  1. That's correct Medic. The "China Hat" is a 3 way switch witch defaults to the middle and can be pulled back or pushed forward.
  2. No, but close: Without using marks: Slew/Zoom/Point Track TGP to target Set as SPI Switch to MAV MFD SOI China Hat Forward Long to slew Mav to SPI TMS Up Short to track Fire Back to TGP MFD SOI and repeat all steps With using marks: Slew/Zoom/Point Track TGP to target Create a bunch of marks Switch to Mark mode on your waypoints selector switch Switch to MAV MFD SOI DMS Up Short to switch to next mark China Hat Forward Long to slew Mav to SPI TMS Up Short to track Fire Repeat as needed
  3. For Zoom I used the little grey slider on the side rather than the black physical friction knob at the top which changes how the throttles move. As sobek said, use Assign Axis button on the bottom of Options/Controls to set it.
  4. If you bought the beta you get the full game. Just download it from the official website and use your current key which should be displayed on that link once you log in.
  5. A 4 digit grid is the same as "There's targets over yonder! *points*" :joystick:
  6. As well done as those mods and conversions are, a DCS quality level F-16 sim would totally overshadow all of them. The quality levels with each of those is so varied that it's distracting and all of them "feel" old to me. Not to mention for someone new coming into the mods they have to track down and buy a 13 year old, out of print, $60+ price gouged game just to use the new mods while at the same time not getting confused with available retail F4:AF which looks like it's the same game but won't work. All good products, but none of it compares to a DCS module.
  7. I've set the curves and in game controls fine, the problem is entirely with me. heh The main problem being that my pedals are on carpet (so slip a bit with presure) and are right up against my power bar and I'm constantly trying not to push the pedals into the bar and unplug anything! :)
  8. Sounds like you ran into the 37T vs 38T thing maybe? Remember the mission it was in or what the coords were vs the airfield you took off from?
  9. I wish there was an easier method to getting rid of the AIM-9s. Also using custom loadouts you can mount the jammer centerline on pylon 6 keeping it out of the way, though that might be a little cheaty.
  10. The official price has dropped to $39.99 now on Steam and you're going to have to download the game anyway to get the latest patch so having a DVD is becoming kind of a moot point anymore. I'd just buy it on Steam and use the license code to activate the downloaded full client from the DCS website. Burn the install to DVD to have a "physical copy" if you need one. The retail version isn't going to have anything more than that anyway.
  11. That's the problem I've been running into Speedbrake. Thinking of switching either of my toe brakes to be 'both' brakes instead of each one separate.
  12. Could always just edit the mission before playing it. :)
  13. Yeah, most of the MP missions out there I'll start with 6 Mavs, 6 GBU-12s, maybe 2-4 other things, some rockets and I'll end up having to rearm 2-3 times in a game with 3-4 other pilots. :)
  14. I'd probably just make my own flight plan using a mixture of marks I made and existing waypoints (those are accessible I think?).
  15. One of the guys I fly with is a weapons guy for A-10s and confirmed that they never fly with three Mavs on a rack anymore, it's always just two (centerline and wing side) exactly for the reason Evil.Bonsai mentioned, it would burn the tires.
  16. Why do you want to delete anyway?
  17. Running this through Google Translate comes up with: You heard it here first! :music_whistling:
  18. Don't believe you can, but you can make your own flightplan on the fly and just make that active.
  19. Found that a few weeks ago, really great show.
  20. This document pack from toby23 has a wonderful HOTAS button map: (Bold means hold/long)
  21. Should have spent $500 on the Thrustmaster Warthog and not had to deal with mapping or anything, everything would work how it's supposed to. :) DMS is used constantly for changing waypoints (up and down) and weapons (left and right). Coolie Hat is used to swap MFDs and SOI. TMS Down is used for either unlocking or setting SPI to your steerpoint, Left is used for clearing WCNs and right for making a mark.
  22. He said there was "nothing there as far as campaigns go" which was wrong. heh Besides all he wants is a dynamic campaign, which we can't do anyway, so anything else is basically just going to disappoint. :) It is a little sad there hasn't been more campaigns. I'm not sure how difficult they are to make though and do most of my flying in MP anyway.
  23. Sure there is.
  24. It sure does. My friend used to use that trick instead of rudder since he had no pedals. :)
  25. I had something similar happen to me in DCS: A-10C the other night. Turns out some other program was keeping hold of something with regards to my video card. I rebooted and all was well.
