I'll try those suggestions. I'll start sneaking into the conflict zone more often. I flew around the "Chim(somethingsomething) Infiltration" objective the other day but had trouble spotting targets. Are ground units firing flares in that area? Is that a clue to location? I probably just need more time to learn what all you're offering. And it occurs to me to watch the friendly fighters and try and stay under their CAP. I'm having fun there regardless.

Great server. Although, the content for L-39 is a little thin; unless I care to try and sneak deep into the conflict zone. And I do from time to time. The stuff at Koboleti Abandoned Airport can be destroyed, but it's so static and ho hum. Maybe a task with some light arms capable of firing back? In single player I build missions with a couple of light armor vehicles that can inflict a little damage. Gives it some spice without being overwhelming.

You might have bailed on that one a bit quick.

Wow...it was like I summoned the dude or something. Eerie.....

*dons tinfoil hat* It's interesting that Starway has made no comment, nor did he appear to pro-actively have a purchase/donation mechanism in place when this announcement was made.

I guess you could add some enemy ground units trying to capture the pilot, providing a mission for an A-10 to provide support.

This is a great server. It's so much more fun than SP. Even if you don't have a buddy on with you at the same time. Just seeing other players around airports makes it much more immersive. Funny...I've seen several take off, but have yet to see another player actually land. The first time I tried to sneak into the conflict zone, I got about 10km in before an AIM120 got me. The last time, I actually got the L-39 in to the target, launched some munitions, and got back out. It was a lotta' fun.

Still spawning red L-39s in the heliport at Lochini heh? I should get extra points for successfully taxiing out of that labyrinth.

I'd like to see you do that in thunderstorms. I would be impressed.

When you set your static IP you're also setting a default gateway? Which would normally be the IP address of your router; 192.168.0.1 or something close to that.

I think there may now be a range of ports that need forwarding. Something like, 10308 to 10310?

This is what happens when it becomes about the "winning" and not the "playing."

I had a couple of hours (and a couple of cocktails) last night and I put this video together. It is my very first attempt to produce and edit a DCS flight video. I hope it's a little bit entertaining. I know I have at least one clip that is completely out of place...sorry.

Is that a problem tovarisch?

Wow...they did a good job tucking that one out of the way. Thanks.

Navigation lights: Check Cockpit lights: Check Landing lights: Nope I cannot find the landing lights switch in the ZA front cockpit. Can anyone provide a screenshot pinpointing its location please?

Look for this setting under "Display" in Control Panel. I've seen the larger settings cause windows in custom software to not quite fit the screen.

Alright. 'Scuse me while I stick my nose in the manuals for a bit.

That's confusing. The very first mission I flew on the server allowed me to press the normal "\" key for comms and check ground targets etc. By that I mean I could choose from a menuI couldn't even do that yesterday. Is it normal for me to be able to contact ATC on the ground without tuning any particular channel?

Question from a rookie: I landed at Tbilisi yesterday and ran directly into an aircraft sitting on the runway. Or, he was taking off, I'm not sure. I'm hoping I didn't fail to perform some kind of "check" in order to land at an airport without some kind of clearance. For some reason I could not access comms....the normal key press would do nothing. When I taxi to a runway and prepare to take off, I visually check for any air traffic around me, and check the F10 map for any aircraft that may be vectoring to my chosen runway before turning onto the runway and starting my take off roll. Is it just an inherent risk of the multiplayer environment that you might collide with another player, or might I have done something wrong? The other player did announce in chat an apology for the bad timing. And, can you consider spawning the L-39s somewhere other than the far, distant reaches of that airport?

In the interest of "situational awareness" I propose that all aircraft in DCS World be represented as roughly the dimensions of the Graf Zeppelin.

I'm so disappointed. I flew a simple mission in single player last night in my L-39ZA. I'll usually place a couple of armed vehicles somewhere close to spice things up a bit. An APC managed to get some rounds into my aircraft. Not too bad, took out a couple of instruments but engine and flight controls seemed okay. I finished the mission and RTB'd. Everything went well all the way to landing. But just as I touched the wheels to the runway the engine flamed out. It could not have happened at a more coincidental or fortuitous time. I so badly wanted to run the replay and gather video clips and screenshots. But sadly.....track replays are borked to here and back. I get halfway through the mission and crash at the target according to my saved track. Damn. I am disappoint.

Alright...full racks then. And I suppose train them off the rails would be best.

Your output video appears to be from Nvidia's Shadowplay. Have you updated your card's drivers? There have been at least two updates to Nvidia drivers fairly recently.

In other words, "DLC" is "DownLoadable Content".
