HydroBIG BANG

I think it may be safe to say the Cat is a mess this OB build. It's like jester suffered some kind of brain trauma,as if he was suddenly thrust vertically into a canopy... I had this happen when making a mission,in fact I encountered multiple bugs involving trying to get the AI F-14 to get off the carrier, the AI starts with its wings spread causing it to collide with the one next to it so I deleted the -2. Then it would start up and crash into the F-14 on cat 3 so I made them all immortal,then it would launch without getting properly connected first causing mass engine startup and shutdown events and causing it to warp and phase in and out until going into the water but I digress. I finally tried making the AI F-14 uncontrolled and start it 20 seconds late to avoid it crashing into the other F-14 which brings me to the bug below. The bug I bothered to to save the track to involves the AI F-14 starting up and turning around and activating ludicrous speed and launching off the side of the ship and accelerating to ungodly speed. I had to cut it off before it ate all my memory and crashed my PC. I reproduced it multiple times and will include the tracks and .miz F-14B Alert 5 02.miz GE-110000.trk GE-110000 03.trk

I have noticed a similar problem with the LandReFuAr waypoint. If the AI parks at a position that is different than the one they started at when they taxi again after starting back up they will go straight to the parking spot they started at then upon reaching it will taxi normally and take off. I have to make AI groups immortal to avoid them getting damaged and stuck although it does result in a trail of destruction as they ram through objects.

This seems to be a problem with DCS, The HOTAS Warthog and perhaps any other HOTAS that has switches only works properly for the A-10C. When binding for the hog both the on and off positions are registered but when trying to bind for any other aircraft the off or middle positions aren't registered. So for other aircraft your going to have to get used to cycling the switches :(

Toe brakes for me are always inverted by default,just invert them in the settings. This is a problem with DCS as a whole where toe brakes on some if not all pedals are backwards and always need to be inverted when setting up for a new aircraft.

I added 4 extra gigs of ram to my PC and I get the same problem except the authenticator crashes.Every time it says "Activation is successfully completed. License parameters: Activations left: 8" I click OK and it crashes. It does this every time and now I cant fly the MIG 21 EDIT: Just used Platypus's fix and its working again.

Add me on steam (hydrobigbang) if you want someone to fly with.I'm trying to get some people to fly with and I'd be happy to teach you what I know about flying the F15 and all FC3 aircraft in general since they all use similar control methods.

Add me on steam (hydrobigbang) if you want a buddy to fly with. I've been flying the hog and the F15 for a fair amount of time and can teach you what I know and fly with you. I make my own missions too for playing with friends.

Just ran the "Update DCS World" and it worked. Thanks!

I never got the new update with the new su27 PFM I'm using the non steam version and I never got any update today. I tried running the updater but still get nothing. Did the update only go out for the steam version?

It wouldn't be much of a problem for people who have a HOTAS Warthog setup due to the fact that all the combat functions will be bound to the HOTAS stuff. For me personally the downside of not being able to see the keyboard would be greatly be outweighed by the epic experience of having virtual reality.

Im trying to download the 1.2.6 update and at its current rate it looks like it will take about 2 hours to download the 2 gig update at speeds which fluctuate between 14KB/s and 600KB/s,when I update on steam i get around 3-4 MB/s.This happens every time i download a new patch.I just saw it update DCS world on steam and it only took a few minutes,also note that I have a really fast connection and the download speed I get with the updater is absolutely ridiculous compared to when I download anything else.Does this happen for everyone else too or is it just me?
