Hello, everyone! I know the Starforce-Steam key change, and all the stuff associated with it, but what modules (that aren't really old ones like A-10C, Ka-50, FC3, P-51D, etc.) came before the M-2000C? In particular, can the Su-27 Ultimate Argument Campaign be activated on Standalone, if purchased through Steam?
-
Okay, this all sounds good! Will I be able to uninstall the other versions? My computer doesn't have the memory for 3 DCS Worlds, 2 is already pushing it. Out of curiosity, can the Su-27 Ultimate Argument Campaign be activated on Standalone? I purchased it through Steam.

Hmm...It appears that the checkbox wasn't checked at all in the first place, and when I tried a few missions with the MiG-29S and Su-27S, they performed fine (I didn't check the box). Just a bug, I guess. Odd.
-
No, I don't think so, because I was carrying the same thing on both wings, and I don't trim.

Hello, everyone! I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I think it is. Anyways, I'm thinking about updating to DCS World 2.5 (when it comes out, obviously), and I was wondering a few things. Thanks in advance! 1-Will 2.5 just be an update to 2.2, or will it be all by itself, needing to be completely downloaded again? 2-Because it has an improved Caucasus map, will Nevada and Normandy be able to be activated on it? 3-If I completely uninstall and remove the 2 versions (1.5.8 Hot Fix 2 and 2.2.0 Open Alpha) I already have, will I be able to activate the modules I already have (FC3, Su-27, NTTR, Su-27 Campaign) on it for free, or will I need to pay again? 4-Lastly, and this is sort of unrelated, if I install FC3, and then later install the Su-27 (which I'd only do if I could re-install the stuff for free), would the icon on the bottom of the screen for the Su-27 come back?

Hello, everyone! I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I think it is. Anyways, just today, when I opened a mission for the MiG-29S, it started barrel rolling without me telling it to. I tried the Su-27S, and the same thing happened. Why? And how do I fix it? I didn't try any other aircraft, but I imagine it's the same. However, when I tried DCS World 2.2 (I have 1 and 2 installed, and the spinning was with 1), everything went fine. Again, why? Should I set a deadzone, or something?:helpsmilie:

Hello everyone! I would like to learn how to mod, but I don't really know a lot. Do I need a modding program? Do I need to know C++, calculus, or any sort of programming? All I really know is that it will be very hard, and take a while to learn. I only know math up the 8th grade, and I'm not finished with that yet. Any way to make starting easy? Just a side note: just now, I've discovered that my aircraft in DCS World 1.5.8 are suddenly doing barrel rolls when I start a mission, but not in 2.2.0. Why? And how do I fix this?:helpsmilie:

Beginners Guide to DCS World Aircraft Mods
FlankerMan replied to RedBeard2's topic in How To Mod for DCS World
Do you think I could do it? I don't know any calculus, and I'm at 8th grade with math and geometry. I don't really know any programming. -
Thank you for all the replies, but is there a mental countdown that can be done until the missile goes pitbull?
-
Okay, thanks! I do try to launch at a high altitude, but probably not high enough, and I probably don't launch it with enough speed, though I'm usually at a pretty straight angle. Um, what's pitbull? And is there a good way to tell when that is? I usually keep the target locked the entire length of flight, like the R-27R/ER, anyways.
-
Hello, everyone! I have FC3, and I sometimes fly the MiG-29S, and I was wondering if there is anything special I should be doing to have the RVV-AE missile perform better. It's pretty good at short-range engagements, but is there something I can do to increase its launch range, and increase the probability of it hitting? Thanks in advance!

12, my first year.

Okay, cool! By the way, what exactly is a JF-17? A Chinese cross between an F-16 and an F/A-18?
-
Hello, everybody! This might not be the right place to put this, but I'm not sure where else to. I've done a bit of research, and it seems like there's a Mirage F1 and an F-4E coming, but I'd like to know what else is coming, as well as who is making the upcoming modules, aforementioned and otherwise.
-
Okay, thanks! I can bring up the chat box, though it's kind of inconvenient to type while flying, and the keyboard isn't usable when it's up (which is why it's helpful to have a joystick:))
-
Hello, everybody! I have a few questions that I'd like to know the answers to, but I'm not sure where to find them. 1-How do I know what a password is when trying to enter a password protected server? Do I have to become 'friends' with the hoster, or what? 2-How do I open a chat box?
-
Okay, that'd be great! I don't know how often I'll be able to play, but it sounds fun. I fly on Nevada, though.

Hello, everybody! Not sure if there's already a thread for this, please direct me to one if there is. Anyways, I fly the Su-27, and I'm working on improving my combat skills. I'm all good with cold start, taxi, takeoff, landing, and ground attack, and I'm okay with BVR combat skills, but I'd like to improve. Any good ways? I'm pretty good at close air combat, but I probably could be better, I'm not super good with cannon, and I don't like BVR combat that much. Help!
-
Yeah, a flyable Su-24M, or even an F-111F, would be nice. And what about a more advanced MiG-29, like maybe the carrier-capable, 9-pylon MiG-29K? A flyable MiG-27 might be nice, to.

My personal wish list for future DCS planes
FlankerMan replied to Grippen7's topic in DCS Core Wish List
I didn't know the Mirage F1 was in development. Where do you guys get all this information?! I want it! :) -
Oh, okay, 'us' is, well, I didn't really know what was best to say. I guess just other people here. Can you direct me to a few good threads like this one?

Hello, everyone! This discussion is for you to tell us about which aircraft you would like to see made into playable aircraft, whether they're already in the game, but only AI, or are completely new. Here's my list: Su-30MKI/MKA/MKM/SM "Flanker-H/C": I love this small sub-family of Flankers, and I think somebody's already on them: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=193893. Looks awesome! I especially like the Su-30SM's sleek black paint scheme. I don't know if there are any more I'd particularly like to fly at the moment, but here are a few that might be nice to at least have for AI control: Su-30MKK/MK2 "Flanker-G": Basically non-canard, Chinese versions of the MKI, but with more fuel, and less maneuverability (no thrust-vectoring). Eurofighter Typhoon FGR.4: A cool, very capable European multi-role 4.5 generation fighter. Tornado ADV F.3: Typhoon's predecessor, a nice 3rd gen interceptor. And, obviously, any other Su-27 variant (maybe Su-35S or Su-37MR). ;)
-
Yeah, sales are nice. As I asked, if I got NTTR and anything else on 2.1, would I be able to activate it for free on 2.5 when it comes out? Also, if I switch FC3 to standalone, will I still have it on Steam?
-
Hello, everybody! I'm not sure if this discussion belongs here, but I don't know where else to put it. As the title indicates, I have some questions, which pertain to sales and other stuff. Thanks in advance! 1-Does Eagle Dynamics have sales? If so, when are they, how long are they, and how much money off are they usually? This is my first year, so I don't know much. I started on Steam. 2-If I get DCS World 2.1 Early Access, along with NTTR and the Su-27 for Christmas this year, then get 2.5 when it comes out, will I be able to activate NTTR and Su-27 for free on 2.5?

The SU-30 FAMILY PROJECT is Back
FlankerMan replied to Gizmondo's topic in Utility/Program Mods for DCS World
Okay, cool! I didn't know you designed them. Neat! As for its being free: Yes yes yes! Woohoo! I really like it, and I am in no way protesting, but why is it free?
