Ok thankyou for some form of answer. That pretty much ends my days of playing or paying for another DCS product then.

I'm not interested in keeping my server private, i'm interested in being able to have a friend connect to me or i to them. Private or none private, the LAN option was the only way of actually connecting and getting a game. Again this was not what i asked. All i asked was why has the option been removed?

Sorry? what kind of reply is that... I'm not going into how can i possibly get my game which ive poured alot of money into to even work. I'm asking a simple question, why can i no longer choose my interface? The fact is, no matter what fixes i try i cannot host a server using the normal interface. Hence the reason i have used Tunngle or similar for years with no issues. Now this option has been removed. Leaving me unable to play the game. I shouldn't have to move heaven and earth just to get my game working online, i accepted the fact it didnt work, because again i could use the LAN option to do what i wanted out of the game which was a small coop with 1 or 2 friends.

Hi, i'm a long supporter of this series and LOCKON before it. I have accepted many bugs and problems over the years, because lets face it. You really cant beat the DCS "feel" as a flight sim fan. Part of this feeling came from playing online with friends doing coop flights. Now again i have always overlooked past problems when it came to connection, because i always had the option of using Hamachi or in the more recent years Tunngle. So why has the option to select a LAN interface been removed? Is has all but destroyed my enjoyment of DCS. Before people start talking of opening ports and doing this and that. Stop... I just want to know why i can no longer select the LAN interface. All i want is a game with a friend after we both have invested heavily both time and money into this series, to be denied the only way we have of playing together.

Has anybody had any luck with the problem above? I having the exact same issue. Only since the new update, i cannot select other interfaces when trying to host a server. Normally i just use Tunngle and select the tunngle ip usually 7.whatever. Before the update i could select either this or my normal ip (which has never worked for hosting hence tunngle). EDIT: I have also tried the mentioned fixes, but no luck.

Good to see its not just me with the CI.

Update on my problems... After lots of messing for no joy, i decided to do a clean install of DCS. I uninstalled/reg clean etc. Then installed World/A10/P51/CA. I host a game for me and a friend and amazingly it worked first time. We had a good solid 3hr flight. I went off that night happy. Come today, start mupltiplayer, host a game same as yesterday. Guess what.... Connection Interupted. Exact same problem as before, NOTHING has changed since yesterday, what the hell is going on.

I have tried of all the solutions, plus lots of playing with my router. As i say all has been fine until the past month. Ive never had to mess about before to get into or host a stable server.

After everything working fine since the beta pretty much, i have now started to get Connection Interupted when i try to join a server and more annoyingly friends get CI when trying to join my server. Tried going through Tunngle, but had the same results. I dont get what has changed, afaik nothing has changed on my end. Pretty frustrated right now...

I distinctly remember forum posts stating those who purchased the original beta will get the Nevada terrain free when it was finished. If this is not the case then frankly i am going to be as annoyed as all others who purchased the early A10 beta. Personally FC3 wasnt a complete waste of money for me as i enjoy the F15 and the DCS World merge is something that is deserving of a little money. But as someone who purchased LOCKON/FC/FC2 i can completely see where others are coming from that charging a full module price for something which is in essence just FC2 updated slightly and DCS World compatible. I am one of those who has purchased every ED product betas included. Not only for my enjoyment but to support ED. I really have to say though, if it turns out, we who paid the original price for the A10 beta do not get Nevada once it is released for free, i will definatly not be purchasing future titles. I appreciate ED is a business, but there is only so far the loyal users can be pushed.

Used to be the Enter key, have a look through the controls in the options. Look for Weapon Release.

Cant answer all of these but... 1. Its pretty much the FC2 content, but with the changes you mentioned and a few more. 2. DCS World takes care of the compatability and thats free, so yeah just buy FC3 if thats all you want to fly (Providing you have the original Lock-On or FC or FC2). 3. Doubt there will be any kind of ED Primary server, but i'm sure the online players will pick up a bit with the new content. 4. Unknown, but i would imagine so. 5. You only need one of them installed. So just installing the original Lock-On from the disk will be fine. This can then be uninstalled. 6. Yes DCS:CA will be compatible online. You can drive around in that Shilka till your hearts content (Just dont expect high fidelity ground models/graphics, this is after all a flight sim).

0 to 35,000 Just like that, my god have i missed the F15C. Such a shame we cant have the full DCS treatment to it. The new cockpit is great, makes me want to click buttons though. :)

Ok mate no worries, i'll get some landing and ferry flight practice in while you work. :pilotfly:

Are these checklists still available to the public? They were by far the best out there, after some time off from DCS i want to get back into it and i fear without access to these it is going to be so much harder to re-jog my memory. I hope it is still possible to get access to this wonderful literature.

Cheers for posting that up. Asymmetric load, i was certain of it.......:joystick: At least now i wont have to trim roll constantly.

Personally i use the following:- Ground/Taxi Nav Lights to Flash Gear Light to Taxi Take Off/Transit Gear Light to Takeoff Nav Lights Steady Strobe Light On Formation Lights (If required) I then set my pinky switch as per situation, so off for fence in. :)

The only thing i would say besides practice, is to get the aircraft as steady as possible before connecting. So trim, trim and trim again...

Its an indication that you have a notification, i.e to check your EO Timer or an incoming message. Just TMS Left Short to get rid of it.

So to summarise the summary, sorties consist of overwatch for ground forces, dropping PGM and strafing. :thumbup: I just wish a show of force worked against those pesky russians ;) Thx for the link though.

So simple :music_whistling: Cheers mate.

Hey guys, i have a question regarding the loading of a TER with 3xAGM-65D. This is for when i am rearming mid-mission. So far looking at the DSMS INV page i can load a TER onto the correct pylon, then add a single AGM onto that. I notice there is a QTY value on on OSB 5 on the Maverick Inventory page. I'm guessing this is used to select the quantity of missiles i want to load onto the station. If this assumption is correct, then i would want to load 3 onto the TER. If i am along the correct line with the above method, how do i go about changing the QTY value on OSB5 from the default 1 to 3? If i am totally looking at this the wrong way, could somebody please enlighten me to the correct procedure for re-loading a TER into the DSMS. Thankyou in advance for any help.

Received mine this morning, very very nice. Cheers dude!

Sneaky :) Luckily when printing mine out the boss took a keen interest then started reading it :lol: Really didnt do too much more work after that.

Torrent active, will seed for a week or so. :thumbup: Cheers ED
