I know right? So many valid reason for this option. Here's to hopes and dreams!

Would be nice to freeze the time of day(static sun & moon)for those of us who like to live and fly in the twilight Why? Because it's a sim and these things would be nice to simulate only because we can.

Not sure what happened but it looks like my save game folder must have become corrupted. Seem to work ok now. Sucks though. Major pain to reset everything. Oh,well. Thanks a bunch. -

I just tried changing around the NWS disengage and designate binding to different buttons and just keyboard. Same problem. -

I did a full clean and repair still no change. It seems if NWS is not disengaged before taking off this happens. I tried it several times from a hot start on ground. I have never disabled nose wheel steering before. Seems odd to me why this would now be the case. Can you reproduce it. I tried unbinding the Steering as well same prob. -

Roger that. it seems only to happen the moment the helmet display is superimposed with the HUD. I'll try a repair first and let you know. I did check for binding conflicts but will check again. -

It seems to work fine when starting in the air. Here is a track file loaded from ground start hot. No mods, as this is a fresh Window$ and DCS install. Thanks rob10. Track 1.trk dcs.log -
After designating a ground target with the helmet display, the target is lost when my HMD looks through the HUD. I used to be able to designate a ground target, look all around and it would still be designated. Now it seems I must sensor control switch it to the FLIR for it to remain designated before looking forward thru the HUD. I never had to do that before. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Thanks Foka I was ignorant regarding the order of operations regarding Advanced options. Ya I was just messing around regarding the mission settings. Will the ship keep going around again even after it gets to the last waypoint? And do you know why sometimes I see white text for some advance options and grey for others. I don't have an example but have seen this recently and not sure what that is indicating. Cheers.

It appears moving the corresponding TACAN and ILS actions up to the top of the list fixes the problem. Thanks for the help guys.
-
Right, got ya. I am aware of the radio limitations just assumed 3000ft and line of sight was fine. I did try changing to channel 20 and up to 15000ft but still nothing (before posting this thread). I did notice that the Advanced waypoint options now some appear bright white and others grey, do you know what that means? Thanks. Roger that.

I can't seem to pick up TACAN or ILS form the carrier. I have the carrier advanced action set to activate both and transmit on an assigned channel and is assigned to the appropriate group. Both have been enabled on the UFC (and HSI 'boxed') with the corresponding channel and no waypoint or weapon designation selected. The pointer in on the HSI just spins and there is no LOC or GP bars on approach. Just updated to the most recent Beta version. Never had a problem with this in the past? Has something changed in the last few months? Native ground TACAN seems to work fine. Syria.miz

Thank you sir. My error. Cheers!

Sorry for the late reply Flippie, I had sent off a ticket and was corresponding with support. I sent them, both ST an MT log file. They can't figure it out. All volume sliders are truned up. I have no other audio issues on my machine. I am educated in dedicated audio devices on windows, and use high end USB device for profession DAW applications. My drivers are rock solid. All onboard sound devices are disaabled. Audio was running flawlessly in Both ST and MT modes prior to my previous update. I have absolutly no audio in MT. ST works fine though. Have a look, maybey you can see something. I did do a fresh install and only updated to the previous Beta but no joy. Same problem. dcs.log

I can't seem to see any ground moving targets in GMT radar mode. I have four(4) enemy tanks placed and are moving at 12kts heading away from my craft (circled red). What am I missing/doing wrong here? Open Beta 2.8.6.41363, single threading.

cannnot reproduce and missing track file ATFLIR - HMD Target Designation
skybolts replied to skybolts's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Lol, yep it does seem to have a very good 'low light' camera, for those intimate encounters; that cute little f-16 on taxi Bravo -
cannnot reproduce and missing track file ATFLIR - HMD Target Designation
skybolts replied to skybolts's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Ya I guess one must do alignment even on hot start as this does rectify the problem, just a pain. I haven't tried it on an airborne start. Feels weird to alignments in the air, a bit counterintuitive. -
cannnot reproduce and missing track file ATFLIR - HMD Target Designation
skybolts replied to skybolts's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
No I did not do an alignment(hot start yes). I am not seeing this issue with the lightning pod under the exact same mission. Its pretty crappy if you want a quick helmet tag a target then fine tune the shot and the damn target is nowhere to be found when you look at the DDI (when zoomed in pretty much useless). Does anyone else even use this ATFLIR anymore? I kinda have a weird love for the symbology. -
I do not have any sound output when running Open Beta 2.8.6.41363 in multi-thread. I do have audio in single thread however. All audio settings are verified correct. It was previously working before the most recent update. I have deleted the saved games options.lua file, still no audio when running multi-thread. Anyone have any suggestions? All drivers are up to date. Tks. dcs.log
