Very difficult to change number settings on the TACAN receiver. the second digit on the TACAN changes to #1 okay but the #3 digit goes to #1 but is difficult to get it to go to #2. This was a problem in old versions for me but was fixed and now back to the same. Anyone Else?

I'm not getting any flood light on the cockpit panels. I can see that the Flood lights are on but they don't reflect on any panels. I tried in multiplayer and single player modes. Anyone know why this might be. Also HDR is dimmed out on the setup page so I can't turn that on as was suggested.

Follow these instructions and they will fix your problem. These are what I did and everything is copacetic. Of course you will be working in the openAlpha program and not the Openbeta program. Once you delete the files mentioned restart the program and it will repopulate the files that you delete and the screen will come back as it normally does.

Fixed it by deleting the options file and two other files. Once I reloaded the program it rebuilt the files and all is good.

So All a sudden my DCS World 2 OpenAlpha splash screen is coming up as shown in this attachment. None of the clickable areas work and I can't see the whole screen. I have three screens in surround set to 5760/1080 which has always been the correct setting. My DCS World OpenBeta works fine. I have been through the \bin options screen and don't see anything strange. Any one else have this issue? If so what was the fix? The terrain screen is up because I deleted the program and reloaded it but the issue continues. I don't want to reload the terrain until I have a fix so I don't use up another license key.

I'm not running DCS on an M.2 but I am running Falcon 4.33 on it and it runs great.

Hope someone can help. I recently set up three screens for flight simming and since doing so my mouse disappears in X-plane and BMS 4.333. I can get it to appear in X-plane if I am in windowed mode but not in full screen. I do see where the mouse is when it hovers over a clickable command but not anywhere else. I have an Invidia GTX1070 and am running surround from the invidia control panel and have windows set up for three screens. I realize that this is DCS, my mouse works fine in it but I know there are a lot of experts that might help in this forum. Thanks in advance.

I'm very surprised that no one has mentioned the CH Products Fighterstick USB it is very light/loose on its return to center. Almost too light to my liking but it does center itself. The quality of the CH Products equipment is very good and they aren't very expensive. Definitely worth a try.

HI Smil I am using the GTX 1070

I have three screens, the center screen being just a little bigger than the two outside screens. Is there a way to increase the size of the two outside screens to get the pictures to match the center screen or is there a way to reduce the center screen to the size of the outside screens.

If I may and not to take away from the conversation but this discussion reminds me of my time as a weapons loader in an F-4d wing at Nellis AFB as a young airman. When the pilots would join us for after work beer parties the conversation would always turn to offensive and defensive AtoA maneuvers. For a young guy fresh out of high school it was pretty darn exciting for me to watch them form there hands into two fighter planes chasing each other in our minds eye, of course we could all imagine the maneuver as you could put yourself right into the F-4 cockpit pilots seat each time a maneuver was explained. I will never forget these AtoA fights, these guys flying there hands in mock dogfights, awesome. Great memories!

18 years in the USAF provided me with lots of aircraft experiences. Got to crawl around in the B-52 at the Weapons Systems Mechanic school at Lowery AFB. Sat in an F-111 during an engine run on the flightline. Flown in a C-130 Hercules and a C-141 Starlifter. Sat in a Mig 21 and a Mig 15. Spent many hours/days at End of Runway arming and dearming A-10s, F-111s, F-4s, F-16s and F-15s. Watched an F-4 fly around with its chute deployed (whoops) and watched as an A-10 landed with gear up. Laid in the back of a KC-135 and watched the refueling of 6 F-4 Phantoms and also got to lay in the boom operators position during takeoff out of Zaragoza Spain. Sat in the back of a KC-10 and watched 4 F-111s refuel over the Atlantic Ocean. Personally towed an A-10 whose main gear collapsed and it fell on to its belly on the ramp. Trained to load nuclear and non-nuclear munitions on many different fighter aircraft. Got an incentive flight in an F-16C/D in 1984 pulled 9 Gs and got to fly it and do barrel rolls.

Thanks for the utility. Even though I have gotten very familiar with the Command Prompt way this is so much easier. Great idea SkateZilla. Free too, Awesome.

I experienced this last night. I was running from 125 to 150 FPS and all a sudden I went down to 8 FPS which lasted until I Alt, Cont, Deleted to bring up the task manager. This happened twice during a short flight and only cleared after bringing up the task manager. I was just cruising over open desert with no towns in the view. The weirdest part was that it cleared up after I opened the task manager which I thought would make matters worse. I am running a 4.0 I-7 with 32 gb of ram and a Z-170MB I have the most recent NTTR download 2.0.4.

Just getting into the helios mod and am having this problem. I have two monitors set up. I want the helios projection on the right side monitor but it launches on my main center screen. How do I make it launch on my right monitor, Windows is set up correctly 1 and 2? I am running Windows 10 and the instructions from Capt. Loz and Gadrock are for Windows 7 and a touch screen. I am not using a touch screen on the right side so am not sure how to go about configuring the screen along with the fact that Windows 10 is completely different than what they are describing in the configuration. Thanks in advance.

Just sent off for a 32in curved screen monitor for playing DCS. I will be using a TrackIr 5. Has anyone used the two together? If so how was the immersion and game play.

I was told to delete the farp mod folder on the 104th forum which I did and it all works great now. Thanks to Octuplefire, Mustang and Shahdoh for the info.

Integrity check failure? I haven't been around for about a month and now find that I must pass an integrity check to play multiplayer. I have deleted the files mentioned on the 104th integrity check site but still have an error when going to the server list which reads "MODS/tech/farp mod/dcs.manifest.X86_64". When I follow that link in file explorer I find that dcs.manifest.X86_64 does not exist. I have run repair and update without any improvement. What's next guys.

TomOnSteam Thank you for the thorough answer. I actually understood what you described. It is amazing to me how 1's and 0's can be manipulated to make these fantasy worlds for us to play in. Thank you for the time you spent answering my question. I hardly feel worthy.

Thanks for the reply SkateZilla. Most of it went over my head. So does this mean that at this time DCS cannot be played on either of those machines? I wasn't aware of that. What do you mean by low draw distance?

Heading should read Playstation VS PC. My son says that he has never experienced any kind of frame rate loss on any games he has ever played on his Playstation. If that is true why don't computer manufacturers use graphic engines like the Playstation uses. Please educate me on the difference between Playstation and PC graphics.

Very nice work. First day buy for me. Wish someone would do this for Falcon 4.33 U1.

Is there a printable listing anywhere for the beacons , ILS and TACAN radio freqs for the NTTR map? I looked in the DOCs folder but did not find anything.

I just have a question about the way the stick is constructed. I would like to know if all sticks are made the same way as mine is in that when there is no pressure on any axis of the stick it has a definite stop which has to be overcome to push it into an axis. The stop has to be overcome when the axis is changed. Do all Warthog sticks have this dead stop? I hope I have explained what I am talking about sufficiently. In other words the stick isn't smooth going from one axis to another as it passes the 0/0 point straight up.
