KMGU-2 ;) Edit: And as always, awesome vid Col.Boob :thumbup:

It's threads like this which have kept me entertained over the many years. Bunch of children whining over what they can't have before the product has even arrived. I WANT ice cream!! Do you not think ED have some restrictions on what blk they develop? Do you think ED can just choose whatever blk they want? THINK about it!!

Can testify to that, 4 pylons of S-8's was my rock n roll load out back in the day. :)

Try Left Shift & Right click on the bin folder then select "open command window here". Once in command prompt you can update by typing: dcs_updater update

Chappppiieee!! :megalol:

100% agree. I'd love to see an F-15E in DCS but i've been around the traps and honestly expect a shit storm if Razbam attempt to release this in the next 12 months. No offense to Razbam at all but it's just my thoughts that they are biting off way more than they can chew and process.

I feel for you.. its quite a simple question. :huh:

Absolutely Lex.. but again i'l try to clarify the point of Hummingbirds thread here, seems like most people are missing the point of his request in this thread. Allow me to ask you a question with your experience as a real hornet pilot (which i absolutely value and thank you for your contribution to these forums!) I know this would not be done IRL but.. In your opinion, with your experience of the FCS, if you were to hold the override paddle while in 1G level flight, (with a fairly clean config so you have a 7.5G FCS limit) and you slowly pull till you get to the 7.5G limit, then slowly pull to exceed that limit, would the G increase be proportional to you stick pull? OR would when you exceed the 7.5G limit would the FCS suddenly jerk you to 8 or 8.5G ?

This is the point of the thread, Hummingbird is asking about HOW the override switch is modeled and if its correct. Not when to use it or how to use it, whats realistic and whats not.

I believe he is referring to declaration of war & participating in an act of war, two different things. ;) Regarding the triple mav thing tho, i'm kinda on the fence about it. I think if the airframe is physically able to load & fire it it's fair to have in game. We all talk about simulation, what if i wanna simulate being the last Iron Eagle to take out an Alien ground invasion and go down in a ball of flame for firing off the inner Mav? :lol:

Finally! thank you, my shout if we ever meet up ;) Close thread :lol:

Hi, I recently commented that i thought a feature in DCS was possibly a bug. It is not necessary to point out what thread or the discussion. The thread was closed and labeled [NOT A BUG]. I received a PM from someone at ED outlining and explaining why it was not a bug which i really appreciate & that the thread is closed. I accept that & am happy with the reasoning i was given from ED. :) My wish here is that the response from ED should be posted in the thread before closing so others with the same doubt i had at the time can see an official response. I think his would be a good PR move on ED's behalf. Cheers :thumbup:

That is NOT confirmation of a turbo prop sound. I understand the howl and whine of the F/A-18, i have seen many fly-bys/ displays. I just question the TURBO PROP sound.

Seems strange that no one has ever heard this sound on any RL flybys? No RL pilots have ever said "oh yeah i hear this lil prop rumble when my wingman is at my 4 or 5 o'c @ 400kts.. It's just this elusive "oh yeah that's realistic modeling of RL". Doesn't sit well with me. And it's not a 400 kts thing, the sounds increases in frequency as you accelerate up to 500kts. ( not sure where it stops/ or if it does as i have not tested that recently) Anyway i digress as it doesn't really bother me, what bothers me is how quickly people jump on the "its realistic" bandwagon when there is nothing true to life to back it up.

It's also been said that the parallel work on the F-16 does not affect the F/A-18 WIP. Can you guys give it a rest for once in your life and just patiently wait for ED to do there thing??? :doh: This day and age of entitlement is just insane :huh::huh::huh:

You may be right, im not sure but i personally feel it's a bug. Never heard any such sound from any turbine IRL. If it is realistic its way overdone. Just looked through the F/A-18 sounds folder and i cant find any sound remotely close to this.

& Welcome to the forums :)

You can always update by going to the DCS World OpenBeta\Bin directory. Open command prompt and run.. DCS_updater update

There is not much to it, simply put the bandit at the far left or right edge of your radar scope. memorizing tables is not really necessary.

ah the glory of the modern cable/zip tie! used one at work today (4mm width) and put about 50kg of tension on it to re-hook a spring back on it hanger. (bowling machinery) :smilewink::megalol:

This might help some of you :)

I'd pay to watch you two battle it out :lol:

Some great comments here. I disagree with people saying the F-15 is arcadey, in term of avionics sure it is but in terms of ACM it still uses a PFM so the flight model should be consistent with the real deal.
