What a plane , many thanks. One question guys, how do we fix trackir not working? Do we use the correction file on User Files? Not sure if I deleted some folders in the input folder. Cheers

Have to say that I can't remember as so excited. All I want is more.

Advancement has to happen. This is the most amazing sim and gives myself and others such enjoyment. My only problem is that I wish I was wealthy enough to get all the latest kit to make this really sing. I try to put so much into my missions and have to remove some stuff as it starts to pack up and that's the same for a lot of people. If a mod doesn't work, I just keep my eyes out for something new or save a little money to get a module or two in the sales. That said, I will do my best to keep it going. Tallyho Cheers

Cheers guys. It was a 2 seater Cessna. Not the fastest but who cares as long as I was up there. Got to do it again if poss and maybe get my pilots licence sometime. Tallyho !!!!

Just got back from the best experience I have ever had. My wife bought for my birthday my 1st real flight experience. What a thrill. Flew the plane for a whole hour with instructor. Can't wait for the next one. To feel the plane in your hands was something else. The experience gained by flying in DCS, made all the difference as I had so much confidence knowing what I was doing. I recommend this to anyone who hasn't had the chance to do this yet and get up there for real. :pilotfly: Cheers Steve

I made a mission with some Russian Tankers and Dry Cargo Ships. Decided to add some Static Ammo and Bombs etc to them. Thought it would be a good idea for a bombing target. Through everything at them but nothing exploded. Is there a way to do this or is it not possible? Cheers

Updated to latest Viacompro and stable version of DCS. Harrier in persian gulf and asked for Taxi to Runway. ATC response kept repeating in a loop. Is this DCS or do I need to do something with viacompro? Cheers

Thanks dburne. Will watch them and hope I can figure it out Cheers

Can someone tell me if there is a link to a tutorial on viacompro and srs setup. I have checked my manual but couldn't find anything. I will check my docs just in case I missed it. Cheers

I've banged on about things like this for ages and had some pretty snide remarks in the past. ED does some amazing stuff but needs to think about these things before implementing them. I dread everytime an update occurs, wondering what mod etc will not work. This great plane is always in the wars. Come on ED, just a little thought.

Oh boy. I just cannot wait. What fantastic shots. A real beauty. Congratulations.

Got a problem. Not updated, using Stable version. Everything was working fine until last week. When I got to mission, I go to Fly and my plane is wrapped as though wings are around me. Could it be the bin file as there seems a lot compared to all other plane mods I have. I am downloading again so hope this works. Very strange as I haven't done anything for weeks. Any suggestions would be great. Cheers Edit. Tried everything but no go. Even did a repair and downloaded the mod again. Still the same.

Do I need to tick SRS PTT Mapping to get SRS to run alongside Viacompro? I use Easy Comms On at the mo and using latest Stable version. Cheers

Don't you have to adjust the View.lua file Line Usedefaultsnapviews to False? That way you can Customise your snap views. Not sure really.

Hey harker, the thing was seeing the A4E loaded as voiceattack and viacom loaded. Never seen that before. Will do another check just in case. Cheers Update: After checking, it must have been because I added the profile to viacom.

Wow, many thanks guys. Will be watching videos for a while. Also, might check the trimming of my joystick which might help me. If I had the cash, would love to check out VR. Cheers

I noticed a lot of stuff happening at startup with viacompro. One being the A4E profile. Will the A4E work with viacom at some point as nothing happens at mo? Some standard commands are not always working, and some happen before i ask them. Putting this down to updates. Cheers

Eaglewings, thanks for reply. My real problem is as I'm approaching the basket, I can never know if I am at the right distance left or right for the probe to connect and always seem to just pass the basket. This is so frustrating but I know I will get there. Cheers

This is bugging me rotten. I can fly with the tanker no problem. I contact tanker and start to move in to the basket and as soon as I get close, I go to pot. I wish there was a better way of getting in the basket as I lose sight of it. I watch videos etc and still after many attempts, I just can't do it. Landing on carriers, hover AV8 no problem. Is there anything I can use to help me. This is my last real challenge. :cry: Cheers

I was trying to get some sort of scale bringing them closer. Also, being bale to watch helos landing from the deck. Cheers

OK thanks. Will have to do some testing Cheers

Thank you guys so much. Is there a minimum distance? Cheers

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but sometimes after giving my carrier fleet a waypoint and setting speed etc, i join the mission and find the ships not moving. Sometimes they are all moving and on odd occasions, just a couple move. I make sure they are all part of the fleet and check to see all have the same speed. I have also moved them thinking they might need deeper water. Did a test today and all went well. All have been made in Caucasus map as my brother hasn't got any others. Cheers

I can zoom in and out, but I am using the stable version. I might re install the OB version again and use as a tester. I think I will leave updating for a while. I wish the updates would not affect the mods. Cheers

Nealius, I have tried every camera position and all I get is the B&W Deck LSO original. I will have another look at the folders and try again. I know it's not me, so might be what you say. Update. Sorted it. I noticed another camera line and it looked like the original LSO and hadn't put the 2 dashes in. Then after that, activated the camera I wanted and it worked a treat. Excellent, Thanks!!!! Cheers
