  1. After updating Voice Attack to v1.8.5 (& Viacom to latest?) and Simple Radio v1.7.7.0, my DCS 2.5.6 wouldn't load past 10%. I deleted my DCS folder in my saved games folder but the problem persisted. I ran DCS_updater.exe repair which fixed the problem. - It looks like something to do with the scripts folder causing issues.
  2. I see a shudder when the engine spools up. Great effect, maybe add that to things like firing the gun, missile launches, touchdown, and airflow seperation, and speed brake deployment. Obviously at varying degrees of shake and shudder. it really boosts immersion in my opinion.
  3. While ED is about it, could I get a grease pen to take notes/draw some reference lines on my canopy? Maybe a good kneeboard (not a pop up) as well.
  4. I updated to 2.5.5.31917@openBeta and since then I've been having issues. Is it just me or do other people have the same problems. - DCS freezes when turning on Hornets MPCD after cold & dark start in some missions. (Training Day) - Waypoints of Hornet campaign missions are way off. (OCA) I'm still testing to find more details on the issues I'm having. I have done a repair of DCS, no change.
  5. There I am, in a high G pull into lead persuit, tracking for a gun shot, I half press the trigger and open the gun gas deflector doors in anticipation of my shot. There it is! I squeeze the trigger and the guns light up, and my windscreen fulls with smoke from the guns. The deflectors have done a great job keeping my engines from ingesting the smoke, but it has completely obscured my view and ability to track my target. Does no one else have this problem? Seriously bad design. How can you see what you are shooting at? No, seriously, how do you guys get any gun kills?
  6. Yeah, I cant seem to get past the first engagement. I've changes the practice missions AI to notch up to excellent with each engagement, but still cant get past "Hard". I hate to give up on the Campaign, but the AI are just too good. I was hoping these missions would teach me to fight BFM and ACM.

  8. Thanks. Crisis averted. Frantically downloading Open Beta.....at 1.7MB/s!!!!!!
  9. Bad time to ask this now, but will it run on 2.5.0.153.... or do I need to change to an open beta version?

    Training

    Any news on when this might be released? I love the Hawk and want to use it as an initial trainer before the FA18.
  11. Solved If anyone is still having problems, this is what I did to resolve a "No device detected". After upgrading my TrackIR software to the latest 5.3 I found it no longer recognized my TrackIR4. It just said "No device detected" I opened Devices and Printers in control panel, under unspecified I found my TrackIR4. Right click > Properties > Hardware > properties > Change settings > Driver > Uninstall Then unplug the USB, and re-plug in. Windows searches for drivers, I just cancelled the search and accepted all the doom and gloom warnings, but the TrackIR5 software recognized the device and now all is working and happy. I'm running win7 64, with TIR4 and TIR5.3 software.
