  2. I am having the exact same issue that you have described. Have you found a solution? From what I can tell it may be mission related, on certain servers I can load in "fly" on some missions right away but on the same server with a different mission it takes about 10-15 minutes if I am lucky and don't "time out". I have tried many things and checked the common culprits with out any luck. I will keep you in the loop if I find a solution and please let me know if you have had any successes.
  3. It may actually be that even thought I pick an aircraft it is not assigning me to it and I am still a spectator? Once i select an aircraft I than select briefing and it shows the briefing and the Red FARP if I click the X to close the briefing i can use F-10 and view all units on the map and F-2 to cycle all Red and Blue units views. This doesn't seem like it should happen.(but as stated before if I click fly DCS hangs) How often do the missions change? Is it timed or is it if one side or the other completes the objectives? Or is it on a schedule, if so whats the schedule? Maybe it I know the schedule I can at least know when and what missions are active?
  4. On the ACG server there are 2 missions that I am unable to fly on Springfield and Ossetia. When these missions are active I am able to connect to the server, select a role or chat and read the briefing. As soon as I click "fly" DCS freezes/hangs and I have to force quit DCS. All other missions on this server work fine with no issues, only problem is with the 2 mentioned above. Has anyone else had a similar issue on this server or any server? Does anyone have any tips, ideas or suggestion I may try to resolve this issue? Is there a file or log I could post that might help to identify the problem?(There is not a crash log since I have to force quit the game)
  5. Thanks and I need a bit of help. First thanks for the great server. Unfortunately I am not always able to enjoy it, there are now 2 missions that I am unable to fly on Springfield and now Ossetia. When these missions are active I am able to connect to the server, select a role or chat and read the briefing. As soon as I click "fly" DCS freezes/hangs and I have to force quit DCS. All other missions work fine with no issues, only problem is with the 2 mentioned above. Has anyone else had a similiar issue? Does anyone have any tips, ideas or suggestion I may try to resolve this issue? Is there a file or log I could post that might help to identify the problem?

    Depression sight

    I have been finding it difficult to find the best gun sight depression settings as well. Mainly with bombs(Mk-82) so I typically just use 80 and and always try to start at +5000 above target.(and still miss after lots of practice) This is not always practical or the best option. I have referenced a few different chart including the ones posted here with very little success. Even with rockets setting depression around 10-15, I still end up in a suicide dive and pulling up and the last second if I really want make sure I am on target.(This is a dangerous and ill advised maneuver) There has to be a logical equation as to what to set the depression to. It would seem if you had all the variables i.e. Alt, Speed, Dive Angle, etc etc and you enter them into an equation it would give you a consistent accurate setting. This would be useful when spotting targets on the fly and quick calculator skills. Has anyone tried crunching the number to see if such an equation exists? Yes please any advise, tricks, opinions, for all types of weapons would be valuable.
  7. Thanks Airdog, I was missing the second piece of code that goes into the AN_ALR87_init.lua file. Once I added, it works. Thanks.

  9. This is the original lua I had last time I played, I can not remember if the RWR worked at that time but I have to believe it did otherwise I would have stopped and tried to fix it at that time. Right_MFCD works RWR does not. _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('F-5E'); Description = 'F-5E' Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 5760; height = 1080; viewDx = -0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 5760 / 1080; } } RWR = { x = 5760; y = 120; width = 640; height = 480; } RIGHT_MFCD = { x = 6400; y = 120; width = 640; height = 480; } UIMainView = Viewports.CenterThis is the the new one that the RWR does not work on either. Every thing else works fine. _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('F-5E Alt'); Description = 'F-5E Alt' Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 5760; height = 1080; viewDx = -0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 5760 / 1080; } } RWR = { x = 6160; y = 40; width = 400; height = 400; } RIGHT_MFCD = { x = 5760; y = 40; width = 400; height = 400; } UIMainView = Viewports.CenterThis is a clean install of DCS, I have not edit any other files. Which actually could be a problem. RWR working as an export might rely on another file being edit that I have forgotten about over the years.
  10. Is it possible to export the RWR with the F-5 module? I know it is possible with other modules (ie A-10C, KA-50), I have experience exporting and creating multi monitor setups(editing .lua). I even have a .lua config file for the F-5E with the RWR listed as an export from the last time I played, but I can not remember if it worked and actually exported the RWR since it was over a year ago that I last played.(it does not work now) Being that it has been over a year with many updates to DCS, it may be possible that something has changed that I am unaware of. I went back to basics and consulted https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=70716 as a refresh and created a few new config .lua without any success. I can post the .lua to this thread later when I am home. In brief 1. Is it possible to export the RWR with the F-5 module? / Has anyone done it? 2. If so would you mind posting your .lua? Or giving me some insight. 3. Has there been an update to the way that you need to edit .lua's? I know it is very difficult for someone to help trouble shoot with limited info, so as stated I will post my .lua files later. Please ask me for any other info that you may need to help me solve the issue. Thanks in advance and its great to be flying again in DCS.
  11. Wrong thread I had too many tabs open and posted this in the wrong place. Re-posted https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=191502 Please see and respond in other thread. Mod/Admin delete this thread if necessary.

  13. My biggest problem with the temporary fix I posted earlier is that it moves the radio menus to the far right. This mod solves that problem. http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2019016/ (all credit to Snacko)
  14. This .lua show that if you remove the GUI= and UIMainView = GUI from your .lua monitor config file the map works as it should. Also it goes back to the stretching GUI across all three monitors which is not ideal. Su-25T.lua
  15. Same problem here, Do not know if Skatezilla has got the files and info he is looking for but I will post what I have.(NOTE this is actually a 4 monitor / 2 screen setup which creates the extra black space to the right on the screen shots.) debrief.zip Su-25_B.lua
