@xanstin, make sure other players LST or LSS code does match with your designator code, and they are searching the right spot.

Clear Error Messages for DCS Version Mismatch
-Cipher- replied to TheXerxes's topic in DCS Core Wish List
I agree. I remember spending almost half an hour to try fix a friend's network issue while all he had to do was updating his game. I think a message "Client version mismatch" or something like that would do it- 1 reply

DCS 2.9.2.49940 Open Beta- F-15E | DCS not responding
-Cipher- replied to -Cipher-'s topic in Bugs and Problems
I didn't even have DICE installed at the first place, the time I managed to load in successfully I had my mods removed, seems like something is causing it to suck all the RAM to a point of no return. let me know if VRAM thing helped -
The short answer is most likely yes but not anytime soon

as someone who studied and listened to various Iranian fighter pilot interviews I can tell that there is a misconception about level of skill of Iraqi Air Force. Iraqis were very skilled and experienced pilots they had powerful radar networks including good GCI allowing them to fly deep within Iran. they had plenty of good combat experience against Israel even more combat experience than Iranian pilots, based on interviews with former Iranian SIGNIT/ELINT officers of Iran, their GCIs somehow could get intel on presence of an F-14s in some instance which led to dozens of mission abort for Iraqi side. it was very very common that lots of Iraq planes jettisoned their bombs as soon as locked by an F-14 (commonly mentioned, mentioned by Shahram Rostami as well) they performed cooperative maneuvers to evade and destroy a considerable number of Iranian radar installations, which led to Iranian air defense units work together with the air force, The Operation Fath Ol Mobin proved cooperation of air defense and air offense can be game changer sometimes. anyway back to the topic , Iraqis also had their own techniques of evading the F-14 and AWG-9 (as described by one of our former pilots whose name I forgot) i.e performing ZigZag which we call Cranking to the left and right but interesting part is, these maneuvers did not help them as they got close as below 20 nautical miles, missiles fired within that range had a really good PK and I don't remember reading somewhere they miss within that window, except Colonel Mazandarani's Phoenix was missed because he fired the phoenix at a fast and cold target despite it was within 15nm range and he almost got detained for that. interesting part is they have done lots of these tactics using the old SPO-10 RWRs , they heavily relied on their GCI as EWRs however. Iraqis also used ECM a lot, the most powerful Jammers used by Iraqi airforce were the ones used on their Mirage-F-1s, these jammers managed to disable many of our HAWK systems but due to the fact that the ground based radar installations were exposed to hot and humid weather, based on interviews and mentions in Tom Cooper's book ; the Iraqis used very advanced ECMs against AWG-9 but the it could easily counter the jam and do it's job without any issue. I don't really like the way some people want to represent the phoenix as a slow fat brick only able to crash into straight flying big bombers. Phoenix is a very capable missile, and it is proven to be a very good and reliable weapon against agile fighters even in DCS with current state. regarding missile kinematic performance I have almost 0 data to verify how accurate it is performing vs real life but I believe the PK of DCS Phoenix will significantly improve once we get a much realistic or advanced missile API. personally I manage to fire the phoenixes against AI above 30k feet and Mach 0.9 and I always get +90% PK, I also have a good PK with it down on the deck , if fired within NEZ I always score a kill (~7nm). If you guys are interested in hearing first hand memories of our Iranian Tomcat pilots I highly suggest you to follow this youtube channel , it is in Persian but using a powerful AI service such as Gboard you can translate and use the details provided in this channel : Alireza Hamzei is a retired F-14 test and instructor pilot he has a youtube channel and he used to interview veteran pilots of Iran-Iraq War : https://www.youtube.com/@AlirezaHamzei/videos the content or the details shared by our veterans are valid they are not propaganda bold claims because Iranian national airforce was always opposed by Islamic leadership, the leaders always treated as our airforce pilots with poor trust and always disregarded their credits, they gave all the credits to the IRGC and corrupt IRGC officers who were poorly trained with awful results in war, they always insulted and discredited by IRGC and religious figures so it was their own benefit to share the public non but honest reports to gain the true reputation they deserve. I'm so sorry for the long message but I hope it helps the community. Sincerely

I would definitely love to have the F-13 as a separate module, it had much better maneuverability than the Bis and very good visibility with its bubble canopy design, the design so good that even China continued using it for their F-7 jets

not planned Switch to LuaJIT to improve performance
-Cipher- replied to TheXerxes's topic in DCS Core Wish List
I just checked the benchmark and that was a significant boost, I am not a skilled coder nor a developer but based on my observation on this if DCS codes could be upgraded without major compatibility problems I believe it could take it to the next level so yeah a +1 from me. -
Mystery debunked ! Thanks

Hi everyone I was going to test something until I noticed the Hornet has a ghost weapon weight of 130 lbs with following conditions : - no weapon - all pylons removed - 0% gun ammo -0 chaff and 0 flares I noticed it in the mission editor so no track files are needed for verification. - It is good to mention that the M61 weight is not considered as "weapon weight" because internally it is part of an aircraft hence its weight is around 202 lbs not even close to 130 lbs , - [Correct as it is ] I checked the Viper and it had 0 Weapon weight with a clean zero ammo configuration. conclusions : this could be either an error in the mission editor, an error or bug to deduct pylon weights or really an extra dead weight on the aircraft. Sincerely - Cipher

was testing S-8 rockets with mi-8 and mi-24 got interesting results, wanted to share with you as well. fire rockets 10km to target before reaching 10km pull nose up and fire a straight stream of rockets so you can see a straight smoke trail deploy flares and escape -use doppler navigation system on mi-8 to get range it works really accurate works great for mi-24p , m-8 and ka-50 the rockets used were not KOM they are HE versions enjoy Tacview-20230517-124938-DCS.zip.acmi Tacview64_2023-06-26_23-30-52.mp4
