  1. The way I would do it - TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK! Deactivate all modules. Download the installer to the new machine and run it. When it gets to the stage of downloading the bulk, stop it. Now copy over everything onto the new machine over that new install you started but stopped. (you can move your saved games folder but you may want to just let DCS create a new one. Your controllers will be screwed but that's unavoidable due to device addressing.) Run it and activate modules. Any issues, run repair. Good luck
  2. The stick barely moves at all. It's just a big pressure switch.
  3. DCS sees whatever windows tells it is there. When you disco devices and reconnect them you can end up on different addresses. > scrambled You can save configs on the screen you set configs in DCS, but if Windows gives the device a different address the next time you plug it in, you will still have issues.
  4. Sounds like a setting issue somewhere. The hardware looks pretty solid unless maybe that old RAM can't feed your beefy 2080 fast enough?
  5. Sounds like snap rolls. You're pulling too hard. Add some curves to your stick. Short pull desktop sticks are way too touchy. The higher the altitude the twitchier things are. Practice flying lag pursuit, and try to be patient. The FW190 AI is an easy kill in the Mustang, even set to excellent. It just takes some seat time to learn her limits and build muscle memory. Good Luck!
  6. Short answer: Yes. All missions are in the same format. It's just a matter of moving things in or out and either allocating the player slots and making units controllable, or making the AI do what you want them to do.
  7. I wonder how much the MAC crunch is gumming up the works...:music_whistling:
  8. This has been in the sim for some time now. Whether or not it's working in the current version is a different question. :music_whistling:

    Learning new a/c

    Yeah, I was talking about the M2KC, and the Viggen. Like you said, if you don't know the language the pit is in, you have to brush up on that along with everything else. The M2KC wasn't too hard. I found the Viggen more challenging.

    Learning new a/c

    You picked 2 of the hardest to start with, at least for me. I don't know the languages or ergonomic design philosophy. Starting with the A-10 when it first came out, there were not a lot other aircraft to distract me. I learned it in depth, and that has translated over to other US designs. So much is the same it gives you a leg up. Complex systems still require cracking the books though. I would say the same about Russian birds. If you go MiG-15, MiG-19, MiG-21, the similarities in the basic systems and layout is there. I've found once you learn an aircraft well, and have a good grasp of its systems, a short refresher is usually all that's needed to get back into it after being away for a while. This is especially true if you're jumping to something that's similar in design. The more difficult part for me is muscle memory when switching. It's a lot harder when jumping to dissimilar designs. I flew the Viggen for several weeks when it first launched, but I'm afraid I'd be lost in it today. I'm not sure a quick refresher would be enough. I might have to start back a square one.
  11. Create a ticket. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/
  12. There are no real T's anymore so you won't find much video. It was a prototype step. They made less than 10 of them. I think most of the surviving airframes were further modified into TM's, which there are not many of either. I don't think the 39 redesignation lasted very long. I'm not an expert, but it appears the more current modernization efforts have focused on the Kopyo radar instead of Shkval. The original airframes date back to Soviet Georgia. They used 2 seat trainers by enclosing the back seat for the hardware. They are making a limited number of new airframes again in Siberia. I think they are all 2 seater now. You can tell it's a new one by the little bear painted on the tail.
  13. Nevermind
  14. I'm guessing there will at least be a Viggen fix today.
  15. Don't approach it in an adhoc manner. Find some training missions that follow a pattern for landing on a boat. Drill drill drill doing it exactly the same way every time.:thumbup:
  16. Put it in the DMZ just long enough to test if the port is open. If it is still closed you know something else is blocking. If it shows open, something is most likely wrong with your router config.
  17. Delete the fxo and metashaders2 folders from saved games and try it. It will take longer to load as it rebuilds them. The 1st mission you run might take a little longer also.
  18. Post your dcs.log file. :thumbup:
  19. When you add the sound file trigger inside the editor, you will select the file from the folder it is in. The editor will embed the sound file into the mission. The .miz file is a .zip. You can change it from miz to zip and unpack it if you want to look at how it is structured. This is also how you get custom kneeboard files in at the moment. Inside a /Kneeboard folder.
  20. It just needs some adjustment. Best brakes in the sim at the moment.;) Need to increase the skid factor.
  21. Open Alpha is dead. Your choices are Open Beta, or Stable. Unless you need to run versions no longer updated for some reason.
  22. Razbam just posted a video a couple of days ago stating their intentions.... https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3866759&postcount=1 As for the Cat D. Why would HB spend another year rebuilding the module that's not even finished yet, instead of moving on to the next plane. I just don't see it.
  23. If you never run the installer on the desktop you may have some issues. I would run it on the desktop even though it can't download, just to try and build the /user folder structure and get the registry entries. Cancel out of it, and then copy over from the laptop. DCS also requires a handful of redistributable system files you may have to bring over. Many modules now use account authentication as DRM. If you can never connect on that rig, they won't work. Those modules that still use the old DRM have already started being moved to the new system. This means in the near future DCS will require an internet connection, at least when you launch it each time. All updates are also delivered using the installer. This would also be a problem without a connection. Size of your install depends on modules, with maps being the big disk users. I think even a base install is in the 30GB range. Good luck.
  24. :megalol: you are far too nice heclak.
