This is the behaviour that I would expect hence my comments above as to how I 'achieved' it.

Good idea, just tried it and yes, it works, however once you jump the other aircraft no longer follows the waypoint but heads to the nearest friendly airbase... Wingman jump test success.trk Wingman jump test.trk I have done this for a cinematic video, perform the SEAD part of the mission in an F16 with an A10 parked close by as I leave - RTB and watch the A10 taxiing out, then jump into the A10 for the CAS element...

It's very sunny where I live...

This is my 4th year of DCS, so in many ways I am late to the party! I was recently reviewing a couple of cinematic videos that I made back in 2020/21 and I was astounded how poor they looked compared to my more recent 'productions'. It is easy to lose sight of how much has changed and how much has been improved upon in recent years. There are thousands of DCS acolytes with an equal number of opinions, agendas and personal desires as to what should take precedence. Ultimately DCS is a hobby, a pastime, a diversion, sometimes an obsession but not actually essential to life! So, without being too sycophantic, for my part, thank you ED, looking forward to exciting times.

Many ammo dumps at airbases have this 'firework' effect but not all.

Ok, which was?

Yes it does, take off from ramp...

Without wanting to state the obvious there are 6 other maps with the potential for carrier ops...

I have (happily) pre-ordered the whole map, I do not need any salt water, the pricing and map segment EA releases are crystal clear, I can live without taking off and landing in Pakistan, getting new map assets are not keeping me awake at night but... can we have an indication of storage space required for the complete map please?

For an unknown reason Tacview stopped recording. I reinstalled Tacview and I now have the following problem... While DCS is running a 'mission' 2 files are created in the Tacview user specified directory, I have included the 2 files, when DCS exits these 2 files are deleted. Neither file reflects the track. The Tacview files are: Tacview-20240330-095424-DCS-GBU 12 Delete.txt.acmi Tacview-20240330-095424-DCS-GBU 12 Delete.zip.acmi They are both 0 bytes and cannot be attached to this post. For information: \Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\Hooks Contains TacviewGameGUI.lua \Saved Games\DCS\Scripts Contains TacviewGameExport.lua \Saved Games\DCS\Mods\tech Contains Tacview folder - the contents of the folder is shown in the attached .png file Any input would be appreciated. TacviewGameExport.lua TacviewGameGUI.lua Tacview not recording.trk

My 2c would be that these soviet aircraft have a WOWs sensor to prevent accidental retraction. My father flew Lightnings and Vampires in the 60s for the RAF and said you couldn't retract the gear on the ground...

Thanks for the reply! Perhaps not, however I have never needed to use ST as a diagnostic tool...

As in the title... (Before somebody suggests it... I renamed the bin folder to bin.bak and DCS ran without any problem)

Which runways /airports have arresting cables modeled please?

Not as such, no, the track can be played in DCS and using a screen recorder (like Nvidia ShadowPlay) you can pause and edit the track that you are recording but that might obscure important details that the moderators / devs / 'experts' are looking for.

I despair at the amount of times this has to be said...

That would certainly be easier to explain!

As I know everyone who has commented on this post is eagerly awaiting an update... This morning I decided to do an auto cold start, something I probably haven't done this year, and lo and behold the normal switch sounds were clearly heard (you can imagine my surprise!) I then changed the mission to a hot start and ran the mission again and yes, the switch sounds have returned. I KNOW this sounds bizarre and I have no explanation but I'd like to say thanks again to all that contributed.

This track is from a MP server and is huge! Can you create a simple SP mission to demonstrate the problem?

The SU-27P1M doesn't show in the aircraft list in ME?

I have just downloaded and installed the latest update update - however in DCS ME I cannot find the SU-27P1M? Other CH modules are present including the updated MiG-29, am I correct in thinking these updated aircraft are AI only?

No, I never mess with the main installation. Thanks but remember, it's ONLY the switches, EVERY other sound is unaffected.
