  1. Hi all, Ive tried everything now and have resorted to asking for help (Don't like doing that) I have just bought the A10c module and am in the process of setting up my X52. The main thing id like to do is have the slider as the speed brake control. But no matter what I try, its not playing ball. I try to make it an axis but apparently i cant do that....or can I? What am I missing here? I tried using the Saitek software but that just gave me a headache. Could someone kind please help me here....and be slow and gentle with me, ...Guy
  2. Steam Modules on special Hi all, just a heads up. The modules for Steam DCS purchasers are on special. Im not sure how long for but I just bought the MI-8 and the A10c for £11 each...Sweet. ...Guy
  3. Hi All, I've had the Mig 15 module for a while now and basically navigation has been a bit hit and miss. I've tried searching online to get some ideas but the info there is a little sketchy and not really complete. Does anyone know why there aren't any training videos with this module? Its a bit weird as it is a premium module and you do pay top dollar for it (I did. No sales on Steam) Any help would be gratefully appreciated, ...Guy
  4. That's the thing I was on about, A live stream. ...Guy
  5. Hi all, I had an Idea today. Just one mind you. Im sure there are many people with knowledge to spare and possibly the time as well, but has anyone thought about doing a open viewing thingy. Like you can do in steam by watching another's game. You can see im no techy here but surely its possible to watch someone elses pc while listening to them talking. Im thinking of a workshop type of thing, where, say, you could do one on mission building, for example. Where someone who knows his stuff could do examples. Different to youtube demos in that you could ask questions...ie how do you add a convoy, trigger points etc. etc. Just an idea but potentially a good one. Just need some REALLY helpful peeps to get the ball rolling, ...Guy
  6. Ill run it again, same situation. But his time ill save the trk file. I have a sinking feeling it might be fuel LOL. But surely the quick mission would give you more than 10mins fuel, ...Guy
  7. Hi All, Im battling with a refuelling mission I have. The main probs I have is that none of the Auto pilot Altitude holds seem to work correctly? They all seem to make the AC move higher than the Il-78? The Thrust hold seems to work well though. I can make contact but the thing wobbles all over and the probe comes out more often than not. Do I have to target the refueller before approaching as well, as the HUD just makes no sense. The circle that floats around seems to not correspond with anywhere? Ive seen loads of videos now, online and they all seem to be using an older version than the current one and things in that are different to this one. This has got me perplexed. I hope someone can help, ...Guy
  8. Hi all, I did the dogfight 'quickstart' mission and on my way to the nearest landing strip the engine inexplicably died? I wasn't using MW-50 and the temperatures looked within range. It didn't really sound too off before it died either? Any ideas? ...Guy
  9. Is there a current tutorial for refuelling these things? I watched Ironhands video, good as it is, its not really current as the heads up looks totally different and I cant seem to get an altitude hold that appears correct. Any ideas? ...Guy
  10. Thx mate, Here is my version of a refuelling mission for the SU-33. AAR_Refueling_Landing practice.miz AAR_Refueling_Landing practice.miz
  11. Im flying the 109 190 Su21 27 and 33...oh and the Mig 15 ...Guy
  12. I have since found another refuelling mission that somebody posted for A-10's I think? I just edited it in the ME and made everyone Russian, the tanker an Il-78 and the planes all Su-33's (Look at me, editing and sh1t) I even andded the Russian carrier so I can refuel and then land on the carrier. Woohoo, ...Guy P.S If someone could explain how to add my .miz file to this message, I would gladly share it with you.
  13. Many thanks, but on my keyboard ive just found out its RAlt = L lol ...Guy
  14. Hi All, im really new so be gentle. Where do I put this file to play it? It appears to be a .mis file whereas the other missions ive added are .miz files? While searching through my file structure in my DCS folder I found an FC2 file with lots of missions including an AAR mission? How do I access this one as well? Remember I AM new...ish so be kind and treat me like an idiot. ...Guy
  15. Hi All, I did a mission earlier where I had to do a landing at night in Low viz. Ive noticed that they've modelled some beautiful looking landing nose wheel lights, but im jiggered if I can find how to turn them on. For once my tickling stick and some Asti spumanti are not doing the trick. :huh: ...Guy
  16. Thank you all for your patience. IT WORKS, HOORAY!. I used Skate's attached file. I checked the file you sent as well PiedDriot and the only difference I could see was the 'aspect' on the file you posted was 'aspect = screen.aspect; whereas Pied's said aspect = 5.3333333; Would that have caused the problem? Editting files is still very alien to me, ...Guy P.S is there a file to get the Kneeboard in the centre as well. And maybe a way to make it bigger?
  17. Thank you very much for your help. I've now sorted the Slide button, just need to work on the pinkie switch, ...Guy
  18. I have no idea what im doing wrong? I copied everything you wrote word for word and yet it doesn't show up in my monitors 'drop down' Here's exactly what I did, I opened the MonitorsSetup folder from the DCS file I then copied the '1Camera' .Lua file and pasted it to my desktop. I edited this file to look exactly like you and skate told me. I saved the new file with its new correct name (1Camera-centeredGUI) I then put this file into the MonitorSetup file, where it shows up in my list of folders there. Started DCS and No show in the Monitors drop down. God help me...... ...Guy
  19. I tried using the slider as an axis but it just didn't recognise it? As for the Saitek programming software, that requires Mensa skills, ...Guy
  20. Hi All, I have an X52 throttle and stick and was wondering if there's a way I can use the pinkie switch and the slide on the throttle. I have absolutely no experience programming the stick. I have just come back from an extensive search of YouTube and saiteks own page and Im still as baffled as ever. Whoever is nice enough to help. please imagine your explaining to a 3 yr old. Slow and precise. Many thanks in advance, ...Guy
  21. All information on centre monitor Bump
  22. Hooray, all fixed now. I am a moron, its official, Many thanks, ...Guy BTW is it just me or is there a muzzle flash missing from the R/H MG of the 190 while its firing?
  23. Hi I appear to have the same trouble. Only half the plane is cool. I am a noob so ill try to explain exactly how I installed it. After D/L the file, it appeared as a 'folder' rather than a zip file. So I used the back up arrow and there was the zipped folder, I unzipped this into my FW 190 folder. I then opened that folder and found the Franz Gotz D-13 folder. Opened that to find the 'swastika' folder, opened that to find the .dds folder. Highlighted and copied this file into my DCSWorld/Bazar/Liveries/FW-190D9. Then started the Sim and added the skin to the editor. And that's where we are now, with half the plane awesome, half...not so? Any ideas? ...Guy
