  1. I found this also, are these the only two key combos that can help remove my hair...hahahah
  2. To follow up from an earlier post, I have all _MOD's install with out issues. I must alt tab to com's quality when I enter the pit and reset them. Some times they stay set, I think if I close DCS and TS and reopen I may need to reset them. I'm just in the habit to alt tab now to check and re-verify. If I'm in a public server my self and my small [iB]clan may see some issues and crashes if its late and it's busy. Any other time we see no issues. I'm pretty sure work has been done in this regard. I just didn't want any one to think my setup is all blue sky, donuts in the morning and all that happy crap. I too can see issues but some how they subside and all is chirpity-chirp, cricketie-cricket. The Key to us has been to have all mentioned devices in that message, (TS, DCS world, A10C, Aries, Tacview, JGSME, Mulimonitor Config, any thing that edits any thing beyond DCS world) Has the Raw extricable set to run as admin. The installers and the programs them self's after the install's are set to "run as admin" This seems to be the big bottle of aspirin for me.
  3. Good to know about editing the INI. The TGP snap shot is awesome, I'm using the crap out of it. I am renaming them after the mission, with MGRS, and its range, I can read this off the image after setting to display MGRS. I didn't keep the time stamp, but I really should, and will add it to my SOP. I'm using it to help my clan find the targets and they are using it to learn how to set the Gain and level to make the detail pop out. I've not been using the yellow identifying box as I'm a little busy. If I need one I'll use Windows Paint later. This is a great feature, not sure how to best us it just yet. What's key here is that I can take the shot with my Shifted Master mode button it shows up on the far left display, out of my immediate viewing area, then press it again and it will save, and clear for the next shot. I don't even have to look at the shot before storing it. Looking forward to an Aries Scratch and Sniff Mod...:thumbup: Ooo, Yea, have a great Christmas, Now that the whole family is over, Trust me, They don't want to watch you fly. and they they will all be leaving soon..
  4. I punched in some goofy numbers to to the TGP statements, and crashed just before getting in the pit, I fixed the numbers and away I go. If I edit the INI file to save my quality settings, I crash. I'm forced to set it every time I get in, and works every time, hassle, but it works. I can only edit [window] for the TGP and it had to be correct, meaning a display had to be under it. and I could only edit the three radio setting, The background nor any other could be edited with out crash. so far my 3x27", 1x24", and 2 Lilliputs are working most awesome. my Drivers are 344.75
  5. @Harle Great review, well done dude, I look forward to future extended reviews...Hint,hint.. Programming bugs are to be assumed, sounds like you got around them much like I around T.A.R.G.E.T. it's not so much buggy, actually its allowed me to get around everyone else's bugs. How'd you get the software and can I download it in an English form. @Sokol1_br This is more info than I got from the web site I was using. I need to try and score an English version of the Software tool. Looks like my language barrier is the only issue now. @PureEvil That you are, Send me a link to a Russian website..hahahah, I barely read English...hahahah Soo it can be had, Any one got Rosetta Stone I can borrow so I can buy a Mammba...hahahah... I fear this may be trouble for us Yanks, the site I was on suggested I may have issues getting one to the U.S. This may just be the reason to start my Russian classes, Then I could fly that awesome SU-27. This makes for a good question now...any one in the U.S. have one..??? How'd ya get it?, and do you read Russian?
  6. Wow, quick reply, you must be a work also....hahahaha.. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=135851 I'm trying not to hyjack that thread, I made a comment there that I was liking the looks of the Mamba and couldn't find info on it. As of this post, they are not available, not programmable like the HOG, and no parts for it as well, if one needed some. It would seem I'm perpetuating a rumor with no facts. I'm expecting him to reply with a link to where he got it from and post it on this thread. If this is available from some where, send a link to it on this thread. If this rumor is not a rumor, I hope its not Ebay or Graigslist.
