[noob questions regarding communication]

Bogey Dope is a request for a bearing and range to the nearest enemy plane. Strange that it doesn't give you an answer.

 

hmmm.. I tried picture and got an answer.. Whats the difference?

[noob questions regarding communication]

Like a Snail i´m learning FC3 (SU-27 and MIG-29). But i got question regarding the communication:

 

Question one:

 

in the Radiomeny: ATC-->Nalchik-->Request Azimuth.

I get the reply: Nalchik -ADF, your heading 63.

 

That is not my heading right? it´s the ADF station close to the Airfield?

 

When my wingman say: "Contact bearing 63 for 70"

 

What does that mean? does it mean the contact is 063 degrees and going to 070 degrees?

 

Regarding AWACS

 

I have never get any reply that there are enemy in the sky from an AWACs when i´m requesting "bogey Dope" I always get "Clean".

 

But I can see enemy on my MFD..is it not Awacs that send out the enemy position to the mfd?

 

Whats the difference between "bogey Dope" and "picture?"

Gentlemen all you need to do is go to:C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Sounds\Speech\Sound

delete or rename the RUS folder...DCS will automatically use the ENG folder.

 

I will post in a moment the individual's name that gave me this great info.

 

Mustang gave me this info.

 

Worked Perfectly!! Thanks!

[FC3 - Training - Large update?]

And bad ones..

[anyone have a pdf with key commands to FC 3 :D ?]

Tjena,

 

there is no PDF file for CF3 keycommands.. :(

[changing Language in FC3]

Nope, I think that is for "Bitching Betty". The wingmen,ATC.. still talk Russian..

[changing Language in FC3]

I found this youtube clip, and heard that they are speaking english in su-27:

 

 

Is there a way to do this in FC3? Getting a bit tired of russian..

[SEAD missiles .]

As an old HAWK 2nd LT. I can say that we were practice alot regarding SEAD threat. We usual had 5 radars. and each radar was on for 30 seconds off for 2 minutes. This makes SEAD missiles having trouble finding the target and get a good lock.

[FC3 tutorials DCS you can do better...]

I plan to re-do all the FC3 aircraft training missions myself once I have time in my schedule.

 

My Hero!

 

;)

[FC3 tutorials DCS you can do better...]

+1

 

Yeah, I agree that ED can create a much better training "Mission", not just these low resolution video

 

but I think ED just don't want to do it all over again

 

But they will release new FC versions...:music_whistling:

[FC3 tutorials DCS you can do better...]

Another good way to learn to handle the sim is joining one of the online wings or squads and train with them. You'll have human instructors guiding you step-by-step through the sim.

 

Interesting.

[FC3 tutorials DCS you can do better...]

Nice to know that i´m not the only one that feel like DCS should put some energy making some noob training in a new release..

 

is there a FC3 keyboard layout?

[DCS not-new user friendly]

I also got FC3, and I was disappointed regarding the training.. Old lo res. movies not like the A-10 training.

[FC3 tutorials DCS you can do better...]

Ms Flightsim, Janes Apache longbow, Tornado, Falcon 4 was some games I played 15 years ago.. Then I discovered Girls :), and later in my life I got 2 kids and a wife.

 

But a year back I got more " man cave time " and started with my interest of Flightsims again. And if you want a sim there is only DCS that can deliver.

 

I got A-10, and really enjoyed the tutorials. Unfortunately the sim was to complicated. I did not have the spare time to learn the sim. I got interested in Flaming Cliffs 3, as on the DCS homepage said: provide an easy learning curve for new players.."

 

My rig was ready: Saitek X52, 27" monitor, Track IR, i5 CPU, 16GB RAM ... ...

 

So I jumped the gun and got FC3, at first I was just testing out the different cockpits with track IR.. COOL!

 

And later I wanted to learn how to fly these birds, as a happy camper I navigated to the DCS world trainer menu and pressed the download button..

 

WOW 3GB download started. That must be great tutorials like the A-10 I thought...

 

After the completed download I started up an tutorial.... Was I impressed??? I was pissed.. Some lo res. movie from an old FC release !?!...Alot of you guys can prob. fly the planes when sleepwalking, but if you are a complete noob. You need directions..

 

I found the FC3 manual, and looked for some keyboard layout. did I find it in the manual?? Nope.. I found an old FC layout on this forum and I think it´s the same..

 

The manual was interesting, I found a flight school chapter, and it did start with landing... I did find a Quick start manual.. It was how to install the game..

 

Come on DCS you can do better..

 

So I need some advice, links etc.. to training material..

 

Help would be kindly appreciated.

[Training Mission Problems after the patch]

Hmmm, can someone check that it isn't just me but when trying to do the Landing training mission I don't get any further instruction after being told to, on the ILS Control Panel, turn the Power Control Knob to tune in the Frequency 110. I wait and nothing happens....

 

If I jump ahead after doing that and tune in .30 using the volume knob I get instructed to do tune in 30.

 

Help please! I'm not jumping ahead and would love to learn more about ILS.

 

Same here! And also on the first Weapon tutorial, when learning the load-out on the MFD. The instructor want me to select both BDCL-33 (OSB-7/19). After that nothing. I don´t think he like me, due to the fact I live in a Neutral country ;)
