Tutorial threads (where are they)?
BigfootMSR replied to DarkMellie's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
Well, first off FC3 has just been released within the last few weeks so I am sure there are lot vids being created to address the issues you are looking for. That being said, im sure if you made a good tutorial video, you would get a lot of hits. As far as tutorial threads, there really isnt a specific tutorial thread. You can check out a few threads on here and on the wiki that will point you to some good resources to get started though. But, feel free to ask a way with any specific questions you have. The folks on these boards will do there best to answer your question as quick as possible. -
Having trouble getting BS2 to work in DCS World
BigfootMSR replied to mtgrill's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
It is safe to remove them, however, if space is not an issue, I would just leave them so you do not have to mess with installing them again in the future in case you need to reinstall for some issue. -
BS2 update wont install with Steam BS
BigfootMSR replied to QVidal's topic in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark
It appears you have the right file downloaded, The only suggestion I have is to try this: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=94531. It will remove your activation for bs on your comp so it will burn an activation. But, I believe it should get you working. Try searching around the forums in the activation problems forum/thread. There might be something in there other than this. When you are installing BS1 after you upgraded the computer, did it ask you for your serial key? -
I guess the question I have since he is saying unable is, are you actually sending your wingman a target to engage via the datalink? Have the wingmen scout out in front of you and he will send you back target locations via the data link. If you don't know what I am talking about, see my training missions in my signature.

SAM recognition for newbs to A-10C/ DCSW
BigfootMSR replied to WildBillKelsoe's topic in DCS: A-10C Warthog
That is an awesome graphic. Its just missing one little detail, the man pads :) -
Nah, people just need to actually read more and assume less :) The 4 digit version number is actually a very good format to have. Especially in a game like this that will get very large with lots of updates. I posted someplace what the numbers mean, but I cant find it at the moment and Im at work and cant look at my compiler :/
-
Post a track of your start up procedure. If you are not doing something correctly in the start up procedure, its possible that your throttle will not move to the idle position no matter what key you have assigned to it. Double check your start up. Take the start up training mission and make sure that its not your checklist.

Version 1.1.1.1 was the last standalone version. Anything after that has been implemented into World. There was some confusion with the early modules and stuff Pay very close attention to the version numbers and you will see a difference. Its easy to over look. Sure world has a few problems but its vastly improved over 1.1.1.1.
-
There is no way in the game to do this. It would have to be scripted through the mission editor to do so. The quick and dirty way that comes to mine would be to deactivate the first guy, and reactivate by spawning a new unit. Although, since he is part of your wing, I don't know how that would complicate things.
-
The best thing you could do would be to post a (short as possible) track of the issue. Having people recreate the issue through your instructions rather than seeing it first hand through your track will get mixed results and may not find the root cause.

Refer to my above post. In short, JTAC is broken.
-
I belive I read many threads here on the forums that JTAC is currently broken. Repeating armaments, not responding ect. This may be just another side of the same coin.

Error when activate DCS module a10
BigfootMSR replied to super2277's topic in Payment and Activation
Does it do that for all missions you are trying to fly? Try a pre made mission. Instant action ect. It sounds like its not installed properly or not activated right. -
Error when activate DCS module a10
BigfootMSR replied to super2277's topic in Payment and Activation
When you first start the game, does the $ sign show up on the a10 module? -
Error when activate DCS module a10
BigfootMSR replied to super2277's topic in Payment and Activation
click retry to reactivate your game. Because of the upgrade, it will burn an activation to reactivate, but its the only choice. Dont worry about burning up all your activations, once you have used the last one, they will automatically give you another one after 30 days. -
DCS WORLD update doesn't finish....
BigfootMSR replied to kirk7312's topic in DCS World 1.x (read only)
How many times have you tried to run it? If only once. I would close the auto-updater and try running it again via the start menu command. -
You should follow Grime's idea and post a track.
-
What version are you trying to install? as far as I can remember, TARS was only in beta version for compatibility with World. You will need at least TARS 1.0.2b1 for DCS: World. 1.0.2b2 is the most recent release.
-
Take a look at the input/output thread of the forums. THere are several threads in there that talk about how to create external controllers such as external push buttons that work with game.
-
I'm not 100% sure, but I do not believe the majority of them can be used in DCS. I know the throttle quadrant can be. PeterP uses it for his KA-50 cockpit build. Beyond that, i'm not sure. Have you tried searching the forums? I'm sure this question has been asked many times.
-
Try placing some vehicles from the respective countries around the FARP if you havnt already. It might be an issue where when your taking the FARPs alignment is being set to something else thus creating a target.

I believe the AI issue is actually the main reason they have not gone to a multi-seat aircraft. There are a LOT of issue that come up with having a AI controlled co-pilot. Just an example, your coming up on an engagement, your in the pilot seat, can see a priority target, but your weapons guy is firing at something else. Then what? Or, your the gunner, and you see something you need to get a little closer to to shoot at but the pilot turns and banks off some other direction to avoid something, or is just running its waypoints. Obviously there are flaws in the situations, but you get the point. NOW, that being said.. They are working on this issue and I believe they announced that the Uh1 will be the first aircraft to have multiseat capability. It will NOT be launching with that capability at first, but it will be added in later. CHEERS!

I don't believe that's a glitch. I believe that is how it actually works. If you you hold down one of the lower osb buttons on the good MFD for a second or two, it will bring up a screen that will allow you to select what screen you want to display. Click on the one you want and then the osb at the bottom that you want to assign it too. Then click your newly assigned mfd screen and your good to go.
