Thanks for the reply. I'll try with TWS, i know it still WIP, i was just trying to reproduce what i've seen in videos. LTWS off, RWS, no donors. But doesn't seem to work for me. Thing is, i am trying to do as Grim Reapers did, in june 2019 video, though maybe some stuff changed since then. Didn't mentionned i was on latest Open Beta. Worst case scenario, i'll just use with LTWS, i just wanted to explore both ways and understand both. EDIT: It did worked in TWS + No LTWS, i guess i'll just use LTWS on and problem solve.

Will try something. For now it only works if i have LTWS selected... EDIT: Here's the attached track trying manual interrogation without LTWS. FA18-01.trk

Yep, i press a few seconds as Mode 4 Interrogation while TDC over on theradar and did also when STT interrogate, nothing happens, it will just stay Unknown, if i box LTWS, it will detect it as hostile... really dunno what i am doing wrong...

Hey all, ok i feel stupid,trying to understand here, learning the IFF and SA, there a few post on this and trying what i read over and still doesn't work, when i enterogate an unknown, i get no replies, i made a Mig-29 spawn, between 20-30 nm, i get his EWR triangle indicator, IFF and D/L are both on, on the Radar Data page i unboxed LTWS so i can try to do manualy stuff. I cannot get the target to become bandit with red icons. I mouse over it on the Radar, press « Sensor Cpntrol Switch - Depress » and nothing happens well closer than 20 nm, and no response, fine, then i STT it, press the « Sensor Cpntrol Switch - Depress » again to interogate with NCTR, so i tried to IFF with both Mode 4 and NCTR and no joy.. it still shows as unknown.... what am i missing? Do i really need a donator to fully ID it hostile? I though if IFF Mode 4 interogate no response would be considered hostile than with STT NCTR interrogate would confirm second option and confirmed it hostile....

That is weird, cuz on my side, it pretty much shows in, almost, any Task, i tried, CAS, Seep, Escort, CAP. Might sound stupid, but make sure you're using a country that oeperates it or something, tru USA, for sure it shows as F-14B, but for exemple, australia and Canada, i can't see it in the listing.

Can't say man, never worked on video game building, i only said because all i know in 3D is when i build 3D environement in After Effect and each object can be enabled or disabled, casting shadow on other objects and receive shadow from other object, so i simply said i though the aircraft wasn't part of the hangar shadow projection as an object not a scenery, but i don't know anything about is, i just presumed. Personaly having the environement reflect on the hornet in a hangar doesn't really bother me, as 99% of the time the Hornet i start from the Carrier and as per inside cockpit floor pannels, most of the time i have the pilot body enable so i don'T really look the floor, only time i hide the pilot is to press the T/O Flaps button. But for your information, for a few times there was issues with the floor, i remember once ago, the landing gear lights were illuminating through the cockpit floor. GL with the research guys.

Pretty much why we see stars more easily in countryside than high lighted cities.

Menu/Options/VR/ Uncheck « Cursor Confined to Game Window » Thats the only way i found to fix this, though if you have multiple screen, and have a second screen set on your left, if you move the mouse on the screen limit on left it will change screen, but you get used to it When i loose my mouse i simply move my mouse right until it appears, and it will stick to my right most screen's right edge.

I hope you do insert a USB Key in your computer to simulate inserting a key in the ignition of the car? :P

Air Refueling and Carrier landings are my favorites stuff in DCS, so i personnaly passed lots and lots of time refueling, each new modules i grab who can A/A, i try it. If the boom operator is not broken as it was a while ago (he wasn't moving, so you had to directly connect the boom in the aircraft refueling socket), it's not too bad, drogue basket is another thing, specialy now with turbulence but, fun, so far from the A-10c, F-15c, AV-8B, SU-33, F/A-18c, M-2000c and F-16, after a few tries it ain't that bad, only one i ever had issues with was the Harrier (i will always remember those first few tiems with the Harrier, i just my VR and learning to try the Harrier in VR and i almost shited my pants with the size of the tanker), but after you found yourself some visuals references, all gets pretty easy, though sometiems it takes more time to connect then others and i still got to try the Tomcat.

I now, uses autostart, for a few resons. 1st once in a while i'm out the sim for a while, so it's a pain to relearn. 2nd i don't wanna waste my time learning start up procedure on a early access module that constantly evolve and has sometimes starting procedures changed and need relearn. 3rd, i'm having bad memory now, so not only learning the systems of each aircraft is something, then learning startup for the 3 aircrafts i mainly only fly now, the Hornet, Viper and Tomcat would be too much asking for my brain, and 4th, sometimes i only have a few moments to fly, so i rather let the autostart do his thing as i can do other things and waiting. Not to mention the many times on public servers like Aerobatics Online, i wasted my time starting up manualy the thing, than some stupid brainless person end up crashing on top of me or in front of the runway as i roll while trying to do his damn aerobatics over people without total control of his aircraft and thinking he's impressive, leading to a need to restart the bird because of some idiot. Now i'm laysy. :) After all, when playing a racing game/sim, do i waste my time starting the car or i simply race? ;)

Bikes works the same, keep pressing your hand on the brake handle ;)

Not sure if i am seing right, but on my perspective it looks like it reflects a blueish/grey environement, as if a ckoud covered raining day sky or early night, as if, the shelter wasn't taken in consideration and blocking outside light? But that's my own stupid interpretation. :) EDIT: I just realised i don't see the Hornet's shadow on the ground, is your shadow off? Could it affect inner hangar shadow cast on the aircraft if so?

