Thanks for the quick reply. I decided to keep on going with only two wingmen. Kinda funny still having them chatting along with the rest of the flight while on the ground with damaged hogs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Howdy pilots, When taxiing to runway, wingman 3 crashes into wingman 4. Not sure what happened. Thanks

The Hyper 212 plus has worked well for me. Although I add another fan for the push/pull config. The only issue I have right now is accessibility to my memory modules. A new motherboard eventually will fix that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nine times out of ten if I am able to maintain visual of the bandit I can shoot it down. However, it gets more complicated if there are a lot of enemies and friendlies around. If that's the case I just try to mess with enemies situational awareness and sneak up from an unexpected direction. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I forced myself to learn how to fly with my right hand. So now I can control the stick with both hands. It's comes in 'handy' when I need a rest. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

With the Mirage I'm finding that once you are able to evade the first onslaught of BVR missiles by driving them into the ground, I can get in close enough for a Magic kill. Also finding the enemy visually is essential because I can avoid targeting them with radar and alerting them. Then I sneak in close for a guns kill. However, I'm having lots of difficulty with Mirage guns. Getting better with time. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

Oops. I meant in close combat modes or other autolock radar modes it has to lock you first. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

Howdy. I hope this is the right place to post this. I've noticed a lot of people complaining about pilots locking friendly pilots with radar. And also the team killing. I have two points to make about this issue. 1st. Sometimes it is unavoidable and friendlies get locked on radar. More specifically when I'm using close combat mode or any other radar mode that auto locks. I lock friendlies unintentionally from doing this. In the heat of the battle with multiple friendlies and enemies nearby, it's unavoidable. The key is to IFF right after the lock then fire. You don't usually have much time. But that's the way it is. 2nd. If an enemy or friendly locks you up, your first instinct is the aquire and evade. Now, how do you know if it's bad guy or good guy? You can't really unless you have voice coms, and even then you may not have time to wait for answer to your raygun. When you've been locked up I believe most people assume it's enemy and will also engage the aircraft that's locked him up. Just remember not to automatically assume it's enemy and engage without doing IFF. The only thing I can think of that may help with this issue is to immediately unlock the aircraft if it's friendly. That doesn't nessessarly mean it's a friendly but it may help. Also, in order to IFF with Mirage , you need to radar lock that aircraft. So just to be sure people are aware. Locking up a friendly aircraft is sometimes unavoidable. Thanks. :-) Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

Great! The Mirage module has been one of the best purchases I've ever made in sims. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

Wow...this is unexpected. And very amazing. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

I was just about to buy a 970 yesterday, as my 680 is dying. But then I saw the news, and I am going to wait for the 1070. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

It's a great map, with all kinds of different environments. Glad it's being updated. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

I have this issue a lot. I assumed it was because I wasn't slewing the TDC cursor close enough for the second lock. And if I try to lock nothing, the screen goes blank. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk

I was getting pretty bad micro shutters, and overall bad FPS. I was getting 20FPS to 60FPS, it was all over the place. It was also unplayable. Then I turned off full screen, and now it runs smooth, very smooth. For a GTX 560ti, I have to admit I wasn't expecting this kind of performance.

I've mostly played with the blackshark, and down low the performance is not that great. I only have a GTX 560ti, so I don't expect much. There are lots of bugs and it crashes too much to really get into any flying. Gonna try again in a couple months. Or I get a new video card. :-)

Wow! F-14 plus F-18 plus new theater in the middle east. This is what I've wanted for a very long time. Very, very exciting times for flight simmers.

Awesome, that worked. I must have missed that in a recent update. Thanks!

Hello, Lately when I start a game with the F-15C, the HUD, and MFD's and completely turned off. I'm not sure if this is a new feature and you need to turn them on. Normally, those are already turned on when you start the sim. Am I missing something new? I've checked the keyboard commands and nothing starts it. I can get in the air and everything, but no HUD or MFD's. Thanks.

Blog I started showing screenshots and videos of recent missions, etc. I've been reading similiar things over the years while at work and not available to fly, so I thought it may be fun to contribute to the world of geeking out on DCS while at work or whatever. :-) Appreciate any input on it. I'm kind of new to blogging and AAR's. Thanks! Military Simulations Blog

I suggest TrackIR or something similar :-)

Perfect time to grab the Mi-8. :-)

I would say 1 out of every 15 DCS video's I upload to Youtube gets denied monetization. It is very strange. It would be nice to have an official PDF with permission to to do this.

Several different engagements against multiple types of armor. I believe the server is named 'S77th'.

Hello, few months ago, I was looking at purchasing FC3. When I logged into look at the purchase page, I noticed I already had a serial key for the sim. However, I never paid for it. I thought maybe it was a gift from ED...:-) Anyways, I was able to check that serial number with that new feature on the DCS website, because I wanted to know who's serial key it was, and sure enough, it belongs to another customer (not me). It looks like there was a webpage error of some kind. Out of curiosity, I checked the P-51 page, and I also had a serial key there as well. And it doesn't belong to me. If someone from ED wants to contact me for the serial numbers in question, please do so. I hope my keys haven't been leaked :-|

Who would have thought the next DCS aircraft would be the Huey...totally surprised by that. Who knows, someone may step in (cough cough Combat Helo...) and make an Apache soon...next....asap. :-) Thanks for update :-)
