Howdy fellows, I decided to revisit LUA after a few years and, since I'll need some interesting stuff to enhance my self-motivation, I've concluded that tackling MOOSE would be a good choice. I'm following FlightControl's tutorials on youtube and thought that Visual Studio Code would be useful. Looking for instructions on how to implement MOOSE in VSC, I didn't find anything current - only this instructions Does anyone know an up-to-date content that shows how to implement MOOSE in Visual Studio Code? thanks

Indeed, but while ED doesn't fix the issue, I've read mission creators use a few workarounds. I was just checking if there was one from Sedlo. Update: I endured mission 3 and, in mission 4, AI wingman behaved well. I'll post here how the next one goes.

First of all: thank you @Sedlo for creating and maintaining the campaign. I'm flying the 3rd mission and, when we are flying towards CAP1, the AI wingman keeps flooding the tac channel with the same report over and over (350 for 150 - very annoying). I stopped flying it, because I don't know If changing the freq, so I don't listen to the AI, will "break the mission". Is there anything else I can do to enlighten this pest, that has probably slept during the class, in AI pilot school, when they taught radio discipline? I was considering opening the mission in ME, but I'd like no spoilers - I enjoy not knowing what is coming to the player. So, here I am, bothering you :- )

thanks

Howdy, Baltic Dragon, I've recently started playing the RO campaign and, so far, my perception is positive. Congrats However, I'm facing the multiple bort numbers issue - I believe as a consequence from the last DCS update - checking the description.lua I've noticed the old livery structure and searching the forum I've found this post. Does it mean that a fix will be pushed with the next DCS update or do I have to download something from somewhere?

is there info somewhere if they are working to fix this issue?

I'm definitely curious... don't forget to share once you find out whats is happening

Just to make sure, you`re engaging AP barometric (BALT) and not (RALT), right? and there`s nothing interfering with altimeter settings ...

I guess I've failed on exposing the problem clearly. the issue is: under the same conditions, with the mission QNH adjust, my hornet displays baro alt different from other modules. (and from what is displayed at the F2 or F10 view) Thanks Hulkbust. yes 1in is equal to 1000ft, but don't focus too much attention to it - I inserted that info to illustrate the gradual offset of the altimeter | the gist is: same atmospheric conditions, same QNH setting -> the Hornet is displaying different altitude than other modules flying under the same conditions. Thanks for the reply, Fresh. DCS trying to simulate the real "conditions" is one of the things that we like so much. I know that, same as the real world counterparts, the altimeters in DCS can be adjusted for pressure, but not for temperature variation and this is a risk factor. Up north, you will find approach plates indicating the need to "Apply altitude corrections for cold temperatures." However, the issue I`m pointing is, regardless of the mathematical model used to simulate atmospheric effects, every plane altimeter, at the same conditions, using the same altimeter setting, should indicate the same altitude. (unless altimeter error is modeled differently from aircraft to aircraft) It could be intentional or not, but IMO, this bug* could cause vertical separation issues between packages containing different type of planes. *or not Anyways, let's see if there are other points. ------- I tested flying with a friend and the conclusion is that the issue is not the hornet - it`s the MudHen F16, F14 and FA18C are all showing acceptable altitude under the conditions above. The F15E is not - since it is a relative new module they will probably fix that in a future patch. Thanks for the input Hulkbust and Fresh.

Howdy I`m not sure if this is from a recent update or I haven`t noticed it before, but the baro alt int the hornet appears to be slightly incorrect. With the Kollsman window showing the 29.92 adjust for the mission I briefly created (QNH 29.92), I`ve followed these steps: At 5000ft RDR, over the ocean, I switched ALT source from RDR to BARO - there was a significant difference in reading and +0.07 inHg was needed to to correct it I repeated the situation at 1000ft RDR and +0.01 inHG was needed to correct at 40000ft, 680ft difference from altitude displayed in F2 screen (that`s more than 1 inHg correction). Just to make sure, I got another plane (F15E) and, at 40k, difference was insignificant. An altimeter that much off would be a No GO. I`ve searched the forum before posting, but did not locate a thread about it. Does anyone have the same problem?

