Skitter

I think they are 1.2.10 - I mean, I made a fresh install yesterday and my previous DCS version was 1.2.10. I am removing the Input from my Saved Games/DCS World folder and replacing it with the old backup, but it doesn't work. Is there something else that needs to be done ? Cheers

Hi guys, I wonder if it is possible to replace controls in freshly installed DCS World with a backup from an old install ? I am mainly thinking about A-10C. Cheers.

Why the red lipstick ? ;-)

Hi guys, I made few tests with my squadron mates and it seems the flares fired by ground units (JTAC) are not visible to the helicopter pilots ? I think I did a test with A-10s and it was the same. Are the flares to be incorporated with later patches? Cheers

I join the request to make the track recording optional. Could somebody tell where the config for this is located ? I have my system on a old SSD and it stutters because track recording goes to the "Saved Games" directory, on "C:".

Got it. Thanks!

Thanks Stuka. I was hoping for a more permanent and flexible solution. I think it'll become part of my start-up routine, to set the profiles. Regarding the "mission prepare" Is it better to launch mission prepare function before or after I start editing the mission ?

Hi guys, I wonder if there is a file where I could edit the default TAD profiles, just like with Counter-measures? Would be great full if somebody could point it out. Cheers!

Do you have any "AI off" commands in the missions ?

That's Awesome ! I'll give it a try.

Since my last comment, when I am on "MARK" and want to create a waypoint I do this: 1. I go to the Waypoint menu on CDU. 2. I do FUNCT+9 (MSN) on UFC to switch from Mark to Mission. 3. Because the CDU will usually have a MARK point selected I "go to" last waypoint I remember. 4. I create a new waypoint with my custom name and enter the coordinates. I never touch the rotating switches by the CDU, I only use UFC. So far, no problems. If you have an easier way of switching from Mark to Mission, please share. Cheers.

Thanks guys, I must be trying to edit MARK point. Next time I have the problem I'll grab the video with FRAPS. Cheers!

Hi guys, I have a problem with the CDU as the title suggest but not sure about the circumstances. The problem appears usually after I switch to Mark and then back to Msn with (UFC)func->8 "MARK", then (UFC) func->9 MSN. Then when I try to enter coordinates in MGRS format (with coordinates switched to MGRS of course) I get the "CDU INPUT ERROR" or similar message. I am trying to input the coordinates from (UFC)func-> 3, that is "WP". It doesn't matter if I try to create a new waypoint or modify an existing one. It happens regularly so I wonder what am I doing wrong ? Any idea? Cheers

Hi guys, I am creating a mission, where I have 7 A-10 machines. I wonder if there is an easy way to give them all the same set of waypoints? Or maybe is it possible to add the waypoint to database of airfields waypoints ? Cheers

MikiBzh, thanks, much appreciated.

Thanks! I have (so far) found information on the "minimum safe distance" on probably all of the weapons used in the game by A-10. Looks like an interesting manual. Cheers.

If you know a weapon kill/blast/fragmentation radious - or whatever it is called, you can calculate the "Danger close distance". If you are playing as a JTAC, it is a crucial information...

Hi guys, I wonder if anybody could hint me on how to get my hands on DCS World, weapons explosion range ? Is there a database editor ? Or maybe a ready chart ? Cheers

@ZaltysZ, Thanks for the hint It works for my SSD. I moved all temp directories to another drive. I think DCS is using the C:/Users/User_name/Saved Games/DCS/Tracks while you fly...so I moved the directory to another drive, using the below tutorial: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-move-windows-7-personal-folders-my-documents-another-drive.htm We'll see how it'll go... Cheers

I would say, depends what you want. If you want F-15, buy F-15! If you are into strategy games, you are a big fan of tanks / APCs or Anti Air vehicles...but still playing DCS simulations, you've read the "Firestrike 7/9" or "Danger Close" or other book about JTAC guys and feel the urge to JTAC yourself, you are a mission designer and looking for more control over a mission as a Game Master...then buy Combined Arms ? :-)

I can feel a . . .

I tried and same here.

Have you checked in the mission editor if you have sufficient JTAC, commander, game master players on the "red/blue" side ? Also, I am guessing MANPAD needs to be marked as "player can drive" ?

Wow. That's great! Cheers.

What do you mean? Is MANPAD equipped with binoculars view and laser designator? I can't check it now.
