So I've noticed that when the Cowl flaps are fully open I have this issue. If they're closed, or mid position, the flaps, wing fold, and tail wheel work. So to test this, start with the cowl flaps fully open, and attempt to spread the wings. For me the wings get stuck. I close the cowl flaps, and they spread as they should. This is also the same when it comes to flaps and the tail wheel getting stuck down.

Thanks!

Can anyone post the updated EFM.lua? I've been trying to figure out where in the scripts to paste the new line to bind the wing fold to the flaps unsuccessfully. Thanks

F14 not authorized / antivirus / false positive
sideshow replied to Semaphore's topic in Bugs and Problems
For me, excluding the DCS folder as a whole did not work. First, the folder was already in my exclusions. Second, when I ran a repair it immediately flagged the .dll and wouldn't install it. I had to disable Windows Virus and Threat Protection, run a repair, exclude the F14-HeatblurCommon.dll file, and then turn virus and threat protection back on. At least for now that works. -
enable adfcs Took off, but it's all over the place
sideshow replied to Migparts's topic in Bugs and Problems
You need to enable the system select knob to both on the trim panel. The startup tutorial doesn't mention this. I tried taking off and had the same issue. The taxi takeoff tutorial mentions it. -
Hello. DCS Multithread has worked fine for me until 4/7. I flew a mission, quit, and tried loading the sim again. From then on out I've been getting a crash at the splash screen. It's like the sim doesn't even attempt to load. I fly in VR with an HP reverb. I know there's a crash affecting Oculus users, but I don't have an Oculus. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. dcs.20240410-041117.crash dcs.20240410-041117.log

fixed M14 Olive does not take off.
sideshow posted a topic in F/A-18C Raven One: Dominant Fury campaign
On Mission 14 I start up, head to cat i when directed, and fly to marshall. The rest of the group radios in as they push and leave the stack. I check the boat and there's 3 tomcats on deck, Olive, and the one hornet that has the VMFA-122, think the stand in for the ea6b on deck. All the jets are turning with pilots visible in them. However, they don't take off. I sat at marshall waiting for Olive, and got the play-by-play on strike as the Tornados arrived and, and one gets shot down. Am I doing something wrong? Will try pushing to the tanker and seeing if that changes anything. Running Open Beta 2.9.1.48335. -

It started working again for me the next day. -
fixed Invalid Username of Password (ED Website OK)
sideshow replied to Dangerzone's topic in General Bugs
Good to know. Thought I got hacked. -
I renamed the folder and started DCS. Once I switched to VR I got the same black screen. I tried updating windows, but it says I'm up to date. My I7 processor isn't compatible with Windows 11 per windows updater. I also checked my drivers for the Oculus and graphics card. They're showing up to date too.

I updated to Open Beta 2.7.17.29140 and now have a black screen once the game starts. I get the UI music, therefore I don't believe it's a crash. The screen is black in both the headset and monitor. I went into the config folder and deleted the options LUA which reset the sim back to 2D. However, when I put it back into VR I get a black screen. I attached my logs. Any help would be appreciated.

Toggle keybind needed for many controls
sideshow replied to Flying Toaster's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
I’ve started remapping everything in RSmapper to simplify things. The key binds are a bit much, but so far my only complaint. -
reported ACLS F18 CPL Autopilot not working as intended....my fault ?
sideshow replied to Darkenmass's topic in Bugs and Problems
I have yet to get ACLS to work. I set everything up in mission editor. In mission I get and follow all of the DATA queues. When I get the ACL ready command on the MFD, and the boat says "switch mode 2" I engage auto throttle and couple the auto pilot. Right under 6 miles, at 1200 feet and on angle. Instead of getting the CPL P/R, I get CPL HDG and the aircraft starts climbing. I feel like I must be missing one little step. Any suggestions? -
I was wondering if that would be the case. I only had a short time to try it out, so didn’t dig to far into it after I ran into the issue.