  7. To avoid Hyjacking this thread, will you respond to the thread that I started, I'm considering the Mamba, and have many questions. So far I've not the notion that it will fit my need where the TM hog does. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=135957
  8. I'm looking for Virtual Pilots that have this to see what they think of this in replacement to the TM WartHog. I understand this is in fact available, more info shortly. I'd like to try find out how its programmed if it is. My Affair with TM is the TARGET Script editor. Saitek has an "editor" I tried it once, just before the Hog came out. Yes, I can say it sucked. I quickly snatched up the TM HOG and the Scripte editor and have been hooked since. Now the Hog and TM have parts issues. I'll continue to fuss with the Parts if the mamba is not programmable. If it is I see no evidence of it on the website, its worse than the company I work for, hahahah. Basically, in short. Is this available some where? <this implies to past a link please(funny I have to add this)> What can you tell us on this In your opinion against what you've used in the past? Does this have a sort of editor to program the button like the TM has for the HOG, or does it use only DX codes? http://flightsimcontrols.com/store/joysticks/vkb-fat-black-mamba-for-non-eu/
  9. You'll be fine, I have a love/hate. Plastic guts hate, scripted programming love. When you calibrate it, try not to get that extreme edge, just go till you barely feel the end. There is no gate to stop over travel. We really never get to the edges that will stress the Gimbals nor the Pressure Cap when we fly normally. Only when we calibrate, just don't over do it, best to go not enough than too far. I"m not privy to any new releases, if you got a link to a hint of such, I'd love to see it. My flight lead "LOVE'S" his, I must also mine, or I wouldn't be writing this and looking for parts. I'm trying to make a new pressure cap and its not going so well.
  10. Be advised; TM has no parts for the warthog If new sticks are assembled today they are using up inventory of broken parts, with no intention to make more. buy it new today.....Nop, find or make parts for it since I already have one....Yup. I've been trying to get a FAT black MAMBA, but these are no longer made, I'd be in the same boat had I bought one 2yr ago, ...or would I??? For what ever reason TM WartHog is still the best out there. We must face it, there's just no money in this. Get an aircraft with a steering wheel, and we have options. Yup, I'm a little pissed off about it and if you read this whole thing, Thanks and remove the white centering ring an inspect the Pressure Cap for me.
  11. We'll just wait one another out then:book: If we're both good, I'll need really bad, and you'll still have it. hahahahah Till then my friend..
  12. All works most brilliantly. Forgoing the yellow box, I can trigger again to close the popup, it saves the file fine, I press trigger and get a new shot then trigger to close and save. (this not stated in the manual that I could find). MGRS as expected showed up fine, we will need to discus file name at some time though. This is with a quad monitors with Lilliputs, the setup was real easy, and taxed no gigs. This has been lots of fun to work with. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8skSfT-PBecaU40bUk4OWFxa3M&authuser=0 By the way, I was able to save the shots by changeing Storage=.\AriesWings in to Storage=D:\Aries_TGP_Snap_Shots, Oh, and the Default will put them in C:\Program Files\..\DCS World\AiresWings
  13. all seems to be working again after: uninstalling: DCS TeamSpeak Aries Tacview Reboot Norton registry flusher (no evidence to suggest this did anything for me) Norton with firewall off, web protect off, silent mode Re-enstall with Admin rights on all DCS, (no _Mod/JGSME) 1.2.1 TeamSpeak 3.016 (64b) Aries (not even Opened the Com Quality tool I assume its all default) 1.955 (Quick Install) Tacview 1.2.8 Reboot Norton back on the perch I have yet to add JGSME and the _Mods folder, and later I'll booger with comm's quality. I'll need this to run with out issues for a few days to prove I've overcome my past issues. Others that were in the TS room that were not in a pit could here me, though me not them(as expected). They could here the comm's quality and thought that was pretty cool, we may have some new DCS'ers on the way. So long as I Mic Aft to set the dial to INT, I could shift+Mic forward and rearm, I turned Aries volume all up, and checked the Volume panel in the pit all dials were full clockwise (volume Up), I was able to AAR so long as I Mic forward to set dial to VHF, then shift+Mic Forward to "ready pre contact" the fus is to check that dial and be sure the volume's are not set to low when entering the pit.
  14. I send you a PM with an appalling offer. I have something I'm working on hopefully for us all, so I have to watch my expenses.
  15. No, Your correct, the image I've no doubt will be there after I open the file to see if this is the one in my proposed path. I'll set my L/L to MGRS and take the shot followed by 20 some others(hopefully). I've had to suck many-a-egg in my day sonny..hahahah I was trying to avoid opening all those files. Ya see I could filter for 38T34???18???_I4230*.bmp. All I see now in the list is targets in that box in the year 2014 on the 230th day. now I can make a smarter mission plan before the targets drive away, and archive the week old ones, again I have bigger fish to fry(more on that after tonight), I can't take the pic if I wanted to at the moment Sooo. The way the naming stands works fine for now, and later we can make it better. This is a very useful device and I for one plan to use it. Good stuff guys.
