Are you guys finally going to use same starforce setup than ED and others 3rd party ?

 

Vodka Squadron, which had quite some bad time with the mig, is very enthousiast about all the mig21 fixes we are seen everyday now :) :) :)

 

We honestly do not know exactly which setup they use, however we lightened up the hardware changes to CPU only.

 

 

What about Steam users? Do we have to do it?

 

Yes

Will I lose my control assignments?

 

No, they have nothing to do with the activation.

Now it's a bit unclear. Is this procedure intended for a beta patch that is due to release today or for a Stable patch for today?

 

 

 

I use only Stable version, if is not patched then do I still need to deactivate etc?

 

 

Also. Is this the only fix for Mig21 that comes with the patch?

 

Thank you Dolphin and Rudel for heads up!

Wait, I'm confused, aren't we already on 1.5.6. My DCS hasn't been updated for about a week or so and I'm already on 1.5.6

 

Its not an update from 1.5.X to another 1.5.X but from 1.5.6.XXXXXX to another.

And how would I go about that if I have the module activated on a PC I can't currently get to, and won't be able to until June?

 

when you get to it, deactivate the mig-21 before you do an update

Does activation count re-fill on a time basis? Or are our products temporary?

Good news because I had to reactivate MiG-21 twice after HW upgrades. Thanks!

What about the Viggen module? Does it use the same SF settings?

It is meant for 1.5.6 openBeta.

 

You will want to check ED's update page before you play the stable version. If there's a post showing an update for it, then proceed with the instructions.

You will need to ask Heatblur about their DRM on the Viggen

 

Can you explain the purpose of making a copy of the Mig 21 binary folder as prompted in the PDF ?

As it was already mentioned, this advice was given in a very short time prior to the patch. Maybe it is a good idea to additionally mention it in the changelogs/weekend news, so more people will notice.

 

I know that M3LLC is not responsible for the changelog/weekend news posts but maybe one could talk to ED to add it, if it was not already read here.

 

thanks

My question is, do I have to repeat the whole process three times: now for OpenBeta (patch would be released this friday), Stable (when patch be released) and Alpha (when patch be released)?

 

 

No.

 

Once you deactivate in any version, wait for the patching. You can still use any other aircraft except MiG-21 until the patch is released.

 

Open Beta will be patched first - you will be able to use MiG-21 very soon.

 

We will try to arrange open Alpha patching as soon as possible.

Power through superb knowledge, training and teamwork.

Did it, but now me deactivation became 0... :huh:

 

If you ever have issue, just delete the LNS registry, and activate again. We are digging deep on the deactivation issues running. Even my key is at 0. :(

 

DCS says I have deactivated the module but now I have a box pop up and it lets me run in "Demo mode". Have I done this correctly?

 

That's a new one, I recommend waiting and see what happen. I believe you'll be ok.

Same thing happened to me, I just clicked exit and the window closed, then reopened, then I clicked exit again and the window closed and DCS opened normally.

AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS

 

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
