nice, you deliver! to be honest i didn't read the whole thread, so from my understanding this needs to be a server side mod? about the srs: what are you missing?

without AWACS you're mostly blind in DCS ... i don't know if there would still be GCI functions possible without it ? if this would be the case, you could give it a try in one mission, but if it isn't .. i believe it would kill the fun pretty fast (i am afraid ...) But hey, we're here for experimenting aren't we ? :D

hm the only way to bring people on comms is by forcing it ... ddcs is doing it with discord for example - you need to be on comms, otherwise you're kicked i wouldn't go THAT far, but something has to be done here somehow ... i for myself seldom join srs as long as there is no GCI - for me the GCI is somehow the moderator of the comms and this leads to productive gameplay ... so we need more people on that role (red side counts on it ;) )

absolutely!!

it seems it depends on time ... most of the time i feel it is even, like yesterday it was 7 blue, 1 red ... an hour later it was even again ... i wouldn't see the viggen on the red side, and wouldn't recommend switching it to the other side (as it was designed to counter a soviet invasion ;) )

nope it is not a big deal, not at all, i've installed TS and SRS ... my only issue with 2 different comm-platforms is: you divide the total users of the whole system to 2 independent comm platforms it would be great if SRS could be implemented as channel in TS (via the server) and all could use more or less the same platform - if that is possible of course! ;) Nevermind, i'll add the cold war server to my TS-Server list and give it a try with the mentioned process :thumbup:

I would love to see more people on SRS - and a bad thing on SRS is: you never know who is on voice don't get me wrong, i really love this little program, but some new features would be great (or am i missing them?? ) However: what would you think about enforcing SRS for the server-usage? (i know i was quite silent myself yesterday, but it was quite late and didn't want to wake anybody ;) )

did some test with your server, quite weird thing: it is not visible in list. without being connected with srs, dcs can't connect to it via IP being connected to the srs server, connection is suddenly possible - srs telling me that the server i connect to has a different ip. so from my point of view there seems to be some sort of names-mismatch on server side could this be possible?

or something like this, exactly quatem! it would make life much easier...

wishful thinking :D

something like a mirror standard button for it to turn on is "m" i believe

good news!!:thumbup:

Not bringing home the jet is seldom punished. What would the increase of AA units help in this case? Could aircraft limitations rather be the solution?

wiring a matrix isn't that of a problem, you just have to thing through what you want to push when ... and everything is fine. but great to know that there are boards with that amount of possible inputs. if you plan on going on a bigger box or onto a real simpit, you will need other boards and a good plan anyway ;)

Absolutely agree!!

you could try this one (if you haven't already learned about it): i used this as base for my own box here grouping is good and neccessary, since you have to be able to use your swiches blindly ;)

i was in my mig tonight and got hit by (maybe) a missile + gunshots. my left wing was missing, but i was able to fly around and even get back to base without any difference in flight behaviour ... weird ...

nice! on multiplayer or AI choppers?

Thanks, i love the Box myself :D From what i recall it was a arduino leonardo... i can look when i am at home again. Maybe a native joystick Controller is easier to use since You won't have to think about programming it, but since i used the libraries and program from the web and modified it to my needs it wasn't that of a problem... Depends on your abilities ;) Main thing was to design a good useable Box, do You have a picture in your mind of what it should do and look like?

Its Not about that i Wish it to be this way, but i wouldn't Count on any mig29 anytime soon :(

i built a small box with the following: 7 on-off-on switches on the left 1 7" touch display in the middle (for radar) 3 increment rotaries + buttons on the right 4 push buttons on the right for the controller i used an arduino board + virtual joystick program works like a charm pictures attached ;)

yes but it would hold off many people who don't own choppers. so any exclusive mission for choppers should be in a tournament, but i am afraid a chopper-only mission in regular server service, it would mean that the server is nearly empty and as far as i know, the main topic of this server remains as F5 against MiG21, which is good ;)

those are realistic (one in the works at least) ... a mig29 will always be an unfullfilled dream i am afraid

i don't believe a mission exclusively for helicopters will help much - since variety is the key to immersion in some way... a mission with some special objectives for helicopters would be great. the main issue with helis is the problem that there are currently only 4 helis available, and most of us might only own the huey... ;) however, i'll give it a try next time

as far as i know, the f10 map doesn't show your position ... so you need to navigate with your onboard tools and about the f14: a decision has been made that this will not be available on the server, regardless of the setting
