Hello There, today I tried to just jump into the training tutorial. There are a lot of pointers missing, mostly where it says "while you doing this, monitor this and this gauges/parameters (list of appr 4 parameters)", but in most cases there is no pointer, where to look. Thanks for adding in those pointers.

Didn't read this DCS manual yet, but russian or european aircraft VVIs show climb and descend in m / seconds, not hundreds of meters per minutes.

I'm quite sure if they would have fixed it, they would have loudly announced. You were just lucky this time, that's all, I guess...

Today I started VA and VAICOM after longer absence. Both said update available. I simply downloaded the new VA installer 64 bit, started and installed it. Apparently it went to the old place, in the Program Files (x86) directory. I can start it, and VAICOM also fires up (update accepted for that too), but I can't start "Chatter", altough Voice Attack recognizes the command (and I take out checkmarks from "Link to Radio Power" in VAICOM EX tad CHATTER section. What am I doing wrong? EDIT: solved. Had to switch off Redirect. (Previously I used Rift, "Redirect ON" always required to hear the chatter from the Rift. Now with a G2 it doesn't requires Redirect to be on. But another question why can't I execute commands like "Request Launch!" ? Voice Attack listening window says: "Command 'request launch' is currently disabled for this session and was not executed." Uhmmm... what?

ED is chasing this bug since 2018 now, and the community keeps reporting it again and again since then. In the Bug section, look up "pipper" or "gunsight" in Search, and you will see. First reported in June 2018. Reply then (and since) was usually "missing track file" and/or "can not reproduce"... Just sayin'...

Marty McFly inverse solution?

Exactly as sLYFa says. For instance "Push button 13" means switch to preset Channel 13. So in that sentence "...approach button 15..." mean go to Channel 15, on which you will be able to talk to Approach.

Also don't forget, the RL and the TM HW speedbrake switch is momentary (spring return on this "side") in aft position, when you release it, it goes back to the middle (OFF) position, while when you push it forward, it stays forward like a switch does, or as you should hold a button, should you assign Retract function to a simple button other than the speedbrake switch...

Messages description (for proper timing) would be appreciated very much. Which message appears when?

Uhhmmmm... I think I better go get some coffee... Sorry...

Why not asking directly Bankler himself in his topic? Bankler training mission topic

After all, did you try finishing all steps that the TM calibration tool asked you to do, and then check if it works OK?

Please go into Controls / Settings for A-10C Sim, and look up in the Warthog Throttle column what is assigned to "Left Engine Throttle set OFF" and "Right Engine Throttle set OFF"? Should Be Button 30 and 29 respectively (I'm just guessing the sides, maybe other way around)

Then it is probably wrong mapping of Idle/cutoff detent on your Warthog...

I guess speed treshhold is 160 kts, if gear is not down, and throttle is at or near idle. If that's the situation Cooler is talking about...

Huh! Thanks...

Guidance can make "wind corrections" only as long the GBU is falling through the sky, and can make it open up at the point, where the little submunitions would be right over the target (at the altitude you've set it up). After the submunitions disperse, and are descending on small parachutes, there is no way anything could guide the submunitions onto the target, "against" the wind. So actually you need to Kentucky windage and offset your aiming point upwind (depending on opening height set by you), then considering surface wind direction and strength so much, that after opening, the wind blows the submunitions under parachutes over the targets by the time they blow up and start to seek for targets.

Hay Bankler, great tool, great update ! Is there any documentation about the options in the menus, what does what? Sorry, if missed it... Thanks

Thanks... and what about my "clouds" question?

Hi GUys, any word on this ever since? I just flew the A-10C the other day and found this change myself...

Hay BD, don't wanna be a whiner, but just want to second DimSim: with the new clouds Mission 18 seems to be pretty close to impossible for me too... Is there a generic cloud setting option in DCS maybe I don't know of, that could be toned down? How the F-16 choose their target of opportunities? In other words, how will I know, what they destroyed maybe from "my" target list? Thanks

Roger, wilco...

Hay BD, sorry if you answered this already somewhere else, and I just missed it, but did you simply change the original A-10C missions so that they could be played with the new II Tank Killer too, or did you also modify the default weapons loadouts for the A-10C II Tank Killer campaign, so that the missions utilise the new advanced weapons as much as possible, instead of the old ones? I know I can change it manually in each mission, but having an advanced loadout by default would be nice. Just asking...

Hay BD, does the ED staff know about this bug? I never read about it before here on the forum, only heard about it from you. Or should someon officially "complain" about it in the DCS World Bug section? Thanks for any info

Oh, sorry.. I don't know anything about the ME, sorry for the false "solved" message.
