Would you know it! I've just tried to run it again to get a track file and now I cannot repeat it! Switching the governor to EMERG now works as it should....don't know what changed but I'll try to get a track file if it reoccurs. :unsure:

Just did a test with the Target Practise instant action and checked. None of the AI gunners will fire at human/soldier targets when selected to "Free fire" in the AI panel. Must be something introduced in DCS 1.5 because it works in the previous version.

I unchecked "Allied Flight Reports" in the Gameplay tab and don't recall hearing these looped, repetitive calls since. It also made me want to do something drastic with that message repeating over and over and over and over and overrrrrrrrr.........

You probably have already checked this but just make sure you haven't got another stray axis assigned to the cyclic. Every time you install a module, each controller is assigned to all axis and its easy to occasionally miss deleting one which then can cause a conflict. :joystick:

Just been doing the UN campaign where the Pedro advises to switch to Emergency governor for takeoff because the helo is very heavy. Just did some tests and found that once the governor switch is moved from Auto to Emergency, turbine and rotor speed increase but when the collective is lifted, all parameters increase, then rotor RPM droops but no lift is generated. If the switch is moved back to auto, the condition remains the same and you can no longer take off. The only way to fix the problem is to exit and restart. This is using 1.5 beta.....:(

Just completed this mission and I must say that it was a most unenjoyable experience! The first time round, I did manage to stay with him but with a lot of cursing and swearing which made my poor dogs nervous. I ended up in vortex ring state while looking for him when the other pair dropped off their troops and crashed. Second time round I completed the mission but just looked forward to getting it over and done with. :badmood: I've enjoyed the missions so far except this one, so here's hoping the next mission will be challenging but enjoyable. Also if it would have been possible, the sarcastic copilot would have accidentally "fell" out of the aircraft on the ferry flight to the base! :evil: EDIT: not sure if this is a campaign problem or related to Beta 1.5, but on a few occasions so far, my monitor has just faded to black during the mission. I fairly sure that it isn't a hardware problem on my end because it happens at exactly the same spot each time. When it happens, if you press pause then unpause it, the image is back on screen as per normal. My PC should have no problem because it's a mid range i7 gaming rig with 32 GB ram and a STRIX GTX 980 Ti video card.

Just did a night mission on the UN Campaign (U-HI) and the landing light doesn't light up or reflect off the helipad. As the landing light beam moves off the helipad, it illuminates and lights up the terrain correctly. The surface of the helipad absorbs all light like a black hole. :helpsmilie: EDIT: I just realised I wasn't in the correct thread when I posted!:poster_oops:

Just to add weight of numbers....I also experience the same issue with the ad nauseum AI RTB messages.

I have the same problem with the joystick key not being recognised most of the time without activating the button multiple times. Sometimes it recognises the button the first time but mostly not.

Thanks for the reply. The file DCS_World_OpenBeta_1.5.0.45208.37-11-2a.bin was corrupt. I downloaded this file again and everything installed correctly :thumbup:

I've just downloaded the DCS_World_OpenBeta_1.5.0.45208.37-11.exe plus the 6 other .bin files and run the installation. The installation goes right through till just about the end and then puts up a message about not being able to access Open Beta\Mission Editor\Data\ Images\Encyclopedia\Garage Small B.png because the file is corrupt and give the option to skip the file. From then on every time you press skip, it comes up with another unaccessible .png file. Obviously one the the file downloads is corrupt but I cannot find anything to test the six .bin archives. What I would like to know is which of the downloads is corrupt so that I don't have to redownload the entire 10+ GB again. Any advice would be appreciated. :helpsmilie:
