  1. Bought a fighter stick that is used condition from an online store. My question is what problems should I look out for and what the best software to test everything working perfectly? Thanks for any help.
  2. I have a spare monitor I use for the a10c and thought the viggens radar would be good on there. I have not got that far into the tutorial stages but so far I really like the viggen. It's a nice change from the a10c to blow stuff up and get out quick then to fly around and take things out one by one.
  3. Thanks I did that and it's working fine. Cheers.
  4. Quick question what the best way to export the radar screen to my second monitor like you would do with the a10c mfd? Thank you.
  5. Thanks all I bought it today :D Even pop into uni and printed some guides for tonight training seesion.
  6. Hi all. Looking at the viggen it seems like a nice module with lots of support from its developers. But I as already have the A10c would the viggen be too much of the same as it does mostly ground strikes also? I don't know if it can do air to air very well but it got to be better then the A10c if I wanted a change of doing ground attacks. The thing that interested me the most now is the ground radar and the ability to add mark points in missions for online play so I can do multiple strikes. But how do you handle fog of war online? If you can't see the enemy then you can't set mark points to attack? Thanks for any information :)
  7. Can I copy my a10c controls profile saves over to my fresh steam install from the standalone version? Both are open beta branch but steam don't have any control profiles but I thought they used the same documents folder? Thank you.
  8. I have a 2070 and VR performance is very good. I get constant 45 fps in most cases. But I stopped using VR for DCS as it hurt my eyes trying to look for targets on low resolution of vr. My spec are. gigabyte 2070 gaming oc. i5 6600K oc @4.2 16gb ram
  9. Sounds good I have ago. I mostly flying the A10c and the huey.
  10. Thank you so much for that information :) I'm not using helios yet as I had trouble getting it to work before. So I just have custom file I got from a tutorial to export to me smaller 1080 screen. Thank you.
  11. Correct I'm ot showing off or anything as my computer not that good compared to most peaple on here. only my gpu new after waiting for 4 years to upgrade from a R290 :) Specs are just to see what setting I should try or not even have on. I loaded up the Khashuri mission and my fps is about 110 but my cpu and gpu usage seems on the low slide? I play on 1080 TV thank you. My settings ingame.
  12. Trying to find out what setting I should set in nvidia options vs ingame. And also what settings hit the fps the hardest? I want to stay above 60 fps if a I can. My specs are. Gigabyte rtx 2070 gaming oc i5-6600k @4.2 Team Group Elite 16GB DDR4 Thanks for any advice.
  13. Thank you. The vega I was getting out of stock, so went with a RTX 2070.
  14. I have pre-ordered this vega 64 that is coming instock next week. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sapphire-radeon-rx-vega-64-nitro-8gb-hbm2-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-38j-sp.html But I have started reading that dcs world does not do well with AMD cards? I don't know if this would effect me to much as I would be cpu limted with a i5 @4.2ghz.
  15. Thank you I hope it works. Mite use it for rudders now until I can afford some proper ones.
  16. Wow thank you for that information very helpful . I will test the Rockefort and if that don'twork I will diy with Arduino. Thanks again.
  17. I got this at a boot sale for £2 and I wonder if the usb converters work ok with it like this? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cable-Core-Male-Joystick-Game-Adapter/dp/B0038Q5FYO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1526879483&sr=8-2&keywords=gameport+to+usb&dpID=31qLc9WDHtL&preST=_QL70_&dpSrc=srch Mostly want to pedals to work so I can use them toe brakes. I was thinking of opening it up and wire a usa controller to the switches. Thanks for any advice :)
  18. Hi all. One of the buttons from my throttle does not work on dcs workd anymore. It's working fine in control panel so I know its not broken. I tested other usb ports and still same thing. Not sure what else I can do to fix it. Thanks for any help.
  19. Looking to make a button box for the Huey and some of the switches has three positions. Like selecting the mini guns left, right and all. Seen this switch. https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/toggle-switches/7109876/ But I wonder if this can do the same job cheaper? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1-PC-NEW-Red-9-Pin-ON-OFF-ON-3-Position-Mini-Toggle-Switch-AC-6A/32754021244.html?spm=2114.search0104.3.197.67d19e43YXAApK&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_5_10152_10151_10065_10344_10130_10068_10324_10342_10547_10325_10343_10340_10548_10341_10192_10190_10084_10083_10615_10307_10301_10303_10059_10314_10184_10534_100031_10604_10103_10142,searchweb201603_25,ppcSwitch_7&algo_expid=b0250071-8a45-4d4a-9c82-e3e7e81f6067-31&algo_pvid=b0250071-8a45-4d4a-9c82-e3e7e81f6067&priceBeautifyAB=5 Thanks for any help :)
  20. Here a picture of what happens. I will open a ticket as well :)
  21. I got this setup working for the a10c but if I switch to the huey the UI all messed up. The red box that show your controls is much bigger and the crew screen on my other monitor really big as well. I don't understand why its changing anything to do with another module? Thanks for any help.
  22. Thanks it did not work at first time but after I redid the virtual cockpit server it worked some how. Thank for helping :D
  23. Thank you. I just tested it and the mfd in cockpit still on :(
  24. Thanks I already had that off. Not sure why it's changing knee board files as it never did that before. Tested 2.7.0 and 2.7.1 and both crash online mode when you spawn in.
