  1. Lord Vader's post in Extreme Drag from BRU-41 with BDU-33 was marked as the answer   
    Hello @Alpha
    I've sent this for internal analysis. Thank you for your report. 
  2. Lord Vader's post in ENG CONT Switch Cover mapping doesn't work. was marked as the answer   
    Hello @d0ppler
    I just tried binding these two commands for the switch cover and had no issues doing so. I tried both a keyboard assignment as well as a joystick button, both worked opening and closing the red cover. 
    I suggest you verify you have no conflicts, for example with some external windows commands or other programs. 
    Have you tried running a repair? Another suggestion is to delete/move the assignment lua file and try rebinding (just for testing).
  3. Lord Vader's post in A/A Radar Attack Format antenna elevation carat and B-sweep swapped was marked as the answer   
    Hey @Smashy
    We've reproduced it and reported internally.
    Thanks.
  4. Lord Vader's post in DCS Launcher error after latest update was marked as the answer   
    One last request, can you please change your IPv4 address to google's 8.8.8.8?
    Got to Windows "Network And Sharing Centre" Ethernet Status -> Properties Select IP protocol version 4 (or TCP/IPv4) Under "General", select "Use the following DNS server addresses:" Write:
    Preferred DNS Server: 8.8.8.8
    Alternate DNS Server: 8.8.4.4 Don't worry, this will not affect your online connections. In fact this is considered a good "booster" in online connections for some users. But if it somehow does affect you, you can always revert back to "Obtain DNS server address automatically" in the same menu above. 
  5. Lord Vader's post in F/A-18C AFCS (autopilot) not following heading bug when HSI is in TRUE HDG was marked as the answer   
    Thank you for your reply, @Focha
    Please do not share real life documentation in our Forum. If you have any non-classified publicly available documentation to share, always prefer to send it via PM. Please consult our https://forum.dcs.world/guidelines/.
    Regarding your observation. We are aware that the manual you mention doesn't state the Pilot Relief autopilot only tracks a magnetic heading. However, that specific manual is not the only document or reference related to the F/A-18C lot 20 we're simulating. I can guarantee to you this was analysed and we are really reproducing the autopilot limitations correctly. 
    Thanks for your care.
  6. Lord Vader's post in Some internal cargo disappear after unload was marked as the answer   
    Hello @muniman69
    We are aware of this particular issue. We reported this some time ago. 
    Thanks, nevertheless. 
  7. Lord Vader's post in Wrong Instrument Panel for the CH-47F was marked as the answer   
    Hi @OhNoMyHookBroke
    I'll send this for our internal analysis. Just bear in mind we have more important tasks at the moment. 
  8. Lord Vader's post in No View.lua for 6dof/view editing was marked as the answer   
    Hello @Nealius
    Slight change for the DCS: CH-47F, the view.lua file is located in DCS World\CoreMods\aircraft\CH-47F.
    Thanks.
  9. Lord Vader's post in Electrical Ground Power - W.I.P.? was marked as the answer   
    hello @jonsky7
    Indeed the Ground Power feature is still being worked on. But thanks for bringing this to us. 
    The Ground Crew connecting ground power is a DCS core feature but, currently, it doesn't really power the aircraft electrical system.
  10. Lord Vader's post in Radar Standby CTD was marked as the answer   
    Indeed, @Alpiinoo
    This specific crash has been reported and a fix is already incoming in a future update. Sorry for the inconvenience.
    For now just avoid using these options. If you wish to place the radar in a non emitting mode, just use the RF Switch or turn the FCR off on the right hand panel. 
  11. Lord Vader's post in F16 TGP slewing away and HAD cant select targets was marked as the answer   
    Thanks @Pikey for your input.
    Indeed this had been hard to reproduce. But, so far, it appears to be caused by scripts eliminating units instead of destroying or deactivating them, which seems to be causing an issue somehow. We are continuously looking for the cause. Thank you for your patience.
  12. Lord Vader's post in F-18 stutter at the Quick mission Caucases Map - Carrier landing was marked as the answer   
    Hi @jojyrocks
    I've ran both your tracks and couldn't observe the "stutters" you mention. I also ran the instant actions missions on my own and saw a smooth fps throughout. 
    If you are experiencing performance issues, please check your settings, perhaps reduce some of the graphics options.
    You have a more than capable PC to run DCS, but perhaps you need some optimization.
    Other than that, check if you have any mods installed, disable them to try again. Also, you can try a repair or even a cleanup (available in the launcher). As a final suggestion, try deleting the FXO and Metashader folders in your Saved Games/DCS folder if the problem persists. 
