[size=150]24 May 2013 Update
[/size]
Earlier this week we released a further update to DCS version 1.2.4, that you can read about here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?...26&postcount=6

Before moving on to DCS version 1.2.5, we plan on one more update to 1.2.4 with a focus on resolving bugs that are having the biggest impact on gameplay. Chizh and I (with tester input) have scoured the bugs and problems sub-forums and created a list of the most common complaints / bug reports. Our goal is to wrap up 1.2.4 in such a way that we have a very solid foundation for 1.2.5. Once I have a change log, I hope to post it prior to version release.

A few weeks ago I mentioned new information regarding the Nevada map and the development of EDGE technology. Fear not, I have not forgotten! Much of this work is being done in our Minsk office and I am waiting to receive images and information from them to use in my update. Unfortunately, I have not had access to new terrain builds in over a year (I have not been holding out on you all!).

An internal topic this week was how we can improve our communications via our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/eagle.dynamics We will now being doing much more regular posts, more images, weekly "best of" community screen shots, more general military aviation news, and break up the large update text blocks with smaller posts such that news is not missed of products releases and software updates. If you have other ideas on how you think we can improve our Facebook page, we would love to hear from you.

As many of you have learned, the next project from the very talented Belsimtek team (developers of DCS: UH-1H Huey) is the Mi-8MTV-2. The team is already making rapid progress and they gave me permission to provide a few new, work-in-progress images.

This past week saw the release of yet another update to DCS version 1.2.4. The advent of the auto-updater has now allowed us to release much more frequent, smaller patches to main versions (i.e. 1.2.2... 1.2.3... 1.2.4). We hope that you appreciate this as much as we do and not have to wait long period between updates. You can read about the most recent DCS version 1.2.4 update here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?...95&postcount=7

Over the past week, our team has primarily been focused on bug fixes with a focus on network play, artificial intelligence (AI), avionics, and air defense systems. Next week we will decide to push latest fixes to a new 1.2.4 update or wait for the move to 1.2.5.

In the meantime, our artist have been busy updating some of the outdated 3D models. For instance, I've attached images of the improved 3D models for several Russian-made air-to-air missiles that will be included with the DCS version 1.2.5 release.

Have a great weekend,

ATC Improvements

We acknowledge that the air traffic control environment needs improvement. One near-term effort to address this is a number of improvements to the ATC and takeoff and landing procedures. We plan to release these in DCS version 1.2.5.

- Establish orbit zones with fixed positions several km from the end of the runway.
- We have increased the landing rates.
- Aircraft taking off will now have a higher priority than landing aircraft.
- Out of fuel and damaged landing aircraft will have the highest priority.

Further ATC improvements will continue.

Work On New Rendering Technology Continues

The new Image Generator (IG) technology is currently in development and will be introduced to DCS World when it is ready. Elements of the new IG include:
- More detailed terrain.
- Better graphical effects
- Dedicated server
- DirectX 11 support
- Skeleton animation for infantry.

Next Stop... DCS Version 1.2.5

After the release of DCS version 1.2.4, we released multiple updates using our automatic updater. We are now moving towards the next major update, version 1.2.5. Our primary focus will be on improving game performance, addressing game play issues, and setting the stage for further modules.

Key features planned for version 1.2.5 include:

DCS World
Improvements to the ATC system.
New Tu-22M3 model. Images attached.
Further improvements to game stability.
Correcting module installation issues.
Resource manager: Corrected logistic links.
Resource manager: The value, speed and periodicity have been adjusted. Default supply speed is now 60 km/h.
Anti-radiation missiles: Added proximity fuses and adjusted accuracy.
Visual detection of a target for AI units will now also be a function of time. The time of detection depends on target distance, aspect angle, and the presence of already detected targets nearby.
When a target is no longer visible, the AI aircraft will use the target’s last known position and velocity to search for it.
Added "STOP TRANSMISSION" trigger action.
AI behavior option "DISPERCE UNDER FIRE" now has new parameter - dispersion delay.
Added new AI behavior option - "RTB ON OUT OF AMMO".
Added more tooltips to the Mission Editor.
Message filter for Lock On aircraft: RShift+\.
Added several new constants (AI) and functions (trigger, Controller) in the Simulator Scripting Engine (SSE).
Detection of radars by RWR has been reworked to make player and AI systems equal.
The parking spaces for Anapa and Krymsk airbases have been corrected.
Su-25T: The gun funnel has been adjusted.
Added new Su-27 skins.
Several factors governing air to air missiles have been adjusted.
Updated airbase charts from http://www.10thGunfighters.de and http://www.ariescon.com
Fixed input deadlock.
M256 HEAT ballistics corrected.
Improved fire and smoke of aircraft fragments.
Improved material of flares.
Adjusted logbook data accounting. Especially in complex cases with multiple changes of aircrafts in one sortie.
Mission Editor: Added briefing picture dialog. If file contain inappropriate symbols in the name, GUI Error appears.
The broken input after exporting to HTML is fixed.

