Thanx for the quick response! :thumbup: I´ll try to make sure to set to BER-mode and see if it works. Will the ground page get back in the hot fix as well or later in a regular update? Thanx again for an amazing module! :pilotfly: Best regards, M

:thumbup: Best regard, M

Thanx for the info! About the Elint writing to file, I haven't seem to get the kneeboard update the Elint page after landing. Could that be because of this issue too? Might be user error on my part though, thats why I'm asking. And I also can't seem to see the kneeboard page with the ground info settings and the cartridge. Is this also related or maybe something else? Best regards, M

Well maybe something is different in release vs open beta then? I definitely did quite a few runs with perfect hits when the sight did not drift under the hud. I should add though that it was easier to just point the nose down rather than rolling in to the dive. When rolling it often had a tendency to start drifting. But if not a too steep angle I could correct it though, by pulling the nose up a bit. Again, I have no clue if this is the correct behaviour or not. If we could get some more people the test this it would be good :) Best regards, M

What I found after testing this tonight was that steeper dive angles causes this to happen. Can´t say any exact numbers but around 20 degrees or more, especially on lower altitudes. If coming in really high it was often ok even with steep dive angle. If coming at around 10 degrees it seems to be ok. I can't say though if this i is correct behaviour or not? Maybe it is, and should be like this? The tests were done starting in air straight for old kobuleti airfield were there were 4 vehicles as targets. Maybe someone else will come up with either something similar or different? Best regards, M

Ok, thanks for the info :thumbup: Best regards, M

Good to hear :thumbup: May I ask what the issue was, just out of curiosity? Best regards; M

Yes, you do sound harsh and demanding. And the way you do it makes it sound like the Viggen is in really bad shape. Which in turn might scare other customers of, with less money to the developers as a potential effect. That is, in my opinion, not fair. Because it is not in a bad shape. (besides the recent CTD:s, that I am sure they will fix) There are a few useful buttons in cockpit not working, but it does in no way take away from the experience at all. Not in my opinion, anyway. I have been flying DCS since before Black shark and this is one of the most fun modules of them all. That is why I'm reacting against what i feel is unfair statements. When saying things like "Its a joke" and "Half of the switches not being clickable" (and that is simply not true) and claiming refunds etc it sure makes it sound like you are stating that it is in a really bad shape. And that is not fair, at all. Best regards, M

I really agree to this 100%! Thank you Heatblur for making Viggen and keep up the good work! :) Best regards, M

This was very well said!:thumbup: And that is exactly why I don´t think they should spend any time on this. Best regards, M

The one on top of the radar stick is animated. Think it is radar on/off/B-scope.(can't remember right now, from the top of my head) But rather than looking at the button on the stick I just look at the radar if its on or off :lol: Or i can just feel it on the switch on my hotas, which stat it´s in. The "trigger" on the radar stick I don´t think is animated though. But I would never bother to try to look at that one to see what state it is in. The are other "visual" things to see that state our just feel it on my hotas. /M

I´ve had this happen to me too. I´m at DCS 2.5.2.19273 Update 6 Hotfix, though. But they're probably the same regarding this. I'm really not sure though if this is from my pilot error or not. Hope more can chime in to make it clear if I just need to practice more... or not :pilotfly: I´ll test it some more myself. Best regards, M

+100 to this! :) Best regards, M

Yes I don´t want that. I rather go with the more realistic one that is already there. An option would take development time, and I don´t want the developers to spend time on that. You could mod it as the developers just was posting. And then you could have your wish without making developers spend time on something that is already as it should be. /M

Well its not unreadable for me. So I don´t want the developer to change this. And I don´t see the problem with the pictures posted either. Its not unreadable. /M

You know that it is in early access, right? No need to remove that from sales then, because things like that we just have to deal with if we bought it in early access. Developers know this is bad, I'm sure of that, and they are working on finding the problem. I wouldn't say its unusable though, even though very annoying to have to close DCS every time after each mission. /M

Well the buttons on the radar stick should definitely be mapped to your hotas, and not clicked on in the cockpit. As far as I've seen the A-10 or F-18 as an example don´t have clickable buttons in cockpit on the sticks either. And all models I've seen so far all have some amount on non functional buttons in the pit. So I don´t see that as a reasonable reason to say this is not a high quality product? I for sure think it is! /M

Looks about the same on my screen and I find that readable enough. And since the developers claim that it is quite accurate I take their word on it. Best regards, M

I just don´t think that non animated radarstick is that much of a deal? And non clickable buttons on it doesn't bother me att all. These should be mapped to your hotas anyway? Sure there are a few buttons that should get fixed. But nothing that take away the fun from flying this module. For me it is definitely one my favourite module to fly. To each his own I guess. /M

+1 to that. Because I just don´t find it that hard to see the hud and I don´t think they should change it. Best regards, M

I would like to add something that might help. If I don´t use the radar at all the first time I fly I can start the mission again without CTD. At least as I don´t use the radar the second time. But if I turn on the radar it CTD immediately. Best regards, M

Thats good to hear :) Just what I was thinking, that it seems quite accurate and readable enough :) Best regards, M

I get the crash even without any emitting radars in the mission. The crash happens when loading mission a second time. I can replicate that every time. I just made a simple mission starting in the air and landing on Kobuleti without any enemies and did not fire any weapon. Here is what i found out: If I don´t touch the radar(just left it at Nav) I could start the mission again without CTD. But if I set it to Land Nav it CTD when trying the same mission again. If I can do any other tests I am happy to assist, just tell me :) Best regards, M

I tested this just now with the Mirage and that is working without CTD. Tested both to quit and re-fly without landing and after landing and it worked both times. Best regards M

I can confirm this also. If I quit misson without landing and hit re-fly it is working. But if i land first then it CTD. This is with the OB with todays hot fix installed(DCS 2.5.2.19273 Update 6 Hotfix). Best regard M
