Nope, no change for me

Which is: - an advertisement - probably lab-tested - highly dependent on mounting platform

This is so weird a bug - my buddy and me play MP pretty much every second day now, and I never ever had one CTD in the F-14 so far. Here's to hoping they manage to nail it down.

That's the thing: you can only enter data on the scratchpad when the AAP is set to OTHER. In POSITION, STEER and WAYPT it is read only, isn't it? ***EDIT*** after rereading the section in the manual for like the 3rd time: looks like you can only call up specific Waypoints / Mark Points to use on the STEER page when the STEER PT dial is set to MISSION or MARK, not FLT PLN. I kinda find that dumb if it was the case, since the flight plan is what I am interested in, but alas! :D

Because it's no bug, but the correct setting. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=242533&highlight=efuz

I think I bought the A-10 a year ago, never did much in it though. With the LITENING2 upcoming for the F-18 and the gfx overhaul on the horizon, I started to dig in though. So far I could answer all questions myself, but here is one that evades me: when I got the AAP dial to other, calling up the WP page and then searching for a waypoint by number or ID - is there a way to directly select that waypoint as steerpoint, or do I have to go through those sequentially with the switch / UFC rocker / HOTAS control?

That link is dead, unfortunately - do you happen to know what the title was?

Auto trim is an option to be used in the upcoming MAC, they are using DCS as a testbed. Don't use auto trim. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3944526&postcount=16

So, there is no UI that I am aware of to the open beta standalone server, nor is there any argument to set or withdraw to start it WITH aforementioned UI. Still, the options.lua is in the expected ..\Users\<username>\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta_server\Config\ folder - it is pretty empty by default, but it HAS the plugins entry - so what you can do is simply copypaste the Tacview options from your client. This is my whole options.lua for the standalone server now, TacView now runs without the 10 min delay w/o issue options = { ["graphics"] = { ["height"] = 600, ["visibRange"] = "High", ["width"] = 800, }, ["miscellaneous"] = { ["autologin"] = true, }, ["plugins"] = { ["Tacview"] = { ["tacviewBookmarkShortcut"] = 0, ["tacviewClientTelemetryPassword"] = "", ["tacviewCompressionLevel"] = 1, ["tacviewDataRecordingEnabled"] = true, ["tacviewDebugModeEnabled"] = false, ["tacviewHostTelemetryPassword"] = "", ["tacviewPlaybackDelay"] = 0, ["tacviewProfilingPeriod"] = 600, ["tacviewRealTimeTelemetryPort"] = "42674", ["tacviewRecordClientsSessionsEnabled"] = false, ["tacviewRemoteControlPassword"] = "", ["tacviewRemoteControlPort"] = "42675", ["tacviewTerrainExport"] = 0, }, }, }

Probably, didn't have that information yet, though - will look into my server later today!

I dropped four GBU-31 today with elevation set in feet and all hit their mark (Caucasus)

Adding to this, only on NTTR - Mission set to "Client", game freezes after turning on the MPCD, regardless of loadout.

This is a month old and I have not seen any information on this, so: has anyone managed to remove the playback limitation settings for tacview on the dedicated server by now? Thanks!

The necessary alignment of the INS (Inertial Navigation System) to the actual, physical location your plane is located at. The system in the Hornet so far has been a placeholder and the team is starting to implement the correct procedure now, so that's why we are seeing changes.

Given that the F-14s burner is invisible right now I guess that's really temporary ^^

Them 2.5.5 trees really do look a lot better!

This. (Some) Hornet bugfixes, the general VR improvements and fixes for the 3rd party modules are (were) still scheduled for today.

Literally unplayable

Also we will still see bugfixes this week, as per the same thread https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3935071&postcount=42

No, he's pretty on spot with his reasoning.

Easy: the current state of the F-18 is *fine*. It received constant updates every few weeks since it's release, it's absolutely playable and usable and we are *now* entering more complex systems which take a bit more time. There is literally nothing to whine about. That's why I preordered the F-16 the minute it went online for pre-purchase: because I think ED is doing a pretty damn good job and I want to express my feelings by voting with my wallet.

And here we have a prime example, again.

This so much. The sense of entitlement of part of the player base is simply unbelievable.

Ah so I understood that right! Brilliant, thanks so much, Wags! :)
