  1. Is that going to help? Or is it placebo? It's the same words, what difference does it make reading 2x or 10x?
  2. Thanks for your reply! IIRC, the MSSR only has two sets of reading material for the training? Is there more? I would've thought there would be more to greatly train the speech program.
  3. I just got this and I'm doing some training to get it to recognize my speech patterns better. I'm following insructions from p.41 of the manual I presume it is okay to stop in the middle of the words list? There is currently 900+ words and I can't do it in one sitting. After I close MSVR and the square microphone icon, is that it done? Does it auto-save or something? Or do I need to click the FINISH button too? I've added a few words that it's not recognized but when I re-do the training, the program still has issues recognizing the word. Do I need to restart Viacom/Voice Attack or restart the PC for these changes/additions to work? Thanks!
  4. Hi, thanks for confirming! I wasn't sure if the 990 miles could be used or only rounded up to the thousand-miles.
  5. If I bought the Viper today and got 3990 miles, then bought the Supercarrier later on, is that a discount of $3.99 or just $3.00? Does this mean any module that advertises Miles are participating in the loyalty program? It looks like all modules except the Hawk and the BS1 to BS2 upgrade offer Miles. Thanks!
  6. Since I've run out of things to do and I'm still stuck at home, I'm getting back into DCS and finally going to learn the Tomcat. I see Heatblur has their set of tutorials plus this thread https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=262032 but I would appreciate if others could share other tutorials they have found useful. Thanks!
  7. That could be it.... still, a $5 discount isn't a bank breaker. How do I check this "ED miles" thing if I have any?
  8. Thank you for that info and for the heads up on that program silverdevil!
  9. I could've sworn it was by itself with the 50% off offer on the last sale or the previous one.
  10. Hi! Thanks for that info! Is it possible to know the install size of each additional non-core modules? While I have space for 145GB, that'll put my fastest drive close to max and I like to keep at least 20% free space available. EDIT: Whoops! Posted just as you were. Thanks!
  11. I'm a bit short on space at the moment and just wondering how much space DCS would take up if I installed the latest stable branch? Can anyone tell me how much space each of these modules takes up: Hornet, Tomcat, Viper, Nevada, Persian Gulf? I may need to pick what I can fit for now. Thank you!
  12. I could've sworn I saw this module at 50% off/$25. Am I mis-remembering? Thanks!
  13. Really? How long ago did it "used to work"? Haven't played for years but I don't think I managed with this FOV back in the day when I was playing DCS A10C. :(
  14. Thanks for that Coug4r, however, that only sets the default zoom, ie, what your zoom is when you press the NUM ENTER button. The max zoom out is still the same.
  15. Okay, seems like an issue with the .lua files. I tried the F-18 profile and followed those instructions and the F-18 profile was working so without changing anything, loaded up the Su-25 profile and the gauges are working. Yay! But am I at risk of having something fk up due to using the F-18 lua files? Thanks!
  16. Does all of Capt. Zeens' profiles work with Helios 1.4? I'm trying out the SU-25T profile but I wonder if it's 1.4 compatible or only on 1.3? I've followed the instructions per the Capt. Zeen webpage but the instruments on the Helios panel do not sync up with the instruments on the actual aircraft. I feel like I'm missing something basic here. Any help appreciated!

    Reset DCS

    I seem to have broken DCS by entering a very large monitor resolution size. I have a 5896x1080 main screen plus two 1920x1080 touchscreens so I entered 9736x1080 and DCS would not start after that, kept throwing up an error message about memory being too big but looking at my MSI AB logs, it never went past 6GB on my 16GB RAM system. Now the error no longer appears and I get a window with DCS on it but the main menu UI doesn't load. Is there a way to repair critical DCS files without having to do a complete re-install? Thanks!
  18. Hey sobe! Thanks for the kind words! I have a 4.34 BMS profile now with all the new 4.34 stuff but it is not ready to be shared and even if it were, I do not know what would be the best way to do it. BlueFinBima has kindly offered to help me get the 4.34 profile compatible with Helios 1.4 so that's in the works now as well. If your 3rd screen-HDMI issue persists whether using Helios 1.3 + BMS and also with Helios 1.4 + DCS, then maybe these kind folk can help you. As for screen setup, I had everything to the right of the 0,0 monitor back when I was flying DCS but in the early days of BMS 4.32, there were some issues and IIRC, windowed mode didn't work well or had much lower framerates or something so I **HAD** to use fullscreen mode and I **HAD** to put everything to the left of the 0,0 monitor. I guess I just kept it that way since then. Just finished my testing with BMS different settings so if the numbers are good, I just might go back to right-side orientation.
  19. That is correct but old habits die hard :) Currently running some tests to see if there's any adverse effects of running windowed mode. So not just me. Good to know. :smartass:
  20. Top picture is the max zoom out on 1920x1080 resolution, bottom picture is max zoom out on 5896x1080 resolution. I would like to adjust the FOV to be between halfway of the top and bottom pics, but I seem to be hitting a hard limit on the FOV number that I can put in, raising the number does no effect.
  21. Read that thread and no joy. I've tried bumping it up to silly numbers like 180 or 200. I've changed the numbers in SnapViews.lua in the \Users\username\Saved Games\DCS\Config\View folder, changed the numbers in SnapViewsDefault.lua in the \DCS World\Config\View folder, and even set UseDefaultSnapViews = false (default true) in View.lua in \DCS World\Config\View folder.
