful and widely accepted definition.
  18. That depends on the module's radar implementation. Afaik F-15E and M-2000C have aspect-based RCS implemented. Idk about stores' RCS or roll angle dependance.
  19. If the whole wiki article won't help you nothing will. The main point is that video game is a computer program that lets you play and have fun using the computer, input and display devices. And the other take away is that simulation is subgenre of video games. That's all to it.
  20. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game
  21. Please, upload your \saved games\dcs\logs\dcs.log from your last crash.
  22. Not my experience. I always fly with random failures set to on and failures are very rare.
