  1. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files I tried to download 2 user files several times, and it cannot connect. When I click the download button, this is the error that I receive:
  2. See the post above yours.. I just replied. I hadn't thought about ED not allow a second login on the other rig? Have you tried that? Do they block that? DCS is free, so I would think they would only be blocking at the module level. Which is why I asked for this suggestion..
  3. Trust me, I'm 65, and my friends are not trying to be cheap. Most have only heard me talk about DCS, but only 1 has ever come over to see it. And he couldn't do anything except fly around because learning takes time. Plus, ED could easily see the modules tied to my account coming from different IPs. So, it's not a buy 2nd one cheap and give/sell it to a friend.
  4. Actually, I was hoping there could be a 'generous' discount$ for customers who want to buy a 2nd copy of any Muti-crew aircraft. Or any aircraft really.. I have a 2nd pc and have thought about setting up another rig so I can have friends over(who don't know what DCS is, ...) and fly with them, or train with them? I know they could purchase a copy and buy a good pc, but many of them have shown interest, but getting started, and purchasing all the controllers, and setting up DCS settings, and assigning controller buttons, etc.... well, that's quite a deterrent.. With a second rig and copy of a module all setup and ready to go, they could just hop in and fly with a friend immediately. Being someone's co-pilot, gunner, or RIO is less intimidating and more fun I think, when getting started. And since I would not be using that 2nd copy very often, hence the discount.. What do you think??
  5. Can you explain what that means? And how long has this been on their list?
  6. I posted about this almost a year ago. After adding a Static object of type Effects/Big Smoke. You cannot adjust the Density between 0 and 1. You used to be able to set the value to 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, .... etc.. It appears in the Static Effect object that the textbox only allows 2 characters. And does not allow '.' decimal points.. But you CAN set this if you make it a Trigger event. The textbox in the Trigger event allows decimal points and 3 characters.
  7. Just FYI, I was contacted by Miles a few days ago, to verify my email address. My order was placed Jan 11, 2022
  8. Awesome!! Thanks so much for your help cfrag!! I was able to set the aircraft type by just putting a zone below each aircraft (F18 & F16) and that worked fine. And I do understand about the arrays all matching their indices.. I'm a retired programmer, so I understand these concepts. And since I don't want to get into managing the dictionary, I will manually add messages in the Mission Editor after I have added these triggers into the mission file. I started this all just to have a mission setup for anyone that I show my rig to, and let fly. They all immediatly want to blow sh1t up, and I want it setup and ready to go when they spawn in.. And sometimes I'll use that as well. Thanks again for your help!! Cheers mate!!
  9. Thanks for that awesome explanation! I am pretty stubborn... But from what you said here, I think I can just make a bunch of triggers in the mission builder, and then copy them into other .miz files for that aircraft. And also put a condition in for that trigger that only works for that aircraft type. I guess that will be my focus on how to handle this for now. Thanks for the great info again!
  10. I've been playing with setting up Triggers in a Mission to flip switches, etc.. in the FA-18 Cockpit. I've got a few working. But I also want to be able to use the script/Triggers in other missions. So, I'd rather make a Script, than use Triggers. I see a lot of posts about this, but no 'complete' mission script files. I've see commands like push_start_command() and push_stop_command() and in my mission the Triggers use ie. [7] = "a_cockpit_perform_clickable_action(23, 3002, 1, \"\"); mission.trig.func[7]=nil;", Are there any 'examples' out there that show the basic format for doing this in a Script? Like what other code do I need to set the script up? ie Do I need to declare any vars or functions in my script? Thanks.

    SIMAPP Pro Setup

    I wish that was it. I don't know what that is for... But I have downloaded profiles for different aircraft, that are not in that folder. And saved one of my other device's profiles, and it's not there either.

    SIMAPP Pro Setup

    Does anybody know the Path to where SimAppPro saves the LOCAL FILES? I would like to be able to back them up. I looked in C:\Program Files(86)\Simapppro; Users/xxx/AppData, My Documents and C:\ProgramData but found nothing.. LOCAL FILE Local file is a path to save the downloaded binding files. Players only need to sign in SIMAPP Pro, select the binding file in the “CLOUD FILE”, and click "DOWNLOAD" and it will be successfully saved to “LOCAL FILE”. It’s unnecessary to repeatedly download the binding files. When they log in SIMAPP Pro on different computes, all downloaded binding files will be automatically synchronized with the users account.
  13. No worries mate! But I did uninstall the F-14 ATM since I don't fly that. No more space problems for now.
  14. Here is what support said. I don't blame them, I can work with that.
  15. Sheesh.. I have the 14. And I didn't exactly call it a bug. And you're usually nicer than this...
  16. I have a ticket in with WW about the parking brake. I got my first response today that said: "Hello, you can try to rotate it left and right, or gently lift it up". So, they/she didn't indicate that it did not turn vertically.. But maybe she doesn't know what she's talking about?? And I think that's a model (not a real product) in the video. So, the video guy may have messed up turning it vertical? Does the Emergency/Parking Brake turn vertically? And does it stay in that position? Mine does not, and I finally found a manual, thanks to a post in this thread. Here is a vid of my Parking Break issue. I don't know if it even is supposed to turn vertically??? Also, I don't like this new bracket. The bracket for my Combat Panel is adjustable and I have it clamped to a 2x4 in my pit. I don't know how I am going to use this bracket.. Here are some pics of my setup, with my actuator to move my panels/throttle. I have a switch at the front/side of my seat.
  17. nullI have not purchased the new F-15E. But it is taking up over 6GB on my Hard Drive. I noticed this when Windows Pointed out that my Drive was almost Full!
  18. I gave up on TrackHat 2.0. TrackIR is just much smoother, especially around the edges when you head is turned further..
  19. I cannot get this mod to work. I see it in the list as the F6F, but when I spawn in, I only get the F10 Map screen? This goes in the game's main folder, correct? And I'm a bit confused because it says it's the F6F, but all of the pics are of the F4U? I do have the F4U mod working though.
  20. Does this mod still work? I'm using OVGME to install it in the game's main folder. I see it in the list in the Create Fast Mission menu. But It loads the mission and puts me in the map view (F10). And there is no F6F when you view (F2) all the other ac in the mission.. BTW, the F4U mod works fine, and is installed the same way. I am only enabling one of these at a time that use the P-51D.
