Phantom453

Yep!

The Updater just updated itself. Another patch soon or will be the updater for 2.0??

...like I couldn't wait for NTTR before!!! Watching all those aircraft in the mix on that tacview video sure does make me think that we need the ATC fixed ASAP so it isn't the immersion killer is is now, rather adds to the immersion that we can already see from NTTR videos (although I did and still would vote for Dynamic Campaign as the next major feature for ED to tackle - we know though that they have been working on the ATC again of late.) Thanks for the videos and background info. All very interesting.

^ Indeed.

Prelude to the release of a Su-25 DLC payware campaign?? Just a thought. Good vid.

"Late November" = Anything before 30 Nov is a bonus!! :thumbup:

And hopefully not at this download speed when it drops, otherwise I wont be flying there until mid Dec.

....and half way through it dropped out due to server capacity. Might give ED a couple of days to sort this out before I try the update again.

Well I hope I don't have the problem some of you are having with the Mig 21, control bindings, textures etc. Something is not quite right though. 3.053 GB download here, but only coming down at 120 KB/ s, where for the last year + the DCS severs normally max out my connection at 1.1 MB/s. Gonna be a while at this speed.

^ have to back this up too - IMO. I too struggled with landing the Mustang initially, but compared to the German fighters, its like parking the family car. I found there are plenty of good YouTube videos on all the WWII planes - especially for landing and take off demos. A video is worth a 1000 words and practice is always your friend.

Most unfortunate. I think the majority of people have seen a significant improvement between 1.2 and 1.5. In my case I pretty much get double the frame rate that I did with 1.2, and now with all settings set to max (less those designed for screen shots/ video cuts etc.). I'm running W7 Pro 64.

Good to hear that NTTR and 2.0 seem to be on track for a late Nov 2015 release. Early Christmas present.

So I was just wondering Lino, do you have any intentions to make a Beacon Map for Nevada? I'm a big fan of your current Beacon Map and it would be great to have one for Nevada. Just asking?

You can get the ground crew to close/ open the canopy.

Gunship on a Commodore 64. played it for hours and hours. See it here:

And the point of that is ...... ? People list their problems/ issues here all the time and also the fixes for those problems. Seems this one got sorted very quickly, which I would think reflects well for your company. Nobody expect 100% perfection all the time, but they do appreciate quick and effective responses, and that seems to have happened in this case. Welcome to the forums.

Update: - so I stripped the joystick down and tested the switch and it worked fine. Double checked with another switch and also by swapping the suspect switch onto another switch connector, and it worked fine there, so not a switch fault. Given joystick switch #3 is indicating "on" (pressed) all the time, I suspected that there could be a pinched wire/ short somewhere. I stripped down the entire stick but could find no such fault. So I'm left with either a PCB fault or partial IC fault as far as I can tell, unless anyone else can offer any other suggestion as to what it could be??

yes. thought I noticed that just after the release of 1.5, but not observed since then. Will have another try to confirm.

Confirm - still getting flashing in the cockpit inside clouds and as exiting clouds.

Thanks. Some good fixes there.

Thanks. Appreciate the effort & share.

Thanks Lino.

I have mapped the "INT on Stick" and "Radio Button" to the radio control button on my WH throttle. From the front seat pressing the "INT on stick button" doesn't bring up the Interphone menu (nothing happens). However, pressing it from the back seat does bring up the Interphone menu. Pressing the "Radio Button" works from both seats and brings up the the R-832M radio menu. Mapping the "INT Button" brings up the the Interphone menu from both seats. I assume the front seat pilot has a button on his stick to activate the intercom (INT on stick) so he can speak to the ground crew and I assume the back seat pilot in flight?

Yep, I notice this too. In particular on the Instant action - Take off Batumi mission. It is definitely much darker in 1.5. The wind direction issue has been reported.

Thanks Lino - love your work and appreciate you keeping it current.
