Talking about DCS, which is the best graphics enhancing mods I can install for the current steam version? I'm not on beta or anything so... I want to make the scenery better.

Also, regarding Il2 BoS, how do I reduce or disable the tree lod pop-in? It is immersion breaking when flying relatively low and seeing how trees are fucking changing shape on random basis.

I have no Arty spotters since in Basra as Iraqis you only command the tank battalion, and you only have a few APC platoons and two tank companies and a resupply platoon and an ARV platoon, no arty spotters, the AI has arty spotters and kept calling artillery on expected enemy locations throughout battle

>>169449423
I have pilot license as well. I strongly believe that in order to play flight simulators you should have at least some experience in real flying before even attempting to use simulator. Also, most people insult the developers by not using proper stick / pedal / gadget setup. I for example don't use teamspeak or anything for communication, I use real radio.

Also, it's neat that the aircraft get proper modelling, I've always wondered if a multi-platform super sim with both tanks and aircraft would actually be possible.


The closest I've seen to that is Arma 3 or Combined Operations, and both are massive, unmitigated clusterfucks

>The major advantage of Steam was that it used local prices. However that got removed as well.
I remember those days when it was pretty cheap. And steam sales used to be pretty good but these days the sale is not really a sale. They have driven the prices way up and during steam sale I have seen several titles to have fake prices which have been "reduced" back to what they were before the sale to look like they were 20% cheaper, etc. I think now steam doesn't really do anything else except than work as a intrusive drm similar to psn and others.

After getting Thrustmaster 16k, I managed to get off and land in Il-2 BoS. However, I am still unsure if I need to actually map any functions to the buttons at the base of the stick besides the default view zoom in/out stuff. Haven't done any actual combat yet so... that might be an issue regarding the controls.

>What did you have originally that made it difficult?
DS4 controller, it's too sensitive to play with. I used combination of that and keyboard but proper joystick is million times better. So I didn't really bothered playing the game before getting Thrustmaster. Even in Elite Dangerous the joystick is so much better than DS4 controller, even though ED is just an arcade game in that sense.

Il2 BoS: when I play with stick I can't access map by pressing 'm' or some other controls from keyboard - I don't understand what is going on. The keys are certainly mapped but when I press them nothing happens. Flying without map access is really... hard. Halp??

>>169467505
You have to have Hud option enabled in difficulty, and also have to have hud key mapped, press that, that will toggle things like map and subtitles to appear on screen or not

>>169467679
I have the hud enabled and spoken text already appears along with other hud information. But pressing 'm' multiple times just doesn't bring up the map. This is when I do a instant action or mission.

At some point it was working but when enabling joystick it stopped working, I'm pretty sure about it.

>>169469213
It shouldn't have anything to do with your flight stick, use the hud key to cycle through hud information, there's literally hud cycle modes that block the map from appearing

>>169469484
Is there a way to stop the tree level of details changing shape when you fly closer to them? It's really annoying they change suddenly shape when they land within certain radius from you. I know there are some config file tweaks on il2 forums but that only applies to ground textures not to the trees itself (they are sprites / geo).

>>169432778

>literally refuses to turn any of the AP systems off, even those that are purely for long flights and auto hovering

Its a horrible idea. If i pay for something then i expect it to work without problems, after many updates. Modders abandon their shit all the time, doing that with a paid mod burns the whole idea to the ground.
Licensing and legal issues, people building on others mods... compatibility, people would intentionally make their mod cuck out others then make you pay for the patch.
Not to mention the hell that it would be to use the mods a few years later.

If you want to see a much softer example of what it would be like just look at simcity 2000 modding. It wasnt paid but they had a crazy controlfreak approach to their mods and now most mods are impossible to find, which makes the mods that depended on them useless.

Basically getting money involved will crash the whole thing.

i know, but i dont understand why that is a problem for a semi active missile.


Ground clutter should be a prblem for the radar on the PLANE, i. e. preventing me from locking the target or keeping the lock stable.

If my radar lock is stable the seeker head should just follow blindly my input.

does this happen with the aim 7 / 350D too and therefore is DCS tier missile modeling, or it's just the 27r being trash ?

>>169533460
Missile tactics, including beaming and firing multiple missiles to close range have existed since the advent of RWR and realization that A2A radar guided missiles small, not high, chance of hitting

But good job showing your new

nah thats dumb.

This general is really slow and adding more games and people is a good thing.

I don't know why you are still trying to teach me things I know.

I also highly doubt that the strategy is the same when it comes to amraams.

At least in DCS Russians aircraft rely on getting close where as doing the same in the F-15 when you have AIM-120's strapped to you is retarded.

Next read a book on how not to make your self not look like a retard in the thread by trying to teach people things they already know.


I was simply pointing this fact out because we were just talking about how in DCS we use R-27's just to get into R-73 range and I knew of a real world example of this strategy being used and also wanted to post a picture of a cool Su-27 livery.

So its pretty well documented that the Soviets/Russians exported "monkey model's" of almost all their tech to other countries.

