All intensive test where made with HDR "Normal" and 1920x1080 16:9
 
- if is this isn't working like on the video for you
and you want to change the point when the darkening of the HDR kicks in:
 
open
 
\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Bazar\shaders\sky\
 
skyQuad.fx
 
and change in line #49 the "300.0".
 
to a smaller value = later HDR
or greater value = sooner HDR
 
use steps of 10.0 and make a test in-game
-than fine-tune it.
 
Keep in mind that it the HDR effect highly depends of your used FOV (Zoom) and how dark the actual scene is.
 
 
Higher the FOV in the external views to take screen-shots with full sun.

F16 vs Mig29 dogfight

A-10 Smerch Hunt by Brit_Radar_Dude.
 
A Smerch battery is hiding in the vicinity of Krasnodar and rocket attacks continue to trouble Allied forces. Intel reports that an abandoned Smerch has been repaired and is being escorted South by road along the Western lakeshore to rejoin its parent unit. Locate and follow this Smerch,its final destination may give us the method by which the enemy are hiding these units from us.

Su-27 Fictional Skins: US Navy Fighter Squadrons (Volume II)
for DCS World 1.2.14 and later
 
This is a collection of seven skins representing three US Navy fighter squadrons using historical F-14 Tomcat liveries. The squadrons included are:
VF-2 Bounty Hunters (CAG, Line birds) VF-111 Sundowners (CAG, Line birds) VF-213 Blacklions (CAG, CO, Line birds)

The VF-213 skins date from their 2005 deployment with CVW-8 on the USS Theodore Roosevelt (the "Tomcat Farewell Tour").
 

Most markings have been westernized, and the pilots have been given USN flightsuits with Naval Aviator wings and squadron patches. The helmet remains Russian made.
 
The VF-2 skins were inspired by GeorgeLKMT's VF-2 CAG skin for Dino Cattaneo's F-14D (for FSX), and the skin was also used as a starting point for my own VF-2 CAG skin.
 
Note: this skin pack uses an EXE installer that creates common texture folders and an autoexec.cfg (if you already have one, you can make manual changes). I would like your feedback on this system; if it works I intend to apply it to my other skin packs.
 
Be sure to download Volume I.
 
 
 
For Compact Installations - A Note About Autoexec.cfg:
 
Rather than copying texture files to their respective livery folders, I prefer to use a series of common texture folders along with unique filenames. This allows a single instance of many of my common textures, and keeps the hard drive footprint to a minimum (especially nice if you run a SSD for your system drive).
 
The installer will add a series of folders to the DCS Texture path; if you do not have these folders created, then it is no problem. The autoexec.cfg included will automatically point to the Texture folder in your Saved Games\DCS folder, and regardless of whether you run the Open Alpha, Open Beta, or Release version of DCS, the path will always point to your Saved Games\DCS\Texture folder. Again, this saves space on your hard drive.
 
If you use your own Autoexec.cfg, then when prompted to overwrite you can click "no". This will create a file called autoexec.new, and you can manually make the updates as you like. Just don't modify the top line with the file date; this is used by the installer for version control. However, feel free to include it in your existing autoexec.cfg, so you don't get prompted to overwrite until there's another update to the autoexec.cfg.
 
If you inadvertently overwrite your autoexec.cfg, it is actually backed up as autoexec.old. Just open it and copy the appropriate information to the new file.
 

For Traditional Installations:
 
If there is an issue with textures not displaying, it is likely a problem with the installer. Please let me know what textures are missing so that I can troubleshoot the issue.

Su27/33 cockpit gauges color mod for lockon....LoMan compatible

This tutorial assumes that you already have a basic understanding of the Su-25'sinstrumentation. It's goal is to demonstrate the use of the HSI and ADI in navigation.

Install into Bazar folder. Not ModMan compatible. Created by Kuky from 3Sqn. www.3sqn.com

NOTE: This only works with DCS World 1.2.16 or earlier. DCS World 1.5/2.0 uses a new MiG-29 model.
 

I originally did this at the request of a friend, who wished to have the Czech camouflage pattern on fictional Georgian MiGs. I used the Czech pattern as a starting point, then used the colors on the Georgian MiG-21 to finish the job. Once I completed the pattern, I eventually decided to release it to the public.
 
In addition to Georgia, the skin is available to Russia, Ukraine, and Insurgents.
 

Installation:
 
These MiG-29A skins do not require you to overwrite any existing "slots"; they exist as individual skins using the standard definition.lua format. Simply put the skins in your Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\ folder; you should be able to extract using the path that exists in this archive file.
 
In order to have the Georgian MiG-29A (and the skins) available for Georgia in the Mission Editor, you will need to update the db_countries.lua file located in DCS World\Scripts\Database. Open the file in a text editor like Notepad++ and search for the following string:
-- GEORGIA
This is the comment line that starts the Georgia section.
 
