Thanks for the info Viper !

Ok, I've tried it again. It seems to work now. Thanks again. Just one or two (or three) more things. 1. The switch DH/DT has three positions, why ? 2. The route ends after the last wp, then i've to select airfield 2 on the pvi. But then the heli doesn't fly the shown track. 3. When i select a different waypoint-over value, OVR or FIN, they seem to be doing the same as standard FBY. I've set the option in the abris, thus not in the ME. I've learned a lot today already :smartass::) Thanks. Merijn.

Thanks for the detailed and well comprehensive explanation Viper. The only thing I will test again is the DH/DT switch. I've tried it before and it didn't do the job. But maybe I missed something again. I'll try again this evening. Thanks again !

Yes, it is.

Nikola, that's what i think too. But anyway, 159th_Viper, i've posted a track for you to see what's happening. Some things i've noticed from this track: - shark does not track the course from one wp to another. (see above) - i've changed the overfly mode in the abris of wp 3 and 4. So 2, 3 and 4 should be different, but in my opinion, they are all kind of the same. Did i do something wrong here ? - the front wheel didn't raise, never happened before, but maybe it was damaged during start (i was not that concentrated :joystick:, and a smooth lift off is something i should work on) Thanks for your input. Merijn. track1.trk

I'll post one when i see the problem again. But I ask myself one more thing: the abris shows a track (line) between 2 waypoint. Does the autopilot route mode follows this track ? Because i thought that the route mode had input from the PVI, which isn't connected to the abris. So, the line drawn on the abris, is that the track the autopilot rout mode should follow ? If not, i don't have a problem anymore ;)

Nice to know. Because i've read in the manual, that the FD is used very often in stead of the autopilot route mode. So, maybe in real life it is, but in the sim it's better to leave it alone. And what about the tracking issue. Is there another thing i should set then the switch DH/DT.

Thanks for the replies and the explanation. But I already did :-), but once the shark is off the track, it won't capture it anymore.

Hello everybody, I was wondering about the relationship between the route mode and the flightdirector. When i'm using the route mode, and i turn on flight director, the shark 's course changes, but why ? And another question related to the route mode: why doesn't it keep the correct track (it goes to the correct waypoint, but not the track you see on the abris). Is this just because the pvi and the abris are not linked ? But when you're on a track, put on the route mode, then it follows it, even after another waypoint. Anyone care to give me some more explanation. Thanks in advance ! Merijn.

Thanks for the workshop Tyger, 74th and all other attendants. Hopefully there will follow others. Until then, i'll practice hovering, hammerhead, break 180, funnels,... Damn, there should be 30 hours in one day :-D

Solved. Installed the standalone patch in stead of the upgrade patch. Let's fly !

Hi, I've dowloaded the patch and now the software asks for the activation key. I've activated before with the same key, but now he's asking to do it again. But the key seems to be invalid. Any help ? Kr, Merijn

Thanks. I knew how to create a shortcut. But I thought I had to link 2 files in 1 shortcut :) Anyway, it works again. Just assigned a different map to start in. Thanks for the help !! Grtz Merijn. This can be closed.

How should i do that ? "link the two relevant files to a shortcut each (launcher.exe and dcs.exe)" Thanks for the help !

Hmm, still nothing. Any way to create the desktop icons again ? :book:

Found this one already, but it ain't working... C:\(Program files)\Eagle Dynamics\DCS A-10C\bin\dcs.exe "Proberen waard :-)"

Hi guys, Having a problem here :-) I removed the icons of DCS A10 from my taskbar. Now i was looking for the exe files to startup the game (single- and multiplayer) in the folders. But i don't seem to find them :cry: Anyone who can give me the location please. Thx in advance ! Merijn.

You said 'i think', so i was still busy replying. :smilewink: But: you're right ! :thumbup: I found what i needed. Thanks.

Indeed, it is the smoke like in the instant action missions. I used a trigger zone to setup a condition in the editor. But in the actions dropdown i don't find the 'smoke marker' option.

No, just the smoke marker at a target or so. Hmm maybe i'll have to do a fresh install. But only if i have to to get the smoke marker back. ;) I don't need the training missions. (what doesn't mean i don't need training anymore :music_whistling:)

Hi, Has the 'smoke marker' option removed in version 1.0.0.9. Or has the name been changed ? It could be my installation also, i haven't got the training missions either after installing 1.0.0.9.:huh: Any help ? Regards, Merijn.

Anyone else who's missing the training missions after the update ?

Or the Tornado GR.4 maybe ... :thumbup::thumbup:

Me too :-). Thx mate !

Yes, 13. I meant 1.3 x 10... :music_whistling::smilewink: Note to self: think before you write :smartass:
