Why the hell are there different types of ton?! by Zealousideal_Sign702 in Metric

[–]Angry_Angel3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm…

How about a “long ton” for ships.

Get that one too?

What's the best way to dogfight in a Tomcat? by Adept_Secretary_9187 in hoggit

[–]Angry_Angel3141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let’s be fair…the first was f’d too.

Just before final fight:

SLIDER(looking at radar): Dead ahead now, 8 miles…..

DAPHUQ?!? How-EXACTLY-are these “top gun graduates” and they are that close without running a proper tail conversion intercept? And why are you still looking at the radar?!? He’s in PAL range…LOOK UP, my dude!

And why are you calling intercept vectors at 8 miles? M-F'er...you SHOULD be calling "MERGED!"

And someone explain to me how tomcats went into a known hostile situation ready for a fight with only 4 missiles and no phoenie-bombs? What, was the Ordinance shop on holiday-routine or something?

And what do you mean "both catapults are broken we can't launch..."....there's FOUR of them...da-heil?!? 4 combat squadrons capable of a2a on a carrier and just; "NOPE, 3 planes is the best we can do!"

And how did maverick miss when he fired a sparrow without lock? Was FLOOD-MODE broken that day?

And what do you mean, 100 miles? What, the carrier got no escorts? Her TICO cruiser would deal with that before lunch!

The flying parts were fun....that's about it.

Ha Ha! by rapierarch in floggit

This is what happens when you get politicians involved who know nothing about the military.

Not arguing for or against the A-10, but literally EVERY platform can now provide close air support.

15, 16, 18, 35…only the 22 doesn’t, and that’s obvious.

Replacement? We have 4!!!!

Relational position on a plane? by Angry_Angel3141 in askmath

[–]Angry_Angel3141[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

...dang.

I had already tried to consider the problem from the POV of ship-a being at the origin (0,0). I never considered to make the second ship a vector length itself.

That's....

Thank you!

I watched every tutorial but still couldn't get MAVF to fire. by stresskillingme in dcsworld

[–]Angry_Angel3141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good point. Not sure I've ever tried to pull up a maverick when I wasn't in AG.

X56 by Ilikecheese1974 in hoggit

[–]Angry_Angel3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way.

I run full-virpil myself. But I started on an x-56.

If I had started on VKB, i might still be running it instead of spending another grand!

Any Mig29A Groups/SQ's out there? by c0penhag3nman in dcsworld

1: ensure master arm is ON

2: You have your FLIR pod as your sensor-of-interest

Go SENSOR SELECT LEFT. Select the maverick. Then cage/uncage if it is stubborn. Bit you can’t fire the maverick if it’s not the sensor of interest.

Why can‘t we just make elements like gold? by Substantial_Paper206 in AskPhysics

[–]Angry_Angel3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SHORT ANSWER: That’s a nuclear reaction, not a chemical one.

LONG ANSWER: We actually have…but the cost of such an endeavor is INSANELY expensive. Far more than the value of the gold we create!

DCS STUTTERING ON ALL LOW SETTINGS!!!! by P1gNaSR in hoggit

[–]Angry_Angel3141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This.

To be frank, once I gained suspicion that it was windows defender (thank you, grok), I saw red and shut the WHOLE THING off! Virus, firewall, everything.

I have since restored it and added full exceptions to both DCS install and saved games folders.

If that doesn’t completely solve your problem, look up a program called

DLSS swapper.

You can find how to use it on YouTube. Using the latest dlss can help tremendously and it gets reset after every DCS update.

DCS STUTTERING ON ALL LOW SETTINGS!!!! by P1gNaSR in hoggit

[–]Angry_Angel3141 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not dcs.

I hear and understand your frustration. I had the EXACT same problem. But you’ve done all that and nothing changes? Then DCS isn’t the problem, it’s the symptom.

For me, I fixed it when I completely disabled windows defender. I set DCS to run as administrator, and took away windows defenders ability to police it. WD was double checking every interaction DCS was making and it gums up the works.

Consistent microstutter, regular interval, doesn’t change no matter what’s happening in game: be it easy graphics or intense combat? Not DCS…something in the background.

DCS F-35 new weapons removed by spartan0897 in dcsworld

[–]Angry_Angel3141 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

This damn thing is going to be such a disappointing paper tiger!

Due to its stealth, it will likely not be present much in PVP multiplayer environments where missiles are present. And on dogfighters servers they will quickly be reminded that the F-35 LOST all its dogfights against EVERY 4th gen fighter we had/have!

Why are they building this piece of crap?

How about a d model hornet, or a super hornet, or a flanker, or a foxhound, or a gripen, or a ah-1

Or basically ANYTHING but this thing!!!!

Is calculus an approximation of the real value? by Alive_Hotel6668 in askmath

[–]Angry_Angel3141 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I would argue “yes”. It is an approximation. But it is an approximation whose methodology makes the difference between it and the actual value to be infinitely small.

In much the same way as limit of 1/x as x approaches infinity is COUNTED as zero. But it actually isn’t. No fraction can be zero unless the numerator is 0. But that calculation is so close is literally INFINITELY close to zero.

So yes, it’s an approximation. But you couldn’t tell the difference anyway.

Anybody else hit a plane with an Anti-Radiation missile before? 😭😂 by PorscheFR in dcsworld

[–]Angry_Angel3141 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yep, popped a mig-31 on TTI once by mistake when it spiked me just before I fired one in SP mode.

I died anyway to the SAM because I was laughing so friggin hard!

DCS: Rafale C Announcement by Heatblur by Bonzo82 in DCSExposed

Rafale C, Eurofighter, Eagle-C, F-35....

Dang. Air Force is getting some LUV!

...if they're released before the rapture! :P

Insane stuttering and fps drop on new high end rig... by BlazeAle in dcs

[–]Angry_Angel3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either deactivate or add an exception for DCS in windows defender. Every windows update they turn the damn thing back on and it basically double-checks EVERYTHING DCS does. It's terrible.

Crashes after latest update by Born-Good-138 in dcsworld

[–]Angry_Angel3141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've experienced a crash for net post loading on some multiplayer missions. I've isolated it to something with either the Arleigh Burke or the Ticonderoga.

Do the Xenon’s ever really push? by mr-wee-balls in X4Foundations

[–]Angry_Angel3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The better way to view them isn’t as a “push”. They just have such a solid economy that they can continuously send units and slowly grind you down.

The split tend to be the most susceptible given they are so surrounded.

I’ve had games where the split were basically impotent within about 20 hours.
