  1. Hi, When choosing '2 vs 1 Air Combat Maneuvering' from Instant Action (Caucasus) it appears that the previous mission ('1 vs 1 High Aspect Basic Fighter Maneuvers') is opened instead. Cheers!!!
  2. Hi, When the Spitfire crashes the visible charred model is that of the Bf 109, at least for the AI Spitfire. Cheers!!!
  3. Hi, I use MSAA 2x with Index. I found the shimmering with MSAA off to be too much to bear, even at the cost of some fps. MSAA blurs edges so they don't shimmer which is great for the attenuation of shimmering or the stairs effect. This makes far, not linear objects become blurred and somewhat faded which is a negative side effect. Anyway I can spot aircraft quite far, even for real life standards. The problem is that one must put the eyes exactly on the right piece of sky to achieve this, which makes it an art form. But in reality it is the same. I'm coming from Rift CV1 and the visual pickup has evolved to a point comparable to real life, when talking about distances only. The crispiness of the tallies is still way too far behind from reality and the VID distances as well as a consequence. But, from a CV1 comparison perspective the visual arena is now manageable. Maybe with 8K for each eye... Tech will get there for sure!!! For the ground targets it is easier in DCS than real life by miles. This is because the terrain is simpler, with less clutter than real life and any object becomes more easily observable. Having said this I think that spotting is well modeled in DCS. I know that some people complain about it but only bigger (size) monitors and more resolution in both monitors and VR will solve this... or labels, which I never use anyway. ED has done a good job in this department. Cheers!!!
  4. Solved - Mission 20 - Unarmed Helo Did it again and killed the two Halos in less than 3 min. The shooting to the rotor/engines makes a big difference but the not recording of the second kill in previous attempts still puzzles me. Art-J thank you for your reply.
  5. Mission 20 - Unarmed Helo The mission narrator never says the second helo to have been shot down. He acknowledges the first being killed but never the second. Because of this I can't proceed to the next mission. Log, track and Tacview files attached. (edit: track file too big, another Tacview file instead) Several notes on different tries: - The narrator says the first helo is down although it either crash-lands on the ground or on the water and keeps afloat and fairly intact (the debriefing logs a crash): - The second helo crashes and disappears and the kill is never credited; - The Mi-26 damage model is like a MBT, needing insane amounts of ammo to kill it (although on one occasion 63 hits were enough); - If the Mi-26 crash lands it becomes "indestructible" (on one occasion I rearmed with rockets and only then the helo tail came off but the general condition was "OK-ish" and it never exploded).

  6. Hi all, The M-2000 Logbook is not accounting for night flight time. I don't know if it is a M-2000 or a DCS issue but other aircraft are not affected (at least two, others haven't tested). Cheers!
