DCS Update
Development Progress
DCS Core
In the latest update, weapon systems received valuable optimizations including to the AIM-120 guidance system. Further enhancements focus on a long list of AI improvements, air defence unit effectiveness, as well as various needed bug fixes. We sincerely extend our gratitude to the Closed Beta Test members and the community for their valuable contributions. Other improvements include an Arleigh Burke class weapon selection panel and a general air defence unit update that avoids unrealistic identification and engagement without clear line of sight to target.
DCS: F-16C Viper
The F-16C Viper now features independent MFD brightness controls, saved master modes for Missile Override, and fixes for TMS/FCR functionality and CCIP steering. Automatic steerpoint sequencing now functions correctly, and the 152nd livery typo is corrected. Several radar improvements are also included. Work progresses on the Sniper ATP, Flight Model, and FLCS tuning.
DCS: F/A-18C
The F/A-18C receives the ability to dual-rack carriage of GBU-32s and various fixes for radar and navigation functions. Radar tuning and Multi-Sensor Integration (MSI) enhancements are ongoing, aiming to elevate its combat performance and versatility.
DCS: AH-64D
Air Targeting Mode of the Fire Control Radar was introduced, along with updates to mission and fuel functionality. Avionics and targeting bugs continue to be tuned, and we continue to improve stability and yaw control.
DCS: CH-47F
Updates include automatic turn coordination, Longitudinal Cyclic Trim (LCT), and initial Differential Air Speed Hold (DASH). These all greatly enhance stability and control. Significant improvements to radios and cockpit functionalities, along with AFCS tuning, are underway.
DCS: WWII Asset Pack & Other Aircraft Modules
New animations for WWII soldiers, damage model fixes, and aircraft adjustments across modules enhance immersion and realism. Notable updates include fixed brakes and visuals on aircraft such as the Fw 190 and Bf 109, and improved Yak-52 lighting for night flights.
DCS: Supercarrier
Airboss view fixes and logic for AoA repeater lights, with new deck crew animations approaching launch.
Afghanistan
Development Report
Work continues on both the Afghanistan Southwest region and the entire Afghanistan map. The ground mesh resolution across Afghanistan has been improved along with optimisation and bug fixes across the Southwest. The road network has been enhanced, especially the mountain roads. Additionally, ground geometry artefacts have been corrected.
Object model inaccuracies have been fixed and unique airfield objects have been added to diversify the scenery. We are also pleased to inform you that the Normal Map textures across the entire Afghanistan map have been refined for improved low-altitude visuals.
Our team is mainly focused on finalising the East region of the Afghanistan map. Work on the airfields of Bagram, Bamiyan, Gardez, Ghazni, Jalalabad, Kabul, Khost, Sharana, and Urgun is going well and the final stages of creating unique scenes for these airfields and their operational logic within the DCS Core is underway.
We have achieved significant progress on new roads, rivers, and lakes, as well as unique object models for the capital city of Kabul. We look forward to your feedback.
