    P-47 stall speed with flaps up is 99kts or thereabouts. Going vertical for a 2000ft altitude gain then nosing over for level flight without losing much more than 100ft in the process at 83kts with flaps up, two bombs, and two bazooka rocket racks is a violation of physics. 

    I was angry seeing an AI P47 climbing like an UFO in front of my Corsair's nose.

    Yes, I have. Always won against those.

     

    I bet you can't win a BF109. beside A8 is a less powerful plane than a Dora. I don't know what level of AI you used, but this AI plane is somehow .... stupid. With decent AI, they always try to out climb you at first.  
    Edit: I tried against the A8, it's easy.

    I disagree. When I tried the maximum speed, I got 344 kts (637 km/h) at 20000 ft ( 6096 meters ) From my experience people forget to close engine cowl flaps that makes huge difference in drag.

    Have you tried dogfighting the other planes like BF109 or FW190 ? 
    Max speed in a straight and level flight is nothing. 
    I'm not a rookie, I have years of experience dogfighting in IL-2.

    At this point I know generally how to fly the Corsair, but I don't well understand how to fight with it. So far most of the tutorials I've seen are focused on basic airmanship, but I'm wondering if anyone has seen any good resources on tactics for it. Currently I'm finding it extremely challenging to defeat the Bf 109 K-4 since it doesn't seem like I can outrun it or out turn it. 

    + dogfighting the Bf109 is really hard. I got ass-kicked by AI 5-6 times to 1. The only chance I got is head-on which was rarely happening because the Bf109 is faster and can climb better. 

    With boom and zoom tactics I managed to beat a slower P-47. But most of the time, the Bf109 easily got to my 6. Apparently turn and burn doesnt work with Bf109, even it is hard to out turn the P-47 in a horizontal dogfight.

    The Corsair in DCS is very different from IL-2. I was a IL-2 player and familiar with dogfighting tactics. In IL-2 the F4U Corsair can do BnZ and TnB quite good. 

  5. I used to like the F4U corsair until flying this module in DCS. It is slow like a snail, handling like a brick. 
    I used to love this plane in IL-2. But flying this plane in DCS is like a pain in the a$$. Acceleration is a misery, turning is a gambling. Although I can land this plane on carrier for the first attempt and never failed. I owned all the other warbirds and flying prop planes is fun to me, except this Corsair. 
    how come a fast, strong plane named whistle of death is like this ? I tried dogfighting with P-47 and it was a struggling to keep up with that P-47.
    I don't really understand. I may refund this plane if it is possible.

    At the bottom of the first post, you'll see this file DCS Aircraft Avionics.zip.  That needs to be extracted to your main DCS folder.  It should overwrite the entry.lua for a few of the Flaming cliffs aircraft including the F-15C.  It will be replaced by a repair or an update and it would need to be extracted again.  With that entry.lua there, you do not have to start in an F15C.  If you still do, then the file isn't in the correct location.  Look at the folder structure of the zip and compare it to your DCS main game folder.

    Yes, I did this too. thank you for your helps. I'm enjoying the mod.
    Btw: Do you have any intention to mod the HUD in the future instead of using F-15C HUD ? 

  7. 15 hours ago, Nightstorm said:

    Any update or repair of DCS is going to remove the avionics stuff since those are modified files.  That will need to be reinstalled every time a repair or update is done.  See the first post for more information on this.

    I mean everytime I want to fly the Raptor, I need to jump into any F-15C cockpit first.

    While the new version does still "work" and so does the F22 mod, I've had many issues with it.  And it appears others have as well.  The now locked 2.9.15 thread is still there to read through.  The ONLY solution I've found is to roll back to 2.9.14.  You lose the Germany map, as it was released with .15.  I really hope the issues get resolved.

    the mod works again after I jumped into F-15C cockpit and back.

    Did you complete 1st step 1st (as mentioned in the 1st post)?

