It's got HVARS, I had to buy it!

I've got Black Shark, A-10, and even though I haven't been using them often I thought at less than $40 I'd buy it to support the developers.

Also we need some CAC Mustang skins ASAP!

Where's my copy of photoshop!

When I download it I'll report back!

Now we just need Thrustmaster to release a P51 grip for the Warthog joystick!!!

The 32 player limit for multiplayer sounds a bit restrictive.

I mean I get this frame of mind I really do, for me its just the appreciation of sim companies still putting stuff out. In the days of Call of Duty rehashed garbage, the thought of flying a P-51, even if its just fighting other P-51's or killing trains and other ground targets with the FM quality of ED makes, life good.
And the hint at 3rd parties developing WWII era "stuff"... well the future looks brighter...

That is another good idea.. I wonder if DCS has racing towers in their map building tools?

PS got it DL last night, but was too late, will install tonight

Anyone been able to go online with it yet?

I see they have the REAR WARNING RADAR light on the dash (that round looking thing just left of the gunsite)

I wonder if it actully works?

What with all the other radar stuff simulated in the DCS software this should be an easy thing to impliment.

I believe the radar is in the game, although I havent got into deep enough to confirm this, but it was talked about early on.

As for the racing towers, the tools for creating 3D objects are out, if they arent already made maybe that can be my first attempt

Yes they do!

Object wise would they have any armour that would resemble 1950's North Korean Tanks?

RAAF P-51D's and CAC-18' were right into ground attack right up until we got our Metors operational

WOOT

First Flight!

Landing I could walk away from!

Boy.. if it didn't take DCS so long to put out a plane.. They could be a contender!

Hey Ace,

I'm still downloading the sim and won't be able to try it out till after work.

What was the installation like?

I read something about it requiring 'World of Planes'? Is that a seperate download or does it install it all automatically?

Cheers!
