Preferably PvE ideas given that we didn't have enough people attend for PvP.

How to make webms longer than this with better quality than this? Is it magic?

>>181688878
Well you can start by lowering the resolution for one

Hello, I have a question
I love combat sims, but never tried DCS before. I see a warning in the OP to not buy newer modules from steam because they don't work in stand-alone.

Is DCS World not standalone? Or do you mean the older version which used to just be called 'DCS: A10, Black Shark, etc'?

Also, how is it? I love ridiculously pointless complex flight sims, but even I would have to start with the F-5E, and that's 30 bucks. Worth the price?

>>181688997
Shit I forgot about that

>>181689052

It's just DCS: World
Why people use stand-alone is to get stuff faster. for example new module releases, and it takes loads loads of time to get on steam. And hours counting is just cancer for me.

less combined arms
much more tank simulation
still there's some combined arms and strategy
much cheaper
much better graphics (SB's engine is horribly outdated and overpriced at this point)
100% realistic and interactive interiors
mega-immersive, especially when you are getting shot
If you wanna tank and feel like you're in a tank this is the way to go, if you wanna role-play combined arms SB is the way to go but it has mostly generic interiors.
biggest fucking gripe is no multiplayer unlike SB

This, an F16 module will be nothing without being able to customize your DTC, being able to see the designated radius of the enemy anti-air on your HSD, being able to program the weapons, etc. It's like making a Gripen module without data-link.

Flying the Gazelle has killed my love for the Ka-50, Yeah it's fun slinging missiles at 8km and wiping out a whole column but the Gazelle with it's visibility, better optics, RWR and agility just is so much more fun.

Not to mention how you can be a serious threat to low flying aircraft rather than some slow target like most helicopters.
I wish all the loadouts were on one aircraft so you could switch loadouts at a FARP or something instead of having to jump into a totally new helicopter.

As for the FM, yes it needs a bit of work still and there are some bugs (as every module has) but it's nowhere near as bad as some people whine about it.
Shit like comparing how it flies to the Huey. uh excuse me? The Huey is a fucking beast with two large and incredibly efficient rotors and a stabilizer bar on top. It's going to fly completely different to a tri-rotor light helicopter with a Fenestron tail.

And then you get the guys who have flown a Robinson or compare it to other light civilian helicopters and point out that it doesn't fly like them.
Yeah of course it won't, they don't have the sophisticated stabilization system and a flight director.
It's like moaning the Mirage flies on rails compared to a MiG-21, yeah no shit it has FBW.

I think there are some issues with the general stability of the aircraft, but all the people whining that it flies 'unlike' a helicopter are full of shit.

Sorry, I don't know anything about panels, I just find it very hard to understand how can it cost this much.
I think most people who have control panels makes it themselves, and compared to prices in links, it's waaay cheapier to DIY(Do it yourself)
They have dedicated subforum for it

3 minutes if using the full power (810W), but my PC only has a 650W PSU so I guess like 4 minutes at that level. Otherwise, like 6+ hours on idle. Either way it's more than enough time to get my PC shut down safely.

There are tutorials and missions for the planes in the free version. Actually, I'm not sure if there are missions or not for the TF-51d, but there are tutorials for it. As for not having a full set up, you need at least some type of joystick, preferably with some kind of little throttle lever if its a cheap one. It's really not worth it with keyboard and mouse only

So, how often and in what circonstances should you use the rudder ? I feel like every time i use it, i just throw my plane off balance.

File: Turn_and_slip.jpg (7KB, 396x402px) Image search: [Google]

7KB, 396x402px

>>181826873
Rudder is used to keep the plane flying straight (relative to the oncoming slipstream).

Slipping occur when rolling into a turn, and may even happen during the turn as well.
Single engine (powerful) prop planes will sideslip when the plane is flown outside trimmed setting as well.

Instrument is the ball, if the ball is outside the center, you're slipping or sliding. Step into the direction the ball is at.

Also the main rolling device used at high AoA for swept wing aircraft.

>>181828590
Thanks for the explication. I've looked some videos too. I've just got my rudder pedals and the movement is counter-intuitive at best right now because i never used them before.

It will probably take some time until i'm used to it.

>>181829049
It'll always be counter intuitive, you're missing the side wise G forces that makes this much more easier.

Vietnam ops preferably.

I don't know how to make DCS missions but if I could I would do something like this:

A large strike package of AI B-52s and AI F-4s (both SEAD and fighter-sweep) take off from the south air base and roll into a target zone as per the best DCS can approximate USAF doctrine ( SEAD first, then fighters and bombers.

A flight of MiG-21s (us) needs to intercept and prevent destruction of ground targets/shoot down USAF planes. There would be ground radar/SAM support akin to what North Vietnam had. It would be cool if we didn't know the exact location of the intended strike but had to receive updates from a GCI/ground radars and then had to make a likely guess or favorable merge. You could also throw in some MiG-15s to approximate the 17s if somebody didn't own the MiG-21.

You could also throw in some USAF/South Vietnamese F-5s for human players on blue, just to make the air-combat interesting.

CAS? A-10C
A2A? Mirage or MiG-21/F-5E (they are older generation aircraft and struggle against FC3 aircraft.

It's come a long way, tanks feel pretty good to use, weapons feel nice and there's plenty of variety of vehicles to choose from, some better than others. You can even command around units and take a somewhat commander role.
It's no Steel Armor/Beasts but it's pretty solid. Unfortunately there is basically no damage modelling outside of a basic HP system.

The main problem is the AI, currently in DCS the AI can see through trees and they provide no cover.
This is changed in 2.1/Normandy (which is a big thing foir CA and Helicopters alike) in that trees are collidable and block LOS.
and of course in current Caucasus, the terrain is awful and either very flat or very jagged, another thing which is changing in 2.5 with the new Caucasus terrain.

It's fun to mess around in currently though, just don't expect a heavy tank sim experience.
I picked it up dirt cheap so no regrets here.

>>181869107
I think it's a different kind of FLIR to what's on current aircraft, has a more realistic blur and in some cases vehicles look (subjectively) better through it. More importantly it completely eats your frame rate.

I know it, heavily make-shift and uses same optics as the T-62 and has no interior (If you try to go to the interior it will crash)
If I'm not mistaken the same modder also made a mod with turrets flying off vehicles.

Hi,
>>181689619 here again.

I got both but I didn't get Flaming Cliffs for DCS world while it was on sale. Apparently it's necessary for multiplayer or something. Should I still get it?

It's necessary if you're slavaboo
It gives you F-15C/A-10A/Su-27/Su-33/MiG-29A/MiG-29S/Su-25
