A later evolution of the L-39 was the L-39ZA light attack aircraft. The ZA adds two additional weapon pylons and a center pylon to mount a gun pod. The ZA has proved a popular choice for low-intensity conflicts.
The L-39 Albatros is a low-wing, high-performance jet aircraft that doubles as a trainer and light attack aircraft. The Albatros was developed in Czechoslovakia in the 1960s to replace older L-29 jet trainers. Powered by an Ivchenko AI-25TL turbofan engine, the L-39 has a top speed of Mach 0.80, a service ceiling of 11,000 m (36,100 feet), and can pull up to 8 G. Although primarily used as a trainer and light attack aircraft, the L-39 has also become popular with several aerial acrobatics demonstration teams.

Being a trainer aircraft, the L-39C has a tandem cockpit with the student in front and the instructor in the back. The instructor has several controls to mimic system failures to test the student. The L-39C also has two underwing pylons for bombs, rockets and close range air-to-air missiles. For decades, the L-39 was used by nations around the world to train pilots that later went on to fly aircraft like the MiG-29 and Su-27.

Je viens encore de recevoir un update de plus de 300 mo. Pour le moment pas de News sur le sujet...

Sur la branche Open Beta, on est passé de la 1.5.3.50355.19 à la 1.5.3.50487.22.
Petite mise à jour pour régler 2-3 problèmes gênants rencontrés lors des quelques jours où la première itération de la version 1.5.3 était dispo seulement sur la branche open bêta.
Jugée satisfaisante avec ces quelques correctifs supplémentaires, la seconde itération de la 1.5.3 est maintenant déployée sur la branche release, et bien sûr aussi sur la branche open bêta.

L'open bêta est donc passée de la 1.5.2 à la 1.5.3.50355.19 puis à la 1.5.3.50487.22.
La release est passée directement de la 1.5.2 à la 1.5.3.50487.22.

[Le Dan]

Ouaip, mais toujours le même problème d'activation avec le Mig 21 ...

Dan

[Azrayen]

Pas chez moi.

Mais je n'avais pas réactivé lorsque le problème est apparu en 1.5.3.50355.19 (open beta) : hors de question de consommer des activations pour rien (=> ai cliqué sur [quitter] plutôt que de ressaisir mon numéro de série)
Suite à l'install de la 1.5.3.50487.22 DCS ne me demande plus d'activer le MiG.

Si tu avais saisi ton numéro de série, alors je ne sais pas ce que ça donne ; je suggère de regarder sur le topic qui en parle sur les forums ED.

Je n'ai pas encore fait la MàJ sur la branche release.

[Le Dan]

Finement jouée, la carte de la prudence . Moi, j'ai foncé bille en tête dans le "piège", évidemment, et plusieurs fois, encore .

Une petite question : est-ce qu'avant de te demander de réactiver le module tu avais un message te signalant la détection d'un changement de matériel ?

Dan

[Azrayen]

J'ai pas souvenir, non ; pour cette fois là en tt cas.
En revanche, ça pourrait être un pb antérieur ? Avais-tu réglé les soucis rencontrés lors de la "cohabitation" 1.2 / 1.5 / 2.0 avec la licence du MiG ?
Si non, il est sans doute temps de passer par le "ménage" qui était proposé par LN alors.

[Le Dan]

Oui oui, le problème avait été réglé. Je pense que je vais tenter le coup une dernière fois, quitte à perdre encore une activation. Puis je les contacterai pour tenter de négocier quelques retours de points.

Dan

[Fuchs]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Leatherneck Simulations\DCS:MiG-21 BiS]

efface cette clé de registre et réactive ton addon

[Le Dan]

Merci Fuchs, je prends note. Pour l'instant ça fonctionne (encore au prix d'une activation), j'attends la prochaine mise à jour de pied ferme.

