The apkws from the Harrier often hit trees on the way to the target because instead of lofting like the mavericks do, it drops in altitude a lot while tracking the target then comes onto the approach to the target nearly horizontally. I was wondering if this was correct behaviour? I will try to get a track if it doesn't sound right.

I think there used to be a way to use trackir to look around in the commander view, or one of the views, I think it got taken out. .

I know this is a pretty old thread, but I just wanted to say thank you! I thought I had installed the patch months ago but noticed I still had reversal bug on the throttle, I didn't follow the instructions closely enough (I thought you just had to have the files in the same directory and run the locitech patch, but you have to run Fred's patch to patch the locitech updater.) I was having real trouble aerial refuelling before with the throttle jumping around with the reversal bug, now I still can't aerial reful, but now I have no excuse!

1440x900 is only 1.3 Million pixels 3840x2160 is 8.3 Million pixels. So at 4K the GPU is having to pump out 6.3x as many pixels, so it is no surprise that it runs better at a lower resolution.

I got quite good at using the sight to drop bombs accurately tonight, I don't mind that it might not have had that function IRL, it adds a string to its bow, it still makes a pretty bad bomber anyway!

If you bind the "tactical drop on" switch to a hotas button and press it without lifting the saftey switch first then the switch moves to the up position but the red arming light does not come on and bombs will not be armed. Grrr I think it should automatically open the arming cover so you don't have to bind 2 commands to open it or at least allow it to arm the bombs when it is showing in the on/up position.

I didn't realise there was a different bug thread for training missions, if this can be moved there. Could also be a duplicate.

I do not find the new value of -2.0 good at all. Rounds fly over the target. I am finding -1.84 very good now and rounds land where I put the pipper.

In the short landing version at least. All the instructions say the carrier is on tacan channel 44x but I checked in the mission editor and it is actually using 46x for the USS Tarawa. Pretty confusing.

I'm petty sure I am not doing this wrong because I have tried it in a few missions including the carrier take-off training and the plane just will not move. Ahh just figured out it is the wheel chocks that need to be removed before you start your engines! There is no mention of this in the training mission, I think it need to be added to the instructions because I cannot be the first person to be confused by this!

I find this happens a lot too after a few runs, I find if I turn the laser off and then on again it fixes the problem. it is like the laser is auto turning off after a few attack runs but with no indication on the HUD or TGP that that has happened!

Thanks! Why have they changed the default gain? It was like trying to find a black cat in a dark room.

Yeah I have found setting it to -1.55 to be like a sniper rifle compared to the default, rounds can go a little long if you are very close to the target but way better than them falling short every time.

I cannot wait to see some DCS benchmarks with AMD RX 6800 that have 16GB V-Ram, also paired with a AMD 5900X cpu it should run DCS VR alot better than current top GPU and CPU's.

Sorry to hear that some people have been having trouble with their Quest 2's. I am have having fun with my Quest 2 and DCS with Virtual Desktop (although my 13 year old Q6600 CPU only gives me about 24 FPS in VR) The Quest 2 is an amazing piece of technology for the price and you can read all the dials and screens almost like being there. One fun thing I did in the A10C is stick my head thought the floor and release that in the A10 you are basically just riding on-top of a giant cannon! Really makes you appreciate the power between you legs! I'm hoping to treat myself to a new gaming rig with a AMD ZEN 3 in it for Christmas! then I will be playing in VR all the time.

Ahh he didn't say what year! :megalol:

I think LOMAC used to have a save option but it often didn't worked that well, (a bit like the playback track system) so I guess that is why they dropped the save system.

How much RAM do you have? I have 8GB and I wonder if it is running out and crashing. Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

Thanks this is useful, I like that you can keep some of the force feedback spring tension while trimming. Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

I Just installed Freds new firmware and it does feel more accurate to be able to hit things an uses the throttle as a collective! great stuff! Has anyone here got SimFFB working on Windows 10? I had to reinstall my PC after wiping my C: drive out in a "cloning accident". When I try and run the 64bit version of SimFFB I get this: If I try and copy the MSVCR100.dll from \Windows\Syswow64 to \SimFFB directory that message goes away. but then I get this: The 32bit version sort of runs but doesn't detect my FFB joystick (I think because it is running on 64bit operating system) This is so frustrating because SimFFB is the only way I like to fly the KA-50 with my G940! EDIT: So I managed to fix this by downloading this https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=14632 I thought I had done that earlier but must have accidentally downloaded the x86 (32bit) version. But I still get the no FFB Error! Edit 2: I fixed it by installing the Logitech flight software (Which I didn't want to do because it splits the controller into 2 devices and I will have to remap all my buttons in DCS! :( )

Grr has anyone here got SimFFB working on Windows 10? I had to reinstall my PC after wiping my C: drive out in a "cloning accident".

I know this is 4 months old thead, but did you have the power brick plugged in? I see no second wire in your pics??? They joystick needs a 24v DC power supply as well as the USB cable to work.

I was running DCS fine on a hanns.G 1920x1200 display. When I switched to a Samsung 1920x1080 if I now tick full screen the game gets stuck at the DCS World splash screen and never loads into the menu.

I have a flaming Cliffs licence but I still gt the message about F15C and SU27 being expired! very annoying!
