DCS World 2.1.1 Update Now Available

Our first big update to DCS World 2.1 is now available. You can either update your DCS World 2 installation using the automatic updater, or you can download DCS World 2.1 from DCS site

Please note that either the DCS: NEVADA Test and Training Range Map or the Normandy 1944 Map are required.

Important additions to version 2.1.1 include:

New Gamma Slider to adjust brightness and contrast

New units for the World War II Assets Pack like Flak units

B-17 bomber equipped with defensive fire

Addition of Deferred Lighting and Physics Based Rendering (PBR)

War damage zone setting is now supported on Nevada map

Many fixes and updates to several DCS World modules

You can read a more complete list of version 2.1.1 changes in the dedicated thread on the DCS forum.

Spitfire LF Mk.IX: Epsom Campaign

The first campaign for the new Normandy 1944 Map has entered testing this week, and we hope for it to be available for sale in the near future. This will be a Spitfire campaign and consist of 12 missions that focus on the Epsom campaign following the D-Day landings in June 1944. The missions consist of a combination of armed reconnaissance, intercepts, and directed ground attacks.

For this campaign, we teamed up with the greatly respected “Bunyap”, who has created an amazing level of detail and content for the briefings and historical background. All missions and flights in the campaign are based on actual missions down to the squadrons, targets, locations, times, weather, flak locations, etc. We believe this will be the most historically accurate portrayal of World War II air combat in a PC flight simulation.

News of Su-33 for DCS World

Currently in the Eagle Dynamics update hangar is our Su-33 for DCS World / Flaming Cliffs 3. This carrier-borne aircraft is in the final stages of receiving a big, FREE update that includes much improved flight dynamics and the addition of several new systems. This will bring our Su-33 much more aligned with its real-world counterpart.

Features of this upcoming Su-33 update include:

• More detailed and accurate simulation of the wing control surfaces that include the leading and trailing edge flaps and the differential ailerons. In addition to the conventional differential stabilizers, canard behavior has also been improved for more realistic behavior. The Flight Control System (FCS) will automatically reconfigure itself depending on the flight mode.
  
• The adaptations that make the Su-33 aircraft-capable have been updated and improved to include the wing-fold mechanism, reinforced landing gear struts, and the inclusion of high-gain nose wheel steering for use on crowded carrier decks.
  
• The physical mechanisms by which the arrestor hook engages the aircraft carrier arrestor wire has been greatly improved. Correct physics have been applied to the arrestor wire and its’ interaction with the aircraft.
  
• The engines now have a “special mode” that adds up to 12,800 kg of thrust (instead of the normal 12,500 kg of thrust). This mode also includes realistic operating time restrictions.
  
• A new FCS mode used when aerial refueling has also been implemented. When in this mode and the control stick is released, the aircraft will automatically maintain level flight. This FCS mode allows fine-control and thus making it easier to make contact with the tanker within a pitch range of plus or minus 5 degrees and of a roll angle of plus or minus 10 degrees.
  
• The Auto-Thrust Control (ATC) is used for automatic speed holding and can be fine-tuned with a set speed switch. This can be useful with landing on the carrier.
  
• The automatic collision avoidance system (“Uvod” mode) is now included and allows safe nap-of-the-earth flying.
  

DCS World 1.5.7 Update

This week we have released a new update to Open Beta DCS World 1.5, with the primary new feature being the support for the DCS: World War II Assets Pack.

Although primarily developed for the DCS: Normandy 1944 Map, these World War II period units work just as well in the Caucasus map. We hope this provides you another option for creating engaging World War II themed missions.

Curiosita'!a prescindere dal fatto che di quell invertebrato di AM ,interessa poco,quanto nulla,la portarei sara' inclusa nel prossimo update?

Non credo , probabile che la portaerei Kuznetsov 2.0 faccia parte di quel pack dedicato appunto a queste unità navali di cui si parlava anche in altri thread, in sostanza chi non lo acquista si dovrà accontentare , per così dire , di quella attuale di default...

Piuttosto, viene da chiedersi ma la Normandia?? è già da due settimane che non esce niente per questa mappa e stiamo entrando nella terza , magari invece di "trastullarsi" con il Su-33 farebbero meglio a correggere/implementare quello che non va/manca nella mappa e ne hanno a iosa di aspetti su cui lavorare...:cry:

:pilotfly:

Nero! Non toccarmi il Su-33! Era da tempo che ci si augurava un suo aggiornamento!

Per la portaerei, non penso manchi molto. Probabilmente la renderanno disponibile (a pagamento) il giorno in cui rilasceranno il Su-33.

Falco, capisco il tuo particolare interessamento alla nuova mappa, ma i velivoli di FC3 e non solo, sono da molto tempo in fila per essere migliorati uno ad uno. La mappa è "appena uscita"..

DCS 1.5.7.7631.314 Update to Open Beta.

Nessuno mette in discussione quello che affermi , che ci siano velivoli di FC3 o altro in lista d' attesa da tempo è un dato di fatto , lo è anche però quello che riguarda la questione delle priorità perchè, a mio avviso, ci sono aspetti del sim che possono essere ancora rimandati mentre altri invece no proprio perchè vanno a incidere in maniera significativa sulla fruibilità del sim stesso.

Per capirci il rifacimento del modello 3D, ecc.. del Su-33 è una gran bella cosa, molto meno quella di andare in volo con il P-51 o il 109K senza il vetrino del collimatore , senza l' effetto plexiglass, per il primo senza l' effetto disco dell' elica quando sei in cockpit e quant' altro che di fatto "ammazza" l' immersione nella simulazione con tutto ciò che ne consegue , appunto , sulla fruibilità della stessa....

Poi ovviamente ognuno di noi ha le proprie opinioni in merito ma ci sono delle cose che sono oggettive piuttosto che soggettive da qualunque parte le consideri.

Ma le alette canard, non dovrebbero in fase di frenata portarsi a 90 gradi verso il basso, per aumentare l'attrito con l'aria, praticamente come un aereofreno?

Che io sappia, no. Eurofighter e Griphen le muovono verso il basso, mentre Rafale verso l'alto.

Bisogna anche dire che il Su-33 è nato per operazioni navali, quindi considerando che ha una velocità di atterraggio più alta ed un AoA più basso del Rafale, usare le canard per frenare non avrebbe molto senso: ci sono i cavi di arresto

Comunque, quanto sarebbe bello che il sonoro dei velivoli in DCS fosse così realistico!

Dipende da come viene programmato l'FCS.

Issue: client get message 'Server offline' during connect to non-public server

Both beta 1.5.7 and Alpha 2.1.1 has changed query-response system for network traffic encryption keys. Sometimes clients can get message 'Server offline' when server started with unchecked box 'Public server'.

To avoid it, necessary:

- for server: do NOT change server type in the same game session (i.e. to start 'hidden' server always with unchecked box 'Public server')

- for client: always make serverlist refresh before connect

This feature will be fixed as soon as we reach good compromise between user convenience and traffic security.
