As far as I know, the A10C is a military-to-civilian mod. It chopped off some of its functions and went on sale. At least its functions on avionics are very complete compared to other mods. I haven't tried the F14, but at least from other people's comments, I know that it is a well-deserved masterpiece by HB. As for our F18... You know our complaints come from the love of this fighter. F18 has many unfinished functions and bugs that affect the game experience. We have no idea of the progress of these things, and ED has been opening up new projects. Therefore, the development of F18 functions has been occupied by other projects. For example, CCIP inaccuracy bug. JDAM's LOFT mode, the terminal options for other GPS weapons have not continued to develop. And the radar that has been somewhat problematic (lack of sufficient public information). By and large, the F18 is fine for executing player-written missions, but if you fly for a year, you're bound to encounter bugs. So sometimes I get really mad at why ED doesn't stop to fix bugs and develop unfinished features. But sometimes, think about it and... Forget it, at least it can fly. I guess this is how most players feel about F18 When you first start playing this game, you will feel like this is an simulator. But if you play it long enough, you realize it's just a game.

If he likes multiplayer, then F18 If not, then I think both can be Personally, I never play single player mode. In multiplayer, the A10 is slow and can only perform DEAD tasks, so you won't make it your main choice. I generally don't use the A10 unless it's an organized, specialized task. But on the other hand, the A10 is by far the best simulated aircraft. In contrast, the F18 has too many problems in functional simulation. It's definitely worth a try, depending on how much effort you can put into it. But before that, has he tried to learn to drive a Su25T?

If you stay in the forum long enough, you'll find that all the posts about unreleased feature will be moved to wishlist

For me, the characters in AMPCD are just too hard to read. A10C For each string of characters, there is a rectangular black background. But in F18C, there is only a black font outline, and AMPCD is located below, and you have to look down every time, which makes the map function of AMPCD very difficult to use. So, in the past, I have put the HSI page on the right DDI. Until recently, I got a new screen and can now put the AMPCD on the secondary screen via Helios and it's a lot clearer. How do you choose?
-
I currently especially need the SLEW function of HSI, because I really want to completely get rid of the dependence on F10

Resolution setting problem
FrostLaufeyson replied to FrostLaufeyson's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I'm just to lazy to change the resolution between 1440p and 1080p -
The landing we all know...but taxi on a carrier..

I wander to know if our supercarriers have a chance to become like this one day -
investigating AGM-84E cannot change FOV after slewed
FrostLaufeyson posted a topic in Bugs and Problems
Before slew, there is no problem with changing the FOV, but once you slewed, the FOV cann't be changed anymore. This only happens with SLAM, SLAM-ER works fine for this part. SLAM cannot change FOV after SLEW.trk -
Since my post is marked "cannot reproduce", I think I'll just upload the trk file https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nwShJ5afS7AaRJZdLoxwojFZ3LEJQt_x/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FCE8W4RLO4bqqZjBYZ0RligjI9EuXopJ/view?usp=sharing In the tacview file, I left the formation and turned to the carrier at 22:07, shortly after that the TCN and ICLS disappeared. @BIGNEWYMy flight leader still have the same problem when watching the full trk file, so I hope you can take a look when you free

You're right, but we were all panicking and all we can think of is to contact ATC. No one remembered radar. And unfortunately, it was a fleet at the time, we don't know which one is carrier, and the visibility was so low, that even if we know, it would be difficult to land on your own. In other words, when you see an aircraft carrier, it means you're going to crash on it. This is an retreat mission. We have no other place to land.

When you move the TDC from the TGP to the MAVF page, the TGP will pass a static coordinate to the MAVF, and the MAVF's rotation speed is too slow, so it often fails to lock the target you want, and you must switch to the TGP again. Then switch to MAVF, and then perform cage and uncage

