I am sorry, for some reason the video I copied and pasted did not produce the one I had. http://spitfiresite.com/2012/01/modification-xxx-beer-carrying-spitfires.html I did find an article about the XXX (beer) Modification but not the video I was looking for. It was not in my history either. Oh well, You can at least see the photos in the link

I tried that, and no bombs are available. I do not know how to add one ???? I do not see fuel tanks either. I get a choice of nothing or EMPTY only *******************EDIT********************** I did what the video said about adding NEW and now in "Instant Action" I get to pick the new and I have a 500 pd bomb. Im all set now.

Im confused !!! The Dora gives me a 500 pound bomb, but any time I try to load up anything in the K4, only gas and ammo are available, never bombs ? I just found this one minute after I posted: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=142901 Says no bombs were added, until later but I could change things in the livery and add one myself. I saw this: But that is if you are using a editor, Im just using the cold start or take off in single player mode.

Thanks for the manual. I need to read up on cooling and things and I appreciate the manual.

1981, I bought a Atari 400 and a space game called Star Raiders Then in 1988, an Amiga 500 game called Fighter Duel Pro 2 I also had fighter duel one, but the graphics were really bad. ********************EDIT********************* Now that I have looked over all of the posts, I think there were three games I saw that I have not owned. Two of them were for a spectrum computer.

Thank You SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for the great info, I like it all and its very useful !

There are only two mods I dont have, but I find that I buy helicopters and then dont fly them. The Trackir5 and pedals were 300 dollars and the joystick was 140 and most of the mods I bought on sale, but I wanted Mig21 so bad, I couldnt wait for the sale that is on now. Worth every penny, and I cant wait for DCSW2 !

I had been waiting for the sale, but just couldnt hold off any longer, and bought the Mig21 at full price and I am happy to support the makers at that price. It was so worth it !!! Now the only problem is that the modern jets blow you out of the sky, so you have to hide in valleys and pop up.

I wondered why Nvidia Inspector does not have ANY DCS mods shown, not black shark or anything ? I wish they did ! \

LOL about the name thing !! Very funny

Your work looks really great ! I wish you the best of luck with getting something done that makes you happy !

I also liked knowing how to do this, so Thank You very much !!!! I find it especially hard to read instructions in mulitplayer as its always right between the center and right screen and hard to read sometimes. **********************************EDIT ****************************** The lua worked perfect and I want to thank you very much, as now the center screen is where I can see the first screen showing what to do for the mission and then the actual flight sim goes to three screens for flying and its perfect !!!

I wanted to know where is the best place to get a deal on buying just the Warthog Stick, as I cant afford both right now. For some reason I thought that FRY's and MicroCenter was only for going to the store and that they would not ship anything to you ? I went on Microcenter site yesterday and it seems they will ship ? I see others post that they have purchased things at quite a bargain to normal prices and would appreciate any help with this as to sign up for a wish list or have some way of knowing when there is a sale. Thank You for any help !! Mike

Many times after I take off, one of my wheels will not go up. Granted I may hit the rudder a little here or there, but Im not braking at all. Its kind of hard to believe that a plane that could land in the grass would have a wheel strut or something break from a little rough treatment going down a runway ??? I feel like just always starting over as having a wheel down makes me slow and just not aerodynamic enough to continue on, for dog fighting. Any advice would be very helpful. Mike

I am running two EVGA 680 4 gigs in SLI and they are both overclocked and water cooled.

I had problems with the Dora T/O for a very long time, and a really nice guy offered to have me go on his private server and while he sat in his dora on the side of the runway and zoomed in on me...coached me as to what to do and it was like a miracle that after a few hundred tries by myself, He had me up in no time and it was just so great to have a teacher, as others can write and tell you what to do, but not being able to see what the outside of the plane is going makes it tough. I purchased the Mig21 a week and a half ago and flew it for three days, and when I went back to the Dora I had problems once again. Now Im doing ok as Im back to practising and I find that just looking at the gauges and keep my attention just on going straight down the runway with no brakes, full throttle and just slight rudder, and then let the stick go forward....up I go. I did find that my stick was too sensitive and would lift up too much and I would stall and crash to the left, so I changed the curves to 30 for my pitch and it really made a big difference. Now Im down to a 15 pitch and eventually will go back to zero. I wonder if you still have on in the options first dcs panel the auto rudder and assists ? Turn them off when you are learning. Good Luck

Air Conditioning not wanted here I guess I just needed some cool air ?

I bought everything on sale, but this time I just could not wait for the Mig21 so I just paid full price and its worth every penny ! I really look forward to 2.0 and I just wish that instead of DX 11, that it was going to be DX12.

I thought I would have to change out my mother board too, but that is not the case. The hdmi on my mb is not what I would use, its the HDMI slots on the GPU's and I was mistaken to think that the MB one was what was needed. Sorry.:pilotfly:

I have sli 4 gig 680's and have wanted the rift in consumer version for a long time, and they released the specs for it two days ago and I guess I am out of luck. They mentioned you need to have a 970 gpu or better. For the full Rift experience, we recommend the following system: * NVIDIA GTX 970 / AMD 290 equivalent or greater * Intel i5-4590 equivalent or greater * 8GB+ RAM * Compatible HDMI 1.3 video output * 2x USB 3.0 ports * Windows 7 SP1 or newer http://www.octavainc.com/HDMI%201.3.htm OH HECK, I just realized that the HDMI port comes out of the GPU and not the MB !!! LOL, silly me !!! The one on my mb is for audio I guess, but the new VIDEO card will have the 1.3 Sorry about the confusion.

No one knows.....

After reading about the radiator, I know that Ralt+A for 15 seconds and all, but I have sat in the cockpit and searched all over and for the life of me cannot find that switch anywhere ? I started to think I must be wrong and that I did not read this about the Dora, but that it must have been the K4 or something but coming back here and seeing this again, I know it was here. I may have read about a Cowling thing somewhere else, but that is what I get for looking for info about a ton of DCS planes. I sure like that I can get help on-line and I appreciate it very much.

Great Info !!! I have really bad eyesight and really have a very hard time keeping another plane in sight... Also it seems every time I join a MP session, Im always alone and never as a wingman. Many times I never even see an enemy. I finally got to the point where I can take off in the dora fairly well and that was a very happy time, Landings are getting better, but most of the time it seems like I get one wheel that wont go up after I T/O and I wonder why that is ???? Im so glad to have a place like this to discuss my favourite PC flight Sim !!! I was a little hot last night, so it was really great for a mustang to provide me with a little air conditioning for my flight home.

I did the flip over to the left about a hundred times and got pretty mad, I had a guy sit on the runway to the side and watched me while we were chatting on TS3 and He gave me hints as to what to do. I started getting very good at take offs and then bought the Mig21. After 3 days of messing with that, I came back to the Dora. Now Im learning that watching the gages is more important then looking outside the plane. I used to use the brakes a lot, now I dont touch them. I sit on runway and just go full throttle and keep it straight with just the rudder. I count to ten and allow my stick to go forward and just put a tiny bit of right aileron and the plane lifts up on its own. If you try to pull back to much on the stick, you stall and flip over the the left...every time. Good luck and once you finally get the hang of it, You still have to keep it in the back of your mind to pay attention to what you are doing.:pilotfly:

Why cant I take off like this with the Dora ????? https://www.facebook.com/TheAlaskaLife/videos/954452217920176/
