Right Control and Right Alt + m I hope that's right by default anyway. (yes, it is highly unusual)

Seeing the same problem trying to target ships. Was trying to hit Molina's with Kh58's and 25mpu's. no launch auth. had to resort to laser guidance on 25ml's

You can't do that by default AFAIK on reboot like you can with the TM MFD's. You need to launch the config script generated with the LED's off from your Startup start menu folder. This will then load the TARGET script each time you restart... But if you find a way without running the config on startup, let me know.

You mean those two things hanging between my legs? :pilotfly: :doh: One quick tip is try to stabilize your flightpath to where you don't need to use your rudders and other inputs, while your reticle is on the target or better just below it. If you keep wrestling your plane while trying to aim, it won't be nearly as accurate.

Yeah I had CM loaded, but I didn't think that the hit points were this detailed. I'll have to check when taking the tanks from the rear, and the type of MBT as well. Cheers

FYI: You can have your engines on for rearming in the A10C, it's for repair that you need them off and cooled. But yeah, no idea what to say other than, it must be some bug OR the airport does not have those weapons in stock. Try looking carefully at the numbers available for each bomb when selecting each pylon's loadout.

A10C, but yes you make good points.

I have to give it to ED, the client crashes I had with HDR active are apparently resolved. Played some good hours over 2 days and not a single Client crash. (just now we got those server crashes reported everywhere) On the other hand, what happened to 30mm cannon power, tanks are nearly invincible now? Maybe I'm imagining it, but those 30mm rounds were made to bust tanks...

Been thinking of doing this but was a little worried about the FPS drop. What method do you use for multi monitors, DCS windowed or SoftTH, or something else? (not sure if SoftTH is still working with 1.2.3) Also I guess NVG's are still stretched due to the multi monitors? Or you put all of them "under" the main display?

Just to the 104th guys: Operation Watcher version 22, Blue AWACS message has typo "wet of Kobuleti" :) Yes, I know, I have the bullseye skill, but, with the F10 map you can get even more precise. Anyway, its a map, muck=h like a simple map you might have on your legs IRL, the only cheat is the protractor/ruler which would be difficult.

Actually, fortunately I have pretty good nav skills; but that doesn't mean I'm not going to use all tools at my disposal. And IMO with the pace of online play, and time limitations, and other technical DCS issues which would be equivalent to every 2nd aircraft breaking on you mid flight, it's nice to have some creature comforts in a sim to make up for the BS (and I don't mean Black Shark). ;) Being able to use the F10 map (with everything hidden) takes nav skills already. Simple as that.

DCS A10-C Trustmaster Warthog TARGET Pass-Through A "developer" who just got the warthog with TARGET eh? You might enjoy this then; I wrote an A10 pass-through TARGET script which basically maps your A10 controls identically to the plug and play operation you get with DCS. The reason for the pass-through is to allow you to switch profiles without restarting DCS, for example from Ka50 and Su25t. Also you can then use the same push to talk key for teamspeak in all the profiles. It has a few bonus features: Pressing Mic In toggles/cycles TGP scroll speed between 3 different rates. Quick search, Adjust, and Fine. Pressing Mic Up presses 'j' for teamspeak, but you can remap that in the script. Pressing the Stick paddle will write "RIFLE" to friendly chat, but you may need to adjust the Chat key to match your's. Mine is R-ALT+M All lights are turned off, you probably don't want them on. Most keys are mapped using DX assignments identical to the plug and play functionality (so you don't see them in the script), but once you go above 32 buttons the extra ones require key bindings. You do however need to map your axis, and a few keys in DCS as they are completely unassigned by default, the mappings required are all commented in the script with // **MAP** A10C_passthrough.zip

Yeah, sure.. I don;t have any planning or nav skills. You got me :p

Saw it in action the other day, well done on that one. Will be even more handy once there are fewer people on the server as in the past. As for completely disabling F10, well, it's important to have a map that's not complete shit like the TAD. (no offense) At least for people not familiar with the region to the Km can figure out some headings and so forth. I often use the "measurement" feature for target locations or bullseye reports. :p We are flying single seaters, so it's hard enough navigation wise even with the map on.

Cool, Su34 is also my fav modern Russian A/C, so maybe by 2015 then eh? :)

Just note that HDR can cause more CTDing on some systems, it does for me. I crash about 20x more in MP with HDR on than HDR off, and this with the GPU running nice and cool. I do however like the HDR effect in DCS, and hope I can turn it back on in 1.2.3.

Turned off HDR and all the crashing stopped once again. Weird.

Damn, getting the same worldGeneral.dll > is_target_radiated crash today on 104th over and over, about 20 minutes after starting Su25T and heading over to target area 1 Kobuleti from Kolki. (Op Watcher V13) Sucks.

If they said it would be included and what it is, it would fail to be a UFO wouldn't it? :p

Cool beans, that will be a big aid to the fun factor. :) Also thanks for all the hard work on the MP missions. When I tried to make a coop with AI it nearly killed me. :D

Good to hear, was just crashing like crazy in MP with 1.2.2 :) it always makes me suspect my hardware, but then all tests come out clean on that...

Yeah what the heck, the Su-34 has a LAVATORY in the back, I'd vote for that one. (think of it as an Su27 with a copilot, a lavatory and place to stretch during your flight, my dream machine) :P

Objective status? Hey, I was wondering, since it's technically not possible to be able to radio in the status of objectives in the missions, maybe have the objectives displayed on a timer every 5 or 10 minutes? This would greatly help people who join mid mission and nobody knows anymore which objective a side is on. And that's not great for people that don't have all that time to search everything every time they join. I am attaching a template mission which outputs the status of 8 objectives, 4 Blue and 4 Red as an example. The timing is every 30s but can be adjusted. It's very easy to copy, in the Report Status trigger just make sure to replace flag 10 with whatever flag is set on mission start. Then in the DO SCRIPT field replace the flag numbers 1-8 with whatever objectives your mission might have. (note, be careful when copying script fields, to select the whole thing as it is auto scrolled, and possibly paste to Notepad first then recopy to avoid syntax errors) Hope you know what I mean with the lack of Obj status being a bit of a PITA. ObjStatusTemplate.miz

Ok, maybe eventually, I thought the 33/29 etc would balance things out. Or maybe limited number of F16's. IFF, yes I do need to check what's up with that, it was on my todo list. :p Edit: "This panel is non-functional in this simulation." - A10-C manual I'm talking about A10-C, Su25t, Ka-50

Yeah I think you shot me down, our Mig29 was picking you up as friendly, or you wouldn't be so lucky :D Which reminds me, what about a few missions where the aircraft are broken up into Blue vs Red in terms of Russian vs US aircraft? I lose quite a few aircraft due to not being sure if i'm looking at a threat or not.
