Basic engine updates are pretty nice but is that just gonna make it look pretty or is that going to mean poo poo crashes less when someone drops a certain kind of bomb?

So aside from Rotary Wing Jesus hating me, what would cause an apache to to a sudden uncommanded barrel roll? I was trying to orbit around a house to get a better angle to shoot something, my flight vector was towards my right rear and I was pushing the pedal hard to the left to yaw and then all of a sudden I did a roll. I was able to get enough control to avoid a second roll, but I drat near poo poo myself. Has that ever happened to anyone else or was that a weird server lag thing?

Bedurndurn posted:So aside from Rotary Wing Jesus hating me, what would cause an apache to to a sudden uncommanded barrel roll? This reminds me of the As350 module I got for Xplane 11. It’ll shoot up into the air when I very gently raise the collective, and should that fail to kill me, if I take my eyes off the screen for a second I’ll look up and find the helicopter in a barrel roll diving to the ground.

So apparently there are blizzard warnings in Hell, because it looks like we'll be able to start testing multi-threading support in DCS today: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/320618-dcs-multithreading-faq/

There is movement in the DCS thread, time to fire up the DCS Updater. I'm not quite ready to commit to starting the actual DCS.exe.

Now I'm actually less scared of the game in general, I've gone back and started playing with the frogfoot, it actually owns. Also the update has changed the ka50 shkval to full colour 1080p, which is nice lol

Funny to see all the simps on Hoggit cheerleading and thanking ED for the MT update, the same people who were viciously hostile to anyone who said the game runs like poo poo and needs MT.

Same. I am relearning my F-18. I can still cold start, and carrier take-off and recover. But uh, I had to fiddle around with the electronics and realized yeah: I cannot effectively deploy weapons (mostly the various a2g) at this current time. Like, I would be flying with Chuck’s Guide open. Which isn’t very different than normal except I totally forget just about everything so I wouldn’t even be paying attention to where I am flying.

I just started learning the F-18 for the first time, coming from the A-10C. Other than Chuck's guide (which I need to read in more detail), any good references you can recommend?

Honestly Chuck’s Guide, the official manual (it will go into a lot more detail about sensors and electronics) and just watch videos. The training modules aren’t bad. Not good. Not terrible. They can help for the initial learning.

Also honestly it isn’t a terribly hard plane to learn. You will probably only ever use 4-5 different weapons load-outs for 90% of the time, and if you know the A-10 then you know basically all the A2G weapons the Hornet would usually carry. What you have to get used to is the very sluggish engine throttle response, which make carrier recovery tricky, but the maneuverability and stall characteristics are fantastic. Super easy to “fly”.

Chubby Henparty posted:This week I am trying to put the skyhawk into the refueling basket. Its like that virtual ball and cup game from Star Trek except I can't put one goddamn ball into the cup I've had some amazingly bad luck doing A2A refuelling. Fuel plane just kept on spontaneously bursting into flame.  First plane I successfully refueled was the harrier and it took hours of practice. Then I got the hang of it and tried to do the F14 and had to spend even more time relearning because the F14 is way more powerful and difficult to fill. Also the full time is way longer because it's a big thirsty bitch. I think total fuel carried weighs more than the whole harrier. I haven't tried it since I've gone to VR yet. Might be easier now. Also bought the mirage F1 because I cannot help myself despite having bought and almost never flown the 2000. I own way too many planes I haven't flown. I think the only one I keep coming back to is the mig 21.

Moving to a high end joystick base (warthog to virpil in my case) made refueling a lot easier. I also do VR.
