Stretch

Not sure if this is a bug or how it's supposed to be, but if I have any sort of custom kneeboard in Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Kneeboards\<aircraft>, the kneeboard in <mission>.miz\KNEEBOARD does not appear in game, nor does the terrain kneeboard. Removing the Kneeboards dirctory from Saved Games\DCS.openbeta restores the mission and terrain kneeboards.

Sorry guys, I dropped the ball on renewing the certificate. Will get it fixed by tomorrow.

When I choose "VR ON", the program launches with SteamVR. How can I force it to launch with OpenXR (new in the latest OB)?

In the briefing you are told to maintain position behind and to the left of the S-3. As the flights join up, there is no room to the left, only to the right. I tried to fly to the left of the S3, and my -2 collided with one of the Moonshadows and they both perished. Plenty of room to the right, though.

The brief says that the approach will be Case III, but the mission ends well before sunset and Marshal has you fly a Case I.

Just a suggestion for an improvement. When Lead committed me to the bandits, I flew there in gate there to maximize my Slammer's legs. Pickled the AIM-120 and then slowed for the crank. By the time the engagement was over, I was on the opposite side of the IP from Lead, so when he told me to go direct to the IP, I did as he said and hot-nosed him. This meant we were approaching the target from nearly opposite azimuths, which meant I was in LAR long before he was. When he called press on the primary, I pickled immediately, meaning I was Dakota before I was re-tasked. No big deal, I thought -- my wingman still had his two pigs, so I could just delegate to him, right? Well of course, both his bombs miss completely. It would have been nice in the briefing notes to say something like "Do not drop your JSOW until after -2 does" … or work it into the story by having Lead say "we will pickle in sequence, call your bruisers" or something.

Fixed, will appear in a later revision.

Thanks! Added to the list.

I've updated the manual, which will appear in a later release. The dispense switch operates as follows: CMDS switch set to ON: FWD: activates CMDS program 5 AFT: activates the CMDS program selected on the EW page CMDS switch set to BYPASS: FWD: dispenses 2 chaff AFT: dispenses 2 flares

I got a Windows Defender threat warning (not an RWR threat warning, lol) when launching DCS, claiming that the Avionics.dll file in the MiG-21 module is infected with the Wacatac.D4!ml trojan. Not sure if it's a false positive, or if there's actually a threat, but thought you should know.

Should work any time you use the AI LSO but I’m not sure if it will do a good job detecting which pilots did which traps.

Hey everyone! I just finished up my first pass at a new website, https://greenie.app . It’s a “greenie board” you can use with your virtual squadron to track your passes, traps, grades, and boarding rate. Best of all, you can upload your dcs.log files to it and it will automatically find grades given out by the DCS: Supercarrier LSO and add them. If you don’t agree with the Supercarrier LSO, or you want to add your passes manually, you can do that too. This website is brand freakin’ new so I would recommend signing up with a test account and giving it a try before moving your entire squadron over. It also probably doesn’t have every single feature your squadron needs, but I will try to add the more popular requests. If you’re a software engineer and you’re fluent in Ruby/Rails and TypeScript/Vue, you can send me PRs with the features you want too: https://github.com/Greenie-app Please check it out, let me know what works and what doesn’t, and hopefully you like it! Limitations: The DCS: Supercarrier add-on is a work-in-progress. Currently, logging of LSO grades is sporadic and not all passes are guaranteed to result in a grade being logged. Furthermore, these grades are not associated with the pilot who made the pass, so Greenie.app has to "guess" which pilot flew the pass by associating the LSO grades with nearby "landing" events. Obviously, if the pass was a bolter or waveoff, no landing event is logged, and the pass is not associated with a pilot. For this reason, proper logging of a squadron's passes requires a hands-on approach. Upload the dcs.log soon after flying your mission or carrier quals, and then compare the resulting passes with your real LSO's notes. Edit, move, or remove passes as needed. You can also use the website without uploading dcs.log files at all. Simply have your real paddles (or their assistant) keep the website open while your pilots are making their passes. The LSO will be able to quickly log the grades for each pass. You can also record your missions to track logs and input the grades later.

I'm an idiot. You have to hook it while on the ground. Following instructions: F-

I don't think that's a bug. He says "check-in in 1 hour" on the first callup.
