How do I support effectively in the Huey on Multiplayer? I am not sure how the taking over of bases, troops and crates work. Can you point me in the right direction for information? Generally I pick up stinger troops and fly them as close as I can to dogfights and hope they help. Do the troops live on after I die? If I pick up anti-tank troops and drop them off near the enemy will they seek targets out automatically?

If you search the forums, someone made a mod that has a more realistic tint and it doesn't get flagged in multiplayer.

Speaker boost feedback? I think I have everything set up correctly but when I try it in multiplayer I can just hear mumbling. When I preview the audio I have speaker boost set at -6db and that sounds good. I watched the Grim Reapers guide and he said you might have to put the speaker boost all the way up. When I do that in the preview I get wicked feedback. I haven't tried that on the servers. Will that feedback be on the multiplayer servers or is it a function of the playback preview? How do I get it loud enough to hear but kill the feedback?

Thanks

Any quick way to tell when the external tanks are empty other than the DDI sub menu? Is the Hornet set up to draw from the externals first? Thanks

It just doesn't make sense for the HUD to be this tinted. Look through the HUD in the light conditions on the instant 4v4 mission on Caucasus. The mod works well thanks for sharing.

I got it fixed with 53x saturation and 0y. Unchecked slider and 0 curve. The line goes all the way across on the initial menu.

I have full range of motion physically but on the axis tune default it only covers the middle 3rd of the area until I adjust saturation x and y to 80'ish and if I adjust the curve I can get the black square to one end but not the other. The pots definitely suck because they make jumping movements.

I have that option deselected. I do get afterburner now. I am just trying to find the right balance. It was fine at first but I had to reinstall Windows and the calibration is off.

I think you have to tell the wingmen to engage bandits before they launch missiles against you. When they have already launched that is the response I get. I think the Aim-7's are bugged right now because after the mission looking at the breakdown of what happened the wingmen are only getting kills with Aim-9's.

I am trying to get a full range of the throttle. I noticed I didn't have afterburner so I messed with the axis tune and now the throttle is slightly open all the time. I don't really understand what the line and black and red dots represent. I don't have a sight picture of what it should look like for a calibrated throttle.

Can someone give me an example of what I am shooting for in the axis tune? What does a good tune look like? Mine is set to slider and I either have no afterburner or the throttle is always on a bit so I have to apply constant brake on the ground. Using a G940 throttle.

When are you dropping your centerline tank? Weird that they call mission complete with the bombers not dead. Gotta go gun those guys for all your trouble.

I haven't done that because they give you the bandits positions so I figured they have the radar on and they do fire eventually.

Yeah, normally when you tell AI to engage they go full burner and launch missiles like mad. In this mission Redfor launches first and they all go defensive. When I launch the Aim-7's they just ignore them. Sometimes I lock them up to the merge and never get a shoot cue at all. I usually hit the deck to mask in the mountains and work my way to the bombers. I think the AI can see through mountains though. This would be a fun multiplayer mission. I would like it if ED could make a server where you choose these quick missions and wait for people to join with built in comms.

This mission is kicking my butt. Any tips on how to win?

I depress it to center the view.

Do you mean on the stick? Mine has only worked as a button to press. I can't bind the direction on the joystick hat if that is what you mean. Does yours work? I thought it was a DCS thing.

Sweet xray20 thanks

Greyman, thanks for sharing this. Trying this led to my first full refuel. This and setting force feedback to 40% X and Y axis.

I didn't have any luck finding it.

It drives me crazy that when you get out of shape they say return to precontact and pull the drogue in. Once they put the basket out it shouldn't go back until we are done or they are out of gas. Having to wait and fumble with the F1 comms is nuts. I have been 5ft from the drogue and they send me to precontact and pull the basket in. Makes me wanna BRRT!

Work in progress. Vr setup. Modifiers.lua goes in saved games-openbeta-config-input-fa18. One of my buttons on the throttle doesn't work. I set force feedback to 40% and refueling on the tanker was much better.
