Hi everyone, Since the last patch, the seat cushion is not "hidden" when pressing backspace. The stick and the "frame" of the seat are hidden correctly.

can we get a single missile per side option, it rather fly with one missile on each side than 2 on one and none of the other here is my evidence

Red Storm Rising Server - Liberate Syria Campaign - Mi24P - Cyprus RSR server is running brand new Syria campaign with Mi-24P (with slinging and troop pickup) and Cyprus bases. We are trying something new in DCS: Dynamic PVP campaign based on a goal. Server Details Server Name: Liberate Syria - Red Storm Rising | RSR | Live Webmap: http://map.redstormrising.net:8080 Website: https://www.redstormrising.net/ Server IP: redstormrising.ddns.net:10308 SRS Server IP: redstormrising.ddns.net:5002 Discord Server: https://discord.gg/NRvtGax So what is new and different? Instead of capturing a full map, we built a server around a goal/task. Your task on our new Syria map is to liberate Syria or capture it fully. It's not required to capture every base on the map, but rather you have to control major (4) cities on the map, and kill enemy carriers. Whoever accomplishes this task first wins. Read more about the mission below: MISSION DESCRIPION: This version of the map is based on historic war in Syria. Syria was attacked by NATO supported Separatists. The base of Aleppo, Palmyra, and the city of Raqqa were captured by the terrorists. Most of the country is lost. The main places Syria can fight from is Bassel Al-Assad and Damascus. Syria's ally Russia lands in Bassel Al-Assad, setups S300 SAM systems and tries to recapture the lost region together with the Syrian army. THE GOAL: You do not need to take every base on this map. All you have to do is control major cities in Syria and kill enemy Navy in order to win the campaign. RED GOAL: Liberate Syria - Control Aleppo, Bassel Al-Assad, Palmyra, Damascus, city/FARP of Raqqa, and kill starting BLUE Carriers together with Tarawa BLUE GOAL: Conquer Syria - Control Aleppo, Bassel Al-Assad, Palmyra, Damascus, city/FARP of Raqqa, and kill starting RED Carriers together with Transport Dock MISSION SETUP: Capital for BLUE is Incirlik Capital for RED is Damascus Each side starts out with 7 loaded bases and 1 loaded FARP. Number of ground units and airframes is equal across teams. Both BLUE and RED team starts with 4 warehouses. Two of those warehouses are pure Army warehouses where you receive Tanks and IFVs. You may send those units to the battlefield, or to your bases. The third warehouse is the Naval warehouse where ships spawn. The fourth warehouse is for Short Range SAMs. Manage your units carefully are resources are not unlimited. Both Bassel Al-Assad and Aleppo bases are fully loaded as those bases see most action. Incirlik and Damascus bases are patrolled by Ai fighter squadrons. SOME OF OUR FEATURES: Mi-24P Sling Loading of Cargo and Troops (Internal sling loading enabled during Early Access) New Syria map with Cyprus AirBase, FARP capture system Chopper operations (Logistical operations using helicopters. Performing: repairs, installation of SAM systems, installation of tanks, IFVs, artillery, transport, JTAC delivery) Infantry Pickup and Delivery Internal and External Sling Loading One of the most developed CTLD Sling Loading Operation in DCS Expended Mission Info Showing status of the campaign, personal status, team status, intel on enemy State of the campaign is saved and all progress comes back after server restarts, so your work is never lost Unique features like Anti Ship Missile System, SCUD missiles, Artillery setups, and lots more can be player slung and controlled No restrictions on weapons, you can use your modules the way you purchased them. Ability to have your own skins Anyone can be a TAC COMMANDER, JTAC Operator Personal Stats and Performance can be viewed on our Discord Channel Mi8 and Huey can carry crates internally and externally All types of ships are at your disposal including submarines You are able to control everything on the map Naval and Army Warehouses Ability to make infantry work together with armor Weather marks and weather information at your current location JTAC, RECON Drones, Air Resupply, all at your fingertips Concept of Capitals Ai Cap supporting capital cities Despawn Blocker implemented not allowing people to despawn in the middle of the fight Spawning on Carrier for fighter jets, helicopters, Harriers You can repair all SAM and Missile Systems JTAC, SAM, and total unit count team limit to control overbuilding/overcrowding of maps Cargo Airplanes can capture repair bases and deliver JTACs to the field Ability to setup Rolands and HQs as full system or independent launchers SD-10 and SEAD missiles on SU-33 and Flanker variants to help BVR balance between BLUFOR and REDFOR. No mods required. CSAR to allow players to rescue their previously ejected pilots to gain lives back Limited number of lives on jets to add realism to your play Crate pickup from Tarawa and Transport Dock Staging Points for last resort comebacks Dynamically player spawned AWACs, EWRs, Tankers EPLRS mission wide for A10CII AirBases, FARPs, Loaded FARPs, Harriers on FARPs Auto GCI for choppers and CAS airplanes Realistic Weathers with Wind No TacView exploits Server is build for fun, but intense war. Joining the server or our Discord will help you get started. You may also ask any question you like here on the forum.

