Many good things but PLEASE bring back the autohover
Ian Boys UK replied to Ian Boys UK's topic in SA-342M Gazelle
I'm not joking. You basically have to trim it out, first roughly then using the hat switch for fine trim. But that neat hiding behind a building and just poking your sight over the top won't really work now if you're trim all the trim while using the periscope. And I have no springs in my stick so it's really difficult. On the plus side I got some first periscope kills in the open Sinai desert! -
The new flight model and trim modes are probably good in multicrew but for us single crew players who hop between seats, please bring back the autohover so we can get a HOT3 off the rails in a stable fashion. Also the auto collective. I know it doesn't exist in reality but I'm just one guy trying to do both! Please please! And please bring back the Autohover Word on the controls display. Lastly, the turn towards target function often messes up or cancels the pedal trim and starts a bad spin.

JTAC unresponsive in multiplayer, both ST and MT...
Ian Boys UK replied to Callsign JoNay's topic in Multiplayer Bugs
That's a bit different: you're talking about two JTACs etc, I'm talking about 2 humans trying to listen to them. But yes, probably related. -
Mi-24 Random Engine Fire - need help investigating
Ian Boys UK replied to Cr33p3r's topic in DCS: Mi-24P Hind
Are you actually turning the Dust protector on?? Sand will cause engine fires. -
JTAC unresponsive in multiplayer, both ST and MT...
Ian Boys UK replied to Callsign JoNay's topic in Multiplayer Bugs
That's interesting. Here's a mission where we can't talk to the JTAC. He is on 133MHz and we are calling from Apaches. It does work if we run it as single player. It rarely works if we run it as a multiplayer server and never if there are 2 Apaches tuned to the freq. MULTI Caucasus West.miz -

Not fixed, works in SP, not in MP -
Just flew as pilot and let George shoot - at very slow speeds (like 17 mph) he scored hits every time. Seems you cant run in with the Lima like with the Kilo.

Co-ordinates and the JTAC - no good for F-16
Ian Boys UK replied to Ian Boys UK's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
Thank you. I had to try it a few times but I got it working too. -

Ian Boys UK replied to Ian Boys UK's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
These methods aren't working for me any more. Can anyone successfully enter MGRS into the Viper please? -
Works ok if I am in front seat. But George now misses half his shots.

correct as-is RF 114L curving a lot in flight
Ian Boys UK replied to Ian Boys UK's topic in DCS: AH-64D
Oh we finally have a weapon that can take out Tunguskas NICE!! -
correct as-is RF 114L curving a lot in flight
Ian Boys UK replied to Ian Boys UK's topic in DCS: AH-64D
Ah thank you. It didn't work as I expected but I thought it was probably me just not knowing. Appreciated. -
I'm not saying this is a bug at all because I don't know how the real ones work but the RF Hellfires do a big lateral curve in flight, shooting off to the left or right before curving back towards the target, even in a mission with no wind. Is there a reason I don't know about? Track attached 114L curve.trk

I'm in the Viper, game running normally. I open the screen to adjust a control keybind and the game freezes up. I can still move cursor on the screen but the blue screen with all the controls doesn't move/react to any input, nor can I close it.

Thank you

Please help - after I fire my first 530, the radar stays illuminated for a long time and I can't use it for a second 530 or even a follow up Magic shot. Is there a radar reset button once the first 530 hits please?
-
Cheers. Here you are. Outgoing and incoming fire and visibility through trees. Petrovich and the Invisible Trees.trk
-
Both the Apache CP/G and Petrovich in the Hind can see through all the trees and send Hellfires and Shurm through them. This means they can see objects that are totally invisible to the player. But in a Gazelle you can't see anything but the AI ground units will see and fire at you as though the trees aren't there at all.

fixed Damage Issue - Tail shot off but tail rotor works
Ian Boys UK replied to FalcoGer's topic in Bugs and Problems
As you can see from the screenshot, my tail was shot off but the tail rotor was still there and I had absolutely full control and was able to carry out several further attacks. As the game assumed I was dead, nobody fired back. Only happened once - every other time, no tail = crash. -
Co-ordinates and the JTAC - no good for F-16
Ian Boys UK replied to Ian Boys UK's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
Just tried that and it works! Chuck's guide suggested it couldn't be edited but it does work, although it's so complicated. Thank you! -
The JTAC only gives co-ords in MGRS, which we cannot enter into the F-16. Would it be possible to have him give Lat/Long when we contact him please?
