Dear Fighter Pilots, Partners and Friends,

We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that the Free to Play Program is available for all of our most popular modules, such as the DCS: F-16C Viper, DCS: F/A-18C, DCS: AH-64D, DCS: Mi-24P Hind. If you haven’t yet test flown some of the fabulous aircraft, don’t wait to discover something challenging and new. 

We are happy to announce that we are working on some important improvements to the multiplayer interface. The first step involves adding numerous filters and a search field to the "Select role" server screen. The second phase will include being able to select spawn locations directly from the map. These enhancements are based on your feedback and from multiplayer server owners, closed beta testers and content creators. Thank you and keep those ideas flowing. 

Please kindly remember that if you are a server owner or a content creator, we’d love to hear from you! Make sure to get in touch for a chance to be featured in a future newsletter.

Thank you for your passion and support.

Yours sincerely,

Eagle Dynamics

Free to Play

Development Progress

In the Free to Play Program, you can test any participating module of your choice for a period of two weeks. Enjoy seamlessly transitioning to the next one or even try out multiple modules simultaneously. If you wish to reactivate the trial license after the initial period, you'll have the opportunity to do so after six months.

To participate in the trial, simply follow the link and click on the "Try" button next to the module. Once you've made your selection, proceed to install the chosen module through our user-friendly module manager.

For more details, please refer to these instructions on installing modules.

Multiplayer

Development Progress

The new filters will allow you to much more efficiently navigate the select role screen, which often contains dozens of aircraft slots on sophisticated multiplayer missions. The filters can be added one by one to narrow the list of available slots you may be interested in. They include airfields or starting points for the slot, aircraft type and specific seat/role in the cockpit.

In addition, a special group of filters will be available to filter slots to only those modules you have installed. Another filter for which airfield coalition is currently the same as the slot, in case of the airfield being captured by another coalition. Moreover, hot start, cold start and air start slots filters. A free search field will allow search for any specific string; you can search for a username to see which slot is occupied by this user. As a second step, we plan to improve the interface after joining the server with additional interaction right on the map. Please follow the news for more details coming soon.
