This guy has made a Great Video showing and demonstrating the numerous updates to the latest DCS Open Beta Patch.

 
Some remarkable advances in this sim....... really must try and make the time to get into it!
 
This is an awesome video patrick. Thanks for the link. I have subscribed to the channel as these update preview videos are a great idea.

Click to expand...

Steep learning curve if you are not coming from a hardcore combat sim. I bought a new cpu as I waited for one particular module to be released, in the meantime flying a few other favorites like the Hornet and F-5, but had to re-learn many things with the A-10C from a long break. The UH-1 keeps my rotary skills sharp and many are waiting for the next big one...the Viper. Nice to have a change of flavor, so I keep P3D updated as well. The "flying" immersion in DCS is completely different using TrackIR for now and feels about right. Most of the modules have training missions/tutorials to help you along.
 
Wake and jet blast, need this in P3D as well. Tanking last night in the Cat after not playing for a few weeks and I'm all over the place!
 
This sim is legit. As I've been saying for a while now. It's no.1 for flight Dynamics. This video is incredible.
 
Amazing and awesome! Although....I already suck at tanking, and this is not going to help....:biggrin-new:

Downloaded Big Update Last Evening

It usually doesn't take much more than a couple minutes for me to download DCS updates. Last evening it took a couple hours! Anyone having similar problems or is it just me (or is there some other explanation)? Thanks.

P.S. I see over on DCS Forums that download is over 5 gigs due to "Repackaged texture files for Caucasu".

P.P.S. I was just doing some target practice on the new "C" map and noticed dynamic new stuff (trains, cars). The train is a fun target for rockets off the F/A-18.
 
Last edited:
I believe that's because they reverted back to the old (better looking) trees and vegetation. They originally removed them due to VR issues, but have since solved those, and put them back in. So the terrain should look much better again. The "New" trees looked like garbage...

Added support of DCS NS 430 Navigation System modules for C-101CC and C-101EB by AvioDev.

Introduced Historical mode filter in the ME.
The historical mode is designed to facilitate the creation of historical mission scenarios. If the author of the mission wants to use equipment only for a given year, he can click on the small button with a clock piktogramm in the bottom line of the Mission Editor, after which all lists of equipment and aircraft are filtered out for a given year. The lists will show only those aircraft or equipment that were in service with the selected country in a given year. This mode can be turned on and off in the process of creating a mission if you need to select objects outside a given year.
