  1. "Not Enough disk space in the download folder. Need 181262 Mbytes when only 175313 are available" What am I missing? My C drive where SavedGames are has 33.9 GB free D Drive where DCS is installed has 171 GB gb Why am I getting this message?
  2. Been there done that . 3X
  3. AHHH.... THe curse is back! I don;t understand WTF is going on with 1.51. I installed 1.51. But then OH-6A could not be armed, and could not have its payload cha nged except for fuel. Then I installed 1.51 patch, overwrote the scripts. That fixed the problem , and i could fly armed, functional OH-6A. Now, for some reason the problem is back. I cannot arm OH6A, and cannot set loadout except for fuel. I reinstalled 1.51, reinstalled 1.51 patch. Problem has not gone away. it retuened and this time it is staying. Out of ideas!
  4. Verify that "Easy Flight" is off. Happenes to me everytime I am above 120. Also depends on wind direction and speed relative to aircraft when 120 knots is exceeded.
  5. Fixed THX! Does Dir Gyro work? IS there a three minute alignment? For me only mag compass works.
  6. This is NORMAL behavior above 120 knots, depending on weather, QNH, and gross weight. The rotor experiences a hard retreating blade stall, that is very difficult to recover from. Best to do is collective down, cyclic back (slightly), pedal opposite YAW, PRAY! Stay away from 120 on speedo indicator! It happens fast, happens suddenly, happens hard. With conventional layout helicopters, the smaller the helicopter, the smaller the rotor disk, the lower the VNE. For DCS: OH-6A it is 120. 122 is near death. 125 is death. Fastest helicopter os DCS are huge CH-47 and MI-26. KA-50 is also fast with VNE of 155 knots or about that. Yes. New scripts replaced old ones.
  7. Please help on 1.51. Installed 1.51. Lost ability to arm helicopter. Lost ability to add any stores to helicopter except for fuel. Enabled flare dispenser, but do not get Flare Dispenser on/OFF and Dispense button. Any loadout created in Mission Editor or preflight Mission Planner is ignored. Doors remain oj helicotper despite being X'ed . Only fuel and grenades are honored. What happened?
  8. I can't tell if problem is F-5E or South Atlantic map. But F-5E and Mt. Pleasant do not like each other. Missions crash 5 to 10 minutes into flight. South Atlantic really is fine with other aircraft, including non-com mods.
  9. I don't understand Mt. Pleasant ATC logic, of directing departure and recovery runway of 10 in obvious IFR/ILS weather. Overcast full, 400 meter celing. Regardless of wind, ATC has to use runway 28 which is ILS equiped as active runway. Yet Mt. Pleasant prefers runway 10 which is non-ILS VFR runway.
  10. My error. THose were Singapore F-5S(or ES) with Israeli mods for PYthon carry. Google Earth sat data of Puento Arenas airport/airbase caught three Chilean AF F-5s on runway. I figure that Chilean F-5 had some equivalency to Brazilian F-5Ms. After more then 10 years of DCS: F-5E (I got it in 2014) its now boring. I use F-5E for fixed recurrent stick&rudder practice, as its fast and easy to start and fly.
  11. Is there aything new'er that can be added to F-5E to bring it into early 1990's Can ED update F-5E realistically to bring it into at least late 1980's early 1990's? AIM-9M and AIM-9 on wing pylons allowing carriage up to four. Self protection jammer and expanded chaff/flare ILS radar upgrade Some kind of INS nav system. Pre revolution Shah Of Iran Air Force F-5E were photogrpahed with AGM-65 and AIM-7(M/F??) Anything? Buhler? Anything Right now DCS: F-5E is wearing 1960's GoGo boots and early 1970's bell bottoms, and navigates by dead reckoning in VFR only.
  12. I did. But want to point out that DLSS kind of sucks in DCS, and advice on DLSS setting presented here are kind of worthless. Like that DLSS change from E to F or vice versa using a downloadable util (which fails Norton chack). Does nothing! E or F ot back to E. DCS with DLSS looks the same.There is no noticeable improvement in FPS, only degradation in graphics clarity. So I go through all these trouble, and result is 'nothing'.
  13. I doubt there is much need to check weight when A/C has no stores, no tanks, no gunpo, and less then 1000 (500 per tank) or less fuel. In this config, with emergency combat power and water ON, our Harrier cannot transition to hover and land vertically at Nellis or any field with higher elevation, and struggles to stay in air at ship speeds at sea level on standard day. So there is a power shortage.
