Tiramisu

Dont get me wrong. I am glad about this. I am just hoping they are doing well. :)

What the hell? This module is not even one year old and got that discount already? I hope ED is not doing this because of any financial problems. Weird thing is that the discount is only available on Steam currently.

Thanks! Is it really necessary to replace the files in my saved games folder, if I use OVGME? I would have to replace 1526 files in my saved games folder, which makes it hard to create backups.

How did you even manage to kill your engine like this?

Oh, ja!

Es wäre toll, wenn man die Pilotenarme mit der Maus bewegen könnte. Nicht nur damit man dann die Knöpfe sieht, sondern auch damit man anderen Leuten im MP zuwinken kann. :D Gibt es dafür schon einen Wunschthread?

Ja, finde ich auch. Andere Modelle wie Gebäude oder KI-Flugzeuge wären für mich wichtiger gewesen. Aber wenn sich ED schon so viel Mühe macht, werde ich in Zukunft wohl öfters Shift+P drücken. :) Edit: Es kann aber auch sein, dass ED das wegen dem Supercarrier macht.

Naja, bei der Hawk war das eigentliche Problem, dass ED keinen Zugang zum Quellcode hat, wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe. D.h. die können gar keine Updates mehr bei der Hawk vornehmen, selbst wenn sie es wollten. Seit diesem Vorfall ist jeder 3rd party dev deswegen verpflichtet, seinen Code an ED weiterzuleiten.

It is a nice little option for people who often minimize their DCS-window without wanting the sound to stop. So when I go back to my desktop to read Chuck's guide, then I can still listen to the lovely sound of my jet engines. :thumbup:

I am not quite sure, but I believe the pilot's view in the mirage is still a bit too high. According to your petite avatar, that is to be expected. :renske:

Hopefully this fixes the bug that the view point is too high. Even after lowering my seat I was not able to read the upper line on my radar properly.

Good luck finding other developers, who update their stable versions more frequently than ED. I am used to see big updates only every 6 or 12 months from other game/sim devs, so ED and their 3rd party devs are actually making a good job compared to the others.

Is this mod still working?

Me after buying a new aircraft: do dogfights with it for hours while neglecting all other aspects of that aircraft. Even in the Viggen. :D

That is a very interesting read, but for the most part the section about the flight model is mostly describing extreme situations and I doubt that normal reallife pilots can give much feedback about that, because they usually do not fly dangerous maneuvers. I mean we would probably have to ask testpilots or engineers about the flight model in extreme situations. So I would not 100% agree with the following conclusion from the document: However, I have to agree with the part in the document, that mentions the weird behavior, when you change the position of your collective and the Gazelle banks in an unnatural way. The transition from one bank angle to another feels very clipped and very sudden in that situation, unless there is some fly-by-wire-mechanics going on that I am not aware of. Still I believe the roll behavior needs some fixes in general. And the fall behavior might also needs some fixes like the document mentions. Other than that the flight model feels very solid for an Advanced Flight Model (AFM) imo. It is behaving pretty much the way I would expect from a light helicopter. Btw. its relatively small mass might be the reason, why there is almost no VRS for the Gazelle. I am not quite sure about that.

Oh, thank you! :thumbup:

I have the latest version DCS 2.5.6.43931 from Open Beta and I thought the LOD-bug has been already fixed by ED.

I am not sure, if this has been already reported, but as you can see here the dead manpad is not visible any more on max zoom-out-level. Probably it would also happen to alive units, but I have not tried that out yet: Of course the unit becomes smaller when I zoom out, but he should still be visible, if this bug did not occure.

I would advice you to download missions from the community or create a simple one yourself, because the instant missions I tried for the Gazelle were not really "instant". Instead it takes a long time of flight until you reach your target, which is not very helpful for beginners imo.

Thanks! I hope Polychops will add this line themself, since it does not take much effort.

Maybe ED needs to develop the snipers first. We are missing snipers in general, because there are only normal infantery units.

What exactly is missing for the flight model? I have noticed a few situations, when it feeled a bit unrealistic, but it is not as bad as some people mentioned.

Any news on this topic?

Oh, I forgot to mention that I have bought it as a Steam-bundle. So I assumed that it is also possible in the E-shop. Maybe you simply have to add the bundle to your chart and get only charged for the helos you do not own yet.

It should be possible. I already owned the Ka-50 and the Huey, so I could get the Mi-8 and the Gazelle for just 33€ in the bundle. That is 65% discount for all missing helos. :thumbup:
