Save it as a Template; I don't see that option. To be clear I want to be able to save the Carrier Group (5 ships) AND the full static deck complement in one Terrain map (Ex: Persian Gulf), and then hopefully be able to Copy/Paste it the a different map such as Syria. Thus easily building my Pacific, Indian Ocean, Med, Black Sea and Northern Atlantic fleets. My attempts so far have only resulted in copying the fleet ship; it's not getting the deck complement.

Quick question on Mission building; after creating a SuperCarrier mission with a Carrier Grp and a full compliment of static a/c and deck equipment, is there a way to copy ALL of this to another mission? Kind of like a template so we don't have to start all over again. Thanks in advance,

I thought there was a way to change your _download directory. I can remember last year changing it to F:\DCS\_downloads as my C:\ was full. But now I can't remember how/where I did that. On another note, is there a way to download/update JUST the new version and not all the Terrains again? Some Terrains I am not using at all right now (NTTC & Persian Gulf), until I get another SSD, but I'm dying to see this new Marianas. Appreciate advice on that.

Has anyone seen any tutorials on the full processes of COMS with Carrier from announcing INBOUND to touchdown on the deck? I'm just getting back into the F/A-18 & SuperCarrier and was hoping to see this demonstrated, explained and clearly laid out. Yes, I read the manual but I think it would make a great tutorial YT video. Thanks

@Lazerhawk....hahahahaha...that's been a wise call for the last year if you have the A-10C AND F/A-18. So many updates that affect the HOTUS I can't keep this straight. Realized the other night I had completely veg'ed out on how to use A-10 Countermeasures while flying into a shit storm of SAMs.

Thanks for the info, I'll update today and try & fly it again. Cheers,

@Flappie...the ZIP logs have been sent about 3-4 times so far I as followed the dialog message and it launched a CMD batch program to ZIP & Ship. Here's a recent one from 6/12 attached dcs.log-20210612-175447.zip @Flappie.....BTW, the mission here involves slots with both F/A-18 and A-10C TankKiller if that makes any difference.

It does not seem limited to Bankler's Mission, I 'm getting a crash in other missions as well. It's a soft crash with a dialog box from DCS to write a log and send to them. Then dumps to Desktop but does not seem to crash anything else like USB devices, TrackIR, VoiceAttack, etc....just restart DCS and I'm back at the beginning. It is not consistent but I only see it when choosing a 2nd slot after an initial flight...never occurs on the 1st slot selection. Hope that helps.

@scoobie....visited StreamDeck to check it out. Some of it is over my head but I figure for DCS it is just an expensive button controller that allows you to assign key bindings and maybe macros. I already have that capability with the Razer Orbweaver with it's over 100 keys assignment on 6-7 levels for about USD$80. That has significantly reduced the need for a mouse...my grand plan for all my ACs. It the UFC that is my biggest challenge on the A-10C, F/A-18 and F-16. A solid export of that would make my day. Thanks for you suggestion.....fly safe!

@draconus....I went to the website to review and the dates of the updates and programs don't make me feel very comfortable with stability and moving forward. But thanks for you response..

@Leg2ion.....I 'moved' the Normandy & Persian Gulf regions to another SSD for now, DCS Mgr obviously doesn't know about this and tells me I can download these according my previous purchases. I understand that completely and will move them AND all /DCS to a new SSD when I install. THanks

The the logic behind a tracer round is to trace the bullet flight path and make necessary ballistic corrections for drift & drop over range to target. As much as tracers might be an awesome sight to see, especially at night, I can't see it's practical application in a real war zone with an A-10C GAU. a) ground impact is pretty visible; day or night regardless of the rounds fired. b) HUD visual 'cueing' tells me the range and impact area. b) it's not like you can 'swing the barrel' XX° degrees like an M249, .50-M2HB0 or even the GAU on a AC-130; you'd need to steer the whole plane. c) the visual effect would probably be a detriment to the pilot's vision, especially at night, leaving him/her with temporary blind spots...at 300kts heading downhill !!!! Even a 'subdued tracer'; one that delays burn for a hundred or more yards downrange, combined with gun barrel exhaust would create a visual impairment. The only benefit I can see is the tracers use to 'mark the target' for other friendlies, whether air or ground forces. Oh, and the obvious self-induced 'chubby' from watching the spectacle.

Count me in this group for most the reasons others listed above PLUS....there's something about toting and dropping a shitload of whoop-ass that makes the slower, longer flights worth it. And now with even more flavors of whoop-ass, and the HMCS it's more fun. When I mixed the Hawg with the Hornet and then the Viper, as much as I enjoy the differences, I always came back to my GO TO bird. I also found over the last year or so that with all the updates, additions, changes with the Hornet and Viper I just couldn't keep up. So I may follow Fri13 above philosophy of '1 mod a month' and focus on the Hornet again.

I recently got a small 8" Windows touchscreen PC for a business solution; it didn't work out as anticipated so it's mine to play with. I was thinking about using it to emulate the F/A-18 UFC to further reduce eliminate the mouse. Is that a possibility; if 'Yes' can someone direct me to how it can be done. Thanks in advance,

Hmmmmm....update VoiceAttack-Viacom, that's a novel idea. I wondered why my ATC is speaking Northern European-Germanic-Neanderthal

LG...sounds good....this method would not totally shag any registry settings on Win10?

Hornblower....thanks for the Rapid Response Team answer... I'll do the MOVE first and plan for a brand new SSD. When that task arrives is it best to just DELETE all DCS and do a fresh install on new drive. I can't imagine moving the whole thing would work out too welll. Thanks again,

Have a space issue with a full SSD; need to replace or add another. The 446GB drive is C:\ and it's hitting it's limits. Before I replace I would like to remove-move or whatever some of the Terrains. Just d/l'd Syria at it's whopping 55GB so I was thinking about removing Normandy & Persian Gulf temporarily to free up some space. Can I simply delete those subdirs from C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\terrains OR move them to another drive? I am NOT suggesting to move them and still expect those terrains to be accessible. Could it possibly be that simple? In related matter, would it be a benefit to load EVERYTHING that is DCS on a separate SSD 500GB and get it off the C:\ ???? Appreciate the help....I just want to fly & blow shit up

Don't want to hijack this thread but seems it's relevant.

Hammer1-1, are you suggesting that it would be better to "reset to default" as mentioned above? I certainly would like to avoid the headaches of redundancy if possible. I'm ready to listen to any suggestions right now to get back in the air. THanks

Could someone please direct me to, or post an image of the entire Syria map from maybe the Mission Editor? Just getting back into DCS and considering this purchase but want to know how extensive it is geographically. Thanks,

Thanks, got 90% sorted by copying the LUA files from A-10C, only need to get the Snapviews fixed again. This plane with the addition of helmet display has taken killer to a new extreme level Sad they couldn't add more intelligent navigation like the F/A-18 but this is FUN!!! Thanks again,

Just started getting back into DCS after long hiatus. Purchased A-10C II months ago but never set it up until this weekend and found my HOTUS settings, especially AXIS were all messed up. I was wondering whether I can copy some LUA from A-10C to A-10C II. Appreciate some advise,

I see this warning in mid-flight miles after setting Trim for T/O whether carrier or land. I can't find any relationship to weight, airspeed, AOA or anything else...I have noticed this warning at level flight +350 knots, smoking a cig & sipping a beer. Can't figure it out.