  16. @Towsim I kind of figured the TGP coordinate display might not be accessible, Oh well. Lets not hyJack this thread with that. I'm thinking we just add improvements to this later. I read about this in the Aries manual while trying to get the radio working. My issues are consistent but my procedures have been all jacked up. I read all 660 posts to fix my methods and took notes, basically what I got out of it was to fresh install DCS 1.2.12, TS 3.016 and Aries 1.955(manually) using admin rights for every thing. and disable the antivirus (I'm not convinced I'm stopping Norton). The manual1.955pack.zip seems not to have a Manual install guide but rather a quick Install guide. I'm not sure what to do in the registry after placing the files and folders, I have an old manual install guide but it don't jive with the zipped files. If you'd insure the manual pack download has in it what you really want in there, then I have nothing else to try but fresh DCS and Quick Install as the not-so-manual didn't help me. I know this works, I seen it and its really cool, at some point I had no Idea what my lead was telling me during start up, so I'll cry about that after I get this working again. I love how this works so well for everyone else..hahahahahh
  17. Aries Crew, this is an Awesome Tool thank you for the time and the patients with us. I had troubles with TARS, and it was good stuff too, I'll miss it, but It's business ya know. Been having trouble with this also but I'm about get it figured out. When all the dust settles and all the updates stop updating or slow down, I plan to implement the TGP snap shot. Is it possible to change the TGP snapshot file name with the MGRS and time. I'm thinking like: 38TNM1234512345_14365130433.bmp <MGRS_Year,day of year, hour(24), minute, second>. For use during mission planing, Data cards, Prefer the MGRS for CDU entry with out all the conversions. or what ever is selected for display I suppose there may be some one out here that uses L/L. Perhaps this could go on a wish list some where?
  18. When you all tear in to your sticks, will you pull the white alignment ring off the black Pressure Cap. I feel like there are more than than just mine and the parts I'm getting from TM that are cracked and deformed. I've been watching this thread, this cap could be a contributor to the broken gimbal. I don't know, just curious.
  19. Thanks dude, I'll do my searches during work when I can comprehend what I'm reading next time. Looking forward to .12 though. I'm Off to bed now thanks again..
  20. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030 is this it?, I hope not, I scanned through it earlier and discarded it. If so, I'll just claim I'm sleepy..
  21. Sha, thanks, I thought that too, but seen no option to choose so I thought I was crazy. So there must be a link to it or your crazy too....hahahah I'll post that link here when I find it..
  22. I'm setting up a PC to run continuously a mission. We all will be using 1.2.11 for a bit. I can not update to 1.2.12 just yet. I'm downloading all the files for 1.2.12 now for future possible downgrades. I failed to download .11, I merely updated my .8 to .11 using the updater. (confused? I am). I mean that I don't have all the .Bins for .11, only 1.2.7 and .8. and now .12. I'm looking for a link to all .bin files and .exe for 1.2.11 to make this work for us. A torrent link would be most awesome, but I'll get it from where ever I can.
  23. Don't ignore it, The QFE at take off may not be used in the sim so much as the Airfield Diagrams don't show operating procedures. If you have diagrams with Procedures you'll use them. But they are used in RL to help stay in the lane during a departures. Arrivals use it not just to keep from slamming the dirt, but also to stay in the correct path maintaining deconfliction. When passing above above 10,000 feet set the ALT to 29.92. I only change it from 29.92 when I'm landing. We only get the airfield QFE at Initial report of Intent to land to ATC. If you forget it you'd have to abort the land and re-issue. I've gotten where I don't need to scratch it down. Don't adjust that altimeter while in AutoPilot, could change your mood.
  24. Yea, Somthing is up here, My Pressure Ring is cracked, and both rings they sent me are cracked and domed. they are refunding my money, they don't have Non-busted parts, and no intent to make more. it appears to be dried out plastic or just plain old poor engineering/material. if you looked under the white positioning ring, you may find cracks in the Pressure ring as well. https://drive.google.com/drive/#folders/0B8skSfT-PBecWkdldHZsMWVZdnc/0B8skSfT-PBecV2dEYjBuS0VaX0U/0B8skSfT-PBeccVRBVXZMMHcwVzQ