In the case of the MiG-29, specifically a slightly downgraded Fulcrum, called the 9-12A was given to Warsaw pact countries, where an even more downgraded aircraft was given to non-Warsaw pact countries, called the 9-12B.

What was the reason for this?
Money?
Not wanting their "best version" to fight against the USSR's potential adversary?

Let's say export models don't exist, and you're a military dictatorship in Bumfuck, Africa, circa, let's say 1990. Your continued power relies upon having a more well-equipped military than any local warlords that spring up, so you're in the market for the best tanks you can buy. So, doing so, you spend a considerable amount of money buying a few dozen T-72BVs, which in our scenario are about the best you could do at this time. After a week or so, you get a letter in the mail from the US state department. They're promising an amount of money equal to the entire GDP of your country for five years, in exchange for letting some guys in suits climb around your brand new tanks. What do you do?
That's the idea, at least.

Thats the Mirage if you count in that the Fulcrum can carry the 27ER/ET and R-77.

>>169559515
># of missiles is all that's important

Once you take your head out of your ass and compare radar, avionics, and the missiles themselves, the MiG is once again and always the worst '4th' (really 3.5) gen fighter their is.

Reminder the German Luftwaffe ranked the Phantom over the 29 in terms of ability.

It's an awful plane, with even more awful fanboys for it

>>169560497
The MiG's radar (at least in DCS) really is fucking pooopoo now that you mention it

>>169561117
It was never meant to be anything more than a more maneuverable MiG-21, a combination of that and the MiG-17, spawned from the dogfights of Vietnam. And that's basically all it turned to be.

A fighter meant for a war for a by gone age, that was leap frogged in technology by everyone else

It's not, it's nearly the same Su-30M2 that is operated RuAF right now but with weapon mounts compatible with western weapons.

The other Su-30 for RuAF, Su-30SM, is produced for internal used has a better engine, however, due to a request from MoD has no foreign electronic components. All the avionics are Russian-made.

While it's one of the best planes ever made (aesthetics of Flanker + modern avionics) it's still in small numbers, only 91 are operated by RuAF and 8 by Ru Navy. India tho has ~200 Su-30s and China has ~100 of them.

>>169560497
Once you realize that DCS is not real life and that the Fulcrums EOS can detect everything in all conditions and that combined with the joke flight and damage model (even compared to the Mirage) the odds are slightly on the Fulcrums side.

Just because on Blue Flag you are limited limited to 27R's don't think that the Fulcrum is a joke.

Is it just me or the ancient avionics make the mig-21 an incerdibly fun ride to fly and fight in?

Are we gonna hop in and body him some time?

>>169575814
kek. I'll play tonight if I've made a dent in any of the research and writing I'm currently drowning in.

>>169567314
Actually the joke flight model is limiting more than anything.

It completely stops moving below 500kph, while you should have excellent authority at that speed.

And nothing will ever be as much as a joke than the mirage-2000.
Even has systems on it in never had in real life

>>169576914
You mean the D2M?

I agree it's bullshit but it's a system that easily would have been fitted to the C but never was. They should disable it in MP servers though because I don't like having it and it causes crashes

>>169549070
Partly because India had France come in and upgrade its avionics.

Besides that, its not much different from the Su-30M2, like >>169564827 said.

>>169577046
>I agree it's bullshit but it's a system that easily would have been fitted to the C but never was

I honestly find it hard to believe that, because it's RAZBAM and they continuously guesstimate on what's possible.

>>169567314

The damage model has been fixed since the external models were released. The ability to tank missiles is basically completely gone.

You're vastly overstating the EOS's ability, even on DCS standards. It's really not good at all unless you as 're tail on or really close.

And like others have said, the PFM will make the Fulcrum better, not worse. It's avionics have always been it's weakness, but everybody argrees it's an excellent airframe with superb kinematic performance.

>>169577319
The EOS is strongest in close range, the long range mode is basically there to have something when your radar is off and you are being guided by GCI.

Hell IRL it would probably give you targets because of hot areas on the ground or flares from windows, but then again that's also a huge problem with MWS that work perfectly in DCS.

>>169577236
Well it just mounts to the Magic pylons that all Mirage models can use, and the cockpit has a switch for it?

>>169578067
So what is mounting the pylon going to do if underlying systems for it don't exist, and if the wiring is not in place?

It's like saying you can use an aim-120 because the pylon accepts it.

>>169530982
you're coming in too fast then

>>169578160
No but they wouldn't have updated the cockpit with the switch without the proper accommodation to use the system would they?

the French might smell but they aren't THAT stupid.

I've bodied him and he's never killed me.

It's simply because he acts like a righteous cunt to others, in comments on YT and Reddit. Hes fine in his videos and they are quality usually.

Mostly I just don't like how people worship a suck his dick anywhere he shows up.

>And like others have said, the PFM will make the Fulcrum better, not worse

It should literally be worse as in its SFM state the Fulcrum flies like it has fbw. It should fly like a Ka50 with all the AP modes turned off. The MiG-29's pilot work load and being a chore to fly, even to aim its gun properly is well known and documented

>>169580521
I just enjoy him moaning, don't even play DCS right now.

