Thanks for that. I guess I'll start playing with the AP to see why I can't engage it. It is enabled in options and is mapped to LWin + A to engage and LCntl + A for level flight, but those do nothing according to weapon status window. MJ

I just finished the third mission in the Huey campaign(stock campaign) "Race Against Time". At one point, after picking up the patient, my copilot tells me to hand control over to him while I tune the ADF to the beacon at waypoint 14 (353.0). Does this involve using the AP, which I have not been able to enable, or is there another function for this that I'm not aware of? I ended up using active pause to set the ADF, then finished the mission. Thanks MJ

This is a great tip for this old geezer! I would also like to enlarge the briefing window if anyone knows how. MJ

I just finished the download and my version is 1.2.12.34915. Check yours again for 34915. MJ

All good here. Having never messed with the mission editor, I was a bit confused how to edit the mission, but thanks to Timms screen shot I was able to figure it out. Carry on. MJ

This is what I learned a month ago. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=132920

Training update? I see an update by the OP dated Nov. 2014 that the training missions have been improved. Mine seem to be the same ones that I had before the update. When I select one, there is no download button displayed? If they have been improved is there a separate download or am I just confused? It's been known to happen before.:doh: MJ

Sorry for the late response, but where/ how do you edit a mission? MJ

Solve I had to restart the Sim before my changes in the options would work. Auto pilot must be enabled to get the weapons status window. This was also true with the problem I had getting mouse aim. I enabled Trackir aiming and had to restart for it to take affect. :thumbup: MJ

No ideas how to bring up the weapons status window? MJ

Reviving an old thread, but I have just tried to respawn in the Huey and it would not work. "Permit Crash RCVR" is ticked and RCNTL + RSHFT + Tab is the key combination shown in my controls menu. I haven't tried this in any other module so far. Any ideas? MJ

Thanks SilentGun. I'll try enabling trackir. What about the weapons status window? How do I enable that with no option available? MJ

I don't have the option for weapons status or camera aiming in the special options for the UH-iH. The manual states that they should be there. What am I missing? I see the option for Trackir aiming, but not the other 2. I don't use Trackir and would like to aim with the mouse. Thanks for any help.:helpsmilie: MJ

Thanks for that. I won't worry about it now. Thanks again. MJ

I'm just getting into the Huey after buying it during the recent sale and am stuck on the weapons training. At one point I'm told to get in the right gunners seat by pressing "3". I press "3" and nothing happens. I've checked my key bindings and "3" is indeed right door gunner. I can't advance with the training mission until I have moved to the gunners seat. Anyone else having this problem?:helpsmilie: MJ

Thanks Flagrum. MJ

Dumb question, but would like to know how to add a link to another post in this forum. MJ

"Browse "...DCS World\Sounds\Speech\" folder. Rename "RUS" to anything ("_RUS" maybe). Copy & paste "ENG" in same folder. It will be "ENG - Copy" probably. And you can rename it to "RUS"." This is a quote from Devrim answering a question I had on English speaking wingmen. It worked for that and I think it works for ATC as you are swapping all the speech files(?)

When the the wife gets up from the porch swing and you think how much more responsive it is after jettisoning stores:D

I'm not aware of any mods installed. I have never installed any intentionally. MJ

Thanks for the info. MJ

I have 21 backup folders in my DCS folder. The oldest was created over a year ago. Can I safely delete these? MJ

Again, thanks for the quick responses. I'm off for my B-day dinner now, but I will put these to use later. MJ

Thanks for that:thumbup: Just what I needed. Can I do this for my wingman also, after selecting him? Thanks again MJ

I don't need to make it the default. I just don't know how to make it save for that particular mission. Do I rename it or export it or what? MJ