Moin ich habe hier mal einige Key Commands der Mi-24P erstellt bzw. sie so angepasst das man sie auch auf den HOTAS legen kann. Möglichkeiten der Installation. Variante 1: Link: ***outdated*** Einfach den Inhalt der Zip Datei in das Hauptverzeichnis von DCS schieben und die vorhandene default.lua überschreiben. Nachteil nach jedem Patch muss diese wieder eingefügt werden und es besteht die Gefahr das neuere Commands seitens ED überschrieben werden. Die jetzige Datei ist auf den aktuellen Stand und überschreibt keine vorhandenen Commands. Variante 2: Ihr nutzt den Link: DCS Input Command Injector und fügt dann diese Datei in euer Save Games Verzeichnis wie hier in meinem Falle aufgeführt Der Vorteil ist das nach jeden Patch automatisch die Custom Commands in die aktuelle default.lua injected wird und aktuelle Commands seitens ED nicht überschrieben werden. Ich hab hier das mal vorbereitet aber geht trotzdem bitte in den obigen verlinkten Thread und lasst wenigstens ein Like für den Author des Scripts da. Link: Mi-24P Weapon Selector und OBSERVE HOTAS Custom Commands mit Quaggles DCS Input Command Injector Mod Beide Varianten sehen dann im Spiel so aus und können von nun an auch auf den HOTAS gelegt werden. Der Command OBSERVE als ON Funktion findet ihr weiterhin und der Kategorie 9K113. Der wird leider nicht unter Custom Commands aufgeführt. Damit der unter der Kategorie Custom Commands aufgeführt wird müsste man direkt die Original Datei editieren. Gruß Bishop und viel Spaß damit.

Hi guys, A little confused here. The hind seems to be munching my FPS like crazy, with most modules i get 50/60FPS with decent settings, but with the hind I am barely getting 30! Any ideas whats going on? any settings I can look at to smooth it out? See my settings below. MSI z16 laptop with 3060 32gb ram I7 11800H

A Roarrrrrring Gooooood mooooorniiiiing DCS and especially MiG-21 maniacs! Plesase support me on these wisch: MiG-21bis that we have in DCS is equipped in RSBN/PRMG nav system. As we know the system is mobile - it's installed on URAL trucks and can be moved to a random location by road / offroad. So my wisch would be "To have a mobile RSBN/PRMG system for MiG-21bis, L-39C / L-39ZA Albatros, Mi-24, MiG-29, Su25, Su27 in DCS!" These way t-offs and landings would be possible from random locations - even in heavy weather conditions. As we know Warsaw Pact Pilots used to systematically practice such operations. I would be more than happy having a possibility to recreate it in DCS Virtual World. With my best regards. 303_Kermit

So, from newest newsletter, we got Mi-24P gunner with Ratnik program uniform, which is 2013+. This is sad for me as i do historical missions. What year is our Hind based on??

Мы с моим товарищем Amarr Sarum запилили гайд по ДИСС-15. Здесь и теория и практика. Гайд поделен на несколько "уровней" по нарастающей. Надеюсь, сможем этой штукой помочь людям как в освоении навигации вообще, так и на Ми-24 и Ми-8 в частности. Данный документ уже выкладывался на форуме в отдельном треде, но я решил сделать под него отдельную вкладочку. От команды G&A. DISS-15 guide.pdf

Been watching alot of videos on the M2 Browning Ma' Deuce, now inspired to make a wanna be controller, that will be functional for the UH-1H and Mi24P doorgun position. (hoping it will work for SA342 minigun variant and ch47 Chinook in future) **UPDATE** 07.26.2023 Eagle Dynamics added joystick binds to the Mi24P doorgun, so this build is working The minigun build is a blast to use, but agony to build. Trying to make this a fun project! ***NOTE**** if you plan to incorporate a bass shaker, you should add a relay to the trigger circuit, else any butt kicker out put will go to the shaker regardless if you are pulling the trigger our not, butt kicker wiring diagram TBA LINK TO STL FILES Spade Grip assembly https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5863116 Top Gimbal Section https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5927492 Gimbal Base Section https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5932560 DCS Axis Controls and Button Assignments mappings: axis doorgun slew LEFT/RIGHT, axis doorgun slew UP/DOWN VR Re-center Fire Weapon Move Camera View Right Move Camera View Left Move Camera View Up, Move Camera View Down Move Camera View Forward Move Camera View Back Radio PTT List Parts (so far) : 2x M3-20mm screw (switch housing) 4x 1/4-20 x 3/4" bolt and nylock nut (mounting grips to c-bar) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BLKSYV3M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 1-1/4 in. x 2 ft.

Unknown from when, but possibly since 2-3 OB-versions ago, the countermeasure dispense sound is very low and difficult to hear in the Mi24 from the outside view. Other modules do not have this issue, and the dispense sound is significantly louder and distinguishable. Track files will be produces. In the meantime; anyone else experiencing the same issue?