Did you change your dead zone to zero? If not, try it.

Hi Mahany, I know you have received a lot of info already, but I`ll be concise and add my POV. If your controls are well centered and there are no spikes, use a ZERO dead zone. Your Dead zone 4 combined with 20% curves will increase the PIO and make AAR much harder. If you have time try this: set your dead zone to ZERO do not use trim switch for AAR ... once the basket is extended and you're in position for the AAR: set your speed 2-4 kt higher than the tanker`s and work only the stick (really small movements). After connection work the throttle. and, of course, post your impressions here. I do believe you will perceive the task as more amicable and the problem you described will be in the past.

Howdy! I was experimenting with ME trying to get the cloud base at 1200ft MSL, so VFR penetration would not be at hand and CASE II recovery would be used. Cloud base slider doesn`t allow lower altitudes and I could not find the settings for dew point to fine tune it. Is this possible? Has anyone succeeded creating a realistic CASE II recovery?

Howdy! Search didn`t produce results, so I'm posting... For case I recovery, lead should form the flight in right echelon prior to initial (getting ready for kiss off | break). AI is not flying right echelon correctly. #3 and #4 are in position, but #2 is sucked messing up the 45o line. It worked in the past

The ticket was under his name, that's could not find it. He received a reply on may 30th. I wanted him to have a positive experience. So, on the 24th, I paid using my credit card. it was a start with the wrong foot, but I hope he will appreciate dcs as much as we do. thanks for the reply, Maximov

Hello all, I thought my uncle, who`s a retired pilot, would enjoy flying DCS World and convinced him to give it a try. In order to make things smoother I`ve created an account for him, installed the software on his computer and made him order the PG map and a FA18C to start - 50% first buy discount made sense. The problem is that a "The processing of the transaction has failed. Please try again later or contact your card issuer" error popped up every time we tried to pay for the order. After trying again later and with different cards, we contacted the issuer who informed us that no request for payment was made from ED or other. Next day, same thing and those cards work on other sites. I inferred the problem was on ED ecommerce side and opened a ticket (may 17th). The ticket didn`t receive a reply yet and I`m not able to "try again" that payment because the order has expired (3 days deadline) due to lack of payment. Does anyone know if there are issues at ED that would be preventing them from expanding the customer base or replying to tickets? Is there another channel to reach sales?

Is this mod working fine with the hornet, after the last update? I`m considering it.

thank you I`ll give it a try this sunday

Howdy, Is there a way do add (attach) a static object to a "tracked" one? We could use it to: - mark position of an acft in a formation. If this added object, a box for instance, is attached to the flight leader, we could visually check the position of the acfts maneuvering in formation - check boundaries - carrier marshal stack - control cone during BFM

Howdy If I read right, GIMP now supports .dds. However, it's not able to open BC7 mode. Is there a solution that is more indicated than this one? (use textconv.exe and a script to run it via gimp) thanks

Has anyone created a good PAR (Precision Approach Radar) TWR Guidance mission? I tried to locate one, but didn't succeed

somebody? nobody? Bueller?

Thanks for the answer Rudel. Any ideas about the OP? Ports are forwarded and the server even appears on the x51squadron list, but doesn`t show on the clients wannabe dcs MP servers list. Any idea on how to test if ports are being closed at my providers end? even with firewall disabled, port checker shows 10308, 10309, 443 as closed

Apparently this is a issue for some people. Any ideas on how to test if the "block" is on my service provider? maybe said provider is closing some necessary port

Hello all, I've found a couple of tutorials on how to make/use a customized cockpit texture and another on how to alter the BUNO for the FA-18C. I don't know if they got obsolete with the constant patching or something else, but they didn`t work. Even some liveries available for download that theoretically alter the BUNO number aren`t working. I was planning to change a few things on the cockpit, but couldn`t locate a source that provided the knowledge needed. At present is it possible to alter the cockpit texture? if so, can someone recommend a tutorial that will work with the current version?
