Go back to the DCS E shop... it's listed under the box image.

How about a re-install of DCS?

It's been great viewing!

Can you adjust the monitor setting to move the screen up? I haven't seen this before.

port number is invalid

Love the Flanker!

I think there was a Lock On mod made to fix it.

No problem. Is your desktop set to 1680x1050 and is full screen checked in the DCS options?

This is a carry over from the Lock On engine with clouds present which affects some video cards... I have it too with 8800GTs.

Game freezes are usually due to the graphics card being over worked and over heated so make sure you have proper cooling set up or it isn't overclocked to high.

Try 1680x1050 1680x1024 seems like an odd resolution. Did you re-assign the collective? The default is usually not the proper axis. Select collective then clear then add then move your throttle to assign the axis.

Go back to the home page then log in and go to FILES/PRODUCTS and the serial number will be listed under the Black Shark box image.

That voice over was done by the campaign designer with triggers and wasn't translated to English. All in game training tutorials, wingman, and ATC comms are in English.

Seconded! :)

Remember guys... the Russian release wasn't intended to be purchased by those in non CIS countries. It's priced for the CIS market. The English version is priced for the western market and the download version has to be priced based on the store shelf price because the stores won't sell it if it's half the cost for someone to download it.

The Ka-50 is quite automated and has a lot of redundancy. If you have an engine or APU fire the extinguisher bottle will blow automatically. All you need to do is confirm the engine then shut off the fuel cutoff lever and finally close the engine fuel valve. If you want or need to you can manually blow the second bottle by pressing the button but then are left with no further extinguishing capability. A hydraulic failure will be seamless. You get an EKRAN message and the system takes care of the rest. All you have to do is use the emergency gear switch(red gaurded) to transfer the gear hydrauilcs to the operating system.

I have success with them by not locking the target up with auto-track. Just ground stabilize the Shkval and place the TD box just slightly in front of the target. You can also move the laser while the missile is enroute to fine tune it's path if needed.

They sure did! Su-27 Flanker V1.0 was my first PC sim. We had a very active international online community back then using IRC at the Flanker O' Club and Kali and Khan. HMASP The Flanker Ladder At one time "Wags" was just "Wags" schooling us in BVR in v1.5. We've both been involved with ED and the Flanker series since the mid to late 90's although he's a bigshot now. :) Here's some names from the past: Wags... that's Matt Stinger... that was me Papa Doc Headcase Adamski Palerider Taurion Lawndart Trak Dah Chaos Chesty Kevo Catseye Brzi Loophole Mazman Archer Ejecto Killerbee Quax Wicked Baco Legend... and many, many more!

Here's a shot of me taking care of that pinko back in the day :) We sure had fun back then with v1.0 and 1.5!!

It's insane! Getting a few Vikhrs off on a helo after finally locking it up and selecting the air to air modes appropriate for the attack... seeing a few prox detonations and then closing to within guns range and dancing on the pedals while dogfighting with the limited visibility(cockpit view only) is pretty damned hair raising. Then getting a good deflection burst off to see the pieces break off your opponent and finally catch fire is very thrilling! MUCH more intense than jets! You can also sneak up on an opponent then lock him up at the last second and kill him easily with an auto-tracking guns shot. The RAF server had a capture the flag scenario up today and it was a great head to head team mission.

Really quick? 1. Fuel levers - off 2. rotor brake - on. 3. Batteries - off.

The warning is there because during testing we found this campaign, which is very heavy, played much better on XP machines and Vista bogged down. Now, with this "affinity" work around Vista users are doing the campaign may be playable.

They look great!

Mission builders can include success triggers that can add sounds and or text messages when a task or mission is accomplished. It'll just take time for users to see the full potential of the mission editor.

Obviously the Lock On A-10A training description text was used when that part of the manual was made before the Black Shark text was created. :)