DCS: UH-1H Huey
Tuned the "mast bumping" effect. The rotor is now very hard to break off while on the ground.
The UH-1H manuals and readme have been updated.
Fixed UH-1H training files.
Sound samples path has been updated.

Lock On: Flaming Cliffs 3
Added advanced Flight Model (AFM) for the A-10A.
Su-25: Bombs falling short when using CCRP has been fixed.
Su-25: Turning ON the laser rangefinder no longer causes the targeting cross to jump outside the gunsight.
F-15: Crash or freeze in the F-15C when on the ramp when changing HUD Modes are fixed.
F-15: Negative airspeed values should now correctly display on the HUD airspeed tape.
The FC3 installation check has been fixed.
“Betty” voice warnings now use native language.
The cockpit view system has been adjusted. Looking behind the aircraft will no longer give an impossible view angle.
Remaining issues for some FC3 aircraft like CCRP, EOS, and F-15C landing issue will be addressed. Right now our staff is quite overloaded with other, higher priority items.
Performance of air-to-air missiles continues to be adjusted. The primary area we will now be tuning is the counter measure performance against air to air missiles.

DCS: Black Shark 2
Ka-50 EKRAN refactoring.

DCS: Combined Arms
Adjusted the machine gun sights for several vehicles.
Updated and New Units


The Next Eagle Dynamics DCS Modules

Later this year, we will offer:
A-10A: DCS Flaming Cliffs
Su-25: DCS Flaming Cliffs
F-15C: DCS Flaming Cliffs
Su-27: DCS Flaming Cliffs

These modules will feature:
1- Detailed 3D model (high polygon / high res textures)
2- 6 DOF cockpit
3- Advanced Flight Model (AFM)
4- Same level of cockpit system detail as the Lock On: Flaming Cliffs aircraft

We plan to release each at $19.99 USD.

We are releasing these modules for the following reasons:
1- It allows users access to these aircraft that do not own, or want to own, Lock On.
2- It allows users to buy just the aircraft they are interested in, without having to purchase the full Flaming Cliffs product.
3- It allows us to make these aircraft available to a much larger audience on Steam, Origin, GameFly and other digital retailers.

We have not yet come to a decision regarding the availability of the new advanced flight models to the FC3 aircraft. While there is discussion of making this available as an FC3 upgrade at a lower cost than the full module, I can say with confidence that they will not be made available for free given the large time and financial investment. When a final decision is made we will make an announcement.

Other FC3 aircraft will be improved as well (like the Su-27, Su-25, F-15C and A-10A). When they are further along, we will discuss them.

We will develop a balance of lighter "DCS Flaming Cliffs" modules with more detailed/realistic "DCS" modules. The "DCS Flaming Cliffs" modules allow us to develop the more detailed "DCS" titles in a more iterative way. As such, we will continue to develop detailed simulation like A-10C.
[size=150]The next such "DCS" title will be F/A-18C.[/size]


Improved Visual Effects

We understand that some of the visual effects (particularly for weapons like cluster bombs) are causing a significant performance reduction for some. We are now in the process of adjusting the effects to work in the new Image Generator (IG) that we believe will alleviate this issue.

Speaking of new effects, we are working on new/improved wing tip vortices. I've attached a work in progress image.

Molto ma molto bene, e pensare che credevo facessero prima un F15C dato che avrebbero avuto tanta roba già pronta da FC3.

[size=150]5 July 2013 - DCS News Update[/size]

Work on testing and debugging of DCS ver. 1.2.5 continues. Depending on how debugging goes, we hope to release 1.2.5 sometime in July 2013.

Our efforts to update some of the older models continues. Given the number of units in DCS, and that there are many legacy models (some dating all the way back to the original Lock On), this is a long and ongoing process. One new model that we have heard many of you asking about is the Su-33. I've attached some very early work-in-progress renders of the new Su-33 model. We have no release ETA for this yet.

[size=150]19 July 2013 - DCS News Update[/size]

For today's news update, I've gone pretty heavy on the pretty pictures. I've attached new images of:

1- DCS: Fw 190D-9 that includes updated cockpit art.

2- New images of the Su-33.

3- Textured images of the new MQ-9 "Reaper" model.

4- Updated images of the new Tu-22M3 "Backfire" along with a new Kh-22 model.

5- New images of the Nevada map. This past week we started rebuilding the Nevada map with the new map tools, but it is still early and very rough... a lot of tuning and tweaking to still be done. Thankfully, we are nearing the end of this long journey and it is on track to be released later this year (seriously). I'm sure many of you have lots of questions about the map and the technology behind it, but I'm afraid I have no answers for you at this time. I have no direct contact with the map team and no access to the map build. However, as the map nears release, I'm sure I will have more information to pass along.

The past week our team and the testers have continued debugging 1.2.5. and today we built the release build for final testing. If it passes testing, it should be released in the coming days. Given that it is so close, I have posted the updated change log for 1.2.5 below:
