Ok, thank you Sir.

So does the F-16 mod make a flyable F-16 in game?

@uscstaylor, awesome skins mate, they look spectacular, well done. Just to clarify, these skins are for the AI aircraft? What is the F-16 mod? Cheers!

No problems here today on latest OB. Sometimes I forget to switch on the fuel boost pumps so the engine just spins up but does no ignite.

Brilliant Jack. Well done, these skins look amazing. Many thanks again! Cheers!!

After landing, a full shutdown then startup will delete any user made waypoints. Regards

Hey thanks Jack, They look awesome already. Can't wait for the updates. Cheers! Dave

So I did some research and found some A10-As were painted in an experimental and short lived "Peanut" scheme for the first Gulf War. I have included pictures. Would any skinners like to have a go at doing this for the C model? I think it would look good in the NTTR and Persian Gulf maps. I'm thinking of having a go myself using GIMP, but have never done any skins before. Were do I start? Cheers!

Hey Folks, Now that we have a couple of "desert" maps available, I was wondering if there are any updated desert camo skins available for the Hog? The few I have found are over 5 years old and probably don't work in DCS 2.5.3. I was hoping they would be historically accurate, i.e. actual squadrons that served in Iraq or Afghanistan. Love the desert colours. Many thanks and kind regards Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Yeah it's strange because I can connect to Blue Flag SRS server ok (shows connected on the SRS UI), it has the same IP but different port number at the end. Could this be a "Port" issue? Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Hey Folks, I've been trying to have a go on this server, but it is not showing up in the server list, nor can I connect via IP. I searched through this thread and found quite a few people having the same problem. Within my router and via CMD, I have tried to ping the IP, it says "Timed Out". I did a Tracert to the IP, it gets out of Australia, over to the US, the last IP it gets to is [91.121.215.178] (be103.gra-g1-nc5.fr.eu site) then continues to time out. I have tried with Firewall on and off, IPv6 enabled and disabled, and personal PC protection enabled and disabled, all with the same result. SRS seems to be able to connect ok (fully aware this is a different server). Could this be a case of Geo lock, or my ping being too high for the server? Any thoughts? Cheers!

Thanks Mav, Fantastic tutorial and well explained mate. Has already improved my AAR technique and success. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Maybe try this guys. I was thinking the crash may have something to do with the change in DRM so it needs to be reinitialised under your DCS login module manager. This appears to have worked for me. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3615918 Cheers! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Multiply the minute decimal point value by 60 to get the seconds. ie. 24N 38 12.25E would be, 0.25x60 = 15 Converts to 24 00 00N 38 12 15E Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Hey folks, Possible solution to the Nevada map causing this CTD. I couldn't load a Nevada mission or edit one in ME without a CTD. After doing a cleanup and repair on latest OB and drivers etc, still CTD. So, I entered the module manager and disabled the Nevada map under Installed "Terrains" tab. Dcs will make you restart the sim, do this. Once restarted, go back into the module manager and enable under the same tab. Again you will be told to restart the sim. Do this again and all appears to work normally. I did not reinstall, delete or change anything, except disable/enable the NTTR terrain module. It seems to have reinitialised with my account and all is working normally again at this stage. Hope this helps! Good luck Cheers! Dave Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Brilliant work Hugh, good job mate. A must download for me. Cheers! Dave Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Hey Folks, I've been playing a lot of offline sp to learn the various modules, but would not mind trying some mp on this server. The Blue Flag campaign is an awesome concept and looks fantastic and very professional so kudos to all involved in setting it up and running it. My question is, how accepting and patient are the member players online to new players? I can fly the A10C, F5E and FA18 well enough, and employ weapons, however, I am very green to all of the intra-flight tactics and responsibilities. I believe I have SRS up and running ok and know how to use radio etiquette being a civilian ATC in RL with a PPL. I would be playing from Western Australia so I am UTC + 8, however, my ping may be reasonably high (upwards of 240ms). Would this be acceptable? Many thanks and regards, Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Hey Guys, I may have a possible solution to this deck sliding. While I was observing this, I got thinking, "could this be a view problem?". So in the F2 view, the system is trying to center on the aircraft. In settings under MISC. tab, I changed F2 view from "Floating" to "None". No more deck sliding on the carrier in F2 view, steady as a rock. Let ne know how you go. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Awesome work and kudos to all involved with getting the skyhawk "off the deck" lol... she looks a beauty! I wonder if someone may be able to produce a Royal Australian Navy 805 squadron skin? Admittedly it is an A-4G variant, which was tweaked from the US Navy specific A-4F. Nevertheless, they look essentially the same. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

I just hold the "ENT" button down a bit longer after typing in the new frequency and it takes every time. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

I use the RIGHT ARROW key (normally assigned to roll right (aileron)), if you are using a stick, the x axis will take care of the roll. It is pretty easy to find by feel on the keyboard. Cheers! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Maybe try deleting the metashders2 and fxo folders in your "Saved Games" users folder. When you restart the sim, it will re-build these, so it may re-initialise your terrains. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

They seem disappear once you taxi away from your spawn point, then work as normal and expected when pulling G. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Yes, I have this too on latest update 5. F10 map says carrier speed is 19. Cheers! Dave Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
