    Could you increase HUD brightness ? Difficult to see particularly in Nav mode. Looking forward to updates but a great mod.
  2. barriedrew
    Great mod and hopefully developed further. On my install it appears the rudder pedal animation is reversed and the wheel brakes don't seem to respond to the assigned axis. Thanks for a working Typhoon.

    Hi First foray into VR and slightly stumped. I have installed the Reverb G2 and it works. Mixed reality portal slightly confusing but not really bothered about that. I have enable VR in the right hand DCS settings tab but when I launch DCS it stays on the desktop ? Should it automatically go to the headset or do I have to do something. I have the downloaded beta version and nothing related to steam installed. Am I right in supposing DCs should drive the headset directly ? Thanks for any help given. Barrie

    Have a look at Tobii Eye / Head tracker. Quite expensive. I have just purchased V5 and it works great. I would not go back to the hat / headphone variants as I have had both. DCS supports the device natively. It can also work in FS2020 with headtracking only, using Facetrack NoIR with a couple of plugins from their website. Works very well and nice to fly without a hat. V4C works as well and those can be bought of ebay for reasonable sums.

    Should I need to press to Cycle the After burner Detent Switch to get into reheat ? I kept hitting the stop and when I saw a video of the throttle rocking up I checked the manual and found no info on it. Building my own USB ICP. Does anyone know wher to buy the 4 way rocker switch. Thanks for any help.

    Resolved issue by using regedit and deleting keys. Installed modules and reactivated ok.

    Hi Tried repair. I am unable to deactivate due to significant hardware changes although when I tried to reinstall the module it says activation is successful but the sim reports an error as soon as I try to select a flight. Would deleting the lot and starting again help or is there some key file hidden. Thanks Druid.

    Hi I upgraded my motherboard/processor and retained existing SSD, RAM and graphic card. I did not deactivate DCS. When the renewed machine booted it went into windows without problem. I was expecting to reinstall the operating system and DCS later. DCS reports Activation Key is Not valid etc. I tried reactivating option and it appears to work. ie reactivation number drops. However cockpits are frozen. Repeated this 3 times so far and I cannot fly. How do I solve this ? ? Thanks Druid

    Downloaded V1.22.7286 installers for A10, P51 and FC. FC installed fine. A10 and P51 reported corrupt files. Tried several times with same result.

    When wil the installers be updated to 1.22.7286 I re installed DCS today and it updated before I was able to install add on's. It says I need a later installer.

    Using Cougar on the DCS A10C, but unable to assign the HOTAS Slew Horizontal and Vertical to mouse X and Mouse Y. This is used in my foxy profile on FC2 without a problem to control the TDC. I want to use the microstick as mouse. Assigning the microstick to create the ; , . : keys causes me no end of problems as the stick generally produces a constant stream of keystokes.

    hi sorry for delay, i use the on board sound with an asus p5n32 sli motherboard. it has the little riser card and using the standard vista 32 bit op system. certainly not a creative sound card. barrie
  14. barriedrew
    hi Thanks for the sounds. Much improved. I get the noise for only a few seconds now and after a thrust change it goes away. Barrie

    Could some one tell me how to adjust/modify the F15 cockpit sound. When I am in the cockpit there is a constant roaring sound. Occasionally it dissapears. If I load any other aircraft ie A10 the cockpit is virtually silent. Once I go ack to the F15 the roaring starts immediately. Tried a sound pack today. Different sounds but the F15 still has the constant roaring. Vista. Flamming Cliffs Thanks for any help. Roll on the F16 DCS
