Ready

Thanks! Will give it a go and report back. In the meantime I have Vaicom's TX Link option working, as explained in the manual pages 23-26 (with 200ms setting instead of 100msec, because otherwise it is hit/miss), but it is a bit weird using short presses to toggle Listen/suspend in order to talk to AI or DCS.

Yes I put the mod in the wrong folder. It must be in the DCS core folder, not in saved games. It works now. I am now just looking for a configuration that resembles some sort of reality. I would like to have large circles and still be able to look at the instruments from under the NVG. Anybody got something working like that?

I can't get this NVG mod to work in my G2 headset in the latest Open.Beta. Followed the instructions. Anybody else using this mod in VR?

TOT should not be an issue here. Are you looking at the right waypoint? Adjust the TOT for the right one, it should be doable with a normal INS alignment. I did not made it once because of some messing about and got my a&# chewed out by Overlord or something like that.

Thanks for the tip but, setting the same button (Mic.Fwd) to Radio 10 and modifier (button 'x') to radio 10 Modifier does not help. Radio 1 still broadcasts when pushing Mic.Fwd, also when first using button 'x'.

But then when you press the Mic.Fwd in order to talk on SRS Radio 1, the DCS comms menu also opens up, right? How to get this done without the DCS menu opening up?

Yes I went through exactly the same ordeal. I also started out wanting to get rid of the comms menu while talking on SRS. At the moment I use the DCS comms mainly for my AAR practices. So I did the same as you, having the mic press button for DCS. This way I can order DCS to go through menu options, but am not able to TX on the right radio freq to call out 'approaching for refuel' for example. I now have to press the mic and then navigate through the menu until I reach the right command, which is a pain in the *(& especially with lots of 'ready precontacts' . Am going into the JTAC side of things in a couple of weeks and there it will be the same nightmare..

Hi I am having an issue with Vaicom in combination with SRS. I am trying to be able to both talk to SRS on 3 radios and to DCS on 3 radios, using my HOTAS mic switch and without talking on both channels. I would like to be able to talk to the DCS comms without SRS listening and I would like to talk to SRS without DCS listening. My understanding was to inside DCS remove all HOTAS Mic bindings and inside the Vaicom profile in VoiceAttack add a modifier to use for the TX presses and releases for the AM, UHF and FM radios. This almost seems to work: ModifierButton + Mic.Fwd -> DCS TX on the Fwd radio. Mic.Fwd -> SRS transmits on the Fwd and does nothing within DCS. But, how do I now stop SRS from listening when I use the modifier? It is also transmitting in SRS when I use the modifier. Anybody having a config that works okay? Thanks,

It is somehow not working for me. Inside DCS I removed all HOTAS Mic bindings and in my Vaicom profile in VoiceAttack I added a modifier to use for the TX presses and releases for the AM, UHF and FM radios, which works: ModifierButton + Mic.Fwd -> DCS TX on the Fwd radio. Mic.Fwd -> SRS transmits on the Fwd and does nothing within DCS. But now how do I stop SRS from listening when I use the modifier? It is also transmitting in SRS when I use the modifier. Thanks,

Hi I am having a strange issue which I am not able to tackle. I am running the DCS updater Build 7.1.2021 and have two slots with DCS Open.Beta Builds. They are basically the same (copied) builds, but with the distinction; #1 - All Mods enabled #2 - Clean - Only IC Pass mods enabled I am using OVGME to add/remove the Mods. The strange thing is that for both slots the folder paths are correct in the App.Settings tab (green status), but for some reason DCS is not recognizing the mods that are installed in Slot #1. When I remove and re-add the mods with OVGME, it does not work. How can I troubleshoot this? Thanks for the help

VRK is also giving me issues with the G2 inside multiplayer. Did a 4-ship formation training tonight and everytime I opened the kneeboard it messed with my frames. It somehow is also very hard for my eyes to switch focus when moving eyesight between the kneeboard and the CDU (within A-10C). I repositioned the kneeboard, resized it, changed the height, pitch and angle of the kneeboard to perfectly align with the CDU and to make it as readable as posible. But it stays weird and messy. Also experience jaggies in the kneeboard's horizontal lines. Will circle back to my Vaicom Kneeboard, which is for me personally is much easier for the eyes, even though it can not be angled and positioned like VRK can.

Great tool! Is there an option to hide all buttons/tabs/menu's, just to have the kneeboard page(s) only in sight? It otherwise takes up a lot of real estate. Thanks

Thanks!

Could somebody please help me. I have never got the TACAN or ILS sounds to work on my radio's. Both are working with regards to the range and bearing etc, but the beeps I never hear. I have volume up. Thank you,

Fantastic video.

I found that sometimes Lalt + C also brought back the cursor. Will try the masking tape on the sensor. I don't like the behavior of my pc when I am putting on/taking off the G2. Sometimes I have to peek from under the headset and it is a pain.

Have quite a few modules, but only really fly the A10CII. There is so much to learn with this one.

Yes I want to also start doing some TACAN Navigation, hope it is going to work.

What a fantastic resource! Many thanks for sharing, it is a big help. Is there an updated version by any chance? Cheers

Hi while flying a MEZUS STAR BRAVO approach into Aktotiri (LCRA) I encounter a TACAN issue. I guess it might be a generic issue, but could not find other postings. While flying the 72degrees heading from MEZUS I make the right turn at the 15NM distance to intercept the 13d arc of this approach. However once reaching the turning point and making the turn, the distance counter on the HSI freezes up. Only toggling the T/R switch on the TACAN panel off/on makes it find the distance again. TACAN is switched on, set to 107X, and T/R. Running latest Open Beta, flying A10-CII

okay thanks

Thanks for the tips. Yes fair point about the attitude, except I play this campaign just for entertainment and as a trainer it is ineffective in my case, just because I have little spare time and it takes too long to get to the actual learning situation since I first have to go through 30 minutes of the same storyline, overhead circling etc. To train dealing with manpads I set up a lesson mission in a valley with low overcast and scattered manpads and just flew through it a bunch of times using rockets and gun. yes thanks, that works.

Hi, Within a MP session I can only see other A-10's inside the TAD and HMCS. Is it possible to see other friendly flights, like 16's and 18's in the TAD and HMCS? I think in single player this works. Thanks,

So again got a stinger up my ()*&&(* from a manpad after flying around for quite a bit in the next mission, while heading back out, just after taking out a small convoy and some dudes in a field. Did a hard break to dodge the first, but the second one got me. Quite unsatisfying that I have to fly it again and do all that travelling, waiting and circling before the fun starts. At least now I know where they are spawning. Will use the CMS manual Charlie program next time. I guess I am also going to create a mission with a valley full of manpads and put some strafing targets in, just to train a bit of dodging.

Replayed it. Yes you are right, I don't know why the freq was changed. What a downer the outcome of that mission..
