So F10 is used to bring up the in-game map. With the comm menu open, it is also used to access user defined radio options (OTHER). Because I use this radio function so frequently, I'd like to bind it to a joystick button. So I redefined the map view to SHIFT+F10 and bound F10 to the radio option. What I can't figure out though is why when I press the joystick button associated with pressing the F10 button on my keyboard, the map comes up (this is after I entered the radio menu). Does anyone know why this is happening or can anyone suggest a workaround? I use VR, and the problem persists with voice attack as well. Thanks!

Sorry, Gesamtdeutsch ...es gab ja keine westdeutsche MIG-29. Mir geht es mehr um die "Bemalung", nicht um eine authentische NATO-Version. Wenn es keine "Gesamtdeutsche Bemalung" geben sollte und ich zusammen mit anderen vom "Team blau" eine gemeinsame Mission fliegen möchte, dann sähe das schon etwas seltsam aus, wenn sich unter der Flotte NATO-Flieger plötzlich eine MIG-29 mit roten Sternen befindet!?

You are getting those Jester calls after landing about missing check list items. It was once fixed long time ago but seems to be back. I need to check.

It does, yes. So you get all the way to SEARCHING and then nothing happens. It is indeed odd. I replayed this specific training mission and it seems to work alright on my end. Since the mission walks you through the steps and you obviously fired a missile successfully from the observer's position already, it is safe to assume that the procedure is correct. That leaves my best guess at: could it be you accidentally bound AI Helper LEFT to something that might fire accidentally, and thus close the target list prematurely?

I have installed this mod CH-47F Reduced Cockpit Textures [2K, no MipMaps] and I am now enjoying 140 fps with an excellent quality. I was not happy with the "medium" quality textures but with this mod the quality is awesome and the performance excellent. I know we all hope top have a better solution without having to use mods but at least on the meantime, this helps a lot.

I know this is old but is there any kind of manual available for the VSN F-35 and which Flaming Cliffs bird do you need for it?

CVW-66 is currently back in training at Nellis polishing their skills before the next deployment. During this time we are looking for some fresh nuggets to join our group, we currently operate three (fictional) US Navy squadrons; VF-119 “Tridents”, flying the F-14B Tomcat, VFA-166 “Maulers”, flying the F/A-18C Hornet and VAW-101 “Sea eagles”, providing Airborne command & control using LotAtc. Carrier Air Wing 66 is a DCS World PVE multiplayer group, centered on US Navy fighters and operations. We fly events in the EURO time zone and generally fly THURSDAY and SUNDAY at 1930 CE(S)T, which is always 1930 local time in Amsterdam. If you are outside our zone, but the times work for you, you are still free to apply. We can be considered a ‘hard-core’ unit, in that we emphasize training, qualifications and dedicated pilots that fly together over an extended period using realistic tactics, techniques and procedures. Before considering joining, you should be able to attend at least one mission a week as a general rule, in addition to personal training offline. We use Discord as our main hub of interaction and communications between missions . When flying, we communicate using SRS (Simple Radio Standalone). Our student pilots (or ‘nuggets’ as they are called in the US Navy), progress through a qualifications program, where they learn the basic skills in aircraft handling and procedures (IQ), as well as basic weapons and tactics (MQ) and of course, carrier qualifications (CQ). After successfully completing IQ and CQ, you join the Wing on 'Cruise', which is our take on a dynamic campaign. Find us on discord and and have a look at our Welcome Document there. After that, give us a shout if interested! https://discord.gg/4VaxAPkHv2

Hello together. I want to share where my issue was coming from and how I fixed it. It's all about pressure! It's about the cable loop provided for this purpose on the head strap, the very stiff cable, and the probably too low tolerances of the fan blade covers. All this also explains why the problem mainly affects the left fan. A cable loop is provided to prevent the cable from kinking when the head strap is folded up. This loop has a guide. And this guide ensures that tension or pressure is applied to the cable. This pressure is transmitted via the cable connection to the optical unit. This is enough to cause the fan blades of the left fan to rub against the cover and produce a humming noise. If you remove the cable from the guide, the noise is almost 100% eliminated. I can't say exactly what is happening inside the optical drive without opening it up. But I'm not going to do that. The fact is, I can create or eliminate the problem on my own by changing the pressure on the cable. This is exacerbated if, like me, you have a “small” forehead, which causes the headset to bend even more and thus creates more pressure on the cable connection via the cable. So if anyone experiences a similar problem to mine, please try removing the cable loop from the designated loop to see if that helps.

Did you try to bind the JOYBTN20 to APU OFF with BTN20_OFF? So when you try to bind a button, you can manually select with the dropdown to _OFF. Same with the throttes? It is a new feature in DCS.

All I wanted was a Chinook with some freaken laser beams attached to it...

