So I tried the .bak method to isolate the issue, and it seemed to work. So I'm going to input my binds to the new folder, reset my settings, and see if that works for me.

I was able to connect to Burning Skies. I was not able to connect to Blue Flag Caucasus and I tried deleting the shaders as you advised. I had the A-4 mod installed, so I deleted that before trying to be safe. I've attached the crash log from the BF connect attempt. dcs.log-20190109-231936.zip

So I have never had issues with DCS and connecting to servers and missions before, so I'm a bit at a loss of what to do. I tried a repair, update, and can't really think of what else to try. I just reinstalled the game on an SSD, and it was running fine before at least the last beta update. I can load into SP missions just fine so far. When I load into MP, I get the load scren, the map screen, then a black screen when I normally get the slot screen. Then it CTDs on me. Once it crashed hard enough that the black screen never went away and I had to reboot. dcs.log-20190109-020439.zip dcs.log-20190109-021315.zip dcs.log-20190109-021750.zip

It would be normal for them to drop a quick guide to get you a basic understanding of how everything works. Manual usually comes with the module.

Well my hope is that it hits on the 19th or 21st. Less because I want it sooner than later, but I would really like to hear about the Heatblur teams getting Christmas off this year. I feel like they've been busting ass between making the Tomcat come to life and doing awesome work on the Viggen. Honestly, I'd be ok if they announced that they were taking a few days off around Christmas just to have the break. They deserve it, in my opinion.

I think they have something special for the backseat planned., Maybe a dedicated stream to showcase it. After all, that's where the real magic is going to be, and part of me thinks the backseat is going to be the more difficult seat to really nail down. So I don't think it's because it's not ready to show off, but that they're keeping it for a special thing. Honestly, it's got me more excited not being able to see it yet.

Go into the options and I think it's under the gameplay options, you can change this from the NATO symbols to the Russian ones. Those will be placed showing what direction they're pointing.

The only downside to this is that most of the things people put on their jet are not going to be polite phrases. Probably why they haven't done it yet.

I wish we could have a button to put and toggle between max zoom and regular zoom, much the way it is implemented in BMS. That would free up the Slider on the WH throttle for radar elevation control, Tomcat DLC control, trim axis, all sorts of stuff. I just also think it's a much more practical way to implement the view zoom than a slider or axis. I've never found a control that does this in the game, so if it already exists, I'd love to know where it is! Ideally, it would be a toggle between RShift+Num* and NumEnter. Right now we have the two commends, but if we could have a single command that toggles between them, that would just be wonderful. Cheers

And if I understand correctly, the LANTIRN won't snap to a signature like the LITENING will. So the RIO will have to control the pod and keep it on target until impact.

Finally DCS carrier ops are taking on aspects better than BMS has. Now if we only get the ATC up to the same spec. This is very exciting, thanks for creating it!

So my friend and I were poking and prodding at the LMAV to see what we could do with it, and we discovered a few things that were potential bugs. I just want to make sure they get reported. When using the maverick, when you have the laser spot screen up in the store page, if you hit the A/A button it brings up a slewable view of a maverick camera. I have not changed the lua that people were changing in hoggit to get IR mavs, it worked for both of us with the stock files as they are in the update. Didn't think to get a screenshot, but it's easy to reproduce. When the last mav is launched, you still get the MAV LKD message on the HUD when A/G mode is selected. I forgot to get a screen shot of this. When using the HMD and the 9X, when looking forward with my head, the HMD is on because the cross is below the HUD. When holding this view, and turning the HMD off, the 9X seeker stays slewed to the bottom of the glass until the HMD is back on and I look up. I have a screenshot illustrating what I mean, could not get the blinking seeker view in a screenshot without the HMD. And the JTAC seems to be able to see through small hills, but the laser stops at the hill, making missiles miss. The track file I uploaded should show this. I put up screenshots showing the missiles tracking to the same patch of dirt where the laser stops. If I can further explain anything or upload anything, or try to recreate anything, please let me know. I would love to help. server-20181107-194319.zip

Bind keys, learn cold start, a couple patterns around the airfield, then go try the boat. Same process I did with the Hornet.

There will be a JESTER radial command menu for navigation (seen in the release video) and a command to have JESTER put in coordinates for a new waypoint (as told here)

I can't imagine a single reason we can't expect modex to be modifiable. They announced it would be nearly feature complete, and this seems like a really minor feature to not have available. The real question is how many skins we'll have on release, and when we get that sweet template.

So I haven't flown the Viggen in some time, so I'm not sure how old this issue is. When I spawn in the Viggen when I am starting in a bunker, I am always backwards and pointing to the back. While that isn't the biggest issue, because I can back out just fine, it still seems like something that should be fixed.

I have found that not using the CombatFlite luas helps/eliminates this. I haven't had an issue since I started only using the PNGs.

ATFLIR, AG radar, HARM, JHMCS, SLAM E/R, ACLS You're a meanie for making me choose just one.

I have the slew set to the china hat, coolie switch and the action button set to ministick press.

If you set the JTAC to engage group and manually select laser as the designation, I've gotten it to kind of work. It'll work once, and when you try to go for a new target, he'll say laser on, but you can never pick up the spot after the first one.

The pocket guide has channels for 1.5 and 2.2.

So we were trying to land at Sochi using AWLS, and could not get any signal at all. So I went back later and tried it at Senaki, and it worked no problem. I actually quite like the Harrier for ILS approach. At first I thought it was because Sochi didn't have TACAN, and Senaki does. But we also tried at Nellis, and received no signal at all. Dunno if it isn't implemented on 2.2 or not.

The ship should have its own TACAN and some kind of ILS/AWLS (super interested to see how/if that's implemented), but like they said, some ship assets aren't implemented right now. Just like the bug where if you're on the ship, and it stops, you get launched off the front because the plane keeps moving. That was a hilarious discovery.

Came to report this, glad to hear the fix is already on the way.

I have the Lat/Lon to a friends house. I plan to drop a pair of JDAMs on it. :megalol:
