Hi all, I've had this happen a couple of times. Once I have been accepted to join as the gunner a missilie is instantly fired - it's not targetting anything and no buttons have been pressed. Also any systems that have been set up are all switched off again (is this to help with synchronisation?). Just thought I would raise it! Tom

Because it isn't Combined Arms, it's AI units for the most part, but if you have Combined Arms then you can drive the ground units. Still can't fly the B-17 etc.

Cannon, I was going to say cannon!

I don't understand the fuss here. People openly proclaimed that they did not want WW2 in DCS and that they would not be interested. In effect they split the community. This solution means they can buy the map and use it for whatever they want, but they don't have to do WW2. If they don't want it they don't buy it. If they don't want it then the chances are that they are not going to join a WW2 server anyway, so they don't need it. ED has just given people what they originally asked for, and the people that want to fly WW2 can do so - they just have to buy the extra bits to enable it. Really think people need to move on from this.

My big...wait, no.

I've been making a SPI in the TGP and switching to the Maverick, which has the target dead centre in the crosshairs...no lock, I have to move the seeker head and it locks. doesn't matter what direction I move it, it's a little annoying.

I'd happily invest in a Mirage F1, can't say I am thrilled with a Mirage III, the F1 has always had appeal to me.

You never know, could pull a cracker...someone who like to fly multi-crew!

It would appear you got some sales too! Glad I could help :)

This is what I was getting. I was talking to OR support and they asked me to film it on my phone (it doesn't happen on the monitor so Shadowplay was no good!) This is in the F-5E, there was more than just this though, but it was the easiest thing to film! ${1} Tom

I have, I had less of a problem in 2.0, I fly it a lot less but it was still present. Just pressing LCTL + NumPad 1 solves it though :)

I thought so too, but it really screwed my DCS up. I uninstalled, reinstalled, changed all the settings, dropped them right down, cranked them right up. Changed them all individually to see what happened. Nothing worked. For me in the Gazelle it made the shadows from the rotor blades appear to go through everything, it looked like there was water running over the outside of the perspex, it was awful. With the F-5E it warped the wings and made it unflyable. I wish there was a way to turn it off permanently.

Hvae you tried pressing Lctl + NumPad1? I had similar issues in the F-5E and the Gazelle after one of the updates I have to press that every time that I go into game for the first time. It turns off the ASW which is something in the Rift software. I wish it was just turned off permanently. It really made things bad for me - when it had been fine before. Tom

Try eHarmony? :music_whistling:

Hi, Just written a review of the Warthog Desk Mounts, now that I have had them for a month. Thanks guys, it was money well spent! Tom

Hi All, I've had these for a couple of months now, so I thought I would write a quick review about the Thrustmaster T-Flight rudder pedals. Hope it is of use, Tom

It is, and that is a possible alternative. I'll give it a go.

Exactly :) I have a CH Throttle Quadrant with 6 levers, in DCS (most of the time) they don't don't do anything, but there is the potential for them to do so it would just be good if this flexibility was built into the sim.

Because the actual controls in the aircraft are on a lever, it would be good to be able to use my Throttle Quadrant as I am able to in other sims such as Cliffs of Dover.

The sooner the better Phil! :pilotfly: OD

Hi, Relatively simple, but those aircraft that have landing gear on a lever, especially the piston engined aircraft, so if we could have it so that an axis can be assigned to landing gear that would be great; button presses don't do it for me at all. Tom

I'm having the same in the A-10C as well. They never drop anywhere near the CCIP pipper and if I do get them on target then nothing happens, just a few sparklers on the ground!

I'd even be happy with some fictional maps with an improved model for Combined Arms too. I think that's a module that has been neglected - I know this is primarily a flight sim, but in a multiplayer campaign it can be really handy!

I found pressing LCTL + Numpad 1 made a massive difference turning off ASW. That destroyed DCS for me with the OR.

Excellent! Looking forward to the update!
