  1. Was flying home on the cold war server. I had no tanks and 2xr60m and low fuel at about 5000m. I'd pushed myself past m1 with AB and then backed off just below AB activation on the throttle. I stayed above m1 with stable speed. I love the updated flight model but I'm not sure this should be possible. :huh: screenshots included ( track not included because "lack of security token" )
  2. Does the jamming pod work/do anything now ? I'm sure it will be next to useless against modern FC3 craft but I think it was on the list of things to do.
  3. You can use the click method if you have FFB stick. If not the simulated loss of force on the stick from the trim reset causes the ingame stick to jump a bit. You can anticipate this with the long hold trim method. With the frequent click method, errors build up due to the jump and you will find it very hard to trim to a specific attitude. That my experience anyway ( ka-50 pilot since BS1 first release ) If you a masochist then use the forum search tool for BS trimming. A lot of "discussion" in there.
  4. Yea, I'm having the same problem, game crashes at just under 3gb ram usage for me. I have 8gb total. It seems to happen much faster on higher populated servers. Its making MP in 1.5 for me pretty much undoable.
  5. I'm having trouble with this as we, not sure if there is a correlation but its worse on MP servers with many players. A lot of the time I can't even get off the ground before a crash. I have 8gb ram and am running on a mix of med and high settings.
  6. Thanks, I will try that. Of course me email server is down at the moment ( sods law ) so I can't look up my licence key emailed to me from Leatherneck after the Indigo campaign. Maybe Once I have done that I will have the simple option to install. Little rant: Isn't it frustrating that no matter how carefully you try and word a problem on a forum, people always seem to misunderstand the problem or just insinuate that your doing something stupid. EDIT: Email worked, bound the serial key to my account and installed. Will now use the Mig21 hotfix and give it a go. Thanks for your help
  7. Wo wo wo! guys don't run off with this steam thing! never mentioned it was a steam version. Of course I have tried the module manager and while all other modules give an option to install, Mig21 only allows me to buy which takes me to the ED store. what do you mean by this ? I hardly use the Run command so if your alluding to a mistake then please be plane about it. I got the Mig 21 key from the funding campaign if that is relevant.
  8. Hi all, sorry if this has already been addressed but I can't seem to install the Mig module into 1.5. I am using the "MIG-21BIS_1.2.16.43180.9-9.exe" I have been told that I can use the run command "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin>dcs_updater.exe install MIG-21BIS" But either I am getting the syntax wrong or possibly I need to put the MIG-21.BIS exe somewhere specific. Windows says It can run the command because it can't find the file. I am locating the Updater.exe correctly so that is not the problem. Thanks
  9. Hay all I know this has been discussed in a few different threads but I'd like try and compile a list of things to avoid if you don't want your engine to stall/flameout. This is so I have a quick reference to look at while flying and eventually I will memorise them all. I will edit the list as new suggestions come in. So far I have
  10. Thanks for you response and advice, I will try and put it into practice... <gulp> Edit : Tried the down low tactic with my mate in coop tonight. Blind in a knife factory ? yup! Twice both me and my mate caught sight of a hostile on our tail only to see him splashed by SAMs. No kills for us, terrible K/D ratio but we made it back alive and landed. HEAPS of fun. Thanks again.
  11. Love the premise, pleased that its not more A2G missions for this interceptor. Question : I've tried this mission MP and SP and with the first mission that is intercept many turkish contacts ( 14-20 odd ). First of all the odds seem fairly steep against me ( I'm not a god at this game ). Is it not as one sided as it seems ? am I missing something ? Maybe I should wait until they are within the air defence range of the city to help me out ? Secondly, only sometimes to friendly Mig 21's also spawn to help the fight but sometimes its only me, 1 Mig vs over 10 enemy contacts. Is this a random element by design or some bug ? Not bashing on this camp at all, I've found it hard to find missions for the Mig MP and SP that fit its intended role. Thanks for your hard work on this Camp.
