  1. He dosen't want the cue to drop does he? rather the ticker in the reticule to unwind
  2. try that. Be advised I like to slave TGP to HUD steer point and then scan for targets if target area is near known steerpoint, not the way this guy does it, but should be what your looking for
  3. Long time ED flyer here, really enjoying this game and I love to hear others "wow" Moments. Mine was just my past flight here.. Georgian hammer campaign about mission 8 or so, take off an early evening flight, set up all my systems and head out to my IP way point, towing 2 JDAMS and 4 AGMs.. Trim up a LOT to compensate for load differential and the torque, and trim into a 15 degree climb over the mountains. a PERFECT blazing sun is just starting to set along the mountain ridge from my direction (man that thing looks good in this sim!) and I'm flying right into it, actually squinting as if I were outside. Well I execute My Jdam from about 18000 feet (instantly have my left wing drop sharply as my load is displaced... re-trim) and crack a wry smile as I watch the bridge explode on my TGP's Monitor. I send a call into the JTAC from way up here in the air and get my co-ords entered on the fly, find my new waypoint on the TAD and get lucky finding a Shilka first, set up another high level pass and boom goes the dynamite on that bad boy(another awesome wing drop and re-trim), JTAC authorizes re-attack (first time!) and I drop down to a tight orbit at 7000 feet, systematically marking, and killing with AGMs the 3 Tanks, and one poor BDRM.. JTAC calls in and says "no More targets, thanks for the help" (another first).. I hit the shoreline and blast back to Batumi just over 500 feet as dusk settles in... I swear I could here that Top Gun music as I flared on touchdown. All those little touches make for an amazing experience... Thanks ED and all who helped for giving me a way to waste a few more years :thumbup: Whats Your Wow moment?
  4. Wow Fabulous read BBall! really enjoyed it. Hope to see you in the virtual skies soon.
  5. What They said... Also It really helped me to do all the TGP / weapon training missions multiple times, like 5 or 6 times. It can be a pain to sit through the boring bits but the repition really helped me to grasp the mechanics and parlay them up to the next system. Check the youtube links stated above..... those are gold. Also i highly recommend you start with full sim realisim (other than outside views) if you plan on enjoying multiplayer. Labels are a BAD habit! :)
  6. When did they add VTOL to he hawg?? Im pretty sure the white smoke from various smokestacks was billowing low and hard in wind direction at the end of the movie (on short field landing)
  7. Heya guys heres a simple MP mission I threw together that can be fun for you to fly with a buddy. Ran it for awhile today with people joining and leaving and It seemed to run fine. Nothing special just toying around. Enjoy if your so inclined. davesmpbliss.miz
  8. WOW!! bet you had some roll trim maxed lol
  9. Sheesh, I dunno, doing everything to the letter and cant get it to work.. Guess I'll wait for next beta and see if its better, gettin locks at 3 NM is gonna get me killed :)
  10. Ok... so use the described method to get the mav. On target then switch to mav and use seeker head to attain lock? Easy enough but the range seems so short to be. What should we be expecting in terms of range? Perhaps I will play with the force corrolate. And yes I had selected the mav in the dtms. Thanla
  11. Ok Im missing something here... Been tryin to get these MAVS working and I'm doing all the steps above but getting an error on my mfd NO TRACK LAUNCH IHBT, and mav never locks up.. What am I missing?
  12. Just noticed the "Kick" in nose attitude from the GAU.. neat little touch
  13. Where did you pre-order from? I can't seem to find any place thats taking em?
  14. Hud failure is why steam gauges were invented..... I think ;-)
  15. I couldnt agree more, Leave the devs alone.. 10 hours of play time and the most I have done is learn to fire up the hog and do a landing pattern... talk about depth, this thing is going to take months to master. Bravo DCS
  16. After watching project 10.... First I changed my pants, then I decided no matter what I must run this game fully maxed out with the eye-candy, so my question is what do i realisticly need to upgrade to do this? I have an phenom 9950 quadcore, twin nviddia 9800gtxs and 8 gigs or ram. Suggestions? Will Win 7 make a markable increse over vista 64? Addionally anyone know if that realisticly modeled a10 stick will be out in time for release? And Finally anyone know the expected price on that stick? Thanks guys can't wait to fly...
  17. I flew the hog online for years in LOMAC.. Sometimes you get hit but not as often as you would think, great fun and cooperation with the hi fly boys on my team, Stay low and follow assigned routes, and fly with a wingman and you'll be fine
  18. I love steam... Have bought Many many games on it, with never a problem, love the simplicity of buying without going to brick and mortar store. I have actually many times bought over steam games that I already bought boxed copys of because I broke a disk or simply cant find the manual with auth code. Also find some really great games on there that are no longer found in stores (dues ex, x-com) I love steam, and have to support what they do to help PC gaming in a time when many developers are moving away from PC
  19. 27 - The fellow that recomended STP (spare time pilots) was right on, hop on there. good guys, if you see a munny in game send a shout I'd be happy to do some flying with ya
  20. I used to have a hard time kepping the shark where I wanted after touchdown, espesically in high winds... Now the second I touch down I drop the thottles down all the way (page down twice) and I have no probs, can refuel rearm ect, and just pop em back into auto position for takeoff, try that I bet It helps you
  21. OEm visat 64bit off new egg for $80.00, Worth every penny after i got a 30fps boost in DCS and all my other games look amazing