    1. Download DCS Aircraft Avionics file and extract into your DCS MAIN Game folder, not your DCS SAVED GAMES folder.  These files are required to use any third party mods that use the F-15C or other Flaming Cliffs avionics.  Without this, the F-22 will not load properly.
    Example:  .\DCS World OpenBeta or \DCS World

    Try logging into an FC3 or F15C aircraft and then into the F22. Alternatively, amend the F15C 'entry.lua' to add the "load_immediately = true" at the end; you'll need to amend this after every ED core update.  

    Thank you, I got it to work.

    I don't mean to sound harsh but it does not install straight away. The first page says so.

    1. To reiterate, you have to put the GD EFM 2.0 files to a temp location, not in the DCS Saved Games.
    2. Remove the the F-22A folder in the DCS Saved Games, <- May be it is just me, cause I cannot just "update" the mod by dropping the updated Enhancement right on the existing folder. I need a clean install some how.
    3. Unpack the Enhanced Mod zip file into the DCS  Saved Games.
    4. Then, lastly, copy the folders bin, fm and shapes to the F-22A folder under DCS Saved Games.

    Hope this helps.

    Do I still need the "AIM-120 D3 and C8" mod installed when these 2 sets of missiles with the "same" name -- one spells "AIM-120D-3" and the other says "AIM-120D3"? Thanks.

    First of all download mod form release page on github not from main page. File should have 1.3GB size.

    Second edit F15C entry lua and add "load_immediately = true" line. Details in Readme file in "Important Note" section on github.

     

    Thank you guys but I still haven't managed to make it work. Don't know why because the instruction is very simple.

    Can you confirm whether or not you have ever had TrackIR (or other head tracking), or have installed TrackIR software, or have one plugged into your machine?

    Do you still get these messages appearing? Can you also disable Device Hotplugging in the DCS controls settings, it’s the button at the bottom on the right hand side. Let me know if this is already disabled. 

    I don't have TrackIR, I'm using Quest 3 now.

    That TrackIR unplugged message popped a lot in the last few updates (all of the April updates I guess).
    I have Opentrack installed but not running at the same time.

    The Hot Plug button is as below attachment.

    I have updated to Windows 11. It has been running well for 3-4 sessions. 
    P/s: In Windows 11 I used Process Lasso to disable E-core and the game would be in black screen forever. Letting the game running with all cores is fine. (my CPU is i7 14700KF).

    VR wasn't being used in this session, but I did notice TrackIR. Do you have TrackIR (and were using it)?

    2025-04-27 08:36:40.536 INFO    INPUT (Main): created [TrackIR]

    Couple of other points:

    • You're running DCS as administrator, do you have another account you can use instead (for security reasons you shouldn't run stuff as administrator). I also ask this as users on Winwing MFDs experienced a similar issue when running as administrator, hence my question around TrackIR.
    • You're running DCS from the bin-mt directory. Run DCS from the bin directory, they're both multithreaded and bin-mt will be removed in the future.

    I'm using Quest 3. Recently I got ingame message about TrackIR unplugged a lot. I don't have another account.

    hello @anlq

    i dropped your log into the discord analyzer.

    Advice

    Please update to the most recent version of DCS World.
    Windows 10 will be EOL Oct 14th 2025. Upgrade to Windows 11.
    Upgrade your OS to Windows 11 to better support your CPU or disable cores 16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27 in Windows or Process Lasso
    Verify that this is configured correctly in Windows:
    Game Mode disabled
    Hardware accelerated GPU scheduling disabled

    Tuning Tips

    Disable civil traffic.
    Tuning tips are recommendations for better FPS based on your CPU, GPU and RAM.
    They might result in slightly decreased display quality.

    unfortunately (IMO) the newer gen intel cpus cause issues. i have an 11 gen cpu and have none of these issues. it is the sales pitch of intel to claim all these cores and it is a combo of P and E cores. E cores do not play with DCS very well.

    thank you for sending my log to ED.

    AFAIK, I upgraded the machine last week, and the problem has happened to my old PC (old i7 9700 old gen). So I don't think this is newer CPU problem.
    I may try upgrading to Windows 11 to see if this still remains. 

    Thank you again.
