A little fact goes quite a way. Especially considering no one has taken a dime of your money for this one, motor, there's no reason to react the way you did
-
with the syria map on its way, can one of you talented livery artists produce and israeli skin for this?
-
And one more thing... How could I forget the A-4 as part of our aircraft suitable for Vietnam map?
-
nope, not at all. perhaps you read too much into my statement, perhaps i read your statement directed at my previous ones rather than being made to people in general. you overlooked the part where i said this ones a hard pass for me, but if you get what you want i am (sincerely) happy for you
-
i said it before , and i stand by it: this thing is vaporware and miltech-5 largely exists only on the good intentions of fragger and the wishes of the rotorhead community i would absolutely be thrilled to be proven wrong, in which case the sonic boom you hear will be a result of the speed of my wallet springing open i dont think we'll be seeing it anytime soon
-
for once, you and i are in complete agreement, on all these points Fri im stunned
-
If you hold off on preorder, Murphy says itll end about a day before you open your wallet If you preorder now, discount will probably go on another 6 months, then itll go on sale
-
As long as theyre not yellow, im game
-
Whatever floats your boat. Yea, i mean i suppoooooossse you could use some sorta watercraft I guess, if thats your thing
-
Driveable water vehicle? You got it..
-
Lol, not even released yet& people are demanding a 50% off sale right off the bat
-
Go with mi-8& ka50. You wont regret it
-
None. When flying, the idea is to avoid the terrain.. or at very worst- to aim for it& miss
-
Sure, when we get the DCS: Domino's DomiCopter module
-
F-5, F-86, MIG-21 also saw use there as well. f-14 saw one deployment at the end of the war. the mig15 could stand in for the 17 i dont care which variant is correct for which era, we'll never get them all. sometimes a module has to stand in for any given variant
-
that would really bring together their aircraft and rotorcraft teams, and when i used to watch those fly out of northern kuwait that was pretty much my response: amazing
-
thats no reason not to voice dissent. I certainly didnt say there was no market for it, i said from my point of view that sounds like a ridiculously boring module, and i stand by that. The only person anyone can speak for is themselves if you get what you want, im happy for you. but from where i sit, it doesnt make a very compelling sim module, no matter how kewl the pictures may look if the only ones who can voice an opinion are those with the "correct" (ie positive, supporting, enthusiastic) opinion, then the discussion becomes meaningless
-
Just one more reason to drop steam for standalone
-
By buying it again. There's an add-on pack for just the c101 to supplement your existing module
-
i dunno. i think it wouldve been better without the teeth. an f-16 doesnt wear them well. when i first saw them , the first thing i thought of was this unfortunate little guy
-
and thats where you get me wrong. ive argued in favor of the an-2, the c-130 (non gunship variant), the v-22. ive spent plenty of time flying non combat missions in the mi-8 hell, ive even come to enjoy the yak52& CE2 we have on the other hand, ive said some aircraft that people get excited about dont make compelling DCS modules, whether thats the b52, the b1, kc-135, the U2. wonderful airplanes, all of them. Poor candidates for DCS sims so, whats the difference between a c-130 and an awacs plane? like i said, the mission profile for a awacs doesnt make a compelling sim. i suppose the E-2 can be interesting for takeoffs&landings if carriers are your thing...but airforce has awacs too (i work at the one of the factories where they were made, nowadays the cabinets inside the p-8 are made here and installed down the street) and those done even have carrier traps...what lies in between? circles or racetracks...fun fun fun. wake me up when we're finished having all this fun. a c-130 does a wider variety of missions. delivering paratroopers, point a-to-point b supply runs, air dropping supplies, all potentially in unfriendly skies (a combat jump for the paratroopers is about 500 agl, well within any ground fire) v-22 does all that, plus what we'd expect out of a huey or a blackhawk hell, id even welcome a chinook module. not a lot of variety of missions- sling load, air drop, transport, fast roping, troop transport but there is a lot required of the pilot in each of those and finally, evoman, i understand you want an awacs, but you also need to make room for dissent. there needs to be more to discussions than agreement and "+1"s. if i come up with an idea thats retarded...then there should be room for someone to say "nah, thats a bad idea". Im not saying your idea is retarded, i was voicing the idea that an awacs could be a pretty boring plane. If they dont make it (and i dont think they will), itll be no great loss as far as im concerned, If they do make it, congrats- i hope you have a lot of fun flying around in circles . sincerely, no sarcasm intended. but you can count me out with any awacs plane
-
ok, i must be doing something wrong then
-
so heres the situation- i install my mods directly into my dcs directory rather than using a mod manager (although i think the same issue arrises with mod managers) the problem is having multiple mods to the same directory which all use a file titled "entry.lua" for example, if i want to have installed the civil aircraft mod + military aircraft mod + the flyable AH-6 mod...you get the idea...i can only have one entry.lua in the directory at a time is there a way to merge multiple entry.lua files to have all these modules play nice with each other?

AWACS plane? In DCS? Sounds pretty boring, like watching paint dry or water evaporate Let's see- take off, fly to station. Fly circles or racetracks for a couple hours till relief arrives& then RTB Yay As far as being in the belly of the beast, I've had enough radar scope time identifying tracks IRL to say thanx but no thanx That module would be a hard pass for me
