  1. I noticed that while using TrackIR, I have to move my head into like 5 inches distance to the HUD frame to have the whole projection becoming visible for me on the HUD glass. If I move my head back into normal position (leaning back to the headrest), the HUD projection size remains unchanged compared to my monitor, yet since the HUD frame size decreases (more distance), only the center content of the HUD projection remains visible. Is this a bug? I don't think this is physically correct. If the distance to the HUD increases, the HUD projection should decrease in size as well...
  2. I noticed that while the surrounding scenery remains visible, any additional units (like vehicles, troops) which are added by the mission and not part of the map module simply vanish from the TGP display. They uncloak back into the scenery when getting closer than 8-9 NM. Is this related to some graphic setting on my end?
  3. Interesting, didn't experience this so far. @QuiGonwhat kind of GPS restricted conditions would this be? I am not aware DCS has a kill switch for GPS reception. I think the longest flight I had so far with the Apache was 3+ hours on the Syria map and there was no noticable drift.
  4. Nice exaggeration but you can still fly the Apache even while Hellfires can't launch. In most cases when George doesn't launch, the reason for it is on the TADS screen. If you observe it more closely that in 99 % when George refuses to launch, his current aim is off the target or the target is actually behind an obstacle and invisible. You will then have to be patient for George to regain LOS and precise crosshair on the target or even support him by flying respectively. The real bug is that George reports targets after scanning that he actually can't reliably launch on at that moment.
  5. 1. configure your PTT control via the SRS settings. Create a controls profile in SRS for every module you fly. SRS automatically switches between these profiles according to the selected aircraft ingame. 2. Make sure you activate "SRS override cockpit controls" in the SRS settings 3. Enjoy SRS is not part of DCS. It's a 3rd party addon made by @Ciribob, who is maintaining it for free use in this thread
  6. copy this into your Mods\aircraft\Ka-50\Input\ka-50\joystick default.lua Next patch will overwrite this with the old one, you will still find it in the most recent backup folder within your DCS installation and copy it back into place. Got this from somehwere in this forum but can't keep track where exactly...
  7. 0.61 changelog shows update for M-2000 to match precision but actually it cuts off precision. Scratchpad coords taken in the M-2000 are now DD°MM.M yet we need DD°MM.MMM The display of the M-2000 nav sys shows DD°MM.M yet it indeed is fed with DD°MM.MMM Any idea how to switch off Scratchpad's attempts to match coords with the module we fly that moment?
  8. binding these for the CPG is a good idea yet you can't just override the pilot's control and would have to assume authority first
  9. At initial rearming and refueling a slick Apache after spawning, the numbers in the rearming window are wrong. Since we don't have access to these anymore since last patch (and I totally understand and support the idea behind this), we can't correct these and flares/chaffs are stuck at 64/0. After rearming is complete, 63/0 are loaded. Only a second rearming cures this. Numbers then are correct in the reaming window and are correctly taken on board.
  10. Problem: regardless which module I am in, opening up the controls setting now calls up the alphabetically first module in the list, not the one you are currently using.
  11. It will certainly launch at you within 22 seconds and with the current accuracy of player and/or George launched Hellfires, there is a decent chance you won't kill the SAM system before its launch hits you. Killing the SAM at max Hellfire range before it kills you is nowhere safe enough to be counted on. Counting on your Hellfire killing the SAM before the SAM counter missile hits you is a huge gamble you will often lose. Actually I would totally recommend to launch from a distance behind the hill tip. It doesn't affect the time you need to break LOS, you get a ballistic advantage and you gain a lot more space in front of you for your evasion (or hectic contingency maneuvers) in case other threats surprise you. Staying close behind a tree, hill or other obstacle reduces your space to maneuver and increases your chance to hit something. Keep some space, retain flexibility.
  12. maybe elaborate a bit what you mean with "never work"? Don't the yellow rings appear in the BRU? Is your key press not recognized the moment you have it aligned?
  13. If you press VID again, it will show PLT HMD selected on R5, although we pressed R6, only a second press of no video (R6) will then get rid of the TADS recticle. The current way to workaround this bug in one single flow is from the TADS repeater view you select T6 (TADS) followed by R5 (PLT HMD) then R6 (no video).
  14. So far we had to flip all these squelch switches up at cold start to silence any radio static. Now since the recent patch, if you don't do this, the static is only audible when the ground crew is talking to you or when TSD>MAP>UTIL>INST>ADF is enabled. You will then still have to flip up all the switches to silence the static completely. Basically if you stand by your checklist and still enable all the squelch switches, you won't ever notice.
  15. both rotating dials on the PVTz-800 and the one on the PVI-800
  16. It might rather be the sun looking through your rotor disc and occasionally casting a shadow by the blades into your cockpit The shape doesn't make any sense though
  17. Dials and switches don't cycle anymore. You have to go back and/or forth.
  18. 1. same for LWS 2. the ABRIS max brightness is way lower than before the patch 3. IT-23 is green
  19. I am playing this on a dedicated 24/7 MP server, so basically the host could have unintentionally set this option for some slots and not for others, I will check this. So the inability of George not seeing a T-90 out in the open in 2 km is a different issue....