In the first section,you will see the following entries:
cnt_unit( units.Planes.Plane, "Su-25"); cnt_unit( units.Planes.Plane, "An-26B"); cnt_unit( units.Planes.Plane, "Su-25T"); cnt_unit( units.Planes.Plane, "L-39ZA"); cnt_unit( units.Planes.Plane, "Yak-40"); cnt_unit( units.Planes.Plane, "P-51D");
These are the planes available to Georgia in the mission editor. Just add the following line:
cnt_unit( units.Planes.Plane, "MiG-29A");
You may also optionally add that line to the section starting with
-- INSURGENTS
This opens more possibilities for scenarios, and all of the included skins are available to the Insurgents as well as Russia and the Ukraine.
 
 
 
Special thanks to Jack for allowing the use and modification of his enhanced pylon texture, as well as his collaboration in developing MiG-29 skins that are not dependent on the original "slots" of the Flanker 2.5/LOMAC models.

Ok this is not my best thing what i can do but i do it for fun.

Scramble Seawolves!
 
This was the common call in Vietnam when the US Navy Riverine Forces and SEALs needed immediate fire support. Helicopter Attack Squadron (Light) Three (HAL-3), known as the Seawolves, was the most decorated unit in the Vietnam War.
 
Seawolves flew UH-1B Huey gunships in all weather, day or night, in support of the Brown Water Navy. In fact, most of the missions were conducted at night in inclement weather, which is exactly when the SEALs preferred to operate. HA(L)-3 would conduct Close Air Support, Hot Medivac and Insertion/Extraction of SEAL Teams.
 
HA(L)-3 was decommissioned in March 1972, near the end of the Vietnam War.
 
Unit Decorations:
6 Presidential Unit Citations
6 Navy Unit Citations
Meritorious Unit Citation
Vietnam Cross of Gallantry (MUC) Palm
Vietnam Civil Action (Honor) with Palm
Vietnam Presidential Unit Citation

Individual Decorations:
5 Navy Crosses
31 Silver Stars
2 Legions of Merit
219 Distinguished Flying Crosses
156 Purple Hearts
101 Bronze Stars
142 Gallantry Crosses
Over 16,000 Air Medals
439 Navy Commendation Medals
228 Navy Achievement Medals

The Skin (Seawolf 321):
 
I chose to model the HA(L)-3 UH-1B airframe in the scheme as it now exists on the USS Midway (CV-41) floating museum. Because of the 3D models used for the aircrew, I have skinned the pilots and gunners in contemporary USN flight uniforms. The pilots bear the nametags of LT James R. Walker and LTJG Robert E. Baratko, both of whom were awarded the Navy Cross in service with the Seawolves.
 
A note about the Crew Chief & Door Gunner:
 
Since enlisted US troops don't wear rank/rate insignia on flightsuits, their rank/rate is displayed on their nametag. Since there are no specific nametag textures for the crew chief/door gunner texture, I have added a nametag to the velcro on the chest armor (as is standard practice).
 
In choosing names for the texture, I opted for US servicemembers who received the Medal of Honor. MA2 Michael Monsoor represents the Unites States Navy in this skin. The following is his Medal of Honor citation:
 
For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty while serving as Automatic Weapons Gunner for Naval Special Warfare Task Group Arabian Peninsula, in support of Operation IRAQI FREEDOM on 29 September 2006. As a member of a combined SEAL and Iraqi Army sniper overwatch element, tasked with providing early warning and stand-off protection from a rooftop in an insurgent-held sector of Ar Ramadi, Iraq, Petty Officer Monsoor distinguished himself by his exceptional bravery in the face of grave danger. In the early morning, insurgents prepared to execute a coordinated attack by reconnoitering the area around the element's position. Element snipers thwarted the enemy's initial attempt by eliminating two insurgents. The enemy continued to assault the element, engaging them with a rocket-propelled grenade and small arms fire. As enemy activity increased, Petty Officer Monsoor took position with his machine gun between two teammates on an outcropping of the roof. While the SEALs vigilantly watched for enemy activity, an insurgent threw a hand grenade from an unseen location, which bounced off Petty Officer Monsoor's chest and landed in front of him. Although only he could have escaped the blast, Petty Officer Monsoor chose instead to protect his teammates. Instantly and without regard for his own safety, he threw himself onto the grenade to absorb the force of the explosion with his body, saving the lives of his two teammates. By his undaunted courage, fighting spirit, and unwavering devotion to duty in the face of certain death, Petty Officer Monsoor gallantly gave his life for his country, thereby reflecting great credit upon himself and upholding the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.
 
Petty Officer Monsoor is also the namesake of the USS Michael Monsoor (DDG-1001), the second in the upcoming line of Zumwalt Class guided missile destroyers.
 
Updating from Version 1.03 or earlier:
 
DCS World 1.2.7 changes the pilot and gunner texture files, so the textures have been updated accordingly in this file. In order to clear out the obsolete files, go to the individual folder and remove the following files:
Gunner_UH1_*.dds
Pilot_UH1_USN.dds

Installation:
Copy the folders (except for TempTextures; see below) to your Liveries\uh-1h folder (either in DCS World\Bazar or Saved Games\DCS).
 
