Shadow060

Absolutely excited for this module. When I was deployed overseas I would get two of these to support us while on mission. Such an important bird for those of us on the ground, and what a mistake when the Army retired this bird. Those pilots were such an important piece to keeping us safe while we patrolled our AOR, and when things got bad they were down in the dirt with us. Hope the wait isn’t that long.

Forgot to add that I have a Nvidia gt260 graphics card.

Okay, bottom line up front, I am out of touch, and do not know what I should do to upgrade the system I currently have. I would like to be able to improve my performance while playing all of the DCS titled sims, and currently run everything on medium settings with no shadows, no civ traffic, and low water and get 30-35 fps. I'd like to be able to upgrade and run stuff as high as possible. My specs are below, and was hoping to get some advice on what to inprove (RAM, Graphics Card, etc.) thanks for the help.

Was flyinh eariler today...Took a few canon hits from a Mi-24 and saw a reduced fan speed in the right engine. Hit the override (?) switch on the left panel and the rpm's returned to near normal. Got a 'Right Engine Hot' Warning on the panel, but ignored it. I spontaneously combusted about 5-10 minutes later. Not sure, but I think I committed a delayed suicide ignoring the warning.

Just upgraded after reading this thread, and having played the 1.1... version prior to the 1.2 upgrade I have to agree that there is definately a difference in the amount of collective needed to maintain altitude/hover. There's more pitch in my rotors in 1.2 versus 1.1...

Is there a way to do this?

Well then a big thanks to Mbot! I still think it's pretty cool...and can't wait to see what other surprises are going to be discovered as this thing continues to grow.

So I just opened up the first mission in the new Campaign, and while reading the briefing I saw that 2nd Bde "BlackJack", 1st Cavalary Division was the friendly units, as with it's subbordinate Battalions! See I was a member of the "BlackJack"Brigade, specifically in 1-5 Cav "Black Knights", and part of D Troop (BRT), 9th Cavalry Regiment "Darkhorse". The BRT (Brigade Recon Troop) were the Recon Assets for the entire Brigade, and would generally be out in front or to the flanks running screens or doing other various missions. I spent most of my time in Iraq as a "Darkhorse", but spent alot of time as a "Black Knight" prior to going overseas. Thanks for the attention to detail and getting those units in there...It's be great to use "Darkhorse" Troops as a JTAC, Recon Element, or Forward element in contact, as that is how it really happened in the not so distant past. Either way...great product guys...Just Awesome!

Never Mind...I'm stupid

Does anyone know what the "State Code" for Texas is...need it to order

registration works now! but whats the State Code that is required for US Residents?

Standing by...ever so patiently :music_whistling:

The website is killing me!!! I just tried to register to download and all I get after I enter all my info is a blank page. When I refresh I get this message..."The reCAPTCHA wasn't entered correctly"...help

True...I took a Strela up the tail and didn't realize I was worm food until it was too late.

No point...I just figured you were sitting around and wanted to know :thumbup:. Thanks for the input guys...more to follow I'm sure.

Just picked up Lock On PLatinum from Best Buy. Now I just have to figure out all the different aircraft, and maybe figure out and start to dabble in some multiplayer action. Hopefully this will hold me over until DCS: A-10C makes it's appearance!

Gotta put the OH-58D in there...'nuff said!

Same problem here, and I don't have any mods...just a clean install and patch.

Still a bug...can't seem to be able to figure out a fix other than to not do a two monitor setup

I get the same thing and I didn't edit any cfg's, but I did edit the options lua and set up a new file in the monitor setup.

Sweet! Thanks for the help guys!

So do I need to be part of a VS to use Teamspeak and such, or if I wanted to pick up a flight/match whatever on the fly could I find a place to sign up and get up and running?

Maybe I missed it somewhere and couldn't find it through a search, but what does everyone use for multiplayer comms? Thanks.

Thanks for the help. I started over like you suggested with a clean copy, and got it up and running. Thanks again!

I have not tried any additional software solutions. I'm running a Dell 920 I7 with a dual head Nvidia 260. From everything I read, I thought I had configured the screens to run as an extended setup, and the changed the .lua files to start/stop the screens at the specific pixel spots. Additionally I tried to change the graphics options resolution, so that when I pull down the drop down menu to select a resolution I would have the wanted/needed resolution of 2880x1024, which I think is my hang up, because the highest resolution that I can select is 1600x900, which makes my primary screen fill with the pit just fine, but I am missing the Shkval and ABRIS on the remaining 1280 pixels.
