FC3 Bug thread

DCS world ver. 1.2.2 and later one has a bug in the atmosphere. What I have noticed is that when clouds exist I see artifact all over screen in game which make it unplayable. If weather in game is clear no problem thought. I am sure many people already notice that! Please investigate.

For the last time, please post World bugs in the World sub-forum. Keep this thread for FC3-exclusive bugs.

Tunguska shoots down small fast kh-25 perfectly but does not shoot large and slow mavericks. Mb this should be fixed?

 

P.S. Targeting mavericks in A-10A is pain. The crosshair often moves in random direction, especially when flying at low altitudes. Mb a fix for this as well?

Is this because of the maverick in DCS A-10? As in, the crosshair isn't ground stabilized?

Jona, I did knew DCS-A-10A was out. ;)

Picture 1 (around the sun spots)

Not FC3 bug. World Bug - please post in World sub-forum.

Picture 2 (TrackIR is out from the canopy)

Cannot replicate with latest build - all is fine.

86 - SU33/27 and Mig29 Missile fire Zone computations bugged

...

I think the same is true for the AIM-7and AIM-120. While in the F-15 cockpit I didn't see any difference in the DLZ for those two missiles, although their range differences aren't all that extreme to begin with. I hope to have some play time later today and take a closer look.

Viper, Su-30 refueling issue. Please remember to add it to the list.

Thank you.

Thank you.

World not FC3. Only bothered with FC3 flyables in this thread.

Yes, ofcourse FC3, I know. same problem existed in FC2 and FC2 is way older than World so it applies to FC3 users too who transfered from FC2.

159th_Viper thanks

If it is not player-flyable then it is not a FC3 bug for the purposes of this thread where I am attempting to collect all the bugs relating to the Player-Controlled flyables and nothing more.

The SU-30 is A.I. and accordingly forms part of World. It will not be ignored - it will just be dragged over/entered over in those forums. I will however not add it to the list for reasons as explained.

159th_Viper thanks

No bother at all :)

Keep the reports coming as we have the chance to get the FC3 module as bug-free as possible so let's make the most of it. That is after all the purpose of the Open-Beta.

It is not turbine. It is a static guide vanes.

Aahh...so they remain static and all is well?

Got that Viper, then flyable will be all that I'll report from now.

By the I also wrote about the jerky roll of Su-27 between 700-1000kmph. I think its some flight dynamics bug.

Blades behind static vanes. If you look at AI jet you can see them spinning. Same for afterburner - AI F15 has animated afterburner, while player's one is static.

Just checked on latest build and with full tank/empty pylons and a curve of 15% she's as smooth as silk - no jerkiness at all.

Saw a pilot eject from an a-50, i dont think they have ejection seats...

Only FC3 Player-flyable aircraft bugs please.

List update:

 

15 - R27ER no loft trajectory *No Bug - As Intended*

 

36 - AIM-120C tracks target beyond gimbal limits *No Bug - As Intended*

37 - Ballistic AIM-120C locks target beyond FOV/Gimbal limits *No Bug - As Intended*

Care to explain the reasoning?

As for cobra... here are some results when you "force" it on through lua files...

Can be a major exploit if not fixed for basically freezing indefinitely in the air!

15: Post #83 of this thread - Real life R-27ER does not have a loft trajectory.

36,37: Missile behaviour regarding AIM-120 and R-77 explained in posts #81, 91 and 92 of this thread.

As for Cobra - it's on the to-do list for Dev consideration. No answer one way or another just yet. Do you have further details/track regarding that exploit? Cannot be allowed to stand if that is the case I would have thought.

Did you try to repair and to take off again???

 

I try to repair in multi-player, when i landed turn off both engine (one was shoot down anyway because of fire) call ground crew for ground electric then i call repair and wait for 3 min. After 3 minutes warning lights are off but my master caution alarm never go off. Then i try to start again but my engine (who get repaired) are broken again and can not be repair. I also try to simulate in the single-player and same stuffs happened in the single-player.

 

Bug: Repair are not working. It will repair you but when you start engines all failures are back.

Which airframe?

МиГ-29С

What about this one?

What about this one?

Added.

In the interim, if you have a track of the behaviour I would really appreciate it.

Su 27 IRST sensor not moving up and down

Su 27 landing gear not working

R 27ET (ALAMO C) According to Wikipedia range is about 120km in game is around 30. Same goes for R27ER

No R60 avaliable for su 27...

I can confirm that. I experienced the same thing, cartwheeling indefinitely.

Su 27 IRST sensor not moving up and down...

Not supposed to - not capable of being slewed in elevation IRL.

Not working how?

Wikpedia is not reliable per se. There are a lot of considerations taken into account in those numbers. Will however enquire, but 99% certain values currently In-SIM are spot-on.
