  1. Ah yes, that hadn't even crossed my mind somehow lol. Thanks dude! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Ah, my mistake. I think the expanded radios are just done in SRS for FC3 level aircraft but I'm not certain. Ciribob would be the guy to ask for certain, but I'd expect that the Harrier will only have 2 functional radios in DCS fully integrated/simulated like the real jet...and controlled within the Harrier once RAZBAM updates the radius modeling. I believe 30FM is just the dummy freq Ciri gave the Harrier since Comms 2 doesn't do a thing currently. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. From the pocket guide, re: the ODU... Option 2: This option is only available when the selected frequency is between 225.000 to 400.000 MHz. It toggles between AM or FM modulation. Otherwise it is blank. V/UHF Radio Set Control is still a WIP, I will search through the NATOPS manual later tonight and see what else I can find out on it.
  4. Embrace the realism and the immersion of operating multiple radios as the real guys would :thumbup: It's definitely a little bit of a learning curve but very quickly it becomes second nature to you just like everything else. Also, just a tip that I've found to help limit the comms overload a bit: While I always join in the 104th TS when flying, once I am loaded in to the server and on SRS comms I mute my mic and my sound. If someone wants to contact me to coordinate in flight, I request that they do so via SRS. Otherwise I catch myself having to work to figure out if someone is talking to me in SRS or in TS, and that is an unnecessary workload for me. TS is pre-flight, SRS is in flight.
  5. It really is a great thrill trying to do CAS pushed that close to the enemy. Without adequate CAP it causes you to really think about your strategy and plan your flight in advance...even then, it can all fall apart in the blink of an eye. It can be frustrating getting shot down over and over, but like you said, that's real life :thumbup: Another thing that will help immensely for CAP/CAS coordination, at least on the Blue side, will be the Harrier having two functional radios once RAZBAM updates for it. The Harrier is the current majority of blue CAS, but it's a massive PITA to flip back and forth between 257.8 and 140.0 on Comms 1. Once I can have both tuned on Comms 1 and 2, it will be so nice to have simultaneous coordination with my CAS guys on working the ground targets and be able to 1) stay apprised of the situation with CAP on 257.8 and 2) call for CAP on 257.8 when necessary. It's do-able now, it just causes a huge headache and breaks communications on 140.0 and you never really know what the CAP situation is looking like :doh:
  6. I think the Systray step must be where I am going wrong. Will give this a shot tonight, thank you sir! :thumbup: o7
  7. Would rather see a F-16, or any number of other Redfor multi-role or fighters before seeing a Super Hornet to complement the Hornet we are getting. Would it be cool to have a Rhino? Sure. But it's a ways down my list.
  8. Well shit, that ruins that idea then :doh: I do the same as you...I use them both.
  9. Turn the volume of the radio you have tuned to the ATC freq down then?
  10. Wonder if it will be adaptable to the VKB base?
  11. Bump for this...I've still been too stupid to be able to figure it out :doh:
  12. I got lucky and never felt even the slightest bit of motion sickness when I got my CV1 last August (within 5 seconds I was doing barrel rolls, pulling G's, etc like a mad man wow'd out of my mind) but I've heard many many times from people that did that JetSeats/ButtKickers help to reduce the effects substantially...you might want to give one of those a shot to continue to enhance your VR experience? :thumbup:
  13. Which option is this, please? Thank you!
  14. 104th Phoenix - Operation Longbow - Dynamic PvP Mission Yesterday with Coltrogue on GCI and Shadow on ATC was an absolute blast. One of the cooler DCS experiences I've had. Thanks to both of those guys for their efforts... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. This thread was the first announcement. Don't expect it until very late this year if not later, there's no date and there likely won't be for a while. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  16. Kneeboard Builder (windows app) Anyone else have trouble getting the Kneeboard position to change? I can't get the damn Kneeboard to move to the left edge (instead of the right) for the life of me. I've tried everything, saved and reloaded and tried again...nothing, though I'm sure I'm just missing something easy? Any tips would be appreciated, thx. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Can we have a-10c updated cockpit textures? Would be cool to have a retextured PBR'd cockpit for one of ED's signature products for sure. They've obviously got a million things going on, perhaps it can be added to the list for the future. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. 104th Phoenix - Operation Longbow - Dynamic PvP Mission So that's why my Voice Attack + VAICOMPRO wouldn't work the last couple days :doh: I'm glad I spent hours (literally 2-3 hours) yesterday uninstalling and reinstalling VoiceAttack, VAICOM, DCS 2.5 and then restarting and reloading DCS + Longbow over and over again (5-10 minutes a time) and tweaking a million different things with my computer trying to figure out what TF was going on. Wish I had just thought to simply check that Player Exports was turned back off again for some reason...didn't even cross my mind as I thought that ship had sailed. I'm an idiot. I also have a custom made JetSeat SE from Andre that should be in the mail any day now. Fingers crossed this setting goes back on in the very short term....otherwise I've wasted $285 under the assumption it was On for good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Introducing the VPC MongoosT-50 Throttle Wonder why VPC themselves said they weren't with the initial release then... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  21. Interested to hear this myself, I've had the thought a few times when I've had the itch to waste some money but I've never been able to rationalize the purchase versus performance...my thought has always been that it would perform the same, and that my GPU (albeit a 1080 Ti) would still remain as the bottleneck.
  22. Adriatic Sea Vietnam Baltic Sea (I am guessing that this is already under development by a 3rd Party)
  23. Seems perfectly logical to me!
  24. Confirmed, I was on comms with Shadow throughout the entire first engagement (I was on the ground). His post summarized exactly how it went down very well, will likely be 2-3 minutes of his DCS career he will never forget :thumbup: One of the first things he said after splashing the second guy was "Damn I wish I had that on video!" lmao :megalol:
  25. I absolutely cannot wait for the day I can use something with a small footprint on my finger/hand that mirrors the functionality of the current controllers, without having to physically be held in my hand like the Touch controllers. It's tough to make any sensible use of the Touch controllers currently when also using a stick and throttle...not to the fault of ED whatsoever, what they've done to implement this is a big/necessary step in the right direction.
