Put 'em back the way they were WITHOUT the pilot. The reflection looks very cartoonish.

I tried again with a smaller ordnance load and no problems. Stuck to two 500lb bombs and four HVARs and the engine did not seize. Although the load of two 500-lb bombs and eight HVARS was within limits on the accompanying chart (98 percent) it seemed to overstrain the engine. I think that was my problem. In other news: I still can't find a WEP switch or the A6M5. I have the latest update but don't see them. Strange.

May come as a shock to Rudel (who has helped me too many times to count) but I have never, in 15 years of flying DCS, made a track file. I had to find a lesson Here is my track file. It now happens every time both with and without wingmen. Thanks! LastMissionTrack.trk

Great find! Thank you!!!

SAME PROBLEM

No, devil, everything vanished. Spent today putting it all back together. Great tip, though. I'm gonna make a backup config folder and tuck it away. Thank You!

Fired up DCS today and: 1. Had to sign in manually. 2. All my control bindings vanished. Now I have to rest them manually. WTF???

Figured it out. It's called "Propellor Governor Handle" in Axis Commands. Same as "RPM" in other warbirds. Would really be great if ED enforced some continuity in common command names. Ah, well. It's fixed.

In all my other single engine warbirds, I map my RPM to one throttle lever and the thrust or throttle to the other. These settings are both under Axis Commands in the menu. In F4U, the throttle lever is working fine. BUT there is no RPM control in the Axis Commands menu. In the All But Axis Commands menu there is a Propeller RPM selection. It allows me to link it to map the RPM function OTHER controls on my stick BUT NOT to the throttle lever I use for all other warbirds. This workaround is okay but very clumsy. Did I miss something or was it designed this way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a ton of historically accurate missions for the Mossie that I couldn't make because I didn't have a proper map. Having much of Denmark and the Baltic Coast also will allow others. Thanks for the kind words!!!

Forget the jets! I (or my mission-making doppler tttiger) will be using this map for Warbirds missions, particularly the Mosquito. Mossies were long range aircraft that flew missions deep into Germany and frequently over Denmark and the Kattegat as well. In my book, this is a new Warbird map!

Amen, Brother!

I can't remember a command line but it was a link that force installed. BUT it is still corrupted the way my own copy was. I'm still doing a slow-motion dance with Support due to the time difference.

Never say "Oops" in an airplane! No, the AI in support just linked me to a download link, I downloaded it and ran it. Easy Peasy! Flappy was ahead of you on this one.

LOL. I hate it when a repairman says: "I've never seen that before!"

Support provided a bulk download for the Spitfire. I ran it and it reinstalled the Spit.

My Spitfire F2 Aircraft view key bind changed and it now reads P instead of F2. It also has frozen my controls. I can't change it back even with repairs. How can I get it back to F2? Thanks for any suggestions.

Support fixed it. Thank you, Flappy (and all who responded)!

The Spitfire is not in my Module Manager nor in my Available DLC List. Will do

The Module Manager appears to be working. But the Spitfire has disappeared from my list of installed modules. I have noticed the Spitfire icon has vanished from the bottom of my main menu screen. Can't figure that out. I've run a full slow repair and it didn't do anything. I can do it again but I don't understand your instruction: "rename your DCS folders in Saved Games." Which folders and what should the new names be? Thanks, Max.

No, I am running it online. I figure I might sort it out if I delete DCS and do a complete reinstall, but that's a whole lot of work. I have a couple of modules I bought and never learned. Maybe best to invest my time into setting them up and learning them. But the Spit is my favorite prop air-to-air fighter.

Spitfire folder is missing from both. I have nothing to copy. Thanks for the tip, though.

Ah! Didn't know the Repair doesn't affect Saved Games. Still can't fix this. I finally was able to purchase a new copy of the Spitfire Module. ED acknowledged the purchase BUT... can't download or install it. Any ideas?

Thank you, Tom. I got that far. I know keys are no longer required (although I did find the key number for the original). I did numerous repair attempts but they didn't work, so I uninstalled it. The problem arises when I try to obtain another Spitfire module. It tells me I already have that module. Of course, I already had uninstalled the only copy I had. It no longer appears in the Module Manager list. But the system seems to think I have it. I was even willing to buy another copy with my money. It still wouldn't let me. There must be a process for replacing the one the one I deleted.

I had to uninstall my Spitfire module after it started doing weird things. When I tried to re-download a replacement I got a message saying I already own this module. But it doesn't trell me how to get a replacement copy. I think (can't try it out) I have my old key number. So, how (step by step, please, in plain English with no Acronyms) do I download a new copy of it? Thanks, tttiger/HotTom
