Thanks I didn't have the Beta installed just the updated release. Its all good, cheers!

I'm setting up the PTT as per your instructions. I'm not aware of the check box you are referencing when you say: *) IMPORTANT: if you are editing the command for RELEASE e.g. 'Transmit VHF1 released', check the box 'shortcut is invoked only when all buttons are released'. Store with OK. *) IMPORTANT: if you are editing the command for PRESS e.g. 'Transmit VHF1 pressed', do NOT check this box. I don't see a check box labeled 'shortcut is invoked only when all buttons are released'??

A basic question. I see that this Helios Profile has not been updated for some time and I'm wondering which versions of DCS it works with please. Does it work 2.0 Open Alpha? Does it work with the current release version 1.5.3? Thank you!

I'm interested in the Gazelle but this would be my first copter. I have the TM Warthog with pedals. The question is how will this be with a HOTAS? I'm not sure if specialized controllers (cyclic, collective, etc) are needed?

Sorry but this is a really basic question. Is Leavu3 for online play only or is this tool usable for offline single player missions? It seems to me that this is designed for multi-player teams? Thanks!

Does anyone have a reference for NTTR ILS showing the runways available? I tried a quick flight last night and ILS seems to be enabled in NTTR but I haven't been able to find a reference. I also saw some previous threads that indicated there were issues with NTTR ILS?? Cheers

I've been looking for reference material for ILS facilities? What runways are equipped? Is ILS in NTTR working? Some threads I came across indicated that there were issues.

OK Blaze what would be a MP group to start with? I'm in EST time zone and I would like to be with a group that is also willing to help me learn. Any suggestions?

Interesting. I thought that this might be a bug.

This is wrt 2.0 Open Alpha Please check if selecting Nav Modes keyboard 1 turns off your radar. This is what I've noticed. I've confirmed the keyboard commands in the controller settings. Anytime 1 is pressed the radar is also switched off. Thank You

Thanks Dr I'll give it another go and watch my positioning!

I've flown the first mission but no joy: 1 - Relief by FORD 5 and FORD 6 didn't occur? Or I missed it! We flew CAP around SP3 to Bingo fuel and the relief didn't appear. 2 - VUL time is 40 mins according to the brief. I should have paid attention to the clock in the cockpit but I would expect that the relief would arrive before the 40min point? Thanks!

So far I haven't engaged ECM in any of my flights. I've been focused on learning the radar and weapons. Any pointers on ECM employment?

Re flew the 4 head on targets and held my first launch till 9nm. Got off the other 3 quickly and had 3 kills and one damaged which I finished off with my cannon. So as you guys said the ticket is launch the 120 under 10nm!

Thanks for the advice. I launched as soon as I got the indicator so I was not within 10nm. I did have my speed up. I'll give it another try and launch closer in. Maverick great vid!!

I setup a Create Fast Mission in 2.0. I'm new to the F15C so I wanted to get familiar with the radar controls etc. I set it up so it was my single F15C against 4 SU 17s. We approached head on at similar altitude. I used to TWS to lock all 4 targets once I was within launch range of the AIM120 I launched 4 at the locked targets. Using TacView afterwards I find that all 4 were misses. The SU17s had to scatter but they evaded the AIM120s. Since I'm on the learning curve I wonder if using TWS was the right approach?

Right! I should have thought that :-)

Any suggestions/recommendations for F15C Warthog profiles until Polaris releases support for DCS 2.0??

I have 1.2 and 1.5ob installed, I'd like to uninstall 1.2. I'm fine using 1,5ob until the release version is available. If I uninstall 1.2 will I lose an activation for the modules I have? According to the 1.5ob download instructions: This open beta install will be complete version that resides in parallel to your release DCS World install and have separate configuration files located in Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\. So will it be possible to install the 1.5 release from 1.5ob or must I have 1.2 on the system? Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the explanation, I was curious more than anything else. I've been using your F15 profile in 1.5ob but I haven't seen anything major. Your approach makes perfect sense and I applaud your efforts in putting together such great content for the community.

Thanks for the heads up Polaris. What sort of issues are there with the 1.5ob that you are aware of?

Shaz I had the same issue - screen flash then goes to F2 outside view. What I did was press ESC and then Resume and after that when I made a call to ATC I no longer had the flash or the F2 view. No idea why that worked.

I'm getting the same message Unable to get value from URI I'm also running the 1.5ob. I edit the path as directed with Notepad++ but I still get the URI message. What additional information do you require to help me sort the isssue?

Looking forward to getting this installed! I've used 1.1 and found it to be a great mod. When I try to import the profiles (A10 or F15) I get an error: Error loading profile data These is an error in XML document (18,12) Any ideas? Thanks

I'd like to give this a try. Can some one please give me a couple of lines on how to install the campaign. Do I create a separate folder in my Saved Games\Missions? Thanks for your help!
