Feel free to ask any questions but it's best to make new thread unless you have the same problem as in some existing thread. Subforum for Su-25T: https://forum.dcs.world/forum/818-su-25t-free-with-dcs-world/ Subforum for Flaming Cliffs aircraft: https://forum.dcs.world/forum/102-dcs-flaming-cliffs/ Payment & activation related: https://forum.dcs.world/forum/54-payment-and-activation/ General issues: https://forum.dcs.world/forum/474-general-bugs/

@CTB you really should mention that you're using DCS 2.5.6 as many parts of the sim, maps, modules or missions may behave and look quite differently now.

OK, so if they keep 2.5.6 operable you can buy and download any FC3 aircraft as standalone module but NOT F-5E FC, MiG-15bis FC or F-86F FC, because they were released with DCS 2.9.6. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/modules/filter/price-world-to-20/type-is-jet_engine_plane/apply/ You can use trial for testing before buying.

It will not be discussed publically. Send PM to @NineLine regarding commercial license.

You mean the lead 227 returned to escort the Su-25s and you followed him? Then got "Thank you" from the 425 flight near the base? (I'm just guessing basing on the triggers) I flew this mission and have the same problem as Funky Money. The lead did not go back to escort after "227 flight, resume escort" message. He kept flying orbit so I followed the Su-25s instead and landed but there were no more messages since. Su-25s landed and the lead 227 eventually came back too but something is off with the task push to escort. Track (file expires after 7 days) - https://limewire.com/d/BqHyd#vOqi8GCqXb

Idk about other aircraft but RBM in F-15E uses a single bar azimuth sweeps and that's what is shown on the scope as a result correctly. Others can have different display method, different mode or are just wrongly modeled. If it's MSA radar (and they all are) it has to have a narrow beam moving laterally and just can't scan the whole elevation with one sweep or I am missing something.

DM based on location and internal parts is fully operational for WW2 aircraft afaik. The lesser DM is applied to other aircraft but still based on aircraft parts. Ships and ground units do have general HP but there are still some some calculations and hit locations considered. Ex. front armor is tougher than sides, top and back on the MBT or a ship will burn and have damage applied more or less at the hit locations. At some % damage it will start to smoke, slow down, then stop moving and stop shooting, until it's totally killed/burned/exploded/sunk. There are some long term ED plans to implement better DM for both aircraft and ground units.

You should've started here: https://forum.dcs.world/forum/482-game-crash/ Upload your dcs.log. It's not normal for the DCS to just crash because of the low VRAM and it's not the hard requirement either. Also do file integrity check for DCS in Steam - it's a common crashing reason.

Can you upload a short track and screenshot? btw: Why do you post it in "Su-27 for DCS World" subforum?

If the E-shop does not offer it then you can't buy any deprecated version. Even if you buy the license for FC2024 you may not be able to download the modules in the old version and for sure not for the newer FC aircraft: F-5E, MiG-15 and F-86.

Sherman is currently a free asset in DCS core.

It already started:

Read the OP: No, it won't work with campaigns or any missions apart from simplest and basic setups currently.

The game will use whatever amount of RAM and VRAM it needs when available. When VRAM is full the rest is going to RAM and the cleaning/data moving process can affect performance. When RAM is full the rest goes to the disk page file and yet again cleaning/data moving process will affect performance even more. When there's no room on the page file it will crash. Current DCS reqs: Minimum system requirements (LOW graphics settings): OS 64-bit Windows 10; DirectX11; CPU: Intel Core i3 at 2.8 GHz or AMD FX; RAM: 16 GB; Free hard disk space: 200 GB; Discrete video card NVIDIA/AMD 6GB; requires internet activation. Recommended system requirements (HIGH graphics settings): OS 64-bit Windows 10/11; DirectX11; CPU: Core i5+ at 3+ GHz or AMD FX / Ryzen; RAM: 32 GB ; Free hard disk space: 500 GB on Solid State Drive (SSD) + extra space for paid content ; Discrete video card NVIDIA/AMD with 8GB VRAM+; joystick; requires internet activation. Recommended VR systems requirements (VR graphics settings): OS 64-bit Windows 10; DirectX11; CPU: Core i5+ at 3+ GHz or AMD FX / Ryzen; RAM: from 32 GB; Free hard disk space: 500 GB on Solid State Drive (SSD); Discrete video card NVIDIA/AMD from 8GB VRAM; Joystick; requires internet activation. But it's rarely hardware limit. More like a recommendation. If you use High textures settings on new DCS maps and modules it will eat RAM and VRAM easily, even above 16GB. It also depends on the mission.

It might stand for tactical/temporarily assigned channel/talk around channel (only HB knows) but Jester radio sub-menu would never set TACAN.

Jester can tune TACAN and does it correctly. In your track you kept choosing radio from Jester menu, which he also sets correctly. You should have asked for Navigation > TACAN > Tune TAC > CVN-71.

Works fine here. Make sure you're in nav mode. I had to hit 1 key twice to get it to work with waypoints after starting the mission. The numbers are shown on the HUD next to the distance.

There are plenty of apps, most are free (ex. gpu-Z) but also built-in windows task manager has RAM and GPU tabs if you keep it running in background. @Nealius Check the DCS special options tab for F-15E. You can try different CPU core settings for radar calculations.

Check if you hit VRAM or RAM limits in this case.

Guess you like to waste time of yours and ours either when you could have saved a short track and present a dcs.log a few days ago to get an answer in hours. It's probably what @Ivandrov says - you're stuck in AA because of Guns selected on Weapon Select Switch. Move to Sidewinder and you're free to select other modes.

You can choose USAF aggressors or Combined joint red forces to have full choice of aircraft. Make sure to also turn off historic filter (clock icon at the bottom) so the date doesn't limit your choices. It's Stennis (no deck crew atm) so you have to hook to the cat and launch yourself - there are keybinds for that, default U and Shift+U.

You still act like you didn't know so I'll reiterate. We're talking about fictional animated view of the RIO within the fictional comms menu (which is still functioning as designed). I don't know how it even got there in the first place, maybe from some artist's dream, but fortunately there is special option to turn it off. Have you noticed F-14 gets very little work since a year or so and there are some real bugs waiting to be fixed? It's reported, prepare for a long wait and move on.

Hence the wish

OP specifically said radar and also says "It moves downward as expected" which excludes IRST. Also the thread got marked with "solution" already.
