Great work on the update, this is a big one, very excited to test out the Viper's new capabilities. I've never noticed you link back to the issue post's before relating to your fixes, kudos to that. It shows us that you're listening to us!

You never noticed it because it's the first time for them doing it.

Looks like an amazing patch, just one small question though - did the F/A-18C 'default' livery get it's external tank textures fixed or just the VF-106?

The new Voice chat is great! Now, Betty and ATC is talking through the headphones instead of the 2.1 Soundsystem - feels so much better. Even Wags talks in the Quickflightmissions through the headphones.

Now, that´s a reason to enjoy Multiplayer Server again.

Thanks ED! Perfect addition to DCS, especially for the use with VR!

The Fuselage lights are not working correctly. They do not flash like the wingtip lights. They remain steady no matter the configuration of the switches. Not a showstopper by any means, just letting the devs know. I ran a repair also, and that did not fix the issue. All other lights work great. Thanks for the hard work ED!

I believe these are working internally, so hope to see these in the next update. Thanks.

About those lights, when going into Covert mode, I should be able to see them with the NVG’s only right ? So far when going Covert the lights indeed go infrared but I can’t see them with NVG’s. Or how is it supposed to be seen ?

Patch install

 

The new patch does not seem to be auto installing into World open beta am I missing something?

Now, Betty and ATC is talking through the headphones instead of the 2.1

 

This wasn't even mentioned in the notes, but can be seen in the voice chat thread on the settings screen. As I have often asked for the separation of environment and headphone audio onto different sound devices, this is one of the best feature additions of the patch for me. Makes it about 20% more realistic

 

But I've yet to try it myself... I wonder what 300% switches volume, which also is a great addition for those who wanna hear more due to the lack of feel, does to the Heatblur modules

If you ran DCS within 24h hours already, it won't fire up the updater again. Head down to your Start menu, Eagle Dynamics, DCS World OpenBeta an hit that Update DCS World OpenBeta link there, which basically runs "DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS_updater.exe" update. This should give you the update if you haven't got it already. If that doesn't help, try a repair as well.

Have to take a round with the Tomcat tonight to hear if Jester now also speaks through the headphones. :)
