Can Wags please confirm that the seperate modules will be the same as for the people that already have FC3 i mean AFM etc..

Cause i bought FC3 and i dont really understand the seperate modules for such a high price if you get FC3 and Lockon its cheaper i think.

I don't think FC3 owners will get AFM updates. I think at some point it was announced that the AFM will be released for the A-10A (like a tuned up version of the A-10C one), but I guess they decided to release it all separately (and not for free :)). Hopefully there'll be some other features planned in future for the separate modules, but it'll have to wait for some more detailed announcement regarding these modules..

 

I don't get why the MiG-29 and Su-33 are not getting any attention here.. I hope it's because some 3rd party is making a separate module for the 29.. Su-33 is more puzzling as it's not THAT different from the Su-27 to be too much work. Maybe they are saving it for a later carrier ops package (like some features developed for the later F/A-18C).

DISCLAIMER: My posts are still absolutely useless. Just finding excuses not to learn the F-14 (HB's Swansong?).

 

Annoyed by my posts? Please consider donating. Once the target sum is reached, I'll be off to somewhere nice I promise not to post from. I'd buy that for a dollar!

Think about it. It would not make any sense otherwise. It would not make any sense that one F-15 is flying with an SFM and another with AFM. Also, they will probably add new features to each aircraft, and having two different products with two different sets of features for each aircraft means a lot of maintenance for ED.

 

I bet they will break the logic up so as each aircraft gets its own module anyway and then update FC3 so that it simply bundles all modules. Then develop each module seperately. And yes, that means AFM for FC3.

Cluster bombs still ruin my frames though.

 

Go to ..\DCS World\Config\graphics.lua

Open with WordPad.

Change maxfps = 120; to your average fps: 30,40,60..

Also do set V-Sync ON.

 

Now all should be much smoother and less gfx stuttering. :)

Still dont understand it..what could i do with no clikable cockpit only for 20 usd?

 

For one, the pleasure of not having to install LOMAC first, no doubt as a result of NUMEROUS community complaints and requests.

A vicious circle :D

Open with WordPad.

 

Do NOT use WordPad, it is a ... it is bad. Saving lua files with WordPad can and has in the past led to corrupted files. Use a good editor like Notepad++, which is lightweight and also has the advantage of code highlighting among a myriad of other useful features.

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

To cater for those individuals who do not have FC3.

 

Thank you for that.I was asking myself "why should i buy FC level aircraft if i have them already".. :)Now i get it.

 

Operation Kill-Lockon 1.0.. Very wise.. Thank you ED.:thumbup:

Not. :smilewink:

 

CAUTION AN OPINION HAS BEEN DISPLAYED!!

 

Not for most people.

 

In fact right now you can buy 3 full DCS quality modules for less.

 

I really hope this is a free update for FC3 owners like the testers are saying but I'd be happy to pay $20 for all the advanced flight models bundled together and for ED's hard work.

 

Just not worth $20 each to me.

 

Value will always be subjective. If I consider the number of 'flight hours' I have in DCS as compared to any other game/pastime then it becomes tremendous value. Especially when compared to the cost of entry (PC hardware/joystick/TrackIr etc etc)

An AFM is worth 20$ per aircraft....
Hmmm. If I didn't already own FC3, I would say sure. But I wouldn't pay $20 for a slightly better version (subject to argument) of what I already own. If they were full fidelity, that's a different story and I'd probably pay more than $20.

 

Kon.