Хочу поблагодарить за очень подробный отзыв! Такие отзывы меня радуют. Надеюсь, остальные миссии понравятся не меньше первой. По замечаниям. - Действительно, Вы правы, я установил зону БД радиусом 7 км, от центрального моста. Можно было бы и больше, просто привык подходить ближе к противнику. В этой миссии для быстрого нахождения целей предусмотрены три оперативные точки, нужно просто выбрать на ПВИ кнопку ОТ и выбирать между 1 и 3, Шквал быстро перебрасывает на цели. - Не понял про диспетчера подлёта, можно чуть подробнее этот пункт? - «Вы можете завершить миссию по своему желанию.» - это было добавлено специально. Дело в том, что играя в разные пользовательские кампании сталкивался с тем, что цели вроде уже достигнуты, но неясность статуса миссии сохраняется. Если выйти в неудачный момент, может оказаться что не хватило баллов для продвижения дальше. Поэтому был добавлен этот пункт, который ясно и однозначно указывает игроку, что из миссии можно точно выходить. - Ливрея. На самом деле в сжатом виде в архиве она занимает только 50 МБ, остальные 200 МБ - сами файлы миссий. 50 это немного. Вот среди платных кампаний встречаются монстры по 2 Гб даже. Можно, конечно, убрать её, но придётся куда-то колхозить на файлообменник и прикладывать ссылку. Не уверен, поддерживает ли местный сайт посторонние ссылки. Лучше уж всё сразу одним пакетом. - Дубликаты. Это на самом деле вынужденная мера. Один дубликат – это кампания для старого Ка-50, тем, у кого нет нового вертолёта. Ну и пришлось разделить по языкам. Дело в том, что местный сайт не поддерживает выставить два языка в описании кампании одновременно. Люди ищут, к примеру, русский язык и не находят ничего, так как выставлен английский. То же было бы с англоязычными. Пришлось два раза заливать. Кампания на самом деле сделана на двух языках, но просто написать это в тексте не имеет смысла, это не индексируется поиском. Вначале я разместил её на бусти, но столкнулся с тем, что люди в массе своей форум не читают, просто заходят и смотрят что есть в файлах пользователей. Ещё раз благодарю и приятного полёта!

I appreciate when these more obvious issues are found, because it makes the asset more realistic with mostly just a simple fix.

yeah seems a bit off. Sochi is still green https://sochi.camera/vse-kamery/cam-423/

@Twwhitey I don't have this issue. I had to lower my brightness in DCS to 1.8 and in Pimax Play to 99 %.

Thanks for this, Im currently caught in an update storm. Nvidia, new MS update to address the corrupting Western Digital M.2 SSD drives as well as a BIOS update. I’m going to try updating EVERYTHING as it all just hit me at the same time. I doubt this will fix anything but if I’m wrong I’ll happily take it lol. I’ll update soon. Wondering if anyone else has the same MB and CPU on a 3090 setup. Also, my memory was stable as hell at 5400 vs 5600Mhz. As I’m running 4 sticks on a dual channel board (yes I know this is stressing the memory controller and yes I know I should be using 2 sticks instead of 4). The memory is corsair vengeance DDR5 rated to 6400 in XMP but XMP is disabled to run the 4 sticks. Stay tuned

So two of your points has nothing to do with the developer or the Herc, then i doesn't see how its relevant for this thread... i thought you had some arguments and reasons to explain it against the upcoming Herc... the feelings you have i am sure a lot of people sympatize and agree, but just relevant for the Herc threads...

Looks like that did the trick (sleighzy) ! I ran both SimAppPro and DCS "without" the admin and it solved the issue immediately. Also, ensured the properties / compatibility boxes were unchecked. Unusual that for years I'd been running it "with" admin with no issues whatsoever - but thankful for the assist.

I set off today with real time and today's date on a mission to the Caucasus and I noticed that September is no longer the green terrain it was until recently, I don't know when this was changed in the updates this year. I think it's time for our team to definitely pay some attention to this standard map, there are some irregularities with the seasons, so we had autumn from October, and snow from December to March, so that March would immediately be a green month, which is also unrealistic.We can all see that September is not yet yellow and the leaves are green, especially in the Caucasus, which is a forest-mountain terrain. Any support on the forum would be welcome, because all of us here as a community are helping to improve our shared DCS.

V1.1 released, thanks to @H60MTI for inspiring me to take a second look at it... I found an issue with the right side M134 code... it was using the left side muzzle point connector resulting in the crash to desktop. v1.1 adds the M134s on both sides of the aircraft and provides compatibility with the MH-47 attachments mod by @JinxxDCS... if you want to use both mods, ensure you install the MH-47 attachments mod FIRST. Download links updated in the original post. And a short video showing off M-134s on the CH-47F:

Got 'em, I'd say.

I'd say my focus as of late lies with the F-4E, even though I don't really do all that much with it, and - even if that seems to be rare so far - the Mi-8.

Gotcha. No worries just figured I'd point it out as most of the armor unit ranges are all wrong anyways haha.
