  1. I had to remove the new WW1 Flying Circus. Game won't start. All I get is the little DCS window when starting and then CTD.
  2. Unfortunately this mod doesn't seem to be compatible with 2.7.0. I tried everything to get the game to start. I removed the mods folder and voila, so I started removing mods 1 by 1 and when I got to this one, it wouldn't open until I removed it. I have been a real fan of this mod. Is there an updated version? The one I have is from 01/26/2021.
  3. Also, I used db_countries.lua to add the SH3-w for use as a Rescue Helo form the SC, even though the model is old, I have a skin that makes it look not too bad. I seem to remember something about ED adding it back to the list and also the SH60B was supposed to be brought up to date.
  4. That is the preferred method.
  5. But, the clouds is all we're getting right now. The whole weather package will still be a while.
  6. Sorry, I already thirded it. You'll have to be fourth.
  7. and I'll third the statement. Time for a drink.
  8. True, but IMHO when it comes to priorities I personally think that having a proper ATC system and AI's that act right are more important than clouds. I am anxiously waiting for the F4U and the Marianas map. They have also been teasing us about improvements to The Channel map with more airfields and such. In my opinion, the clouds could have waited until they release the whole weather package. See below. Draconis makes my point exactly.
  9. With all of the things that need fixing, looking at you ATC (among others), I can't believe that the only thing everyone's talking about are clouds. Screw the clouds, they are cosmetic at best. I want the core game mechanics to work. ATC, AI behavior, proper damage models for all units, RADAR, FLIR, etc. The list goes on and on. I really could care less about cosmetics right now.
  10. NVM, I figured it out. All missions are loading now.
  11. The last I heard, MSFS2020 world map is measured in petabytes.
  12. @Mistermann Thank you sir, this will be very helpful.
  13. And not anytime soon. Last one I looked at was $3,499.99 USD. Ouch!
  14. The reason I ask is, I am still not very good at shooting, so I have set up several "Target Practice" missions using RAT. The advantage is that they don't shoot back or evade. They are sitting (flying) ducks and I still can't take them down reliably. Usually they are too low and just a little too fast to catch up to. If I could get them up higher where I can see them and slow them down just a little so I can catch up to them it would help.
  15. Thank you Rudel, It never occurred to me to assign coalition to both color and sameonly. Apparently Excluded Airports isn't needed. It seems to be working so far. Saves me a lot of typing. Any ideas yet on setting speed and altitude? I know I must be doing something wrong.
  16. I have been using this script for quite a while now and I am very happy with it. I just have one question to ask. How do I make the planes/helos ignore neutral airfields? I use the commands SetDeparture({"AF's names"}), SetDestination({"AF's names"}),SetCoalition"sameonly" but I can't seem to have the planes ignore neutral airfields. Is there any way to have them takeoff and land at only the AF's that I designate? They will ignore AF's of the opposite coalition, but they still want to use neutral fields even though departure and destination are set. In addition, is there a way to set speed and altitude on RAT scripts? (I know, I said one question)
  17. Several of my missions, which I have flown many times before, will not open to the ME. It's not all missions, just some of my favs (of course). The loading screen hangs at the same place. Terrain Graphics init:97, (name of map) .ng5 No matter how long I leave it there, the mission will not load to the ME. Seems to happen mostly on Normandy and Persian Gulf, but sometimes Caucasus as well. This happens NOT when I press the fly button, it's when I try to open the mission file.
  18. I give up.
  19. All of the above plus: German bombers, please. He-111, Ju-87, FW-200, etc. Unfortunately, I read in another post that Pacific assets are not in the works. It would be nice to have allied and Japanese ships, aircraft and carriers. The Pacific was the other (and longest lasting half) of WW2.
  20. Gee, I guess I still haven't gotten an answer to my question. Which is more populated, MP or SP? If I hazard a guess I would say that the majority of players are on the SP side. The company (ED) will always do what is in favor of their largest player base. You, Steve, are very passionate about MP I get it. After two pages of ranting and being warned by two moderators, believe me, you have made your point, but I don't see too many people agreeing with you. I believe that SP players make up most of the total player base. Still waiting for someone to answer the question. As BigNewy said, no one is forcing anybody to buy anything. I'm sorry that you don't like the way ED does business, but I and many others do. I bought WW2 assets because I wanted to.
  21. I am insulted that you think that SP players are just "taking in the scenery." You have gone on and on, about this and that, who and what, how and when, up and down, inside and out for nearly two pages, ad infinitum, ad nauseum. So, tell me Mr. Expert (who doesn't seem to know what an apostrophe is) what is the population of DCS as YOU know it? How many MP vs SP are there? Just ask Steve.
  22. I used to keep a stable version along side of my Beta, but the space required (over 100 Gb each) and ED's policy of releasing new stuff only to beta has made me come to the realization that I don't really need the stable anymore. Stable still has bugs as well as Beta. The bugs in Beta don't really "bug" me. (pun intended) Having an extra 100+ Gb's available on my drive means I can buy more cool stuff when it comes out, also I can play with my new toys right away, so Beta is the way to go for me. I dumped my stable 8 months ago and I don't miss it.
  23. I have mobility issues and have difficulty with precision movements of my feet and legs. I use the TM T-Flight HOTAS. It has a lockdown screw to eliminate the twist grip and instead I use the rocker lever on the back of the throttle for my rudder with a 20 to 25 degrees curve . It works real well for helos and planes. A god send for people like me with F'd up legs. Much, much better than a twist grip. I used to have a Logitech 3D Pro and could never master it.
  24. What??
  25. "Suicide Is Painless" Great song.
