Das wäre toll. Ich will den Luftkampf auch lernen. :-) Habe dazu extra die F-5E-3 gekauft, damit ich mich auf den Dogfight konzentrieren kann. Ich weiß wie ich hinter dem Gegner bleibe, nur wie komme ich dahin? Und die BVR Taktik brauche ich auch. Ich glaube meine Situational Awareness geht viel zu schnell flöten. Ich fange einen Flieger an der Grenze ab und dann geht es nach den ersten BVR Raketen in den Dogfight und nach 3 Minuten bin ich plötzlich über feindlichen Terrain, weiß nicht mehr wo Norden ist (geschweige denn, wo ich genau bin - erst recht nicht, wo gerade alle Einheiten sind) und muss mich zusätzlich noch mit SAMs usw. prügeln... Ich versuche heute Abend auf dem Community Server zu connecten. Hoffentlich klappt es. Die letzten 5 Versuche blieben leider erfolglos. :-(

Ich komme seit heute nicht mehr auf den Server drauf - DCS World funktioniert nicht mehr. Sowohl mit Release als auch mit der Beta.

Hello Pilots, In standard settings there is no key assigned to "Kneeboard - Previous Page", so I assigned the "[" key. (In german layout it is the ü key) But even then it doesn't work. I still cannot go to previous pages. And everytime scroll through all pages is not really a solution. I tested a bit and found a strange difference in the <Saved Games>/DCS/Config/Input/F-5E-3/keyboard/keyboard.diff.lua I attached the file after assigning the key. There are two entries for the same Button. The ID only differs in one additional minus symbol in the middle. One of them marks the key as removed, the other as added. Additionally, in the DCS Options screen, tab controls and choosing the F-5E sim, I found something strange. If I go to all controls I see my assigned key just as normal. But when I choose to only show "kneeboard", then I only see my assigned key for previous page, but not the one for next page. If I add a key to next page in all section, it doesn't show up in the kneeboard section. So it seems, that even they are labeled the same, they represent different things or IDs. I could solve the issue with previous page by commenting out both of the respective entries. So could anyone please confirm or disconfirm the bug? And could the developers please check it? I use Windows 10 Pro 64bit, German version, DCS World 1.5.5 and this is the only function that produces this wrong behaviour. Best regards Sebi Keyboard.diff.lua Keyboard.diff.modified.lua

Dear AvioDev, On the Front Panel, UHF Comms, Main Selector, I found a position named ADF. Does this mean, the C-101 has an ADF for NDBs? How do I use it? I tuned the right frequency, but nothing happens, even 5nm away from the NDB in 4000ft. Best regards Sebihepp

Errr, sorry, I think I don't understand Tangos Post right. (maybe some ironic?) THey will finish the C-101CC and the AFM before release, but they hope we can press the download button today? Well, do they want to finish all developement before release? Then we had to wait much more than a day. Or was the part with AFM ironic and they still want to release today? Okay, there is a third option: They are nearly finished with AFM and CC and that's why they hold up the release. But I don't believe this. Could you please clarify this for me? I am waiting since thursday and look at the webseite about every hour. If you need more time, it is okay. But if you could say this, I don't need to check that often, resulting in less disappointing moments.

An this is where the money gets important. Perhaps the developers don't have enough money to also implement the EFM? Think of Microsoft and Windows. They also didn't start with Windows 7, but with DOS. Even ED started with Lock On and continuesly developed further.

Thank you very much, for your reply. I will buy the AvioJet on Thursday and I also want the EFM or AFM, when it is done. I just hope that I don't have to pay the full price again, if I already have the SFM... Otherwise I would wait until the AFM/EFM is finished.

Hello AvioDev, I follow your project for quite a time now and can't await the release on thursday. Despite you have still much work to do, (think of the EFM/PFM/whatever) you did a great job. :thumbup: But before I buy it, I have some questions about. Will it be compatible with EDGE alias DCS World 2, when it (EDGE) is released? Or the better question: Do we have to pay for the upgrade to DCS World 2? Next question is about the better flight model: Will there be an upgrade option or do we have to pay for the whole again? And last but not least: Do we get the manual also in English? (I can't speak Spanish) Best regards Sebihepp

Nutzt du BitDefender? Ich habe mit BD (BitDefender) und DCS World auch Probleme. Mit BD2013 konnte ich es beheben. Du musst die Exe Dateien als Ausnahme in der Firewall und in beim AntiVirus einstellen. Außerdem musst du eine Ausnahmeregelung für deinen Netzwerkadapter einstellen. Als IP nimmst du deinen gesamten Netzwerkbereich. Zum Beispiel 192.168.1.1/24 Ich habe vor ein paar Tagen auf Windows 8.1 und BitDefender 2015 aufgerüstet. Jetzt kann ich sogar alle Funktionen deaktivieren, ohne dass sich DCS World verbinden kann. Erst eine Deinstallation von BitDefender half. Ich habe diesbezüglich schon ein Ticket bei BitDefender geöffnet - vielleicht übersehe ich ja nur eine Einstellung... Edit: Ich habe BitDefender 2015 neu installiert und nun kann ich mich plötzlich verbinden... komisch.