This bugs you, but the fact they constantly use after burners and never run out of fuel never bugged you? :) That what made me stop fighting AI before my break last night, when i made a test because i got a little fed up to see them keeping going vertical nonstop with burners on infinite and gave 10% fuel on the AI and the ran away from me full burners for over 50 nm, with 10% fuel remaining....

Having also 4 jets AI spawning Parking Hot also fixes it, they spawn always before the player and since all 4 uses the parking, i'm able to spawn at a different place, no need to play with spawn time. This made me able to spawn on the elevator in front of the LSO station besides the tower. At least this way, as i startup up and get ready on parking, i don'T get bumped into by the E2 taxing out of his parking spot behind me and getting impatient.

Been there, done that. Discovered it with the same situation, thought i did something wrong, then realised the NWS and AOA Indexer weren't showing either, then reliased i mist had skrewed something up trying the Viper for the first time at night. :doh:

Hey all, I was wondering, as per radio calls, when does the call in for the « Commencing » is made? Is it directly at the DME as starting the decent, or as you start the push rolling out of the holding and getting into the final bearing and pusing for the DME. is the leg prior to the DME considered into the holding pattern or is it part of the push start? I'm wondering cuz from the tutorials i'Ve seen, the call is made as the descent starts, but the thing is, when stacked at angel 6, the time it takes from descending from angel 6 to angel 5 (plateform) is quite fast, with the speed ATC replies and our pilot, the commencing calls, the check in call and the plateform call all 3 overlaps forcing to cut all conversation to start the next radio call. In other words, is the pushtime at the DME for descent or rolling out of the holding and getting into the final bearing. Thanks.

Just great! Thanks a lot!

Yeah thanks, just found this out, realised i had this issues since i made a evening/night mission, never realised the dim was low. Stupid me. Thanks

Hey guys, having some issues (more likely 18 inches behind the screen issue) or so, since a few days, i realised that i do not get the AoA Indexer, NWS indicator and Aerial Refueling door indicator on the HUD sides, what am i missing or doing wrong?

You made me doupt and i tried again, and you'Re half right on my side, ILS for 110.70 for rny 09 doesn'T work, as it's always this one i always tried since i always come in from the sea, but the other side, 110.75 rny 27 does work, which i never tried before.

No offence man, but why would you want a refund? Personnaly, all the videos, images i've seen for the SuperCarrier was mainly showing the upgrade for the Stenis with american deck crew, i've never ever seen any russian crew or mentionned about it, even on the product page it mainly mentionned about the Theodore Roosevelt sub-class listing, even the first line gave a hint « DCS: Supercarrier is the most detailed and realistic simulation of a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier ever created. » If you go on and buy a product expecting to be more than it shows, though all was listed, i don't think a refund would be quite right.

I presume, as he said it's ON on his DED, more likely his volume is ok, i think he might be using Persian Gulf map, as the time i tried was on that map and i never got to make it work there, and i also did all was supposed to do, the ILS needles in the stand by ADI says sorta cage and on the HUD nothing happens even when flying over, so distance or whatever like others said, might not be the problem. I'll have to try on Caucasus as i setup my mission on there, haven'T used that map for a long time. EDIT: I tried all i was doing on PG map, but in Caucasus at Batumi and all worked. As Ramsay said, PG might have issues. I'm having the feeling it's OP's issues as well, as from his post, he seems to know what he's doing.

I dunno irl how it supposed to be, but i got to admit last week when i first flew the Viper, i set my time for sunset in Persian Gulf, and was impressed in VR with the effect, the sort blinding effect i got when that glare passes your eyes as i aileron rolled and the setting sun relfected on the canopy. I personaly loved it.

I finaly bind Ball Call to the spacebar, enven blind the space bar is easy to us/find. I got quite enough time to press it as i roll in final, a tiny throttle up input for the half second i let throttle go so i don't sink. So far, this way is 100 tiems better than going through radio menus. I used to have voice attack, but found it annoying in MP and the day for some reason it doesn't work, i was skrewed up by not remembering how to access other stuff, basicly i perosnaly found voice attack to make me become a spoiled brat. :) The only time i really had a thrill with is, was flying the Huey, for some CAS or troop extract/insert, by voice commanding door gunners and CTLD troop insert.
