Bagpipe

noted this on the AJS37 Viggen RedFlag, AI wingman/flight lead pops up to new altitude at last km or so of travelling to next WP. Very off putting

I'd love to help but to me it's a bit of a grey area. Sorry, couldn't resist!!

On first inspection, 2.5.6 WIP environment effects get a big "tick the box" from me ED :thumbup: Interesting changes in the Viper cockpit, love that the lights are now working corectly, in two minds about how some of the textures have changed on the switches etc. though i am sure it will all come together with future edits. Shadows would be my next major change (what with my years and years of experience in editing software...not :doh:) The external shadows let the sim down, we need higher def shadows. It is most likely on your list and just around the corner but at the moment i am just having a bit of a ramble in honesty. I hope you don't mind. I just hate when i am blown away in the cockpit and then occasionally switch to external view and see a big old jagged shadow floating around. Other sims have this issue but you can edit the settings in the console and get everything just how you and your system like it. (Unless there is a way to do this without breaking IC in DCS??) Anyway, Really a great start to the year though guys, sunsets have never looked so damn good. Thank you

Luckily they released it on the BETA PLATFORM and not the STABLE PLATFORM. I mean imagine something being unfinished in BETA STAGE... never fails to bemuse me

My guess is i will be waiting longer for something to make up for my wasted cash...:music_whistling: I'm playing of course though if HB DID want to send something my way then a PM requesting my details is always a good place to start :lol:

If they throw me in a free Tomcat campaign or something then we are all good. Until then i will continue with my sulk

That is the only thing which bothers me too, other than that it is a really great module to fly which takes finesse and careful planning when dogfighting due to G-limitations of ordnance. I have since bought the Mig21 and i prefer the 19 hands down though it is a much newer module. If bought during a sale i dont think you would regret it especially not with the free BD campaign which comes with it

Wait? What? The nevada red flag campaign i paid for is now coming free with the module i paid for?

Most likely a DCS limitation, but with the Vigg now having a pilot body, has anybody else had a chuckle as they raise and lower the seat height? The poor pilot's neck muscles must be killing! :lol::music_whistling:

I am beyond angry with ED and am totally let down by the entire DCS franchise and related 3rd parties.....said nobody ever! :megalol: Carry on! :thumbup:

Shot the enemy Mirage with cannon in this dogfight, not a great hit not alot of damage but seems to have messed with the model and he is still flying around like everything is hunky dory so pretty weird looking. :doh:

.

Yeah, i don't turn it on until engaging and have never experienced any issues

If you can;t ctrl, alt, delete to task manager when the game crashes then i would say there is something not right with your windows potentially

Nice Shadow

try delete your fxo and metashaders folder in your Saved Games folder

:megalol:

Attached image shows contrails of offline SP "rubber banding". If flying in formation on a gentle turn then no problem but the minute i disengage AP and tighten the turn, mayhem. Not always an issue but definitely something going on occasionally. The planes do not fly they just slide around the sky trying to get back in place in formation. This was during new MBot DCE mission but have experienced it in various aircraft and in various missions/ME/IA flights. :huh:

Ahhhh! :doh::doh: I have been looking for it under the FA-18 campaign section but i now see it at the bottom under DCE section. D'oh! :smartass: What a plonker, was right all along

Do i have to add the "F:\Documents" part to the start of the path line?

Please see attached screens showing that i have tried this and still can't see it in the campaign menu? am i missing something obvious?

Hello, Please can i have clear and concise installation instructions/mods for installing this to "F:\Documents\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta" I have changed the .bat files and followed all previous advice but still doesn;t appear in campaign menu. I have tried symlinking but still nothing. HELP!

None of which have a map? Get the FA18 Agressors campaign, it will keep you busy for a while but you must pay for it. Also the dynamic campaigns on here are brilliant (MBot DCE etc)

Perfectly understandable but in which case i refer to my comment on post #4 regarding the mirrors freezing the image when switched off. They need to fix this small aspect of it and then i am happy, personally not bothered about mirrors provided they at least a) fold away (yes) and b)turn black when switched off (no) :)