  13. Lord Vader's post in Cold'n'Dark Startup: CAT I & CAT III switch with Fuel Tanks or Bombs was marked as the answer   
    Hi @kotor633
    According to our references, wing tanks do not exclusively require CAT III, neither do all air-to-air configurations require CAT I. 
    The DCS: F-16C manual has been updated recently, a very extensive update with lots of new items and correctios. However, some items may still require further corrections. Stay tuned.
  14. Lord Vader's post in Maverick Boresight issue was marked as the answer   
    Hello @NSAdonis85
    What you are seeing are the deltas added by moving the cursor to make your alignments. Try pressing TMS Aft or press "CZ" on the MFD's to zero the cursor position. 
  15. Lord Vader's post in George changes TADS back to FLIR was marked as the answer   
    I've talked internally and the change was intentional to pave the way for upcoming improvements. 
    Thanks for understanding. For now, you may need to trust George a little more.
     
  16. Lord Vader's post in [v2.9.9.2474] Enroute "Distance to Point" value calculated very wrong was marked as the answer   
    Thanks, we're analysing this situation. 
  17. Lord Vader's post in Datalink functional during RF Silent switch. Shouldn't it be disabled? was marked as the answer   
    Hello @Realizm
    When you hit that RF Silent switch, you're only quieting emissions, not reception. 
  18. Lord Vader's post in TACAN channel 4,5,6,7 Y interferes with MIDS operation was marked as the answer   
    Like mentioned before, The DCS: F/A-18C manual is to be updated soon to better represent the current module content and status. 
    We understand an outdated manual can sometimes confuse the users but we do need time to make it as accurate as possible. 
  19. Lord Vader's post in External Cargo Hook binding was marked as the answer   
    Hello @Rockrend
    That command enables the external hook as a default DCS command. This will deploy the rope down to hook on the cargo closer to the pick up zone (via External Cargo Indicator RCtrl+RShift+P)
  20. Lord Vader's post in Ammo count after spawning in multiplayer is not the same as set in the payload screen was marked as the answer   
    Hi @ConcordaRJ
    Unfortunately, I was unable to reproduce this issue. I created a simple mission with dynamic spawns, setting up a multiplayer server with it and tried to replicate exactly what you show in that video but every time I did so, it always picked my weapon selection, including ammo rounds. 
    That seems to be a complex MP server so it's hard to say exactly why that's happening on your side. Can you replicate this in a non-scripted server or hosting a mission?
    If so, let us know. 
  21. Lord Vader's post in Growth in the ramp and illuminated hook was marked as the answer   
    Hi @Anoro
    It seems you have shadows completely turned off, of course the sun will shine through the fuselage.
    As for the vegetation clipping though the fuselage, this is known issue with scenery brushes and grass, not a DCS: CH-47F specific issue. 
  22. Lord Vader's post in Hook Flies Off Wildly On Its Own After Loading Crates? was marked as the answer   
    Hello @Fakum
    In the recent past we've had a similar report related to cargo loading and some multiplayer servers running specific scripts with cargo, see here:
    In that report, the user claims pretty much the same, when loading cargo the helicopter would be somehow affected, seemed to bounce around. The user then explained that the mission was eventually updated on that server (Rotorheads) to resolve this issue.
    Although I can see the behaviour you describe on your track, in a clean mission in multiplayer I cannot reproduce this event, meaning it must also be a specific server/mission issue, much like the above situation.
  23. Lord Vader's post in 2.9.9.2280 Fuel dump effect missing was marked as the answer   
    Thanks @BJ55
    Reported internally. 
  24. Lord Vader's post in Impossible to designate DT2 target in RAID mode. was marked as the answer   
    hey @Blackfyre
    This was already known and reported, stay tuned for future updates.
  25. Lord Vader's post in HellfireL not exploding when hitting enemy Helicopters was marked as the answer   
    @tanker82
    I'm sorry but that zip file you shared just doesn't replay correctly. It's huge with 200+ MB and it appears to be from the entire server.
    Regarding the issue you describe, please try a simple mission with the same conditions and verify if you see something similar. Sometimes there could be small sync issues with telemetry that may show something like your video but, in fact, this could just have been a case of your CPG not being able to correctly track the moving target.
    Trying it on my own in a simple mission, George hit the aerial targets so we can't say this was a global issue.
    But please, if you can reproduce this in a simple, single player setup, do update us.