Coucou tout le monde

Je sais pas vous mais niveau performance cette update est une catastrophe, énormément de coup de freeze c'est très compliqué quand on s'approche des villes, même toutes les options au minimum ça freeze ! Ils ont vraiment fait de la merde pour cette update, et je suis loin d'être le seul :

[Morpheus]

On se rapproche de plus en plus de DCS 2.0 qui recommande fortement 16 Go de RAM, peut être une piste, pour ma part pas vraiment ou peu de différence en "high" voire en "extrem" pourtant j'ai une config qui date un peu (2011 hors carte graphique).

[Robin Hood]

Ce ne serait pas à cause de la distance de visibilité ? Il me semble avoir lu qu'ils ont augmenté les réglages de visibilité, et que donc ça peut valoir le coup de baisser ce réglage d'un cran pour garder le même impact.

Allez ! A la semaine prochaine...

[Azrayen]

Il devrait sans doute y avoir une partie du changelog pour le 2000 aussi ; on peut estimer que comme d'hab le décalage horaire n'a pas permis de l'inclure dans la première version de l'annonce.

[edit] ah ben oui, tu en as parlé dans la salle dédiée... pas repris ici ? tu boudes ?

[diditopgun]

J'ai fait comme ED (pourquoi j'ai fais ça ??? je ne tourne pas rond !!! ) mais si tu insistes:

Changelog M-2000C pour DCS 1.5.3.53108 OPEN BETA Update 6:

- Added community provided keyboard/joystick bindings
- Fixes for relaxed stability behavior (affected FBW and Aerodynamics slightly) watch controls indicator, wing is now more efficient in a turn as a result so may need to remove/modify previous tuning that was based on previous behavior
- Fixes for landing to fix ground effect behavior and lack of aerodynamic breaking. Also increased wheel braking power to a more accurate value.
- Fixed various CCM and Radar issues
- Fixes to AP in selective altitude taking too long to converge on target altitude and increased commanded vertical rate
- Fixes to AP for not initially going to correct maximum roll limit
- Fixes to AP for causing odd behavior when allowing speed to reduce below AP threshold speed (125 knots)
- Fixes to PCA behavior based on various issues with Magic 2 and Rockets
- Fixed some various devices that were not using the correct type of power source
- Fixed drag on rocket pods
- Fixed VOR/ILS morsse code heard even when off or volume at 0
- Fixed cold start mission not having correct payload definition
- Fixed issue with symmetrical payload definitions not having other wing tank working
- Fixed duplicate entry of flashlight, now using DCS default definition
- Fixed TrackIR movement limitations to be more correct for the cockpit size
- Fixed throttle movement limits for keyboard commands
- Fixed control flutter isssue on ground below 90 knots
- Updated auto-start to ensure all DECOL (Takeoff Authorization) requirements met

J’ai un aussi peu de mal à comprendre.

Je tournais depuis plusieurs années avec un i7 2600K 3.40 Go, une Gtx 580 et 8 Go de Ram. (Frame rate correct, options sur high)

La gazelle sort, j’annule les cours de claquettes de la petite, vends quelques bijoux de madame et fait l’acquisition du module et de la carte Nevada…

Là, Badaboum les fps se gamellent et plafonnent autour des 20 par seconde.

Bien fait, j’étais prévenu.

Je rapatrie la gamine de son collège suisse, résilie l’abonnement au yacht club de Madame, (j’ai même faillit brader la Rolls mais l’amputation d’un bras à suffit) et j’upgrade avec une gtx 970 et 16 Go.

Là, Alpha, la Gaz et Nevada tournent comme sur des roulettes mais sur l’open Béta c’est catastrophique. Fps autour de 20/25, options sur medium.

Quelqu’un as-t-il une explication ?

(à part bien sûr de changer le processeur… je vais finir à court de bras.)

[Jekar]

Pareil, c est le dernier update qui a plombé les FPS

[FrankOO32]

Deux semaines sans mises à jour :( alors qu'apparemment il y aurait de quoi en faire une au vu des rapports des différents développeurs.
