The Kiowa was released basically complete...then it got a great sound update. The Kiowa isn't waiting for anything as far as I know. As for the CH-47, it is still waiting for things but it's totally operational. I use the CH-47 all the time in my group's missions for capturing bases by bringing troops or units with CTLD, and also bringing warehouse supplies with dynamic cargo. I don't know what other helicopters you may be talking about.

Yep, we'll have to wait yet another month...but I am happy for the Viggen guys though. hopefully, next month we will get the AI A-6E as well. (that AI intruder is about as elusive as the Loch Ness monster at this point...it will probably ask us all for "tree fiddy"

The Sept patch is scheduled for tomorrow (9/17), will we be getting some updates for the Tomcat as well as the AI A-6E. The last couple months we haven't had any updates from HB at all, but we did get teased not long ago with the pic of a lot of A-6Es on the CV-59.

Seems to have worked fine just now without the error message, so maybe it was just a temporary issue.

Today I'm getting auth error 400 followed by auth error 203. It says it is using saved authentication and I still get logged in to DCS. This has been happening today although I believe the first time I went in to DCS after the update there was no error, so maybe just in the last 3 hours. I restarted steam and then restarted the computer, still getting the error message...but also still getting into DCS

I was on Cold War Contention yesterday, and still had the FPS loss looking north to northeast from Wittstock airbase

I'm having the same problem. Hot start on the CV, request landing, atc answered, LSO talked to me behind the boat...hook is down. But, I have done pass after pass in the last hour (many of them quite respectable) and can't catch a single wire. Bolter, bolter, and bolter again. The odds seem against missing the wires that many times in a row.

Nothing at all from Heatblur in this patch?

I notice that there is nothing from HB listed in today's changlog. I hope maybe that just means that HB didn't get their list of changes to ED in time (as often happens). If you can't give us anything else, at least keep some nice new liveries on hand to give us during an "empty" month.

The new ROK skin for the CH-47F looks great...however, the skin's name is "Republic of Korea Army (JGSDF)" Koreans will be very surprised and unhappy to know that they are part of the Japanese Ground Self Defense Force

I was also really looking forward those, I expected they would be in this month's patch

Good, maybe they just didn't get the changelog in (as happens more often than not)

Same problem, in north eastern East Germany looking north in the direction of the sea. 30-40FPS drop, but if I turn my head in another direction its back to normal FPS.

The release candidate is already in testing for launch, it isn't going to be a long wait. "Later in 2025" is just a non specific date they are giving for now. I feel like the cold war map will release this month, probably in the next couple of weeks. I think ED wants to get this map out first as it will build hype for the FF Mig-29A which I believe was scheduled for quarter two of 2025.
