    Required aircraft/maps etc

    in DCS Series

    Thanks. I have stripped out my installation and have plenty of space for the Syria map along with Caucusus. I'm running a 465gb ssd for DCS currently and maps take up a lot of space but at some point I will enlarge it to at least a 2TB.

    Turns out I already have the C130J mod ready to go so that's a bonus.

    Ah, I meant Blackhawk, not Apache. So there is no need to add the Blackhawk, A4 or Bronco unless I want to fly them elsewhere but I will need to download the Herky mod and purchase the Syria map if I want to join you fellows. Is there a link to the Herky?

    @Sid - don't know if you have watched the DCS 2024 and beyond video but the corsair and hellcat plus carriers and Japanese planes are coming....at some point

     

    I have looked and it does look good. My interest now though is very much going to be something away from WW2, hence 'Cold War' and 'Vietnam' eras in DCS albeit on non relevant maps. At the moment the map situation isn't a problem for me but a dedicated Korea sim with Corsairs, early jets and potentially Bearcats, Tigercats, A26 Invaders, Sea Fury, Skyraider is what would do it for me. A DCS Skyraider and a Vietnam map would also definitely float my boat.

    I wouldn't like to see it go yet however I don't think my personal circumstances would justify keeping it...it's the availability of GBS as an occasional drop in for me that works. The thing for me with GBS, apart from the time I currently don't have, is that the WW2 planeset and maps being produced by the Devs are repetitive. Apart from the Waco I have seen nothing in the roadmap that interests me hence the reason I fly DCS more - I have only bought the Waco in the past months whereas I used to buy pretty much everything. The I-153 and the Karelia map has some interest for me but I don't think there will be enough Dogz to provide the numbers to give it a good go.  

    Until 'Korea' comes along and after that Jason's 'Pacific' scenario GBS is an option to choose other than DCS. When these new ones come along I think interest will return and this would be the time to swap GBS out.

    Thanks Gents, it truly was a nasty uncomfortable experience. It's fair to say that today, Sunday, I feel much better. Fever has all but gone and the pain below has eased greatly so I will continue paracetamol 'til tomorrow I think and the antibiotics 'til the end of the week - no way I want this bugger coming back!!

    Turns out it isn't the dreaded lurgy I have....

    I had an absolute mare of a week, Monday onwards. I absolutely hate the hot weather so thinking it was heat stroke/hot weather related I went with the headaches and tiredness until it became painful to pee. Having next to no sleep Thursday night because of the willy pain and the need to pee, I have never been so uncomfortable before in my life, the heat wrapping my already hot (not that way Painless) body so I found it hard to cool down. I got an appointment cancellation at the Docs Friday morning. Doc said it is urinary infection hence the pain and fever. Apparently these don't occur in men very often, you are allowed one (cheers I thought) then any more will need more thorough investigation. Antibiotics and up to 8 x 500mg paracetamol a day.

    It's basically laid me out. I drink water, I need to pee, it hurts. I have fans going etc. So, hopefully the antibiotics will kick in very soon and this shite hot weather will just feck off.....it it rains I will be out there skinny dipping in the puddles.....

    Thought I'd share it with you.

    A collection of skins for the DCS Harrier II/AV8B for your delectation if you desire. Unzip to where you have your liveries, they are in the correctly named aircraft folder. There are British, Italian and Spanish Navy.

    Bombing from 30,000ft blind

    I had a look at the GBUs on the mirage....same system. I can acquire the target visually and lock it in or lock in the coordinates like you did but I need to look at how to do that as I haven't touched the nav system yet. This could be much fun....
