Single Players: What would win you over to a multiplayer server?
draconus replied to Dangerzone's topic in DCS 2.9
What puts me off MP? schedule and time dedication reliance on 3rd party apps like Discord or SRS poor or no briefing/mission plan (public servers) unrealistic mission settings and randomness of powers on both sides (public servers) DCS MP performance and visual weirdness (jumping/warping aircraft) no RL friends playing risk of meeting griefers, trolls and cheaters (public servers) What I miss in SP? unpredictability and skills of human opponents much better interaction with wingman and other friendly flights more realistic comms between flights and services (ATC or JTAC) -
It's not flyable module - it's AI only. Make sure you either have correct date for the aircraft operational years or remove historic filter (watch icon at the bottom of ME). Also make sure you selected US as the country.

keybinding in UI Layer to navigate radio menu
draconus replied to fabio.dangelo's topic in DCS Core Wish List
It wasn't. 2.9.0 beta added it in October 2023. -
It's a new 3D model. The wing flex is planned to come later in the development [from Wags comment].

Civilian air traffic auto-generation feature
draconus replied to twistking's topic in DCS Core Wish List
What good is air traffic without even 737 or A320 models? -
Does not matter if it's baked texture or dynamic light. Both look different for night and day so it is possible to toggle it. Currently it's only based on night/day hours - it could also be based on new wished-for triggers.

noted What's the deal with missing crew for all the new ground units
draconus replied to twistking's topic in DCS Core Wish List
I agree but it's not that simple to just throw some model there. Every soldier is expected to have his own hit box/DM (if you kill the crew the unit is not dead but is not active either and it changes the gameplay) and IR layer. Its placement may collide with rotation or elevation of the unit/gun unless smartly connected. Anyway I support.- 27 replies

DCS, the REDFOR imbalance and Flankers
draconus replied to cailean_556's topic in DCS Core Wish List
Yes, would be nice and is of course requested for years, every week but the reasons are still the same: redfor sells worse that US made aircraft docs and SME's are more hard to find and use as a source legally even looking for it may endanger ED - especially its russian/belarus employees If it's in newsletter then it's official but mind it won't be full fidelity. Moreover ED claims that they'll look how MiG-29A Fulcrum sales go and if it's good they'll reconsider doing more/modern redfor aircraft. -
Dual factor authentication for free trials?
draconus replied to Beirut's topic in Forum and Site Issues
You can use any other 2FA app ex. Microsoft Authenticator. -
It'd all be cool but we don't even have currently proper VR support for CA.

It looks like the whole map download is the same as any part separately. Only the license(s) decide which part you have unlocked for high res.

DCS Autumn Sale | MiG-29A Progress | DCS Patch
draconus replied to Graphics's topic in Official Newsletters
Nice, thanks for the mini campaign Georgia 2008 Just please fix the mission names, it's a mess. -
It's universal like a Huey. Although it started development and some production during end of the Cold War, most of its life it's NATO helicopter and spread worldwide, not a WarPac. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PZL_W-3_Sokół#Operators

Wrong J pronunciation in startup training mission
draconus replied to draconus's topic in Missions and Campaigns
Since it's a single J letter he should read it as Джей correctly. G (джи) is simply another letter. I said it's minor so don't accuse me of nitpicking and everyone reads HUD as a word, not H.U.D, so Idk what's your point. -
Question for Advanced modeling of other jets.
draconus replied to LaCiKa's topic in DCS Core Wish List
F-14 has both RWR and radar on very high level. F-15E has both AA and AG radar on very high level. Idk how realistic its RWR is. Bluefor weapons are constantly improved but most of them are already at high modeling level, esp. 3D models, fuzes, guidance and FMs. They work on the better blast damage and fragmentation. Incendiary is also in plans. -
No, TAA is like worse version of DLAA and no machine learning is involved. Yes. I choose DLAA - dots visibility is not that much of a problem for me but I can't stand the shimmering of MSAA, or the fences and other jaggies. Don't even try none-AA - serious eyes injury risk - and you'll also want that performance with AA then. The ASW crap is the worst, not related to AA though.

They recently corrected bombs' power, damage points of buildings and also some units.

Mach limits for fuel tank, and ground weapons.
draconus replied to CrazyGman's topic in DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum
In one of my docs I can see: 1. for bombs -100 and -250 or -500 (up to 4pcs) - G limits +5/-1.5 2. for 2 KMGUs - G limits +5/-1 3. for 6 -500 bombs - G limits +4/-1.5 -
That depends on your throttle and brakes operation and it looks like it's not unrealistic, just operator mistake.

Potential mistake in MiG-29A FAQ about R-27ER and R-27ET
draconus replied to quantum97's topic in DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum
Yes, yes, yes. You can have R-27 on inner pylons and R-73 on outer pylons and you'll be able choose between them.
