Referring to Message #1 (top of thread) :

Only problem is, in DCS Multiplayer are the servers that use the Integrity Check; most my mods won't pass the IC. For WWII multiplayer, I switched back to Aces High out of Texas : http://www.hitechcreations.com/

Labels did not change. It is the same setup, checked it this morning.

Why buy new aircraft when DCS and the 3rd party guys don't fix or complete the broken stuff? Every time there is a new patch update I have to get into the program to fix stuff; really getting tired of having to do this. DCS just may be losing a customer! I like DCS, but not if this crap continues.

If you have the aircraft modules. A-10 not C version, not that great. I am not a FC3 fan and I have it. I'll pass. There are other servers and other sims.

Me too, flew all the bombers in Aces High, the 1st decade of 2000. Came to DCS in 2011 and still. Just went back to Aces High---their online MP on a weekend night can be over a hundred guys! While the Europe servers are sleeping, Texas, USA is still awake! I like both sims. A B-17 mission sortie from England to a European target and return can take hours! Aces High gets into it, real immersion.

There is at least one out there in MP and very low ping for me at 32. Has to be fairly close by to NY State, USA. They mix it up with AI enemy and live people. Also, not too bad frame rates for me. http://www.raf662.org/ Their TS3 IP address is southern, Pennsylvania, USA

YES! I map 2 keys on my CH Products Fighterstick : One to Pause Track-IR and another one to re-center its position. Then I mapped a joystick button for a glance view to my Pro Throttle using a Snap View. Interesting thing is, in 2.1.1 is almost impossible to get that view. I took the Snap View coordinates from my 1.5.7 setup, then inputted it manually using Notepad++ . Then copied my SnapViews.lua and stashed it in my My Documents under my Spitfire saves for backup.

How to adjust mirror in 1.5.7 Stable version, Caucasus terrain? Doable? Or is mirror broken in 1.5.7 and 2.1.1? I know in 2.1.1 "Mirror glance" is not working at all. In 1.5.7 "Mirror glance" view is mapped to a button. But I don't see my tail in the mirror. Do I need to adjust view' coordinates in Config? How to adjust? -+- 2.1.1 ==== My "Mirror glance" view is also the same as my custom "Snap View 4" which is my Gun Sight's close-up view. How do I change the mirror view? -+- Mirror works in this video dated December 2016. See about 2:40 into the video : ==================================================

My snap-view is almost the same as Sokol's. If you need mapping coordinates, just ask. I just remapped my setup from 1.5.7 to 2.1.1 by just inputting the same SnapViews.lua under Saved Games by inputting same manually using Notepad++ .

1.5.7 Caucasus Map Stable version : Delete Key = Starter - Button End Key = Booster Coil - Button and Home Key = Directional Gyro Course Increase - Rotary Dial Insert Key = Directional Gyro Course Decrease - Rotary Dial - - I will try to remap keys, but bet won't pass IC in MP . -+- Will 2.1.1 (final release) be same as 1.5.7 (stable version) concerning Options / Controls setup?

What I did was copy my Spit IX setup in Saved Games for my vanilla stable copy of DCS 1.5.7, its SnapViews.lua and printed out the numerical values for each. Brought those over to my DCS.openalpha 2.1.1 and input those values long-hand using Notepad++ . I fine tuned the Options / Controls "NumEnter" (Zoom normal) and saved it by keyboard Left Windows + NumEnter key and saved the new position with Right Alt + Numpad Zero keys. That did work OK as my new position numbers changed in my new SnapViews.lua in OpenAlpha. (I did not know that would work by creating a new (Zoom normal) view by the typical setting of Snap Views.) And passed the Burning Skies server's integrity check.

I want to change the default position back a little bit for "Zoom normal" Numberpad - NumEnter . Where are the coordinate script values stored so I can change the location numbers?

Yes. But their negative attitude affects my future positive attitude's purchase decision concerning their future aircraft. P-51D has them!

I am happy with it. Works fine for me on the "Burning Skies" server in MP.

I am a fan >>> +1 Go read Chuck Yeager's first book with Leo Janos, about Chuck's excellent eye vision. https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1BOHD_enUS487US526&q=General+Chuck+Yeager+with+Leo+Janos%2Beyesight&spell=1&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjFi4Hr1vzVAhUE6iYKHZX_CpgQBQglKAA&biw=1536&bih=736 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I truly love DCS, but as to a well manned WWII MP player base and Texas, USA based and low ping for me, I will be going back to Aces High. As to Multiplayer, DCS needs to do it better!! I still like and will play WWII DCS MP no matter what the conditions. Plan on doing both if my brain cells can keep up to the knowledge demand.

Guys that lose most of the time, are the guys claiming, "Cheater!" . Fact is, these guys go into a fight not thinking clearly and acting foolish is why they get shot down frequently.

For what it is worth, even if this different Labels.lua improves finding aircraft easier, it did not make it very easy for me spotting the guy coming at me trying to get on my tail. I had him zoomed in using my typical Hat view controls, I saw him coming while he was way out there, and very difficult to find him. The way most guys fly, seems they want to be shot down easy. Got to use tactics to win and walk away from a fight.
