  1. So, I'm having one of my famous "wanna make it as real as possible" brainfarts again, and seeing (hoping) that there are some real world Navy and Air Force people here on the DCS forum, I'd like to ask for there help. What I'm looking for are real world TACAN and ICLS codes for carriers ,specifically the Roosevelt, Lincoln, Washington, Stennis and Truman (yep, the super carriers) and the Tarawa (preferably the Peleliu) I would understand that giving TACAN and ICLS codes that are currently being used will probably be a security violation, so I'm already very happy with outdated TACAN and ICLS codes Next up : TACAN codes for tankers, specifically the S-3B, KC-135 and KC-135MPRS. What I found is that 100X, 100Y and 65X are mostly usedfor tankers. Again, if soemone knows outdated TACAN codes, and is willing to share them, I would be very happy.
  2. So I'm bin having some trouble with the radios for the last months : They stop working after a couple of minutes. Yes, I'm using easy communications. At the strat of a (self made) mission, yyou can contact ATC, tankers or AWACS, no problem what so ever. Yet after a X amount of minutes, the radios, or communications stop working : you still hear yourself call ATC, tankers or a AWACS but there is no response. Is anyone here familiar with this problem, and maybe know a sollution ? (For your information, I'm using a lot of mods in DCS)
  3. A couple of weeks ago I noticed that the AV-8BNA turning circle while taxing is a lot larger then it use to be. Taxing on a carrier (LHA) is impossible. Anyone else noticed this ? (And yes, NWS was on)
  4. From reading the last two pages, just so I understand correctlyy : Any further cooperation/dvelopment between DCS and Razbam has stopped ? No more support for the AV-8BNA ?
  5. So I've bin using this scenario for a couple of weeks now (since the v4 release) but I just noticed that all the civilian car traffic and trains are gone in this scenario : Nothing is driving or running on rails. Are there more people how noticed the same thing ?
  6. I noticed during the attement to creat a scenario, and using al lot of ships that the depth in ports (Rostock, Cuxhaven , and the Elbe aren't deep enough for the vessels that you would normal see in these place's. Especially the Elbe, which goes from 30+ metres depth to just 1 in a route that is used by every vessel going and leaving Hamburg. If possible, could this be improved ? Or is there a way a user like myself can doe it himself ?
  7. DCS World (latest version) just doesn't want to start in VR. Yesterday I've updated the Nvida driver (removed with DDU) because of a new GPU (RTX 5090) Reinstalled DCS World yesterday (after buying the Cold War Map, something with the SSD that it was one not having enought space Just updated Pimax Play tot the latest version. Yet I'm constantly getting this error : 2025-04-20 14:45:22.479 ERROR VISUALIZER (Main): OpenXR failure XrResult failure [XR_ERROR_RUNTIME_UNAVAILABLE] Origin: xrEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties(nullptr, 0, &instanceExtensionCount, nullptr) Source: Projects\Visualizer\Source\OpenXR\openxr_program.cpp:225 2025-04-20 14:45:22.479 ERROR VISUALIZER (Main): OpenXR exception: XrResult failure [XR_ERROR_RUNTIME_UNAVAILABLE] Origin: xrEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties(nullptr, 0, &instanceExtensionCount, nullptr) Source: Projects\Visualizer\Source\OpenXR\openxr_program.cpp:225 I've only got Pimax Play installed and the latest OpenXR toolkit (I like to see what the GPU is doing when it comes to frame times and FPS) No SteamVR, no PimaxXR and the latest OPenXr toolkit : there isn't anything that should be able to interver with OpenXR. Removed al mods : still no go. If anyone knows what's going on here and would be so kind to tell me, it would be very much appreciated dcs.log
  8. FOUND IT : When on catapult, turn external lights off and back on again, salute and off you go
  9. Just modified a different scenario : Syria, daylight, and in this scenario the Tomcat DOES get launched. Got a feeling I know what going on my Kola scenario : I have a S-3B that's getting launched before me and my wingman, got the feeling this is screwing up the launch.
  10. I tried it : No response on radio menu salute. Binded catapult salute to a knob on 1 of my controllers : This works for being guided from the start position on carrier to the ramp, yet when your in the launch position : no response (aka no launch)
  11. I'll give it a go, thanks.
  12. Early morning , Kola map , on local time (07:45 december 2024) so still dark. I had the lights on the F-14B on, except taxi. Lights were on bright. Tried every thing now : Mil power (nozzle gauge 0) Full afterburner Flaps down, flaps up. Nothing nada zero : no launch.
  13. I don't know if this a issue with the Super Carrier module or the Heatblur F-14A/B module, so I'm gonna put it here : Looovvveee the new deckcrew, but I'm hittinh a problem I can't figure out what teh cause could be. So up to launch I'm doing the same as I use to do with the F-14 : Taxi, being guided to CAT 1, wings out, flaps down, launch bar kneel, drive over cat , stop, tension catapult and getting signal from the shooter to throttle up, and salute : This is were it goes wrong. Even at full throttle (in afterburner) and saluting (I tried saluting in the comms menu and using the keybinding, the shooter just keeps giving the signal to throttle up : he won't launch. Then I tried it with the F/A-18C : works like a charm. So am I doing something wrong or is it a Super Carrier/Heatblur F-14 A/B bug ? (I've bin searching the forum last night and this morning and I haven't found any topic reporting the same issue I'm having)
  14. Thanx (wouldn't know how to mod if it would save my life) I just noticed the keybindings for the radar altimeter aren't working as well ? (radar control increase and decrease)
  15. Hopefully someone here can tell me : I'm looking for the keybinding for adjusting the baro/pressure (Servopneumatic Altimeter). Yet I can't find it Is there a keybinding implemetend for adjusting ?
