how do you get half off your first purchase in standalone?
Skwirl865 replied to Skwirl865's topic in New User Briefing Room
Yep. I did. That’s crazy that somehow that robs you of your discount just because u decided to switch on your own. -
What countermeasures program do you use in the Viper?
Skwirl865 replied to Sneeki's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
I do mine the same way, chaff only program or flare only program is the wall dispense but instead of mapping cms left, right or aft, I mapped program knob cw and ccw to the left and right directions so I can switch programs without going head down. -
The Arctic freezer liquid coolers are amazing. I think they’re tested as the best performing. No rgb and they have a small fan on the block that blows air onto your vrms. also one of the less expensive of the high quality options. Check em out.

Afterburner detent swich F16
Skwirl865 replied to Falcon34200's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
It depends on what hotas you’re using or rather you’re willing to use 3rd party mapping programs. Some hotas software supports it with their own but if not, u may have to use 3rd party software like joystick gremlin. I only know how to do it in the software from virpil and the vkb software because those are the stick and throttle companies for my stuff. -

In-Game Scratchpad Mod Available - Works Great In VR!

i cant get it to pull up. idk if i installed it right or not. -
I just got my throttle about a month ago, updated to the newest firmware amd software and while there were some differences, I was still able to get my encoders set to work quite well for radar elevation and hmd brightness knob in the f-16. I agree that a refresh would be nice but I wouldn’t have posted the video if it hadn’t just worked so well for me and I’m not only brand new to dcs but brand new to pc gaming all together. Dcs is my first and only game and this is my first time setting up controllers in software. I figured if I can figure it out as clueless as I am, anyone can. either way, it couldn’t hurt to watch. bound to learn something helpful from it

What kind of controller?

Made all the difference for me. Thank u for taking the time to make them. I’m subscribed so if u make more, I won’t miss them. mom hoping for a joystick gremlin deep dive at some point in the future.

At minute 8:05 but I highly recommend watching all his videos. They helped me greatly. https://youtu.be/ZtgR6HUJE6U

Sometimes in tws if I bug say 3 targets with tms right, I can cycle through them and everything but if I lose lock and they disappear off the radar, once they reappear, I can only bug one. I’ve tried it with tms up trying to bug them individually and with tms right to bug them all. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

Just checked and replied. Sorry for the wait.

Where do new players go to meet and fly with new players?
Skwirl865 replied to Skwirl865's topic in New User Briefing Room
I’ve got srs installed and configured(I think) but I can’t be sure it’s configured because I’ve never had a chance to use it. I’ve only used discord a couple of times and that was when I was on a server when I first got the fc3 pack. I can’t say I disagree about social media. I often ponder that myself yet I still participate in it fairly regularly. couldn’t tell u why tho lol I have srs, I just haven’t used it yet. -
The t1600m’s haven’t had much use. Amd the x52 has the same jitters as most of em. I used joypro to elevate the problem but I found it even better to just use the pinky button as a modifier when I used the sliders and rotaties. It just flowed perfectly that way. I bought a gladiator nxt and a virpil cm2 so needless to say, they’re just laying around here. I want a virpil base and a constellation alpha so maybe getting rid of some of this stuff can get me on the path to getting one or the other. I also have an asus x470 plus gaming motherboard if anybody needs one. Not to picky about the price on that. It’s just collecting dust as well.

I have an extra laying around taking up space.

I have the cm2 myself with a vkb gladiator nxt stick. I have a couple t-1600 sticks and an x52 I’ve retired. Is yours the warthog stick or one of the other tm sticks?
-
Thats the price for both? That’s not bad at all! I have the virpil mounts but they stick out a lot farther from the desk which isn’t bad but puts your screen father away.

Thank you! On my way there now.
