Long time BMS fan, I tried out DCS for the first time...

I wanted to see what the fuss was about so I tried out DCS. Graphics do look pretty. Especially clouds and the rain effects. But my goodness...the mission editor in DCS is god awful. Making a custom mission is such a pain compared to how easy it is to make missions in BMS. They don't even have a dynamic campaign so you're forced to use the mission editor or fly scripted missions that other people made. I ended up uninstalling it because it just isn't worth it. My SSD thanked me too. I can get far more immersive missions and with great ease in BMS. Textures in BMS aren't even bad now; once you're in the pit things aren't so far apart from DCS.

BMS update coming soon?

I keep hearing from people that an update is coming soon. I know the BMS devs are real tight lipped about it and that's fine. But if anyone can give us a hint, that would be great. World is waiting for GTA 6, but we would rather get a BMS update =)

Rain. How do I get it to rain?

I want to do some night missions in the rain. Not snow. Not windy. Just night and rain. I know how to make it night, but how do I get it to pouring rain? Is it just setting the weather to poor?

edit: Okay I got it to rain by setting everything to inclement weather in the deterministic weather settings in the 2D menu. but there arent any water droplets. So I did some digging and I think the rain is effed right now. No droplets due to some issue with 4.38. Sad. I love the rain effect on the canopy.

edit2: At night you can't even see the rain unless you go to external view or turn on NVG. But when you turn on NVG, sometimes it will flash lightning? and basically blind you.

Hope rain is fixed in BMS 4.9 =D

When visiting a clinic or hospital, is a Korean driver's license enough? Or do you need to bring ARC?

I have a F visa and I want to visit a nearby clinic. I am wondering if I need my ARC or if I can just bring my Korean driver's license. Anyone know? Thank you!

Edit: They just took my drivers license without any issue. Was more than enough

Other than the Tolkien illustrated edition and the Alan lee editions, is there another edition that has more illustrations than them?

I like the Hobbit by Jemima because there are so many pictures. It makes it great for kids. I was wondering if LOTR had anything like that..please let me know if they do!

Hyundai Bluehands. Do they charge you for leaving the car overnight?

I had to take my car in for an electrical issue and it was nearly closing time. They said that they could not work on it until the next day. I didn't think to ask them at that time but do they charge you for keeping the car overnight? And if I don't pick up the car immediately, will I be charged for keeping my car there? If you have experience, please let me know! Obviously I wont keep my car there for a week, but due to work I cannot immediately return to the shop in the morning...

Reoccurring corossion on battery terminal. New battery dead.

I need some advice. I have a 2014 hyundai Azera and every year I replace the battery because there's corrosion. 2.4L It causes all sorts of electrical issues. Now my car won't start even though the battery is less than five months old and I cleaned the terminals. What could be the issue? Car ran fine last night. This morning nothing turns on.

One thing I noticed yesterday was that the left blinker rate was extremely fast.

Something like this happens every year. Whenever I take it to the shop they say it's not a big deal and just brush off the terminals. 

I'm gonna jump start it soon and see if the problem goes away. Mechanics looked at it many times and said it's not a big issue and they just cleaned the terminals for me. But this much corrosion even with new batteries tells me something critical is wrong. Could it be a bad alternator? Or a black box that's always on? Would love your insight. ​​​

In OOTP, does it make a difference if you manage the game yourself vs simulate? Is it worth to manage important games?

I'm wondering if it really does make a difference if you manage the game yourself or will everything still be "simmed" and there's not much you can change with a hands on approach to the game (especially making subs).

Please let me know. I am about to go into the LS and I am wondering if I should sim the Game 7 or manage it myself. Thanks!

Why did Cal Raleigh take a nose dive in his stats after the WS? He won and he played very well.

WS game 1. They have 80 Misiorowski. Should I put in my best pitcher now or save him? My staff and pen are much deeper than theirs.

How come overall and potential ratings change drastically when moving a pitcher around in the rotation?

I was messing around with my pitching rotation and I noticed something strange. I moved Bryan Woo around and his ratings plummeted from 70 to 60. I put him back but it's still 60. Is he mad that I took him out of the rotation for a second?! How can I fix this? Can someone explain. Thank you! ​​

Issue with lineup fatigue (batters). What can I do to reduce fatigue?

I'm having an issue where I am losing games because my guys are always tired. I simulate all my games so I am thinking that the AI is not replacing my tired starters. Is there something I can do to address this? Also, does developmental budget affect tiredness of my players? I am willing to go above and beyond to make sure Cal Raleigh is not so tired all the time. I even brought in an extra catcher.

I also got players who can play multiple roles on the roster. But it's not really helping.

Does DCS have good Ai?

As someone who plays BMS and IL2, I've noticed how important Ai is to a military flight sim. I want to get into dcs but I'm a bit wary because I heard some bad things about dcs Ai. Can someone give me the real scoop? Is dcs mostly a multiplayer Sim or does it have decent Ai? In bms, the Ai actually dogfight and have their own beyond visual range tactics. They're quite good on the highest difficulty. Il2 isn't so bad but their friendly AI is garbage. What about dcs? Also, are there Any plans for dcs Ai to improve down the road? ​Thanks
