    Newbie Question

    Shack replied to Shack's topic in DCS: F/A-18C

    Was referring to this feature ... looks pretty darn cool ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WY77BuEyLU

    I just preordered the F18. Is this playable on DCS world 2.5 ? Does it have a LSO view of your approach or an approach from another jet ? thanks !

    Real Pilots poll

    Shack posted a topic in Chit-Chat

    I'd like to inquire on the real world flying experience of members of this forum. Can you please advise flight certification owned as well as approximate flight hours ? At this point its for personal inquiry.

    Currently with the mouse, while I'm able to turn some dials, others like the TACAN freq selector or adjusting the standby ADI are not possible with the mouse. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

    Newbie here trying to figure out 2 questions: 1. how to setup my Oculus touch controllers for DCS ? 2. Also, currently with the mouse, while I'm able to turn some dials, others like the TACAN freq selector or adjusting the standby ADI are not possible with the mouse. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

    Click through Oculus pointer How does one use the Oculus pointer to click on cockpit switches ?

    Tactics. What are aggressor pilot tactics during red flag? Thats wherein the answer lies. Trying to compare a second generation fighter like the F-5 to a fourth generation powerhouse like an F14 / F15 is not an even comparison. In my opinion, it's tactics training that makes all the difference. Of course, that theory gets blown away when you start to look at 6th Generation fighters that blow F-15's out of the sky like a pigeon shoot due to their stealth BVR capability. This video shows 1 F-22 take out 5 F-15s ( all flown by F-22 qualified pilots ) https://youtu.be/EQ7MwfcjCa0

    Warthog firmware on USB 3.0 ? Anyway to make this happen with USB 3.0 ? Such a burden to try and find a PC with USB 2.0.

    I tried d/l the 1.67 files from the box site, but no joy? Just me perhaps ?
  12. Shack
    HF, I moved the files as you said to a dedicated folder structure and that appears to have done the trick. File compiled. I connected my Warthog HOTAS and I'm now able to control both engines. My joystick (Separate) issue keeps having a "bootloader" error when I plug in the USB connector. I've read it may be a USB 3.0 vs USB 2.0 issue, either way, I'll troubleshoot and advise. Thanks again ! PS: Found this article that could help the bootload failure issue : [ame=http://ts.thrustmaster.com/faqs/eng/thr_eng_00140.pdf]http://ts.thrustmaster.com/faqs/eng/thr_eng_00140.pdf[/ame]

    Newbie setup

    Shack replied to Shack's topic in Virtual Reality

    Thanks. Looks fantastic HUD is very readable at 1.5. My forward instruments and right console ( when looking closer ) are very readable, however my left console looks a bit blurry. Even when looking up closer. Im wondering if its the placement of my VR IR equipment on my desk?

    Shack replied to Shack's topic in Virtual Reality

    Thanks for that ! I thought I may have been missing more but a concise statement like that is extremely helpful.

    Can someone please post how to setup VR with Oculus Rift for a newbie? And then post it as a sticky? I've been pouring through tons of information but its fragmented at best. Not sure what the debug tool is how its used, mouse control issues, etc... Thank you in advance.

    HF, Just got home from overseas. I will be working on your suggestions over the course of the next few days and report back. However, I did receive and connected my oculus. WOW ! I was blown away! I felt like I was in the real jet. I guess switch activation will have to wait for the oculus touch? Unbelievable stuff ! Thanks HF ! Shack

    Hi HF, I did not modify the file whatsoever; I'm also using Target 3.016.520. I will be using my Oculus when it arrives and so I wont be continuing to use TIR. Also, Ive had a recurring issue with my TQS as it only recognizes engine 2 with no control over engine 1. Im using TQS plugged into my Cougar stick and using Saitek pedals. Here is my file structure. Please let me know your thoughts on getting me flying ! Oculus inbound and I cant wait. Thanks HF !

    Im getting a compiler error with V1.60. Any idea why this is occurring?
  20. Shack
    Gents, I'm new to DCS and can appreciate some help in deciphering whats wrong with my setup. My setup is as follows: Cougar Stick and Throttle, Saitek USB Rudder Pedals, Track IR5 Seems as if my Track IR is working fine, stick inputs on my Cougar stick are reflected on the Trim switch etc... Problem is my #1 engine is at max power and my Cougar TQS only controls Engine # 2. Other issue is when I try to read my HUD and mover forward towards it, the HUD imagery is still unreadable? Here is my CCP HOTAS and Script settings:
