Sorry I am new to this, I only have DCS A-10. Do I install DCS world on top of DCS A-10, or do I uninstall A-10 then install "world" then A-10 again? My first attempt went like this, I left A-10 installed, then added "World" then the 1.2.0 A-10 patch. I like the interface of world and loading speed of A-10, and did a training mission and lost audio from the "trainer", still had audio from wingman. So, which is the correct way of installation? Sorry if I sound like a idiot, this is new to me too. Thank You.

P.S. I did see the post a few down, I am still confused.

AFM support is available to all licensed 3rd parties equally.

I am guessing Documentation and support on how to use the API for 3rd party FMs is all that is provided from ED. The 3rd party would be solely responsible for the actual FM - and ED supplies the interface for it to plug into.

Of course if a 3rd party want to use the SFM, I imagine it is a different matter.

Counting down until people interpret this to mean you've figured out how to model the back seat

You figured out backseats??!!11 Share the knowledge

You should ask ED mi24.dll ?

Correct. Addendum to 3. If you already activated DCS A-10C standalone on the same machine, there is no need to activate again.

Correct, there is NO news to pass along at this time. When there is, it will be shared. My understanding though is that most of the current network focus is on completing the dedicated server.

Engine simulation would be considered as part of the AFM, I assume. As with the flight dynamics, the engine and fuel simulation would have to be written from scratch within the AFM. There are no tools available.

While it is true that the electrical system (AC) is dependent on the engine, so are several other systems. In reality, all you need is the data (RPM) out of the engine to make the AC electrical generator work. This wouldn't need to be incorporated in the same AFM dll.

There have been a lot of questions of what the new FC3 Advanced Flight Model (AFM) for missiles entails, so here is description of some of the new features:
Launcher platform speed, thrust, missile weight, total drag, gravity, etc. are all calculated to determine missile speed.
Missiles now incur realistic energy bleed that accounts for drag, induced drag and gravity. Induced drag calculates g-load and that factors the missile’s lift. Missiles will now bleed energy very quickly if the target performs hard maneuvers.
We added a longitudinal-load fuze arming type. The missile warhead of missile will only be armed after reaching the assigned longitudinal g-load (acceleration). Otherwise the missile will not detonate.
We added a limited duration to the missile’s power system (gas-generator, generator and hydraulic pump). When the onboard power system is exhausted, the missile goes ballistic.
We added a self-destruction timer. Some missiles will self-destruct when the timer is reached.
We added altitude based of self-destruction. Some missiles will destruct when reaching an assigned altitude above ground level.
We added a guidance timer delay. After launching a missile, the missile will fly straight from the from launcher for safety reasons before initiating the guidance stage. This is typically 0.3…1.5 seconds. For example: the R-27R missile flies unguided forward for 0.5 seconds before guidance to target starts.
We added parameters of loft trajectory. The initial range to target, the range of transition to proportional navigation, and initial angle of loft are all factored.
