  1. Baco- i would be cautious if i were you. i dont remember seeing anything about it in the forum rules, but i have a feeling trafficking in human organs -even your own- might be a bannable offense. perhaps Newey or 9L can weigh in on that?
  2. not sure what Pitkun would be able to use your kidney for. i dont even know what the kidney-to-shekel exchange rate is.
  3. i only got to mess around with it for a few minutes, but looking better. wish there was a paint kit avail before you shut the project down indefinitely thanx for everything so far tho!
  4. Better load up on that stuff. If u dont hoard some now, there may be a run on it later and what if you need some soil in a gardening emergency and find out theres a shortage?! Where will you get your dirt then? Load up, my man, load up. All i got to say about that
  5. Please, no. Weve had about 15 months too much of 2020. Can't take another 5 years of it
  6. The continued success of il2 supports this. Some people want to enjoy flight simming without a few months of study to use systems effectively...i mean, that mastery is rewarding but if youre long on responsibilities and commitments but short on time, the idea of a lengthy flight session may not be feasible. I sometimes go a few weeks because i cant budget an hour or two in one sitting to get a basic flying session in. Some of the esoterica we've come to expect in a dcs module represents perishable skills in some cases even to the RL pilots...even more so to the average joe with plenty of other things competing for what may be the most valuable commodity of all: time I dont think mac is for me, but i can certainly see a niche it can readily fill
  7. Excellent news, good to hear this module is still getting attention. I dont fly it often, but its enjoyable when i do
  8. I hope this means perhaps nibbylot is in talks with a dev to bring this to full release status, something id gladly pay for. I brought it up on the polychop discord, i think it was, cuz they have an affinity for light helos but someone expressed doubt based on this variant being in service....i dont care what version it is...500d, oh-6..i just wanna don a Hawaiian shirt, slap this livery on it and channel my inner magnum PI
  9. Watch, all y'all figure it out, and then all the sudden he begins to enjoy the gaz.. Like dr strangelove " how i learned to stop worrying and love the Gazelle "
  10. FWIW, i never paid full price for a module- just got a couple each sale till there werent anymore. some i dont fly often, but none do i regret its worth waiting to the next sale and then getting the rest of the helos
  11. Yea, i was gonna suggest LLH as well. Blacksharkden i assume is another good one, both have plenty of folks who can help adam get the most outta any chopper he ends up with
  12. I cant think of a more polarizing module, tho harrier and f16 come close I wont say that either side is entirely right or wrong, it largely comes down to your play style and what you want out of dcs. "Good" is a highly subjective thing Thats partly why i said if you like the other light helo, ull likely enjoy this one As for individual systems, i cant remember. Flight time is kinda hard to come by lately, and im trying to work my way thru all the a10 and mi8 DLCs . If i wanna just blow off some steam, i have a mission with a carrier off lebanon that i use the gazelle to blast some insurgent go-fast boats, escort some hueys to an airfield, fly up and down some valleys at treetop level to take out some bmps and shilkas and then mosey back to the carrier. Its fun...at some point ill make my way back to learning the gaz as well as i have the shark
  13. Thank you, 9L, this thread has been stuck in "how dare you enjoy what i dont like" mode for too long and the haranguing does little good for anyone Initially i couldn't stand the gaz, even tho i wanted to like it. As i learned to tune the axes, it gradually became one of my favorite airframes and certainly one of the most fun to fly ones
  14. Same twilight zone where "If you don't want to buy the Kiowa, don't. I get it." Is a personal attack. I just wish people would enjoy things a bit more
  15. Thats why the Gaz was my first recommendation to adam , over the other helos. Theyre each unique and have their own strengths, but the gazelle is fun in ways the others aren't...especially when high-speed buzzing thru iranian villages at below rooftop level :) My only criticism of it is is doesn't work "out of the box" and for a long time i found it hardly playable, but once you tune the settings just right, its a blast Adam, if you enjoyed the ah-6, youre gonna love the gazelle. Get it next sale
  16. Tbh, for the longest time i didnt realize there was documentation. When i found out, i looked thru one or two manuals and then went right back to using chuck owls guides instead
  17. Thats why using a 3 letter abbreviation for the month rather than a two digit number is so useful. 06 09 20 can be read multiple ways, 6sep20...not so much
  18. That just means youve synchronized yourself with the clouds
  19. Theres nothing wrong with that as long as theres been some indication that its been maintained . I seem to recall nothing but dead silence as well. Yes, the dev is one person. whose native language isnt English, but as i mentioned google-translate is a thing, and he doesn't need to write patch notes entries- ED is capable of doing that after receiving updates from OctoG Not posting notes on updates, even if an update or fix is made, isnt a good approach: it leads to the impression that this is abandonware . Its a great entry, even moreso considering its just one guy..but to release& then have no communication is somewhat disconcerting
  20. Thats excellent news..not the dot, but that this project is still alive& kicking!
  21. Wait a minute, wait a minute.... you mean its not?!?! Its shaped so well to fit the basket tho... think you just crushed my world
  22. i keep trying in the mig -15 (let 'em spray it in the intake), but no joy so far
  23. Thanx. I hadnt looked into it, TBH life has been happening a bit too much lately and severely limiting my flight time. It happens Edit: i tried, i renamed the dot, was left with no dot but instead a square where the dot wouldve been
  24. He did? I didn't know that. I like ghe idea of having it selectable in the rearm/refuel window, or in mission editor
  25. Pretend buy? Nope actual buy, in a heartbeat. And the gazelle is pretty legit when tuned right
