How can I update to 20146 please?

Same story here. My DCS Open Beta doesn't update, it's version .20036 - ran the updater but nothing.

I am in Open Beta. But my version number is 20036. When can I expect the required update?

Hi, Bought the module 10 minutes ago but it does not show up in the manager. Usually I instantly see the red mark showing that I can install a new module but nothing this time. Also, at the bottom of the main menu, the YAK-52 shows up as a module I can still BUY. anyone knows what can be the issue? It does, however, show up in MY ORDERS...

Awesomel! We need this, otherwise how are we supposed to carry our luggage from land to carrier in the sim! This pod is a must! :-) On a serious note, such a pod would be indeed cool in the sim!

And another one, with track attached. Winds still calm, and carrier speed reduced to only 20 Knots this time - absolutely no reason to be sliding. No wing vapour on this occasion though. slidingondeck2.miz.trk

Here is a track, sliding like crazy on the Stennis after landing and wing vapour on the deck as well. Carrier speed was only 25 or 26 Knots. slidingondeck.miz.trk

Sounds great!

Same story here. Although it was stated to be fixed earlier, this bug is still very much alive and kicking, sliding on the deck like crazy, more than ever. Terrible taxi characteristic onboard the Stennis. Also, a weird wing vapour effect is seen while parked on the deck, as far as I can recall it was also supposed to be fixed already.

U r a star, all works! Thank you!

That must be it! How to use COMM 1 and/or COMM 2? Good catch, and thank you!

I know it's been covered a million times but for the life of me, I can't get it to work. Could someone, who has enough patience, please kindly step by step, as if talking to a five year old, describe how to contact Stennis (in order to get the approach lights to work), including setting up the Mission Editor? This is what I did - without succeeding - so far: - In the ME, I left the default COM freq for the carrier at 127.500 (modulation AM) - Once in the jet, fully ready for takeoff from the boat, I select COM 1, go to M (Manual) and enter 127.500 and then when I hit my communications menu button, it (still) works, offering me to either "Abort the takeoff" or "Go to the parent menu" or "Exit|. - After takeoff, the above menu disappears and when I hit my communication menu button - in order to report inbound - nothing happens. I mean absolutely nothing. What am I doing wrong?

Agreed! We need the Tornado!

I already opened a ticket yesterday regarding the bomb / pylon issue, and got this "very professional reply" to it: From: Konstantin Kharin Hello. Please discuss this here https://forums.eagle.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=512 this is not a competence of technical support. Best regards and many happy landings !

For me a low visibility ILS approach is always exciting.

I'm quite new to DCS, don't know how things work here - how long does it usually take to fix bugs like this?

I think this issue has the exact same roots as the one I reported a few hours ago regarding the MK82 bombs and the pylons.

Exactly.

I am wondering if the MK82 is correctly positioned to the center pylon. It looks really weird to me, because when the bomb is attached, it looks like the pylon's lower edge has an arc, kind of taking the shape of the bomb. But when the bomb is dropped, the pylon's lower edge is straight. Can't seem to get it.

You are right but it has nothing to do with the lack of ILS. Sure one can "break the rules" and carry out a non precision approach when a precision approach is required and sure it is a lot of fun and yes, landing on a carrier is cool but I was talking about the lack of ILS. I want to carry out precision approaches onto conventional runways, not boats. At least, not always. And it's a pity ED won't implement optional ILS capability.

Not gonna happen - and I'm quite disappointed. Wags replied in a Facebook discussion that neither conventional ILS is gonna be added, nor PAR. Which is a pity - because operators such as Finnish, Swiss, Spanish, Kuwaiti etc. Air Forces, just to name a few, don't base their Hornets on carriers but on normal airports and it would be very essential to have proper precision approach capability. This news basically destroyed my further interest in the Hornet - coming from civilian flight simulation - with a background of about 20 years or so - I truly love challenging night time and/or zero visibility approaches, and I thought it's not even a matter of question that the Hornet is gonna have ILS. I was wrong. Wags recommended to use TACAN or waypoints but that's a nonsense. Those are not precision approaches.

+1 on this

I would also like to know why this happens. I am sure it serves a purpose but very much interested in what is the idea behind it.

It would be awesome, I hope it will at some point be implemented. Wouldn't mind paying for it either, along with a Huey mod with no doors and with bubble windows. :-)

How to install the mods in Open Beta please?