Hello, I get a strange crash to desktop. I start my computer and can run DCS World perfectly. But if I exit the game, I can't start it again until I reboot my computer. No error messages are shown. There only opens the console, like every start, and then it closes. In the task manager the process is disappearing as well. The dcs.log is attached to this post. best regards sebiheppp dcs.txt

Hello, I got an idea today for more individually rearming on ground. I think of an additional menu item in ground crew->rearm with the name "individual". After choosing this, you have to chose the hardpoint, lets say f1 for hardpoint 1, f2 for hardpoint 2, and so on, then select a weapon type like CBU, GBU, AGM, and so on, and finally the specific weapon. And after this only your selected Hardpoint gets rearmed with the selected weapon. This would allow to rearm everything you want, but the predefined loadouts are still there for fast and easy access. What do you think about? best regards sebihepp

Well, I also think this would be a very nice feature. You can make much better training missions with simulated failures. But there should also be system failures, for example: fuel leak, oxygen failure, generator failure... of course only the ones, which are already implemented in the game-engine.

Hello, I use the x86 executable on my 64 bit machine with TrackIR and everytime I change to F4 View (looking backwards) the camera spins around the plane randomly.

Okay, thanks. I will have a look at "Oakes thread". best regards Sebihepp

Hello, I want to build my own cockpit in near future. I already know how to export Data from Black Shark to an application via TCP-Sockets. But for my Cockpit it will be necessary to send data to BS too, For Switches f.e. . I tried to use "recv = socket.try(c:recieve("*l"))" to recieve a string terminated by a linefeed. But BS waits with the hole game until anything is sent. That's the synchron mode. Is there any possibility to ask, if there is data waiting in the buffer? Or better any way to make the connection asynchron? I searched "lua socket" via google, but I found nothing I can use. And I don't know wich library BS is using. Or is there any other way to tell BS it should perform an clickable action? best regards Sebihepp

Really? Damn, I didn't seen it. =) Thanks Sebihepp

Hi everyone, before you are killing me: I don't want to cheat. I only want to play around a little bit in singleplayer and try some modifications on the weapons. I found the weapon data in "config/weapons/missiles_data.lua". The biggest part of the structure is self explanatory. For example M for Mass and H_Max and H_Min for Max and Min Altitude. I only want to know, if it is possible to let the missiles fly an ballistic trajectory? I mean, if they are fired horizontally, then they fly higher and sailing the rest of the distance. Like the AGM-88C, for example. Wich Values have to been set for this feature? And this are the fields I don't understand: - Escort - Okay, I know what this is. 0 means "Fire and Forget", but the other values??? - Cx_pill - Head_form - h_min_t - all Fi_ fields -OmViz_max Best Regards Sebihepp

Hello, is it possible to show the names in the ABRIS(AMMS)? I mean for Airports and/or cities? And I just saw the patch for the german DVD version. I have this version, but on the mission editor the names are displayed. Do I still need the patch? Or is the patch for the ABRIS? Greetings and TIA Sebihepp

I did it! :thumbup: The Encoding is "UTF-8 without BOM". Thanks Sebihepp

Nope, it doesn't help. Can someone upload the original file? I don't find it on DVD. And how it is encoded?

Yes, I used Notepad. I didn't know that Notepad can cause Problems. I will try to download Notepad++, use it to save the file again and then I reply again. Thanks Sebihepp

Hi, everytime I load a mission/campaign/track... the game crashes with an APPCRASH at "initializing effects", right after I edited scripts/world/airdromes.lua. I just wanted to change some frequencies of the airports and therefore I edited the file. After restarting the game, it crashes. Then I undo my changes and save again (sorry, I hadn't made a copy), but it crashes always on initializing the effects. I think, I saved the File with wrong encoding. (UTF-8) My PC: Core 2 Quad Q6600 4 GByte DDR2-800 RAM ATI Radeon HD4870 512MByte VRAM Windows Vista Home Premium 64Bit SP1 (and all other updates) German Version of Black Shark (DVD) Thanks in Advance Sebihepp

Hello, I played the campaign mission "On the other side" and shooted down an hostile Mi-24 and then got shoot down from the other Mi-24. After my engine got fire I break out (use ejection seat). Suddenly, after the mission, I got the medal of bravery. But I didn't shoot down anything else. :huh: Wich medals exist and how can we get them? And wich rangs exist and how many points are needed to reach them? If everybody posts his success with a short explanation, we can make a list of them. :smilewink: Greetings from Germany Sebihepp P.S. By the way: No word exists to describe this game. It's just wonderful. I like the fully clickable cockpit. Excellent work developers! :thumbup: And excuse my bad english. :(

Ah, I don't know that they must have visual contact to the targets. Then I will try to fly closer and give them the orders again. I always stay on waypoint 4 I think (The waypoint before the target). but last time my wingman engages ground units and then close up to formation leading the bandits right to me. :lol: But why does the escort did nothing? After they shoot down the Su-25s, I didn't see them anymore. Thanks for your answer. Sebihepp Edit: I always use LWin+D or LWin+G to give commands to my wingmens.

Hello, I hang in the campain mission "on the other side". But not the mountain is my problem, it's the ai. There are 2 bandits Mi-24 engaging me and my wingies. But I cannot tell my wingies to engage air targets. And if I command them to engage ground units, then only unit "4" is engaging. The other 2 stay behind me. First time I got killed by the Mi-24s, next time I shot one down and the other killed me. I just can't see them early enough on the TV for using a Vikhr. Anyone any ideas? TIA Sebihepp