  12. Got the best KA-50 training around from this guy when in the 104th. Good to see you in the skies again Tyger!
  13. Hi all Having a bug with the map/abris fonts. In the map screen, editor and abris screens the map labels are stretched and flickering all over the place. Any ideas ? Am using an ATI card so I imagine its some setting in there or possibly true type in windows ?
  14. Hi man, will look into this again but atm I have no problems ( well apart from all the text in the map and Ka-50 abris being warped and glitchy )
  15. Great Idea, makes loading weapons less confusing.
  16. "Jump" into the air on stored up energy. Like when you have a heavy load and one engine out in the Ka-50, reducing the blade pitch angle to gain rotor RPM then quickly increasing rotor pitch to hop into the air ( though without a pusher rotor its short lived ). Seems like quite a hairy way to get going though.
  17. What does a developer need to accomplish to meet the standards of a DCS product ? What kind of aircraft would ED consider too classified to be modeled to a DCS standard ?
  18. Sorted it. With a bit of going back and forth I got SofTH reinstalled then used easy monitor config to export the panels to the second screen in full screen. I also disabled the in-cockpit Shkval and ABRIS as these are now on my second monitor for a small FPS boost I hope.
  19. Peters this looks great, It would save me going to f10 to check local frequencies. Would it function like the current UH-1 knee board with way points of maps etc.. ? Sorry, I'm a little late to this discussion.
  20. This is a fantastic tool. I've gone from manually editing my lua files to using softh and now this is even better! My DCSW though crashes when trying to load a mission when running in full screen. I think I get some FSP boost when not in windowed mode. Is there a way of runing multi monitor and full screen ?
  21. Yesterday while trying out a missing that dynamically spawns troops for deployment or pickup from UH-1 I managed several landings in a hostile zone with out crashing or damage! Very pleased. I think part of the trick for landing is to pick your spot early and do a shallow controlled descent to it with minimal collective change, just keep a smooth rate of decent right up until you hit the extra lift from the ground.
  22. Thanks Biggus Sorry If I started to lose my cool, you know what its like on forums.. your not sure if your making yourself clear or if there is some other barrier to understanding. Anyway I am still using the Mouse and TIR disable solution as I mentioned in OP which is ok, and maybe after all is better than the hat swtich. I would have liked to try it with the hat but I could never get it to work even once TIR was disabled and the buttons are bound to my X-52 hat. We will just have to wait for end of beta I guess. As a side note I wonder how real UH-1 pilots aim in the number 1 seat without that unreal site that appears in the middle of the glass for the main pilot. This has gone on long enough without anyone demonstrating that they managed to bind the felxi site controls to a hat at all. I assume while this feature is shown in the controls list it is either non functional or not working alongside Track IR. ] Thanks for everyone's help.
  23. I DON'T WANT TO AIM WITH THE MOUSE!!! I got the mouse working as I said in the OP I want to try and use a hat switch. Please someone read at least the OP and some of the posts before replying... P.S. Sorry Biggus but I'm trying to get an answer out of "The Internet" is sometimes like herding cats
  24. Thanks Suchacz Have you tried it and does it work ? There are fields to bind the fexi site to buttons but I could not get that to work. Do you have Track IR ? Have you managed to get flexi site controlled by button binds with or without Track IR ?
  25. Am I going mad? I said in the OP that I had got it working with the mouse but this was not satisfactory to me. Lets just forget about THE MOUSE THE BADLY MADE TIR And Concentrate on BINDING the FLEXI SIGHT to a HAT SWTICH ? If its not possible I will shut up and go away, I haven't managed it and I wonder if anyone has. Does it really take 4 pages to get a reply on this ? Please, No one suggest that I disable track IR and use the mouse. I tried this before I made my OP and mentioned it in OP so I really don't understand why this is being suggested as a solution. ( Deep Breath, Rant Over )
