What a nice surprise! I'm personally really looking forward to trying the updated F-16C flight model stall behavior and turn speed and the HUD update, plus the new spotting dots.

So many fixes for the F-16C FCR in the last few updates as well!

It's just a shame I can't try it out now. Maybe later or tomorrow. Thanks ED!!! 🙂

Merry Christmas!!! 🙂

What was the purpose of this?

These units already have a hard time tracking & turning.

Even outside of that, they don't even shoot 20% of the time..

null

  • Weapons. SA-2. V-750 missile. Decreased G-limit from 17 to 6.
  • Weapons. SA-3, 5V27 missile. Decreased G-limit from 16 to 6. Decreased counter-countermeasures level. Change liquid motor smoke tail to solid fuel. Decreased size of motor smoke plume.
  • Weapons. SA-5, 5V28 missile. Slightly decreased G-limit from 12 to 10. Slightly decreased counter-countermeasures level. Decreased second stage smoke transparency.

These SAMs have over preformed in DCS for years. This is actually a major improvement!

On my updated DCS the Mirage still works fine:

so, it isnt a DCS problem ... you really need to inspect your install and make sure no user mod is conflicting and your antivirus is banned from touch the DCS files.

Thanks for the huge Christmas patch! Landing the Viper on roads in Finland, here I come! (fixed excessive roll/yaw issue in landing config)! 😎

Just one question: did Santa forget Heatblur for this patch, or was Heatblur naughty and forgot to send the patchnotes? 😉  🎅

Nevermind, just saw on Discord that the changes apparently made it in, put patchnotes hadn't been written yet.

I was a backend problem, not a user problem 😉

Last year several updated models(S3, B52, B1) was released. Some were disappointed these didn't match the vidoes shown. Turned out they super high def models was supposed to come as a paid pack together with some super high quality ground assets) these seem to now have come out for free. Which is a fantastic gesture from ED.

As a newcomer to DCS, I approve of this kind of thing! Currently playing the Dragon's Fury campaign and it's just nice to have the Chinese assets pack and the Marianas map for free. I still am going to buy Kola and Syria and the Viggen and the Warthog and some campaigns during this sale --- it's just great not every piece of new content is a paid module!

The patch also rocks. I didn't expect that, today of all days!

When launching the DCS_updater.exe, the windows suddenly close and launch the game without making the update.

A clean and repair (and restart) doesn't help. First time this append in my DCS life.

One reason for that is when launching the updater from DCS launcher it does that if you dont have enough disk space for the update, happened to me a few times and didn't realize until i launched the updater manually and then it gave me a hard disk space error.
