Only 10 more Sleeps! Menessis

Well a few months back I played around with the Dynamic weather and managed to get it working not bad. Now I went back to that saved miz file and used it for a mission build. Problem I'm having with it is ILS isn't working at Batumi. I tried it at another AB and it works. Just not at Batumi. So what's up with that? Thanks Menessis

Nothing wrong with that is there. Oh wait there is! Add a center mark for the axis that it pivots on. That way it will be a lot easier to machine it later. Good job. Menessis

That has to be set to true by the host correct? Menessis

I can open the file and see the mission but I am the only unit in it. A friend also installed it and has the same issue. Strange. Menessis

So what's the deal with TacView. It has stopped working at some point. I only see my own air craft in it and that's it. Is it a problem with DCS or TacView? Thanks Menessis

Hey DeadMan lets have a look at the pics please. Menessis

So no one has useful measurements to share? Menessis

Ever since my vintage CH Pro pedals packed it in I have been using a set of torque pedals I built years ago. Upgraded them from a pot to hall sensor and a paint job. Work fine. But they are not the greatest for flying a HOG! So I want to build a set of HOG pedals. C/W dampers and cam. First thing I need to find out are the dimensions for the original hardware. I would like to make a casting of the pedals. As well I would like to have the movement match the original air craft. I did find some pics here but without some measurements not that useful. Does anyone know where I can find this information? Thanks Menessis

OK just talked to the "host" and sure enough you where right Grimes! mmmmm crow! Menessis

Sorry Grimes. My frustrations are getting the better of me. I will ask the guy who was running the server to check again and get back to you. Thanks Menessis

Well just about every mission we attempt to fly that isn't built with the new build doesn't work. Load outs are screwed up. Some times we use the load and look under the wing to see it all is still there. We seem to be invulnerable even though when checked it isn't set that way. Kinda sucks the fun right out of it! Menessis

Well all I know is you can pick up troops but the second you hit F1 to drop them off it goes to H#*!. The last time both clients in the game crashed but the host was OK. Menessis

Oh ! Its using that disembark command. What a drag! There are a number of missions that use it too! Thanks Menessis

OK one of our all time favorites "Huey Drop", a mission we spent hours with when the Huey came out to learn what the beep we where doing no longer works. Every client had a "DCS stopped working" at the exact moment anyone pushes the F1 to offload troops. So the new update and the "menu's" are not getting along it would seem. Any one know what the fix is? Thanks Menessis

Ya we are flying a mission where the enemy convoy is driving through a city. Very difficult to pick them out. I was hoping that a JTAC could target at least one for us then we could go from there. I did have an AI Huey fly the JTAC team in. But we could put a human pilot in, RTB and then jump into the JTAC vehicle? Would that work? Menessis.

Thanks Blooze. I guess that's the end of that. Menessis

Does it work or not? Can't seem to get it working in my mission. Tried it from the A-10 Tried it from troops Tried it from Perdator Was told to try from a vehicle?? Menessis

Hi Ian. I have WitchCraft in the web browser. I move some units around and get it the way I want. How do I save the file now? Thanks Menessis

"Neck" figured out that I need to turn on the F-11 view under the options\misc. Now I go to use WitchCraft and have to back track because of the DCS update. Got that fixed. But now it won't save the file after I tweek things??? Sorry for being a PITA! Menessis

OK sounds easy enough. Now I just have to find the right one. :) I had the problem while in single player mode and didn't save it. :( Will save it for sure next time if it happens again. Thanks Menessis

OK how do you "attach a .trk"? ie where do I find it and so on. Without the TMS up it wouldn't lock right. I believe it was locked. Also by pressing the pickle button without the lock would have no effect??? So why did the mav go missing from the DSMS page? Thanks Menessis

While testing weather or not an G would take out a hanger all I found out is that it wouldn't fire. I never used the G before but assume it's the same procedure as any other maverick. Then a friend of mine couldn't get a missile to fire from his Ka-50. And then after firing a few H's the other night I ran into the same problem again. Target is locked, pressed the button...nothing happens. Except the store is gone from the DSMS page. Tried again and the same thing happened. Then I reloaded the DSMS page and the H's reappeared. But still would not fire. So is it a bug after that last patch or what? Thanks Menessis

Hey NECK That did it. Thanks man. I wouldn't have found that in a million years. Menessis

Hi Neck. This is a mission that I am building. I have external views turned on. I never used the F-11 before and need it now because I want to use the WitchCraft utility. Other views like F-2, F-6 and F-7 work but not F-11. Menessis
