Eagle_01

I would suggest running a repair on your installation. Just out of curiousity, which changelog are you looking at? Because the changes on the Mig21 and AV8B are on the previous patch. Not this latest patch.

I believe that would be the db_loadouts.lua file in the init folder. Thats the file I edited when I converted the old Desert Tiger campaign to fly the C101. (Still works in the latest open beta)

I think this would be a good supplement if you want Vietnam era type scenarios. It can act as a support aircraft to the Hueys.

I'm hoping for the OV-10 Bronco

Is there any mention of the throttle afterburner detent for the F-18 that I may have missed in the patch notes? I have a feeling I'm doing something wrong. My throttle detent setting in options is set to always on. I still see the animation on the throttle when I lift the detent stopper. But when not lifting the detent stopper, the throttle still goes all the way forward.

Yes that works. Thank you CEF.

Hi Miguel, I just found something weird. When I activate the indo-pak mod through JSGME. DCS open beta refuses to start. It simply shows the splash screen then when the splash screen disappears, nothing else happens. I repeated activating and deactivating the mod just to be sure. And I get the same result everytime I activate the mod.

Hmmm.. June 3rd for the next patch. To be honest, take your time ED. Delay if you have to. Just keep the quality of the patch at this caliber.

Awesome. I'll try that. I just had a gut feeling that we may also need to edit the db_airbases and targetlist_init since the CVN Stennis is mentioned in those files.

Just a quick question, which file do I have to edit to use the Supercarrier? Other than the Base Mission.

OMG! OMG! OMG! Thank you ED for giving my VR frames back! I spent about an hour dogfighting in my P51 with flak all over the place before I even downloaded the SC. The fps dips to 30 then back up to 40 with asw on. FPS on the SC deck. I didn't see much difference other than a few more stutters. But I enjoy not having to press F2 to align my wheel to the cat. Heck if all patches are like this. Delay all you want ED

There is a version out there that passes IC, but you will lose the clear water, unless you can mod it to have clear water. Its quite old though. This came out just about when the first 2.5.6 came out DCS VR Shaders 2.5.6 (ICpass).rar

Is the original mod or the clear water mod?

Would you be able to provide your settings and if there is any mod you use? Because my system isn't the best (see my signature) but I can even dogfight comfortably in a 8x f86 vs 8x mig15 scenario with several ground AA ai in my immediate area.

Depends on what ypu would consider big. So far these are what I've seen: 1. Edcore.dll is reporting as a false positive on anti-virus software 2. Login Authentication issues. But I think this is already resolved.

Try disabling your anti-virus and/or anti-malware then run a repair. That file is reporting as a false positive.

Tell me how it goes in VR. I couldn't try it yet. "options.graphics.stereo_mode_use_shared_parser = true" is an option that shares the image projected for both eyes instead of having to render 1 image for each eye. It helps in fps, but some things like lighting only renders for 1 eye the last time I tried it.

What time and timezone do patches normally come out? It's not fun living in the future.. Just about 5hrs left in 5/20 for me.

Before the last Heli sale. I only had the Flaming Cliffs and A-10C. After the Heli sale, I had all the whirley birds. Then the sale on steam started. The cries of my wallet was heard on deaf ears. Now easier to mention which modules/campaigns I don't have. PS : Pre-purchase of the P47 and Hind please ED

I can hardly wait for the patch. Having 2 installations of DCS, I can clearly see the gap between the stable and open beta, and its getting bigger. When performance would allow, I like using the Open Beta more than the stable. Great job ED in getting Open Beta closer to the performance level of the stable release in vr.

I've got a question about the supercarrier. If I bought the Supercarrier from Steam, but my DCS Steam installation is the stable release, while my standalone installation is the open beta. Would I still be able to migrate the Supercarrier license from steam to my standalone open beta?

Hi @BIGNEWY.. I think Steam is giving us a hard time again with their policies. The May 13 to 27 sale isn't showing in Steam.

Hi CEF, It's not a script and it only works on ground units. It's actually trigger events in the Mission Editor itself. I got the idea from the guy who edited the Normandy Flak map so that the Flak AI doesn't activate when there is no Coalition aircraft nearby. You can almost do the same thing for AI Aircraft, where the aircraft spawns when a coallition unit gets enters a trigger zone. But there is no turning off that AI, once it spawns, it's active until it gets destroyed. So... I looked at the triggers he used. The objects are spawned in at mission start, but there is no AI active until you get close. Eventhough the objects are already there (not like Prune Script), there is no AI active which reduces CPU load. But beware, Allied AI flights that enter the trigger zones will also active that zone's AI.

Is there a way to turn off the ground unit ai by script until a coalition unit is comes close? I edited the Indo-Pak Mig21 ongoing miz file to keep the ground unit AI off until a coalition unit comes close to them. It helped a lot with the FPS. Or can I do this to the base mission file so it would carry over to the missions?

I would love to see the FC3 planes made into full fidelity modules. I'll gladly pay for each individual plane as its own module if I have to. Those are the only Russian late generation planes. Sadly they don't get too much flying time because they are low fidelity. I would love to fly them in full fidelity.
