They've known it will be a lot of work for many years. I would have thought they would have started work on the A/G long ago in order to have it available for EA of the F-18. It's not like the F-18 hasn't been in their plans for 4-5 years.

Infantry wouldn't take you either. If you can't handle a fuel switch they sure wouldn't want you around a hand grenade would they? :music_whistling:

Excellent. Thanks Chuck. You "are" the man...

I wouldn't expect a EA release until October. Early Autumn.

RWR doesn't export well. You have to tweak another .Lua file to adjust the font etc. There is a thread in here somewhere with the required changes. If I find it I'll post it. Barring that, when I get home I'll paste the info from my setup. Found it https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3942293&postcount=1

In order to attack a selected window on a building for example you have to use "Force Correlate" with a Maverick. LGB's and JDAM's are accurate but tend to take out the entire structure/object you're aiming at. Not that a Maverick all that weak... :music_whistling:

Sigh... so many great choices and so little time. :joystick:

Sounds like a mod might be affecting your setup. Do you run any mods? If so you'll have to do the usual drill, clean install and check. Then add mods until you find the one affecting your setup.

Hopefully we will soon be able to just program the MC to start lazing 15 secs (or which ever) before impact. Same as the F-16.

Ah, thanks. Too bad, it's nice to just use the TGP to target the Mav's at a greater distance and when in range ripple off a couple. :thumbup:

I presume then we will also have to bore sight the IR Mav's to the TGP once the slave function is introduced. Or, is that just with the F-16?

@Py Yes, it helps since the game isn't rendering the image(s) twice. Not a huge amount but if you have a marginal system it can help. Takes a bit of getting use to initially.

+1 to the refueling probe request. That would be very useful.

Thanks F16wannabe. Glad to have a member of the ED tester team confirming it.

It's kind of a big stick method but I haven't found of any other way. Be aware it will also shut down the RWR so no little back up display (EW page on the DDI works fine} and the EFEI fuel / RPM display however both can be exported. I export them to my second monitor which also has three Cougar MFD's attached for the DDI's and AMPCD. BTW - This will also shut down any displays in any other aircraft you own. I set this up as an OvGME mod for turning it on or off and for updates but it's pretty simple to just add / remove the two dashes as well. This is the file location; X:\DCS World OpenBeta\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit\ViewportHandling.lua Look for line 80 & 81 dedicated_viewport_arcade = dedicated_viewport purposes = {--render_purpose.GENERAL, Use Notepad++ and add the two dashes noted in red above (remarks out the line) To re-activate the in-game displays just delete them. Good luck and if you find a way to selectively shut down the in-game displays let us know. I don't fly MP so don't know if it will pass the IC on the servers that have it activated.

Just popped it to say that I received mine the other day and can't be happier. Dead simple to install and calibrate, great piece of kit. Works as advertised. The instructions are also quality, each step of the way is clear and with excellent photos I would suggest you add a note that you need to have updated to firmware 23 in order to calibrate on the very first page of the installation instructions as well. I was so keen on getting started I already had it installed when I got to the calibration instructions that said if you don't have firmware 23 installed you need to update before calibrating. And, that you need the original slew device in place to update. Yikes... I checked and was updated. Whew!

Good news Chuck. Thanks for your work :thumbup:

Still waiting on mine. Looking forward to installing it. :)

This bit from Opalias above is a key learning point. :thumbup: Once I realized this my landings improved quite a bit.

He did say that in his original post but you some how missed it in your "clipped" post. :music_whistling:

I like the new plan. Happy with the Stennis and now I don't have to buy the new carrier, save some $$$.

Please let us know if you solve the issue. Good luck

F-16 = Viper. And an F-18 is called a target.

Should just enter the numbers. Longitude allows for "100's" of degrees. FYI, some systems require you to enter a leading zero when entering a degree setting of only two numbers.

Wait... "Springfield" isn't cool? :( I'd rather not mix up call signs, stick to what the game is capable of. IMHO :)
