Hello Badger,
DCS World is just the basis for the other modules, and it doesn't contain in itself any flyables (except SU-25T). You must also download and install the specific A-10C module (http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/modules/?PAGEN_1=2). When you start a mission with the A-10C, you will be asked to enter your activation key and you should then be good to go. Note that the DCS World is currently at version 1.2.3, so you'll probably have to download and install that version first.
Good luck,
Bart

Hi,
I had the same problem. In case clearing your cookies didn't help, try using Firefox (I was using Internet Explorer originally). That allowed me to succesfully log on and purchase.
Kind regards,

Is it wise to select the option in the options menu to load up HOTAS on startup ?
I have a x52-pro and i am constantly adapting the switches en buttons to my convenience but i don't understand that there are functions for HOTAS in the game's buttonassignments AND a different programmer with the joystick itself !
What do i use for the best ?
Hello Geert,
if you mean the "syncronize cockpit controls with HOTAS controls on mission start", as MTFDarkEagle said, it syncronises what your HOTAS (Warthog) is set to in the sim. So, on my throttle side, I have a flip switch "APU Start", if "synchonize ..." is ON, and I have my (fysical) switch set to "APU START", the sim will use this setting in-cockpit when I start a mission. If I leave the "synchronize ..." OFF, and that switch is still set to "APU START", it will show up in-cockpit as "OFF", since that is the default for that switch in the sim. Since most other HOTASes (does this sound weird ?) don't have most of those switches, it doesn't work with them.
Kind regards,
Bart

I've bought stuff from Simware, but since I live nearby, I always went over to pickup. As far as I can tell, a serious business, aimed at the sim-crowd.
If you're worried, you can e-mail them, they've always answered my queries pretty promptly.
Kind regards,
Bart

True, this sounds like pure PR. Not much real info. As I read it, an RPG might have been foiled, and even that doesn't sound to sure (tank might have caught fire, as IDF says crew was not hurt). This does not mean tank was not incapacitated, although it might be a start a defense.

Hi,
haven't gotten to "real" navigation myself, but this might be what you're looking for.

Probably a combination of different things. I remember a job posting from ED for C++ developers, when they were between LOMAC and Flaming Cliffs IIRC, but now I think you need the .Net Framework (2.0 or 3.5) installed.
I'd say they probably started with C++ and later moved to .Net, but some of the original components are probably still there. I'd hate to think of having to convert all the code for such a program to .Net.

Do you have the June 2010 version of DirectX installed (it was included in Beta 4 Full Install, but you have to select it) ?
Otherwise, could be a hardware problem. If you set Graphics to Medium or even Low, do you get an improvement in the number of missions that start ? If so, start at the lowest settings and then change settings one at a time until you have something acceptable.
Also, make sure you run both DCS.exe and Launcher.exe as Administrator.
Good Luck,
Bart

Hi,
try this video on Youtube : http://www.youtube.com/user/JRainier78#p/a/u/1/1cTkomZbS1Q
"JRainier78" has some more tutorials for Mission making, just check his other videos.

Hello,
yes, you get access to all the betas until the final Release version is out (and that one, too, obviously).
Kind regards,
Bart

What does it say? Just the basic info pls....
Quote from Matt's post :
[
Beta 5 will not be released.
... rather Beta 5 turned out to be a separate build for Steam evaluation and testing. The next beta build to be released to Open Beta will be Beta 6. This beta will be tested by our testing staff this weekend, and if all looks good, it will be made available next week.

We're waiting for Beta 6, now.
Kind regards,
Bart

Ok just a quick question
Will beta 5 be a patch,or a complete install?
Many thanks !!
Hi,
Beta 5 is scratched as public beta, Beta 6 should be coming out soon, though. It will supposedly be both a Complete install and a Patch (just guessing here, but since that's what we've gotten since the first patch...).
Kind regards,
Bart

Laser does not go through smoke or clouds, that's why tanks use smoke as defensive measures, so, even if the TGP's IR can see targets through clouds or smoke, you can lase them.
If the target is stationnary, you might try hitting with a JDAM.

Offline. Tried online once with Flaming Cliffs, taxying onto the runway almost got run over by another player taking off. I wasn't ready, don't know if I ever will feel ready.

Check the "Date Modified" of "DCS.exe" in "%Program Files%\Eagle Dynamics\DCS A-10C Beta\bin\". Beta 4 has 23/12/2010. I did the full install, but I guess the date & time for the same executable of the Patch would be the same (or similar).
Good luck,
Bart

Yes, you're not buying the Beta product. You're pre-buying the finished product (when it comes out) and get free access to the Beta in the meantime.

Hi,
It shouldn't be necessary to buy the sim again. Try one of of the other links for the same file (you should see links from ftp1, ..., http1, ....
I had the same thing, trying one of the other links worked.

Caved in and ordered Cougar MFD's to. Is anyone here using them?
I am. Have them since last year, bought them for BS, actually (so as to not have to remember all the different key strokes). One of the buttons is a bit iffy (doesn't seem to work all of the time in BS).
It's great with DCS:A-10C : you look at the mfd in the game, just push the corresponding button on the Cougar MFD. Want to make the TGP SOI, push the bottom left button twice, switch to MAV, push second button, etc... Love them with DCS:A-10C.

Flame Out
in DCS: A-10C Warthog
Posted
If you were still pushing the stick forward, you might have been at negative G for (I think) more than 10 seconds. That starves the engines of fuel, and you flame out.
