I have recently set up my Thrustmuster T.Flight Hotas X joystick so that I can set up my trim. I press joy_btn 12 and use the hat to control trim, however I am finding that when I go to trim my pitch the hat is too sensitive. I messed around with the fine tune in DCS world control setup but found it was taking way too long to set up the trim for level flight. However I want to know what affect the Trimmer force and shake has on joystick settings At present I have set the Trimmer Force to 25 and the shake to 15. To be honest I have no idea what they do. Can anyone advise me on this please. I have flown over my target several times while trying to adjust the pitch trim, so frustrating and challenging.

Recently I have been having difficulties starting the engine of the SU-25T in custom mission. However I do not have any issues with the training missions that come with DCS world. I access my missions through the mission menu then my missions. When I access the training mission under SU-25T it works fine but not under my mission. I created a small self design training mission designed to help me get used to using the weapons on a stage by stage basic. The mission have me ramp and taxi and take off to some stationary targets in which I would use unguided bombs to destroy them. However I cannot start the engines using any of the keys commands Rshift-Home, Ralt-Home or Rctrl-Home. I have also downloaded some mission created from other members and have the same issue with those missions as well. Can anyone advise me on this issue. Please note that I have check to see if it was the keyboard that was at fault, and used two other keyboards and found the same issue. I have a Razer DeathStalker Keyboard. Other keyboards tested was a ZIP keyboard and a Logitech G510 Gaming keyboard.

I guess if there is not solutions to this, then I will have to bite the bullet and either download DCS World from ED, and have two version of DCS World on my computer, or I just buy the module for my steam version. Thanks to those that have replied so far.

I have a copy of Black Shark 2 which I purchased in 2012. This was the upgrade version since I had Black Shark 1. I went to install it however it is asking that I install the latest version of DCS World. I had thought I accidentally deleted the black shark 2, when I upgraded my computer, and since then I have downloaded DCS World via Steam along with DCS - SU25 and DCS - A-10A. Am I able to install Black Shark 2 (upgrade) knowing that DCS-World is installed via Steam as I do not want to two copies of DCS World on my computer and I dont really want to pay an extra $39 to get the DCS-Black Shark 2 DLC from steam. Can anyone advise me on this situation please.

I have just received my Saitek Pro Flight Rudder pedals and would like some assistance with setting them up wiith DCS. When I access the control set up, the rudder control in Axis command is set to Rz, saitek, and Rz for my Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas X. or should I set it up under the flight commands. As I find that setting up left and right rudder in the flight commands the left rudder is not recognised, or do I need to use assign axis to set the pedals up in flight command. With the toe brakes do I set them to left and right brakes in the flight commands. Any assistance would be appreciated.

I have found a youtube video series however its not in english, but it look and sounds like arabic. So I am looking for a youtube mission creation stuff in english.

Just wondering whether or not there are any videos or detailed guides to creating missions and campaigns. I have searched youtube for mission but they seem to be either overviews or flight tutorials for most of the aircraft in game. I have been reading the dcs manual but things it need to complimented by some sort of tutorial video or even a little online tutorial on how to correctly place unit, created triggers properly etc. Has anything like this been done at all.

I have disabled my virus software, check my firewall and DCS is listed as allowed, but the Module manager is still missing from the menu.

Thanks Devrim, I think my wife would be happen too, as they only charging $149 for them plus postage. Thank again.

I am well sort off new to DCS world, and because I am enjoying the challenge of learning to fly the planes, I am just wondering what members feel is a good rudder pedals. I live in South Austrlia and there are not very many suppliers of flight rudder pedals and so I have to look outside of Adelaide to order mine. I have been looking at Saiteks Pro Combat rudder pedals, but where I usually get my stuff from cant seem to get any in Australia that doesnt need to be pre-ordered. However I was wondering whether or not the Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals would be suitable for use in DCS World. I need to make sure that they are otherwise my wife may well end my flying days. The Pro Flight Rudder Pedals are a little cheaper than the Combat Pro Rudder Pedals. Also could anyone in australia recommend a supplier to be able to purchase these rudder pedals. I have look at PC Case Gears in Melbourne, and they are looking into whether or not they can get the combat pro's in. But they are charging a pre-order cost of $149 AU for the Pro Flight Rudder Pedals. I have the Thustmaster T-flight Hotas X joystick with throttle component. Where the unit comes with joystick and throttle attached to each other, but the throttle assy come off the joystick assy so it can be like real thing. Any advise would be appreciated.

My DCS world online doesnt have the Module manager listed in the menu so I am not sure whether or not it should be there.

Thanks to everyone that has replied, given me much to think about. Sceptre, the aircraft I am talking about are the Su-25, Su-25T and the A-10A Thunderbolt II I am aware that I will need to map the control differently for the A-10A.

I have a thrustmaster T-flight Hotas X joystick, the one that has the throttle assembly that can be disconnected from the joystick. I would like some advise on what controls should be mapped to the joystick, apart from the normal axis controlls. At present I dont have rudder pedals but looking into it at present, but I am using the twist stick function for rudders. I have 12 buttons available, 4 are on the joystick, and 6 on the throttle assembly and 2 on the base. What controls should be mapped on the joystick and what should be left for the keyboard

thanks for that winz, will DCS know where the new locations is or do I need to do something to let it know where the savegame folder has moved to.

I am just wondering whether or not its possible to change the locations that DCS World games Saves are stored. At presents they are save to c:user/saved games/DCS World however I would like them to be saved on my main drive as my C: drive is my system drive. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for your replies, the informations supplied was fantastic, however what I am after is the ingame symbols for each of the arnament displayed on the pylons. Like the following. I guess I want to take the quick way round so that when I setup the payload, I can just look at the symbols, and automatically know what loaded on the pylons. And if I know what they are, and want to change the payload I will know what I have selected at a glance. Anyway thankyou for the fantastic informations that you all supplied.

I am just wondering whether or not there images available for the payload configurations. Im after the images that come up when you press Ralt +', which graphically represents the armament under is pylon. The reason I want them is so that I can quick reference the payload without having to Right Click on the pylon image so if I am happy with the payload then I dont have to use the pull down menu that is present with each pylon. Would much appreciate it.