>>169583029
REEEEEEEE

this guy has a few subscribers, he's being more successful than me!!!
He's surely an arrogant cunt that doesnt deserve anything!!!!!

>you again

>>169583018

Just fuck off you nigger. His comments don't offend me. It's more that he comes across as a know it all fuck head and is just condescending. I don't normally like people that are condescending so I don't like him. End of story.

>>169583035
Yeah like the Su-27s got so much worse after PFM lol.

Also the mig-29 is aerodynamically stable.

>>169583225

y u do this :(

it makes much more sense to have the plane fire a missile even though the pylons aren't set, it's already too much of a pilot mode as is and it makes the SARH/IR switch much more sensible

500kph and it's stalling out of the sky, this shouldn't be happening.

ralfi doesnt even upload that often and has his own job so wtf are you talking about?

he even made multiple tutorials, hotas reviews and guides to help newcomers.

You are probably a slavboo or a BoS player, or both, and since ralfi shit on both for being what they are: shit , you started your little hate brigate.
Sadly you just look like a pathetic faggot

>>169583602
that is some janky ass flying, do you have curves set for your joystick?

>>169583810
Yes I fly russian planes in BoS so fucking what?
That doesn't change the fact that ralfidooood is a faggot.
Now fuck off!

Yeah i'd like to see you do better.

>/simg/ is deadass unironically arguing about ralfi dude at 6am in the morning

Good morning everyone.

>>169583035

The Fulcrum being on rails is what makes me want the PFM so badly. It just feels bad to fly unless you are going pretty fast. At slow speeds its supposed to perform well but right now it's choppy as fuck and feels like ass. Like someone said, its almost as if the FM isn't at 60fps if that makes sense.

I know what you are referencing. Workload they talk about is mostly avionics not being up to speed, but I've read the same thing about you in terms of controlling the plane.

Keep in mind this is US pilots saying these things after flying the F-16 and F-15, both have amazing FBW controls.

If I fly the Flanker without issues I don't fodder me having problems with the Fulcrum either. One of the big issues is the trim being so imprecise, like it's in steps and not nearly as pinpoint as the Su-27.

At the end of the day I just want the FM to be accurate, I want the weight and non-scripted landings, takeoffs and stalls.

I'm also hoping that the full release of the 29 as a separate module (like the FC3 aircraft) will fix a lot of the little issues.

>>169583810

Interesting how you know so much about him, anon, one could start wondering if you are like sucking his dick or something.

>>169583942
Explain your the shitty smoothness of your turns then. You bump all over the place.

FM won't save the 29 because it is a shit plane IRL so it will be a shit plane in game
Makes sense to me lol

>>169584129
intresting how you try to smear the person you dont like with fake accusation anon
one could think you are a commie cuck

>>169584193
Because if you ever flew the mig-29 you'd know what happens below 500kph, now fuck off.

ralfi has done more for DCS than any of you sad cucks
stop attacking him

>>169584367
>Pweetty pwese stop attacking my favorite youtuber

Killing "high profile DCS community members" is fun.

>It's because he's an arrogant arse and thinks he's hot shit

he actually got offended by that coment, wow.

does your fat white ass get all riled up when i say NIGGER too ?

If you hate BoS because of "Russian Bias" you're actually just bad at the game

All he did was moan that he got outskilled by slavshit.
He should stick to F-15s.

>>169585434
He also deleted the video one someone from simg flew behind him and he didn't even know how to use the mig-21 missiles, eventually he gunned him down

>>169585543
OH NO!
WHAT GRAVE INJUSTICE!
LET US AVENGE OUR FELLOW AUTIST BY CALLING RALFI NAMES BEHIND HIS BACK IN OUR SEKRIT CLUB ALL DAY
THAT WILL SURELY SHOW HIM!!!

>>169585434
he actually showed a yak being shot by 3 diffrent guys, leaking fuel and oil from both wings and still dogfighting without holding back.

Therefore he posed the question:
shouldnt all the holes in his wing cause some aerodynamic issue???
Answer was no -> bos not a sim


But nice try coming up with bs excuses

>>169585543
>things that never happened
why would he even post the video in the first place if he was shot down and felt embarrassed?

>>169585689
It's funny because of what a sore loser ralfi is,
Everytime he gets shot down he rages in chat and complains.

>>169585762
As opposed to you who, whenever something shoots down your russian wonderplane, comes here and complains about HATO OP NERF PLS

>>169585915
Are you 10 or something?

How do you know anything i do or don't do?

lets trigger the slavtards and actually show that bos isnt a sim with evidence, i start

look the amount of HEs landing on the mig and as always it results in randome "smoke" and no structural damage on the plane.
after a bit only HALF of the elevator falls off.

now compare it to what happens to a german plane, and you'll see that there' s actual bias in this game.

Is he gonna rise from the dead on the third day?