Resolution setting problem
FrostLaufeyson replied to FrostLaufeyson's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Failed, in that case, the resolution of the game is 3840*1080, all compressed to my 2560*1440 monitor. I don't have any graphics on my laptop -
Situation 1. I have a screen with a resolution of 2560*1440 2. My laptop is 1920*1080 resolution 3. If DCS runs at 2560*1440, the frame rate will be very low 4. I want to keep the display resolution of 2560*1440 5. I want DCS to keep 1920*1080 resolution in 2560*1440 resolution, but this will make DCS a window 6. If the full screen option is forced to be checked under 1920*1080, it will cause me to switch SRS, TS and other windows very troublesome. 7. How to make DCS maintain a resolution of 1920*1080 in a display with a resolution of 2560*1440, and be able to maintain a full screen without borders? Supplement: 1. I use Helios to make the notebook as a secondary screen to display the content of AMPCD in F18 2. I know how to set up Helios at 2560*1440+1920*1080 so that my main screen displays DCS and the secondary screen displays AMPCD. The specific idea is shown in the figure below

Short: During the approach, the TCN and ICLS were suddenly ineffective, but the ACLS was still good. Long: This is a multiplayer mission with two teams of F16s and two teams of F18s on a cloudy and foggy night. The two teams of F18s were supposed to land on CVN-71 and CVN-74 respectively. Under the guidance of ATC, we captured the Tacon signals of the two aircraft carriers in the dark and prepared to carry out the CASE III recovery procedure. Radio, TACAN, ICLS, Link 4 are all set up correctly and everything works fine. But as I was approaching, all of a sudden, Tacon and ICLS were disconnected. The ICLS symbol in the HUD disappears and the Tacan bearing indicator in the HSI starts to circle. I can still radio with the carrier, and the ACL page continues to function normally, but without bearing guidance, I have absolutely no way of knowing where I am relative to the carrier. At this time, the visibility at low altitude is only about 0.3 nautical miles. All relying on ATC through LotATC, who switched channels in TeamSpeak to guide us and we landed safely. That was really a tough night. Strictly speaking, I don't want to report a bug, because I can't reproduce it in a single player environment, and the trk file(54mb) and the acmi file(9mb) are too large, and no one will want to look at it. And almost every time you perform a large multiplayer mission, there will be some unexpected bugs that affect everyone's experience. Admittedly, it's a fun to be able to handle this kind of accident when it happens. But no one wants to run into this tricky situation again in the days to come. I just wanted to put a post here to see if you have encountered a similar situation.

remove user modes and repair HUD Font way too small/thin..need help.
FrostLaufeyson replied to nerves's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
As far as I know, the problem is caused by WinWing, but I don't know the exact details either. I happened to have the same problem and was told the solution by another player who owns WinWing. This happens when I try to turn off WinWing's lighting control and lua control -

If yous is steam version, just right click the game in steam and go to properties, under the DLC tab you can uncheck items you want to uninstall I don't know how the official version works, but Google should be able to find a way -

If you are using WinWing HOTAS, try delete F18 mod and intall it again It should be fixed -
correct as-is The annoying ADVs and WARNs on left DDI
FrostLaufeyson replied to FrostLaufeyson's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
It seems that the default SCS logic is correct, that is, AZ/EL on the left, SA on the bottom I have to force a change in my habit, which I did because I didn't like the default SA at the bottom. The information on the AMPCD is harder to read because I am sitting farther away from my display and the display is not large enough -
When I go to a PVP server and practice BVR fights, I get used to putting the SA page on my left DDI. This usually creates a lot of problems, you see, you try to keep accelerating, trying to get an energy advantage. But this will cause FPAS to fail to calculate the HOME FUEL, and an ADV-FPAS prompt will appear. This prompt not only blocks your chaff and flare count display, but also blocks the bandit information display. I skimmed through the NATOPS Flight Manual and it only seemed to mention that the prompts could be moved to another screen only when the left DDI was closed or disabled. I haven't found a way to manually transfer these prompts to another screen. How did you deal with these prompts? I don't like putting SA pages on AMPCD because it's really inconvenient to bow your head in a BVR fight.

It cools down slowly when it's not moving. It is difficult to see the heat source clearly in the wilderness. Is it so difficult to see in reality?

I followed the advice of some people and gave the tank a "penalty run" for 10 minutes, and then it differentiated itself from the tanks that didn't move The mission start time is 13:00. In the picture, I used GMT mode to lock the only moving tank. I don't know when the obvious change started. A new question has arisen, how to make the vehicle get very hot when it is spawned?
