Radar is terrible. I'm having problems detecting incoming targets at similar altitude..just plain awful..

Does this mean if IFF is not ON, all contacts will appear as "enemies"?

?? What? :)

It appears disabling shadows makes the game crash-free. At least on my mind with the missions I played so far. Maybe it helps others as well.

Crashes i.e. freezes midgame for me as well. Mig-21 module. Why do the new updates have to f**k things up badly? I didn't have freezes since the early 1.5..now they're back again. Fantastic.

^^It appears it did the trick! I binded the key so it's "Bought" now. :) Thanks!

^^Well, that's the problem. In-game Manager shows it only as "Buy" option and when I click it, I'm taken to the DCS purchase page. I can't download it at all.

I was backer of the project..and back than I received a product key (I still have that email). Can't remember though where did I download the module. Anyway, I noticed on DCS main site, under products, Mig21 is listed as "Buy" and I can't redownload it anymore? What should I do? Thanks.

Right now, going against an R-27R armed MiG-29 is close to suicide. It has all to do with "luck" factor and very little with skills. R-27R has a greater engagement range than the 530D (DCS World).

Actually, given its fast approach and landing speeds, I would think the chute is quite often used by Mirage pilots, especially with shorter runways.

Speaking of radar, what's it range (I know this might be classified but rough guestimate)?

What are the rudder keys? I still cant turn after pressing "S"?

Where is the flaps lever in the cockpit (since the key bindings don't appear to work)?

Kinda interesting to see Iranian F-14 providing cover for Russian bombers. :)

Well, for the first time since the Beta got out, I can finally play the sim on high settings without any crashes. Thank you Mustang! I really appeacite the help. :) How did you figure out specific drivers and where to put the DLL files? I wonder if ED will include these DLLs for future updares (for R380 owners) so we don't have to manually insert them into the BIN folder every time?

^^Thank you Mustang. Will give it a try.

I have a 34" monitor..and once I go full screen (3440x1440) my game crashes. It doesn't do that at ANY system settings as long as it's windowed at a default resolution (1024x768). You think the monitor/screen res might be an issue?

I get the same. It is really frustrating and dissapointing to see the same crashes happening update after update..

And..here we go again. After the latest update, crashes are still present. I have a 34" inch monitor (3440x1440) and this is something obviously causing the crashes. If I use the settings (please see attached screenshot) on a small resolution (1280x768) the game seems to working fine. Although even then, enabling anything higher then FLAT SHADOWS would cause it to crash. However, when I use the same settings in a full screen mode, in a 3440x1440 resolution, the game always crashes on loading. The only way I can get the game to load under 3440x1440 is to set the TEXTURES to LOW and to completely disable Shadows. I have a pretty good PC (Intel Quad @3.2 ghz and Ati X380 2GB) so the hardware shouldn't be the issue (and I play DSC World 1.0 just fine on max settings). Also see the crash log. dcs.zip

Let's hope we (finally) get an AFM/PFM for the Fulcrum..it's way..way overdue..

Have you tried setting your textures to LOW?

Actually, I was wrong to call it a success. The game crashes with textures set to HIGH so in the end, the new update hasn't fixed any of the crashes I was (and still) getting.

On the upside, I can now use HIGH Textures without crashing. However, if I enable any type of Shadows, game crashes upon loading the mission. Beta fresh install, gfx ATI X380 2gb.

Second link requires registration. Could you please copy & paste or describe the sequence of events?

In its current state, which is to be expected, Beta is still very buggy. Once the major issues (like game crashes) get resolved, we should expect transition to a "standard" 1.5.