Optional:
The release of DCS World 1.2.4 added the ability to add texture paths using the file "autoexec.cfg" in your Saved Games\DCS\Config folder. This will allow you to save hard drive space as long as the skin filenames are unique. My skins support this, so any DDS file with the same name will be identical.
 
In order to enable this feature, add the following line to autoexec.cfg (be sure to create the file if it doesn't exist):
 

table.insert(options.graphics.VFSTexturePaths, "C:/Users/<username>/Saved Games/DCS/Textures")
You can use any path (even a different drive), but you must use forward slashes for your path. Backslashes won't work here.
 
Then, you can move all of the DDS files from each of the skin folders to this new folder you've added to your path. Allowing overwrites is not a problem, as I use unique names for each file. Finally, be sure to go into each description.lua file and change all "false" entries to "true."
 
 
Special thanks to upuaut for assistance with the more "exotic" material names, as well as the assistance with custom rotor colors.
 
You are free to use any of the textures (e.g. USN helmet) in other skins or projects as long as proper credit is provided in the readme file.
 
 
 
Enjoy, and Fly Navy!

Escort an attack on the Kuznetsov with your F15. This is an average difficulty mission. Not too hard.

it's the migs vs f-15c's. it's flying at mission multiplayer. u can fly the migs, sams are in the game so beware. it have fun written all over it!! compatible with v1.01 n v1.02. the 2 files i made, u have to use loman to open them.

We've all seen the movie Top Gun, right? Remember that scene when Jester is behind Maverick and Goose? "Goose, I'm gonna let him get in closer." "What, Closer??!!!" Goose exclaims. "I'll get him in closer, then I'll hit the brakes, and he'll fly right by."
 
Maverick, in the above scenario, is forcing a defensive overshoot.
 
Each item in step-1 through step-4 should be performed as simultaneously as possible (at the same time):
 
***Step-1***
Level off. Fly straight and level.
 
Release trim (ctrl-t). This will let the plane unload to zero-G. zero-G enables the plane to pick up speed.
 
Full power (engage afterburner, if your plane is equipped with it).
 
Full right or left rudder (z or x). It is extremely difficult for online (and AI) pilots to hit a plane that is moving laterally (using rudder).
 
***Step-2***
Jink. Move the flight stick side to side. Be careful not to pull back on the stick, as this will slow you down. We don't want to slow down TOO MUCH yet. @@@You're still holding rudder down, right?@@@
 
Modulate Power. pull the throttle to Idle. Then, slam the throttle to afterburner. Repeat this process of switching from idle to afterburner. This will make it more difficult for the enemy to achieve a good firing solution. It will also allow him to slowly get closer. @@@You're still holding rudder down, right?@@@
 
Let him get close. If you can see the enemy pilot in the cockpit, he's close. (Use F-5 view until you get used to performing an overshoot).
 
***Step-3***
Now that he's close:
 
Extend Flaps full (shift-F). This will provide lift to keep your plane from stalling.
 
Extend Brakes (Shift-B). This slows down your plane.
 
Release rudder. Do NOT hold the rudder down at this point. If you do, you'll most likely enter a flat spin in the next part of the manuever.
 
Barrell Roll. Pull hard back on the stick while deflecting the stick full right or full left. In other words position the stick to the lower left or lower right. Listen for stall warning. Ease off the back pressure if you hear it.
 
***Step-4***
After the enemy flies past you:
 
Retract brakes (ctrl-B)
 
Full power (engage afterburner, if your plane is equipped with it).
 
Retract flaps to half (f)
 
Get behind bad guy.
 
Retract flaps completely (ctrl-f)
 
Shoot bad guy down.
 
 
I have a .trk file illustrating this at Biohaz. Here's the Link. http://forum.biohazcentral.com/index.php?download=709 There's a lull in the action at the start of the .trk. Press ctrl-a to fast forward the .trk and shift-a for normal speed. The first battle I win hands down. The second battle I let the enemy get behind me to demonstrate overshoot. He guns me and I take some damage, on the first overshoot. The second overshoot, I am unable to extend flaps or barell roll (otherwise I'll start spinning). Other than lack of flaps, it shows a nice overshoot (if I say so myself :-).
 
***P.S. It works in Real Life, too.***
 
The two fighters separated and came back at each other again, performing two up-and-down maneuvers, trying to get on each other's tail. The MiG stayed with the Phantom every step of the way. Cunningham thought: "He's gonna get lucky one of these times."
Then Cunningham cut power and extended his airbrakes, forcing the MiG to overshoot. The MiG pilot went into a steep dive to escape and Cunningham followed. The range was long and Sidewinders could be easily confounded by ground heat sources on a downward shot, but Cunningham launched anyway. Somewhat to his surprise, the missile went home and the MiG exploded.

Ray Bourgholtzer, who flew F7F-3Ns out of Kangnung, wrote, "I knew John Andre and he flew both F7F's and Corsairs. He was flying a Corsair when he shot down the Yak. It had come in behind him and when he realized he was being attacked. He dropped wheels and flaps, and cut the throttle. This caused the Yak to overshoot him and when he did, Andre then increased his throttle and pulled up the wheels and flaps and stayed with the Yak and shot him down with his 4 20mm cannon."
