I just wanted to introduce myself. I just downloaded the game from Steam and found this forum. I'm completely amazed by the game and the community here! :thumbup:
I've been a long time lover of flight sims and the most recent one I've owned is the Microsoft FSX. I've been out of the scene for some time now and decided to return. So last week I bought the Thrustmaster HOTAS X and "then" went shopping for a game to play. That's when I found DCS A-10 Warthog. I was at first intrigued by the complexity of the game and was a bit weary to jump in, but I found myself drawn to the challenge of really learning to fly the Warthog. In the sim world at least.
So here is the list of my gear:
Asus G73JH-RXXB05 laptop
Thrustmaster HOTAS X joystick (will this be adequate to play this sim or did I just waste money?)
Next on the list TrackIR 5!
Also, here are some issues I'm having:
First one is a really novice one. I have set the game to be in "full screne mode", but for some reason the mouse pointer has gone invisible. So I can't see where or what I'm doing with the mouse. Is there a simple solution to this? I know, I feel stupid for asking this...
Second, and this is a HUGE one. Where in the world do I begin??? Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Oh, and you guys are awesome!
