null Welcome to the 480th vTFS! I'm Josh, or if you prefer "Cooper". I've been a part of the flight sim community for years now, since I was only 16 during the times of Rise of Flight. I've always been extremely passionate about aviation, but one aspect of aviation that I can never get enough of - is Cold War era aviation. Big birds like the Eagle, or Tomcat, or more relevant to this post, the Phantom have always been some of my favorite aircraft ever. Now with the F-4 in DCS and the Cold War Germany map, I can start a true passion project of mine - starting a Cold War era F-4 Wild Weasel squadron in DCS - with a focus on flying how they flew. Flying the real patterns around Spang', flying the real approaches, using the tactics they used... etc. What is in the 480th vTFS? An easy-going, open-minded, friendly atmosphere, with passionate like-minded people looking to simulate what it was like in the 480th TFS during the 70s and 80s as realistically as possible, without making it a second job. Custom made skins that were researched to match the paintjobs of the real 480th jets during the 70s and 80s. Custom made in-flight guides for Spangdahlem and the areas around it. These use as much information from the 80s as we can get (albeit this information is very limited), and the rest is inferred from modern FLIPs, and other FLIPs from the 80s. Regular, weekly coordination and collaboration with the REFORGER community in DCS. An atmosphere of learning. We're all passionate about this hobby, and as you probably know, this hobby involves a LOT of learning. We'll all learn from mistakes. From mistakes while flying, to mistakes in my research, and as time goes on, we'll have a better and more realistic group for us to fly in What are the requirements to join? You must be at least 18 years old. You must own the Heatblur F-4E module. You must own the Ugra Media Cold War Germany Map You must have SRS downloaded and installed And finally, you must have a working microphone and HOTAS. If you're interested in joining, come stop by our Discord group! Me and my wingman Mobile after the last REFORGER Joint Training Exercise

Hi friends, a friend of mine has a problem with his Ka-50III. He has a new computer and reinstalled everything, including DCS. To use his Ka-50 he has set English as the language for his instrumentation, but what is particularly strange his abris keeps displaying information in Cyrillic. We searched this forum for the possible solution to the problem and found it in the modification of the file, "\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit\localizer.lua." The modification suggested by a forum friend said to replace the contents of the file this way: Original: if LockOn_Options.avionics_language == "native" then country = "RU" end Modified: if LockOn_Options.avionics_language == "Russian" then country = "EN" end It actually works but from then on DCS recognizes the integrity check compromised. What do you think could be the solution to this problem? Thank you

Hello, I hope you are having a good day. If I am making this post on this Forum is because I need help with the development of my aircraft carrier mod. In fact, I have been developing a French aircraft carrier mod for the community for some time. And I'm encountering some problems, particularly with the new Supercarrier update. Indeed my mod could accommodate stations such as the LSO station for aid to the country and therefore add a touch of entertainment and simulation to the mod. With the arrival of the Supercarrier update and the AIRBOSS functionality, I therefore wanted to work on the Charles de Gaulle Airboss Station and that's when I realized that the Stations no longer worked on the mod despite code that appears correct. I deduced that the new update made the stations on the mods unusable.. However, it is important for me and for the mod to make it as complete as possible and therefore to make the stations work in order to make the mod as complete as possible for the community. If anyone has solutions or if official DCS developers can see the post in order to discuss it that would be extraordinary. I thank you all very much for the attention given to my post and I wish you all an excellent day. If you are looking to contact me to discuss the mod, solutions etc. I will put my contact details below. Discord : feauxe Gmail : Marais.gaby@gmail.com Thanks very much everyone.
