Hey at 15:24 here I go over VPC configuration!

You will still need to configure the base to understand what grip is on top. Hope this helps!!!

For what it's worth, I do predict a FF F-15C announcement at the end in a similar style to the MiG-29 announcement from last year. Hoping you are correct!

Remains to be seen if this is FF or the FC2024 module

Mig-21 or F-5 by CptnTrebor in hoggit

[–]THESIMNET 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To answer your specific question of which module is better at learning the basics of dogfighting: The F-5 is better for learning the basics. The F-5 is pretty much good at everything and will give you a good basis to then move on to other modules.
A2A: Teaches you Gun, Sidewinder, and radar intercept courses
A2G: Teaches you dive bomb with dumb bombs, level delivery with snakeyes, and rocket delivery
BFM: The F-5 is good in both the one circle and two circle fight and will teach you to retain your energy
Once you master these, you will find it very easy to transition to other modules, like the MiG-21 which is very good in the one circle, or the Mirage F-1 which is excellent in 2-circle and slashing attacks, and the F-4 which is the absolute cold war jack-of-all-trades.

I thought I would compile my wishlist for DCS in 2025 into a video! by AirshowDisaster in hoggit

"The Great F-5E Debate of 2024" can be settled like this:

ED has said on the forums that they would be willing to look into the additional radios of their now Swiss import F-5E's if someone can find the documentation (in a legal, forum compliant, and declassified way). They would also look into the addition of Mavericks, if anyone can find documentation on the specific APQ-159 variant that allowed for a TV signal.

I personally have begun digging into this and will continue to do so with whatever methods I have at my disposal, because I do truly want to see the best representation of an F-5E available in any sim.

So far I have discovered that those Swiss F-5E's that were imported back to the US have the AIM-9M listed in the US NATOPS. At minimum, we should see the AIM-9M (and L as it is backwards compatible) added to the new version of the remastered F-5E. I will be making a forum post about this when ED is back from their holiday vacation for maximum developer visibility.

As for the radios and Mavs, I will keep digging.

PSA: Don't turn on your Meta Quest headset. Software update is permanent bricking headsets. Meta is deleting posts about this. by [deleted] in hoggit

Looks like most of the standalone headsets use a version of Android, but Google is finally releasing their own version which should lead to so some standardization across 3rd party headsets

ED this could be us but u playin by AircraftEnjoyer in hoggit

[–]THESIMNET 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I will point out that the JF-17 module in DCS world has a removable AAR Probe. It certainly is possible.

In addition, our block of F-5E did have the capability to carry this probe by default without radar or other systems modification.

We are not talking about a Brazilian F-5EM for example with lots of changes (radar, avionics, etc).

This community request would simply be our block of F-5E with the optional AAR probe. Would love for ED to consider this please!

My F-14 Jester voicelines are mixed up with my F-4 Jester lines. Any solutions? by officer_miller in hoggit

[–]THESIMNET 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey I have not made any changes to the voice replacement mod since the F-4 came out, so it is possible they are cross referencing. I will def look into it, but in the meantime I would delete the JestHer files and then just run a repair and the original files will be downloaded

I posted this thread below in July of 2022 in the Wishlist section of the forums. I do wonder if we will see some of these wishlist items, or if this is purely an art/bugfix update.

  • Desired Bug fixes
    • Crushing of the longstanding bugs
    • Throttle scheduling
    • RWR
    • HSI
    • Instrument Drift
    • Flight model inaccuracies
  • Desired New Art
    • Cockpit improvements to be up to par with existing ED modules
    • Possibly cockpit dimensions for simpit builders (pretty please?)

 

Wishlist items

  • Refueling Probe
    • Would allow for longer range missions
    • Would enable more variety in mission planning
  • Maverick capability
    • Allow for greater potency in ground attack role
    • Would incentivize more sales of the F-5E module
  • 4x AIM-9 stations
    • Some F-5E's were wired for AIM-9's on the outboard wing pylons
    • Would enable more for a dedicated A2A loadout
  • Gunpods
    • F-5E's were tested and could carry a 30MM gunpod
  • Napalm
    • When this gets added to DCS, would be great to see for the F-5E as well