  14. What is meant by 'ghosting'. I don't see ghosting with DLSS. I get weird noise and instruments are hard to read. At normal view zoom in any given cockpit, it is difficult to make out QNH/QFE seeting on altimeter or mechanical fuel weight. The numbers are noisy (animated noise) and blurry. So is the terrain, and it is irritating to look at.Especcially in slow speed helicopter flight, or hovering. Perhaps DLSS is good for fast motion 1st or 3rd person shooters or running games, but for DCS , DLSS kind of well..... It sucks.
  15. DCS DLSS+DLAA has no effect on my 3070Ti except introduce noice and make instruments hard to read At rez set to 2560X1440. DLSS is worhtless! End of rant
  16. Lately I am Having trouble with max power VTOL landings. Not enough power. WIth fuel at 1800 (900 per tank), 2 X AIM -9M, empty gunpod, and LHA-1 having 15 knots wind over deck, I keep sinking into water. Max power, emergency combat power ON, water injection set to land, nozzles at 82-85, I struggle at sea level vertical landing on 2992 standard day. In this state AV-8B should have more then enough power. Yet my throttle is firewalled, water on Landing, but aircraft sinks, it won't hover. Yet I am able to T/O vertically in similar state from LHA-1. Its on return landing that transitioning to hover that A/C struggles to stay in air.

  18. Wow! 1.4 is an excellent UG! Helo is so much less twitchy and feels more realistic in flight. Now regarding main rotor disk droop and coning. Not really seeing that, and its in all helicopters except few 21'st century experimental helicopters/. Can NS430 (non floating stand alone) be integrated into non-commercial mods. Kneeboard map is good enough. Still with RWR, flare dispencer, and NVG, which are all in the mod, it is now in mid 1980's, early 1990's battlefield compatible. Strictly day & night IFR bird only. Flight into IMC is trictly prohibited. Aviation is a self-cleaning oven. Keep in mind. MD-500 is not OH-6A. MD-500 has stronger engine and 5 bladed main rotor. Some have 4 bladed torque rotor. So MD-500 flight characteristics are not same as OH-6A. Certainly not DCS: OH-6A.
  19. Stick full back on landing roll , AFTER weight on all wheels, does help with landing roll veering off runway. partially. It still pulls heavily, and even full differential brake on opposite direction of veer, does not fully arrest veer. Basically I don't count on picture perfect centerline all the way to 40 knots.At 40 knots NWS has authority. You just have to survive the 80-40 knot speed range on the runway. RAZBAM has to fix it. Regarless of RAZBAM's argument with ED.
  20. M2KC NWS turns off at above 40 knots ground speed. Upon landing, it won't engage untill ground speed falls below 40 knots ground speed. Between 100 and 45 knots M2KC has a bug where rudder aythority with weight on wheels is near zero. So you will steer with differential braking. Even then, expect to run off the runway with slightest crosswind. Popping chute won't help. It is a bug that RAZBAM has so far failed to fix.
  21. WInter is part of it, but cost and complexity is primary reason. There have been infrequent incidents of Russian aircraft, especcially SU-34 and SU-24, running out of dry summer runway due to brake chute failiure. Wheel brakes are not enough to stop landed Russian tactical aircraft. They have to use chutes, then rely on brakes after chute release.This allows wheel brakes to be lighter and simpler. Russians figure that chance of chute fail is far lower then brake fade or brake fail. In this they are right. American F-15s and F-16s have run off the runway , with zero altitude, low speed, ejection, due to brake fail. Always risky. Not all runways have functional emergency trap wires. American major air bases have runways to handle largest B-52 and C-5M landing at max gross weight. So they are very long. Long enough that tactical aircraft can stop even with marginal brakes. But that is not case for all runways , where USAF F-15s and F-16s operate fromNorwegian F-16's have tail brake chutes for winter snow runway use. Finns use hook to stop on road runways and winter snow covered runways.
  22. Found out that there is no TPM 2,0 for my particular wkstation model. latest BIOS update updates to 1.2 Pro ver of TPM. HP has ended suppourt for my HPZ 420. Oh well. It was bought refurbed on the cheap.
  23. My HP motherboard has HP TPM 1.0. 2.0 is a special order rather costly thingajig. HPZ workstations are my favorite rigs. Extremly rugged, and reliable. But its like owning an Audi or Porsche. Many HP specific upgrades are costly. Primary task of my rig is to run Houdini, Rhino3D, Maya, NUKE,and various CPU&GPU render engines. DCS is just a diversionary hobby.
  24. Mods come and go. Both A/C , vehucle, and statics. If a mission is loaded with missing mods, then mission does not load. When a mssing mod is encountered, DCS shouls notify the user and temporaily place a holder box, like a box, in its place. Spending hours creating and refining mission, should not be invalidated months later, becouse some mod became unusable legacy or got removed. Thank you.
