Virtual Military Command members are allowed to use LWAMI until the hyperrealistic USMORS mod for DW becomes available.

Is the USMORS mod going to be freely available or only for members of the Virtual Military Command ?

I'm not sure. :hmm:

Someone with more experience in VMC should answer that question.

Before speaking of course I tried ( several months ago ... ) to tweak drag and mass values, via Ludger last editor, obtaining only the effects you mentioned, therefore I reached the sentence that physics rules have been curved by SCS to Alpha Centauri constellation system.
This despiting excellent tries made by you, I always think games should be DeVelOpeD and TesTeD from modders and fans, not from people who Ignore even the basics physics rules.

Same speech with FFGs , I remember before playing DW FFGs , I was always used to take 2 strong pills in order to be able to deal whith the physics effects of DW FFG and subs... later on,in order to forget about what I have seen, I was forced to drink an huge glass of old Whiskey. Three days later I restarted everything from scratch and then and so on for weeks..then I was forced to give up playing DW...


Anyway I am very glad to see that after Thom and Bros someone else still tries to revert games as they should be

Cheers

I took a look at the VMC website the other day and from what I saw there didn't appear to be much activity there. The members list seemed kind of short too.

It's not the size that matters...

And the website does need to be updated.

It is deceptive on the forum, as there are many more individual boards than are actually used at this point.

Like I said, someone with more experience than I should answer this, but since it is a group dedicated to hyperrealism, and their has been an absense of a realism mod up until recently, (the USMORS people are very thorough in their work), I could imagine that some group members are taking a break.

That's my guess.

In any case, I'd rather be in a fleet that focuses on accuracy and make way way in that, than play a thousand "SS-N-27's From Heaven" deathmatches... but that's just me.

I just want to be clear that I was making an observation and not a judgement regarding VMC. From what I read on their page(s) it certainly sounds like an interesting group.

Something else to consider with the multiple boards on the VMC website is the expandability of future operations. It's too bad that my family commitments keep me from participating...

Just sell your copy so you will never have to bear again with the "oh my god look at scs is such disgraceful software company for having produced such a pos"
Don't like DW, sell it and get over it instead of continually nitpicking ultra-minor errors that don't compromise gameplay.

No, the ai helo doesn't use the dipping sonar, you can just as well instruct it to drop a buoy.

If you use Bill's corrected Helo Dipping doctrine and have the helo on Helo control, I believe it will.
