I agree. I meant to include the above re: a new kit from the same package. -

I received the same advice about using two sticks of the same make and production date vice mixing up 4 even if they are the same brand bought at different times. -

One of the best things about DCS is the passionate community. One of the worst things about DCS is the passionate community. I hope it all works out, but if it doesn’t… I’m basically $ out of pocket for the equivalent of one night’s Chinese takeout. Life goes on. -
PIMAX 8K Cables and Crystal Super Question for PIMAX Team
Tophatter14 replied to Devil 505's topic in Pimax
Touching video. Thanks for sharing. But remember, wings back for the break… always. -
Any chance ED can follow up on the infinite chaff/flares the AI have? Or is it enabled if a player enables unlimited weapons for player aircraft?

F14 not authorized / antivirus / false positive
Tophatter14 replied to Semaphore's topic in Bugs and Problems
If you set up a symbolic junction to another drive just for updates as linked below (due to drive size limits), don't forget to add that downloads folder to your windows security scan exclusion list. -
No luck for me. Took an STT F-3, down to the deck, in the beam, quite literally in the trees, full chaff dispense with full ECM, just below supersonic, was able to defeat his first missile...and his second missile still got me. Which means he probably maintained radar lock the whole time. Because I never saw him maneuver to defeat my shot, with tally on his contrails. Yeah. Sometimes DCS is far too generous to the AI. Still a good JDAM mission. BUT- Skip and onto the next mission for this guy. Not worth the aggravation factor haha

How do I see the debriefs?

Just had the same HD space issue. Had to trim the fat of non-essential stuff lol Edit:

I'm using over the ear Steelseries Arctis Nova 7 cans. Fit comfortably for me, YMMV.

Same here, identical experience.

investigating tacan issue Mission 6 Experiences
Tophatter14 replied to Ready's topic in A-10C Iron Flag Part I Campaign
For the public record, I think Baltic makes the best campaigns for DCS in the world. -
Thanks for the clarification. It’s a great model. Not to be “that guy” but my old F-5 VFC buddies would be the first to say that they aren’t ‘aggressor pilots’ they are ‘adversary pilots.’ Air Force versus Navy semantic difference I know. But they get touchy about it lol

Excellent video - thanks for sharing. -

I can’t imagine the frustration third-party developers must feel having to revisit their work every time Eagle dynamics puts out an update. -
@baltic_dragon I'm very sorry to say that I'm having immense difficulties playing this campaign due to all of the communications issues, static, typos, scripted errors that DCS updates have inserted into your campaign. DM incoming.

Mission 3 Review - Finally Completed Mission!
Tophatter14 replied to TripleTapper's topic in A-10C Iron Flag Part I Campaign
For anyone who runs into issues with this: dial in the airfield TACAN channel (found on kneeboards or the f10 map view) and switch to TCN mode on your HSI. I agree, an excellent training campaign. Learning a LOT about the A-10C. -

Tophatter14 replied to PawlaczGMD's topic in F-16C Dragon's Fury Campaign
I experienced the same thing on headphones in VR. Recordings were borderline painful loud. I do have hear like helmet selected. Also a weird glitch in mission 1 - I couldn’t close the canopy using the normal DCS shortcut. Exited game- launched a quick instant action mission and it worked. Went back into the game. Shortcut didn’t work. Strange. -
I’m having the same issue. Hopefully a software update fixes it, but we know how that goes.
-
Just wanted to check- it sounds like this issue happens if player uses a GBU instead of LMAV on the first attack of the convoy. Is this in the next update/fix? Just happened to me like above. Ghost says "send it" and then...nothing.
-
I second this. Got a cheap tablet and using openkneeboard is a force multiplier- definitely recommend!
-
This thread has just convinced me to give it a try as well. MSAA x 4 user as I find the ghosting / motion blur very distracting in DLAA …if I get good results, I’ll report back.

What does the Quad Views setting in DCS VR do?
Tophatter14 replied to sleighzy's topic in Virtual Reality
Also quest pro with a 4090. Any chance you could PM me as well? I’d appreciate it just to compare. I’m pretty sure I can get more performance out of this bad boy lol
