One press, no matter the settings of the CMDS system, causes continuous chaff/flare release until low (20) then another press takes it to zero. This appears to be a bug in the stable version, and the open beta is fixed. For those of us boring people who fly the stable version, this makes dogfights unwinnable.

Really excited to D/L this last night, then uggh. I can't program any buttons on my X55 in the Fi6- it doesn't take/respond. Anyone else have a similar issue - fixes?

You'll need to do some folder stripping You will need to get to the core "Civil Aircraft" by opening the Civil Aircraft, then Civil Aircraft mod v... - THEN you will have the folder you want. You can open this as well and there should be a series of folders- backup one level and copy that folder, then delete the whole thing, and paste the 'clean' folder back in. At least that's what I had to do. Great work by the way!:pilotfly:

New computer- old one vaporized I just got my computer back from the shop after losing all my files to CERBER ransomware (it's a #$&*%^#(! While I have saved most of our pictures, and music (they were on another drive), the machine has been reformatted completely and all my DCS files are no more. I still have my serial numbers and emails from Eagle Dynamics confirming purchases, etc. (e-mails are a great thing if you aren't running for President). I don't have any way of de- activating my content as my computer has no files associated with DCS left. Does anyone know what I can do; I am planning to download everything later in the week at a friend's house (extremely fast cable internet). I don't mind using up an activation, I just want to be able to get the whole thing back where it was. Any help would be immensely appreciated. :pilotfly:

I agree- the mission map pdfs are a bit low on resolution- it would be helpful to have a map with a bit better detail as when looking at the scenery- it largely all looks pretty similar (not knocking the sim/campaign- but that's how the actual terrain is). The early review video (s) showed very cool playback tracks with wing trails , etc. like an improved version of Falcon 4's I have not been able to find this and it just seems like 10 missions period. I'll try F10 next time and see if that brings up the God's eye.. at 5:00 [ame] [/ame]

One improvement for the Red Flag Campaign Clearer mission maps would be helpful as I do well, except for crossing over the FEBA. To be able to recognize the features along the FEBA would be immensely helpful- especially when the Nav says you still have 85 miles to the next waypoint...

like everyone else.. Same thing- no traffic; hope that's addressed soon as I love this map!

Of course there are beautiful explosions in the air and on the ground, but the plane in three smoking parts every time looks a bit repetitive. I know this sounds petty, but it would be cool to have a number of different destruction styles to add to the immersion.

Missing campaign information I just downloaded the Red Flag, and so far I have one teensy problem- the mission guide/booklet that was supposed to accompany it is nowhere to be found. It would help immensely since the first mission calls on me to fly to the bullseye through the FEBA I'm forbidden from flying through- and I was shot apart before I reached it. I have not seen any evidence of the cool features from the video either. Anyone?

Go throught the "buy" button, and you will get to a screen where you can request serial #- click that; if you pre purchased you will get a valid serial. I could'nt figure out how to load it so I got out, restarted the Alpha, and after a few seconds it said I can download/install the campaign. Clicked on that and it loaded up.

Problem with vikers I am a noob to Ka 50, but spent many hours playing the old Janes Longbow and some time with the ARMA2 Longbow. I find that after targeting and killing a target with the viker, I am unable to fire another at the next locked target. Is this a glitch or am I not doing something I should?

Thank you so much! Wow- a very nice piece of work. I see you chose some of the same toggles as me. I wish there was a way to use one of the scrollers to scroll through the comms menu... Great work!:thumbup:

NTTR and DCS 2.0 I am contemplating pre purchase, yet I am a bit concerned- If I buy the NTTR map, will I have to shell out an additional 40 bills for DCS2.0, or new maps in 2.0? I know it sounds like a dumb question since 1.0 was free, but some clarification would be great..:music_whistling:

"Something with digital fly-by-wire and multi-role capability people want to fly and are interested in? Would increase interest in the series and bring it into the 21st century. Might even appeal to a wider audience." Unfortunately, there seems to be a bent toward the 90's state of the art. Most new fighters are fly by wire, and I agree completely this would widen the audience considerably. If it was just the eye candy, DCS would rule and games like Battlefield and the like would be in the outer darkness looking in. Unfortunately DCS struggles for profitability instead of getting into the fly by wire aircraft. I can't explain why.
