    Turbulence

    Yes I had bombs. Why would it only be at low level?

    Turbulence

    I was having a bit of a play on multiplayer today and noticed something I have never seen before in DCS. I was flying low level in a Mirage at high speed and it was bouncing around like crazy. Once at a higher altitude it smoothed out. Is this turbulence and is it new? I know the setting has always been there but I've never experienced it yet.
  3. Maybe a long way down the line but I'd love a UK variant with UK pilot uniforms. Also would it be possible to add animated passengers in the back.
  4. I'm using a warthog with saitek combat rudder pedals. I've put a 15% curvature on the stick and pedals and it's so much easier to fly now. I was having a hard time before but it's relatively easy to fly now.
  5. Thanks. I haven't been over to that seat yet.
  6. Is there any way to put the co pilot's visor down? His eyes are a little bit freaky looking.
  7. It is a handful to fly. I haven't managed a safe landing yet. I doesn't help that the FPS in Nevada drop every few seconds.
  8. The current model enlargement at the moment is not great in my opinion. The aircraft should be bigger and the ground units a lot smaller. You can spot a bus from miles and miles away but sometimes it's hard to see a plane you have merged with.
  9. Why does it seem that every multiplayer mission has all aircraft on both sides. It doesn't seem right that F15's shoot down A10's and Su's fighting against Su's. I expect it's a balance thing but it just seems so unrealistic to me.
  10. Will the crew have a voice? eg will the commander be able to call out missile warnings, threats to the pilot etc? Will the Gazelle be flyable as a UK aircraft and will there be a UK skin?
  11. Would it be possible to use 2 position toggle switches much like the 3 position ones that has already been implemented? What I would like to do is map the master arm and fbw g limit switch to 2 position toggle switches on my warthog.
  12. Why when you damage an AI aircraft why does it slow right down and extend its speed bakes? Surely it would be better for it to get to the nearest friendly airfield asap. Hopefully this will be fixed one day.

    4 Magic's

    What is the idea behind the close combat mode? The magics have their own ir seeker so why do you need radar too?

    4 Magic's

    Yes, I'm using the Matra missiles. The problem I have is if on a head on fight with the 530's I always lose due to the enemy being able to fire first at a further range. I've taken to dodging the inbound radar guided missiles then getting into a dogfight at close range. Hence my need for 4 Magic's.

    4 Magic's

    Thought it probably was, shame.
  16. I've found the 530 will also track the small square on the hud and not the actual aircraft that is locked. I assumed the small square is the direction the locked aircraft is heading.

    4 Magic's

    I've always been more of a ground attack type and mainly flew the A10c and the Heli's. Since getting this module I thought I would try my hand at air to air and realise I suck at it! I tried the missile combat instant action mission and once into visual range I can just about shoot one enemy down before I am killed. I tried loading up 4 Magic's for close in fighting but I can only load 2. Is this realistic? It seems a bit limiting having only 2 Magic's as the 530's seem a bit of a waste of a hardpoint.
  18. Nice video, nice music too. What's up with your terrain though? Is that a low setting?
  19. I was quite reluctant to buy because I didn't really have much interest in french aircraft. I bought it in the last sale and I'm very glad I did. As said it's not finished yet but it is still very usable and fun to learn and fly. If Baltic Dragons campaign is half as good as his A10 one then the module is worth getting just for that. Definitely my favourite plane at the minute.
  20. Is this planned to be part of the module or a separate campaign to purchase?
  21. I've had the money sitting for ages waiting for this module. I can only keep it from the missus for so long. Come on guys get this released ASAP before she finds out.
  22. I just wish I could use the old map again in 2.0. As good as nevada is its not a war zone.
  23. Why not try and bridge the gap by making transport aircraft like C130's, CH47's or an IL76.
  24. I've wanted a Tornado since DI's Tornado. I spent days playing that sim.
  25. I'd love the F86.
