    [emoji1787], yeah, learning the switchology so you don't have to think about it when the pressure is on is the key. Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Try this thread /index.php?/topic/290832-How-do-I-turn-a-Mark-into-a-Steerpoint?&do=findComment&comment=4870507 Then, ensure CZ is pressed to clear any slews Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    I believe after you make the mark point, press the UFC "0" button called "M SEL" which will make the current marked point the Sensor Point of Interest (SPI). Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Yep, even on the latest update, I think the Mozzie is unplayable at the moment. Taxiing under 800RPM (slow), there is a loud bang, and the tailwheel is reported as damaged. Each successive bang damages it a bit more until it breaks off completely. Even on the gentlest of two-wheeler landings. Will be hangared, unfortunately, until a fix comes out. Cheers!

    Brilliant, that was it. I totally forgot about the Module Manager. Thanks so much. Thanks to all for the help, and a Happy Easter to all and your families. Cheers! [emoji1634] Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Many thanks for the suggestion. I can only find a few lines referencing Hermes69 and Hermes R12. I have attached a screenshot (quicker for me to do). Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Ok, something strange is going on here. I just redownloaded a fresh copy of the HermesR12 mod (70/80s) from the link on the first page and installed it in the Saved Games/DCS/Mods/tech/ directory. It is still not showing up in the Mission Editor as a selectable unit. It is also not present in the encyclopaedia. No other Mods present. I wonder if this has something to do with the new unified DCS version? I used to be on the open beta, but when the new unified version was released, I did a complete reinstall of DCS. So my Saved Games changed from DCS.openbeta to DCS. All existing Mods continued to work. Scratching my head now.. Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    The only mods I have are: A-4E 476th range targets AU Daring class destroyers. HMAS Melbourne DCE Hermes69 HermesR12 I'll go through a process of elimination. Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    No, I took the 1969 version out of DCS then tried placing the 70/80 on a blank map. It still did not show in the dropdown menu. Strangely, in the encyclopaedia, it lists: HMS Hermes 1969 - with a model but no description/history in right of screen. HMS Hermes R12 1969 - with no model, but full history and description. I wonder if they are cross-pollinating each other?? Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Hey Joey, The ships are looking great. I downloaded the 1969 version and it installed correctly and works. I then downloaded the V2.5 (70s/80s), installed it to the (Saved Games) .../mods/tech/ directory, but the model does not show up in the encyclopaedia or the Mission Editor dropdown list. I am on the latest version of DCS, the historical filter is unchecked, and the show models button is selected. The unzipped "HermesR12" folder seems ok with the same structure as the "Hermes69" folder. Does anyone have any ideas? Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Yes, the Hornet is an absolute dream to fly. Well done to the Devs. I haven't yet had any landing gear issues, even trapping on the carrier. However, is anyone noticing a sudden pitch up at the ramp? It is quite abrupt to the point where I feel I have to push forward after being on-speed all the way. Unless it is the burble, but I did not experience any significant down draught prior to the ramp. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Are you playing SP or MP? A lot of MP missions have scripted allocations of Tacan, ICLS, Link 4, etc, that are technically injected after the mission file is made. For all of this to work on the A-4 (big work-arounds), including radios, all of these parameters must be set in the Mission file (ie in the Mission editor) from the start. For example, in the stock Pretense cold war (Syria), playing off-line SP, I have to change the CV-59 parameters in the script (to get UHF radio frequency for the carrier as A-4 does not have VHF), then in Mission Editor, set the CV-59 to activate TACAN, ICLS, ACLS and Link4 to match those parameters in the script. It then all works for me. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Yes, confirmed as well. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Probably drift from a strong crosswind. Not much you can do about it, and I don't know if the A-10C had a drift correct for the hud (like the viper and hornet do). Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Your drop calculations are probably in CCIP, which is a visual process. If you change it to CCRP, you should get your AG radar and TGP back to normal operation with a SPI. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Definitely Marianas and Syria have sloping, non-level runways. I'm not sure about Nevada though. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk
  17. Scotch75
    Which map and airport? Newer maps support sloped runways and taxiways. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    No, I think it was before the IP as I thought they had reported "Target at xxx for xx." I'll try after the IP on the next mission. Many thanks. Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Hhmmm, AI wingmen (flight) can't find the mission targets in current PG crisis - blue. When instructed to "Engage mission target then rejoin" they can't find targets even when close to the target waypoint. They fly off on a heading then rejoin. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    I haven't had a chance to add in a CVBG yet, hopefully over the weekend. I wasn't aware of a TACAN problem, so I'll definitely look out and test it. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    That's great. Thank you very much, I'll give it a try tomorrow. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    G'day Folks, Could someone please post a step-by-step method of being able to add a carrier battlegroup and naval clients to the Pretense missions? Could AIRBOSS be added to this as well? Many thanks [emoji1634] Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    Also make sure your parking brake is off. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    That update was superb. Well done to the Flying Iron team. I can't wait for the SLUF. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk

    I have the same happening. The glow of the wands are there (against clothing etc) but there are no physical wands in the crew's hands. Running on 2D 1089P, Track IR 5, latest OB single thread, only the A-4E and HMAS Melbourne mods. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk
