Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not going for out LED's yet awhile. This will be my first venture and my funds are v limted.:thumbup::) do you know how extra boards are 'seen' by the game?

:helpsmilie:Hi I am about to take the plunge and try building my own generic pit. any advice welcome. I am also thinking of starting with a bu0386 chip. Am I correct in thinking that the game DCS or lockon will recognise several of these chips at once? Any help welcome please.:thumbup::)

IIRC what I did was to make the track. say it is 45 mins long. Then video edit it with extremely fast forward to the position you want say at minute 42. then return to normal speed for the scenes that you wish to record. now save this track as your 'target' track. now AVI, but from min 42. the sound will fast foward to min 42 and the avi will start at the right place... I am fairly sure that this is the only way to do it... I also used to leave mine to 'cook', often for several hours if necessary. my videos are on youtube under the id chirpychappy if you want to see them (they are a bit pedestrian i'm afraid... but my rig does not have much in the way of 'legs') hope this helps

avi recording IIRC you can start the avi recording from any point in the track just set the start time to what you want... it is on the avi record page somewhere... i can't remember where... but it looks as if you can't overtype it, but you can (same with resolution) regards col

Muchos gracias mr viper Col...

I'm sure this has been asked before:- Is it possible to create one's own moving trains? If not, does anyone know the location of a moving military laden (ie tanks etc) train? please col. :smilewink:

Thanks for help.. LP nice name...

After all this time I have finally got around to try the failure options... But I can't seem to get them to work... Is there a functional explanation somewhere... please help (i tried left engine after 1 min within 10 min 100%. but nothing went wrong) Col... I've now got it to work but not on Su-25t...yet It's a bit scary it all works except for Su-25t. Am I missing something or is this not implemented for Su-25t? col...

Can anyone tell me what the localizer beam index and glide path index letters represent (on the russian huds during ILS I mean?) pretty please Col

Tnaks bwaze fro prompt help... if I understand you I do not anything in the simulator but using the controller will simulale keyboard strokes. do you know how will this work with the anaolog inputs? Many thanks Col

I have seen this mentioned in someone's post a while back. If anyone has used it can you explain exactly how it connects/interfaces with lockon/DCS, please. I am thinking of having a try... But not sure how to go about it.... rergagds Col

real paper Why not have real paper on a real knee? just a bit more immersion regrads to all col.

Sorry about this I feel a bit of a tit! I lost the 'how to' to allow cameras to position below ground level... can anyone tell which statement to change in which config file.. pretty please... I'm always losing things... getting old... col. (if i was a colonel i'd be col.col.)

Thanks for your replies... as to lockon I am hoplelessly addicted. The amount of possibilities is awesome. When I was a kid I went to biggin hill for aircrew selection (to Cranwell I hoped) sadly my eyes let me down. major specs. This is the closest I will ever get to the real thing... Regards col

Hi all Is there a list of IAF postions for all airfields...? For instance as far as I can tell for SAKI the IAF is somewhere over the sea. and you must approach (using ILS) from over the water. is it poss to set up from the other direction or is it a requirement to approach from only that direction (ie from the west)? if so is that the case for all airfields. I understand tha one can land manually from any direction (ps how do I change from junior member to member?) regards to all Col.:helpsmilie:

As always many thanks d'loading now... this sim and community is the best. Such praise sounds corny, but only the cognoscenti really understand tyhe depth of praise col...

Or how about armoured fighting vehicles..... as well as

Brill... I wish I was good enough to join... Please will the carrier have night landing lights. pretty please. good luck Col.

Thanks for prompt reply shamandgg I must be more careful where I put things kind regards col.

:helpsmilie:A while back someone gave me, I think, a USMC manual with radio codewords as an appendix. (eg slammer for aim-120 etc). I seem to have misplaced it. Would the kind individual point me in the right direction again please. col

Thanks for reply. will try it and keep you posted col

when I run dxdiag part of the result shows:- Processor: AMD Athlon XP 2400+, MMX, 3DNow, ~2.0GHz The ~2.GHz I presume refers to the cpu cycles. My question is:- Is this value taken from preset text in microcode, or does dxdiag run an actual test on the cpu? I would appreciate any advice or help... Col

Thanks for replies guys. col

I am thinking of updating my system. Can anyone say if it is worthwile getting a dual core? I seem to remember a thread about this somewhere on LOMAC or IL-2, but can't find it now... please help with advice.. col

Thanks for your prompt reply geier have the edge again and at last my shakes are going.... regards col
