I am looking to upgrade also. Would the better purchase be a RTX3060 with 12GB or RTX3070 with 8 GB?

Thanks, Don. I was able to get it loaded. I don't know if the controller interface seems buggy, or I it's a user error issue. I tried to set up slew control on my warthog throttle with the TDC axis command, but was not able to click on the cell. I went back later to do it and I was able to do it. Thanks for all your help!

Thanks for the tip. I noticed I was having trouble clicking on the category. Will try again.

I accidentally cleared the default key bindings for Hornet. I attempted to load the default keybindings by clicking on load profile then going into the Eagle Dynamics folder under Programs. It is there when I look using explorer, but it does not show up when I try to load the profile. Any ideas?

While flying? Or do you mean load times? I can get a good NVMe for around $140. A SATA SSD is around $100. It would be nice to save some money.

Any opinions with regard to an NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD? I have a Gigabyte GA-Z170X Gaming 3. I guess there are impacts with regard to resources, but the only other peripherals that I have is a GTX 1060 and 500 GB SATA drive, which I will likely use for basic storage once I upgrade. Thanks!

Thanks! Should DCS be on the same drive/partition as the OS? I had it on a different partition and load times were very slow.

I currently have a 500 GB SSD. I am running out of space. It's mainly a gaming rig. I have the OS, DCS, and Falcon BMS. I was thinking about upgrading to a 1 TB SSD drive, but noticed the Firecuda drives were a lot less. It's a hybrid SSD drive. I was thinking about upgrading the Firecuda? Or should I go with a 1 TB SSD? Would it make sense to keep the OS on the current HD and put DCS on a new drive? Any recommendations? Thanks, Blain

I am probably the last person to respond as I cannot get Vaicom Pro to work either. And I purchased the license. Did you unzip the Vaicom Pro folder into the Voice Attack App folder? I maybe wrong but there is a mod that is required for DCS. Did you load that?

I purchased the license version. I am a former VA 2.0 user. I only fly the F-15C. I watched the YouTube tutorial but still am not getting it. I am thinking that it is a case of user error. It seem I am able to get the PTT to work in DCS world. I press the PTT button on my Warthog throttle and I hear the radio response. I tried some basic commands like "Darkstar request picture." I am not able to get to work. Am I suppose to program a keyword for every command I intended to use, or am I not using the correct phrases? Thanks!

I have the latest version of voice attack. I recently reinstalled DCS on a different drive. I added the ATC mod to DCS and I am pretty sure I changed the settings in VA to suggested ones. I would liker to use the F-15C profile but I am unable to get VA to recognize any of the commands in game and out of game. Does the 2.0 F-15C profile work with DCS? If it does, does anyone have link to a tutorial? Thanks!

DEG had a tip for getting Voice Attack to recognize buttons on TM's Warthog HOTAS when it responds with "waiting". His suggestion is posted below: "I had a similar problem with getting my Warthog throttle (I only have the throttle) to work with Voice Attack. VA would work with my T16000, but not the Warthog. I found the answer elsewhere on the web. In Windows, open up the Game Controllers and select the Warthog, and look at the properties. Make sure all 32 of the throttle buttons are off (not sure what it looks like with both a throttle and a stick - you'll have to figure that part out yourself). Note: 2 buttons (29 and 30 on mine) are the throttle Off detents (took me a couple mins to figure that out). Once I set them all to Off, VA recognized the Warthog as a Joystick Option and the Test button recognized the Mic switch." Thanks Don!

If I delete voice attack and reinstall it, do I need to retrain the voice engine for my voice?

Hollywood, I checked the POV box for my Warthog throttle and was able to get it to recognize commands, but was not able to get it work in the game with the free version. Is there a way I can go back so I can use the old F-15 profile in voice attack. I would gladly pay for the license but I want to make sure it VAICOM pro works first. Thanks!

Thanks, Hollywood!

I ended up repartitioning the HD into one 500 GB drive. I reloaded DCS - the F-15 module and Maps for the Persian Gulf and Nevada. I now have 41 GB left. Besides the OS, the only large program I have on the drive is Falcon 4.0. I didn't know that DCS would take up that much room. I didn't load the A-10C module. Load times were much faster. I am thinking that if I purchase the F-14 or Hornet module that I will need another 500 GB HD. If I put the new modules on the second drive will I see any performance issues? Thanks!

I am wondering whether I should go back to the old profile and get that to work first.

I am having a similar issue to Chaser. I was using Voice Attack 2.0 with DCS 2.0 and using the F-15C profile with no issues. I had to reinstalled DCS on separate drive after taking a long break and had to relearn how to configure Voice Attack. I created the mod folder and pointed the mod manager at DCS World 2.5. I also downloaded the free version of VAICOM Pro 2.5 and updated Voice Attack for the latest version - 1.7.3. The dialog screen indicates the following: Plugin support enabled Plugin VAICOM Pro 2.5 initialized. Easy Communication is true Ready to command I am unable to set up my LTB on my Warthog throttle as the hot key. Like with Chaser it says waiting. On the Joystick options screen if check assign, I get the options of the Warthog throttle and stick. I select stick. I check enable joystick. I did not select hat. Should I? I check test and it says waiting like chaser. Does the VAICOM Pro settings supersede the Voice Attack settings or do I need to enabled the setting recommended in both guides?

Thanks, Guys! I was in error. The SSD is 500 GB. I partitioned it as two 250 GB partitions. Should I still combine partitions? Blain

I partitioned the SSD as two drives. One with the OS and other with DCS. I have DCS on the second partition. Is that an issue? I also have a lot of extra space on the partition that DCS is on. Would upgrading to Win 10 help?

I noticed that it takes a while to load missions, event instant missions. I haven't time it but it takes at least several minutes. On a few instant missions like for the Persian Gulf I had to end the program. I have deleted DCS 2.5 and reloaded it. I still have the same issue. Should I upgrade my HD? I have a 240 GB SSD and it is pretty quick loading windows. Or do I need to upgrade from Win 7 to 10? Thanks!

I am a previous owner of TM's TFRP. I was able to fly just fine, but when I decided to start practicing landing the F-15 I couldn't get it to stay on the runway on touchdown. I used the TM calibration tool and noticed a lot of spiking. I was never able to get TM support to respond so I returned them to Amazon. I purchased the TFRP because I was on a budget. There were also no available Saitek pedals available. They recently became available for sale at Amazon and I purchased one. Landing is much easier with those pedals.

I was able to isolate the problem to the rudders - by deleting the profile. I may have solved it by increasing the dead zone by a little more and that seemed to solve the issue. I still need to do a more thorough test. Thanks for everyone's suggestions!

I created a mission with zero wind and it did the same thing. I also checked to make sure I didn't have duplicate inputs. That's not the issue either. I am wondering if it is a calibration issue? I am going to delete the inputs for the rudder to eliminate that as an issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a TM HOTAS set up with TFRP rudders. I have a dead zone on both the stick and the rudders. I have also calibrated all controllers. I am flying the F-15C and flying the preloaded missions that comes with the module. Is this an issue of a crosswind? I am thinking its not because it begins early in the roll on take off. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
