Pretty sure you can start the Hornet faster manually than the auto start ever could. Try skipping all the lights and BIT tests and just go straight from battery on > APU on > right engine crank > move from off to idle at 20 RPM.

Looks interesting, is there a Discord support server for it running?

bignewy was correct, there were failures enabled.... not a hornet bug though, definitely a mission editor annoyance. Thx for the Discord assistance.

Hi Random failures are not turned on. Please look again. Thanks.

Flying a scripted mission with my squadronmates, we all experienced bizarre failures of navigation/electrical systems approximately 40 minutes into the mission. Personally, the HUD was frozen, my MFDs were frozen, the SA page was stuck, the HSI was stuck, couldn't change them at all. Only the attack radar screen was unaffected, and displayed correct heading, speed and altitude. Autopilot appeared to be nonfunctional, the JHMCS was stuck at its last working readouts, and everyone had zero nosewheel steering on the ground. A couple of other players did not experience these problems except for lack of NWS. I have 4 tracks collected into a zip file on mediafire here (don't know how to trim them from MP, sorry), .miz file, and a couple of screenshots showing the HUD and MFDs frozen. Thanks. http://www.mediafire.com/file/ds9e45c8mt3gqbj/super_bizarro_MP_bug.rar/file MAIN 02.miz

Been crashing joining slots on the Hoggit training map server. Logs attached. dcs.log-20191218-202800.zip dcs.log-20191218-203627.zip dcs.log-20191218-203931.zip dcs.log-20191218-204138.zip dcs.log-20191218-204536.zip dcs.log-20191218-204940.zip

just rename it GBU-62 and be done with it...

F/A-18 has the option of selecting DECLARE when talking to AWACS now, except no actual transmission is made and AWACS is silent. on latest OB with no mods

Ability to place generic, different sized airfields down with additional tacan + ils stations would be extremely helpful!

um... its 14:06 GMT.

like... yes seriously? if the real aircraft doesn't have wind corrected command heading, then its not likely we're going to get it, is it? and if the source in OP isn't an F/A-18C, then, :juggle:

Video source linked is from an F/A-18E, Super Hornet. Can't really claim it to be inaccurate in sim as there are actual real differences in the two aircraft.

track and screenshots attached. In the Hornet, dialling in 99X makes the TACAN heading bug go insane between the two airports. When i eventually "landed" at Al Udeid, the tacan ID finally changed to ALD. Additionally, when i restarted the mission, 99X no longer displayed MIN but ALD all the time now. (latest OB version, only community A-4 installed) aludeid tacan.trk

I have this exact issue as well. Sensor select hat switch depress binding changes point to area and vice versa. its a custom scheme, using virpil mongoos t-50 stick

double check mission editor that ICLS is on the carrier and set to a frequency Set icls frequency to correct channel in-sim press on to activate it box ICLS on the HSI to actually put it on the HUD

See attached pics. How do I disable? Fresh install plus latest open beta patch. i5-6600k, GTX 1080, DDR4 RAM, running on SSD Game is pretty much unflyable as it is.

... we'll get the SEA a/g radar mode when it comes. BOL mode will be fine as is until then, if the mission is designed appropriately.

well i completely removed the liveries folders in both installs and only put custom ones in the main "dcs open beta" folder, and so far its working. Sure as heck not touching livery folder in the other path again

there was no actual files in the folder i created. simply creating it and naming it borked things

wasnt sure where to post it, as the issue affected selection in all the modules I had installed

WARNING do not do this unless you want to screw up livery selection for all aircraft creating an "f-14b" folder in \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\ disabled EVERY LIVERY in the game for player piloted aircraft. Livery selection in-game and in the mission editor was blank. Repairing and cleaning the installs fixed some aircraft, but not others, and eventually I had to completely remove the liveries folders from all affected aircraft and force the game to re-download them. please fix D:

ICLS is supposed to move with a pitching deck. It gets you to the point where you can fly the ball the rest of the way down. If you're not flying the ball last 3/4ths nautical mile, you're doing it wrong. It's not a bug, carrier aviation is realistically just as difficult in the real world.

I usually drop gear at 250kts, half-flaps at 200 kts, and full flaps at 150 kts. Start trimming for on-speed between 200/150 kts and it will keep it

Version: 2.5.4.29004 Map: Caucasus Mission: User created to easily demonstrate bug Discovered bug in MP and reproduced in SP. Minor bug, but the text for the FLIR page will appear if you have (at least) x2 GBU-12 loaded on your aircraft, have landed the aircraft, turned off the battery, shut down all the engines, and then restart the right engine. FLIR text will vanish once left engine is started. Mission, track, and screenshots attached. Only user mods are cosmetic (HUD color change, radio messages size increased, stennis lights bigger) FLIR page bug.miz FLIR page demo.trk

You can spawn at least 10 aircraft cold start on the carrier, but for some reason this only works in missions originally created before mid-February. Mission attached to demonstrate 12 plane spawn demo.miz
