  1. Good to know thanks GB. I still need to look into the details of the Stored Heading function. At this point I only just barely know how it's used in DCS but the true how/when/why still eludes me.
  2. Most recent update also implemented INS alignment. Use the STD HEAD option (I think that's what its called) on the HSI page to align in 90seconds
  3. I've noticed this also. I'm only on Mission 5 but there have been a few missions where the time doesnt match
  4. It says 2.5.6 because that image was taken from today's Weekend Newsletter. It has nothing to do with release version
  5. I just played through Mission 2 and experienced the same behavior
  6. That's true but this campaign is simulating a US Naval deployment. I would say leave "ladder" as it is but provide a list of definitions of all terms used for the player to study beforehand.
  7. Great news, thanks NineLine!
  8. Are the new weather developments only focusing on clouds or are we looking at a more complete weather system overhaul?
  9. I just started the campaign and had the same problem. I could've sworn Saint tells me to follow him to the bow but then he goes off to the waist cats, so I follow him but then have the same problem as mentioned above. Will try this again tomorrow but I'll head to CAT 1 instead of CAT 4
  10. I think as long as your external lights are on then the fuel probe should have the light on automatically. I've never tested it but everytime I AAR my external lights are on.
  11. Ah yes thank you, that's what I was thinking of.
  12. I didn't think you could slew the TGP when the AGM-65 is selected
  13. Yes, this should be something that the user can toggle in the options menu. I'm very surprised it wasn't this way since the start.
  14. I think the point is that if you can't properly ID a target, even so much as to distinguish a civilian vehicle from a military vehicle, then you cannot engage a target using the ground radar alone. It may have other uses, and yes, it is another tool in the toolbox, but like any tool one has to consider its purpose, its strengths, and its weaknesses.
  15. Dude this looks awesome thank you! Where can I pick up the Persian gulf version? Cant seem to find it.
  16. Happy to report that I was now able to complete the first mission, AI units no longer stay invulnerable. Thanks Glyn, looking forward to playing through the rest of the campaign now!
  17. As other have said, it's not you it's just the way DCS is right now. I'm not smart enough to explain it all but it has something to do with the way things are rendered, colors and shading, pop in/pop out effects, etc... You may sometimes see something from far, then zoom in to get a better look and it vanishes. There are some nice Dot Label mods out there and you can make your own as well. This provides a subtle dot over the object to improve spotting abilities.
  18. I think it looks fantastic, great work! DCS will be getting a UI overhaul at some point but realistically, this at at the bottom of the priority list right now.
  19. Very nice!! Happy they made the decision to include Cyprus.
  20. By default I think L-Shift + F10 toggles labels. You can also assign this to any key or hotas button to suite your needs. Also, an extra tip that I never knew about for years, you can search the controls list by selecting "Search" in the Controls Menu Dropdown.
  21. I had the same problem where they stay immortal no matter what. Tested through multiple attempts. Also using Normal.
  22. Was pulling Gs today and didn't have this issue
  23. Excellent idea. Please ED, don't take forever to implement this. It seems pretty straightforward and in-line with current functionality
