Coolio.................. it's working now, downloaded, and installing. Cheers Hoss

Having a problem connecting to your download, it keeps timing out... Hoss

Hope it doesn't go the way of the real F-35.......:joystick: Here's a good article I found yesterday on Fox News, of all things it's in Vanity Fair....lol http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/2013/09/joint-strike-fighter-lockheed-martin there are 7 pages, so don't miss any Cheers

The one thing I love about DCS and RoF is if you want a certain Aircraft you can purchase it............... if yer not interested you don't have to. But it can still be part of any scenario you wish and you can put them in for people who do have the Aircraft. I'm probably like a lot of others, we have a bunch of planes because we think we need them, but never fly them because we have our favorites and pretty much stick to them. I will purchase the DCS WWII package and get the planes I want to fly and leave the others that I don't, and I'm sure Eno will build a mission everyone can play in no matter the A/C they bought. Cheers Hoss

The hardest maneuver I have tried to master is sneaking new computer equipment past the SAM sight that is the wife, chaff and flares don't work, neither does evasive maneuvers............ Just remember, you never stop learning new things on this sim, that's why it's called a Study Sim..... once you learn something and get the hang of using it, there is always something else new to learn and try to master. If there weren't it would get boring very quick, or become another game you turned into a coaster. Cheers Hoss

Once you are ready to go fence in and enter the Battle area, change it from Standby to either Semi Auto, or Auto, and it will start working. Gerry Abbotts tutorial............ Settings for programs.... http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/wiki/A-10C_Countermeasure_Programs_Overview And youtube is a power tool when you search DCS A-10C Countermeasures..... http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=dcs+a-10c+warthog+countermeasures&oq=dcs+a-10c+warthog+countermeasures&gs_l=youtube.3...1599.5357.0.5581.16.16.0.0.0.0.126.1175.14j2.16.0...0.0...1ac.1.11.youtube.-z9AlegAecU Cheers Hoss

I check out this site a couple of times a week, they usually have some good articles... Breaking Defense Hoss

BINGO!...................................:thumbup:

After that I think I need a Sedagive.............................:doh: Hoss

I have the Basic campaign, and the training missions. What good is a check ride if you have had no training?................ I did a tour as a Instructor, there was Theory, Demonstration, Summary, Test Validation to all syllabus that I taught. I pretty much stopped doing the campaign because it was made for people who have a lot more free time than I do to practice. The Training missions that come stock with the Sim are good but leave a lot to be desired. JMTCW............................ Cheers Hoss

I just went to apps on my ipad, typed in the iWarthog and it went right to it, I had to update the OS, but it downloaded just fine, and works great.... any plans to update it, as DCSW changes? Hoss

I have perused the forums, and can't find any reference on how to change your skin in game, either in offline or online game/mission. Found the intercom function to change loadouts............. pretty cool I like that one. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers

I can not get Multiplayer to work at all on the client side, I have gone into options and set it to Internet ADSL, I hit the client button and it sits there and looks at me for awhile. It finally sends me into the client room, I set the connection to Internet from LAN and it sits there and looks at me again, all the buttons are dead, finally I can hit new search and nothing comes up on the screen, I have downloaded the game twice now, once conventionally and once by Torrent and it acts the same with either version. I'm not using a router, so that's not the problem, I have PC Cillin antivirus, I have gone into the firewall and opened up TCP/UDP in and out for port 10308, and it still acts the same. Does anyone know how to get this thing up and running. My squad mate has his working with no problems. Any assistance is appreciated.

Lock On FC 1.12 will be in your Ubi Soft folder with IL-2 if you have it. And Flaming Cliffs 2.0 will be in Eagle Dynamics folder all by it's little lonesome. Now if you're on Vista or Win 7 I don't know how you will decide to install it.

No, it's not his manners, only his choice of words.... I would not of used "Smart", I would substitute this word with "Dumb"...... :music_whistling: Reprogramming my HOTAS is a pain, and the "Release Weapons does not work for Mavericks, I finally got it to drop bombs and fire rockets, but still no joy on Mavericks.

He's right, I can fire my Cannons all day but I can not drop bombs or fire Rockets or Mavericks in the A-10 using the mapped commands :joystick: Weapon Fire = Space, Cannon works all day............:gun_rifle: Weapon Release = Space + LALT This does not work with my new CH profile or via keyboard while the game is running. CH Keystroke recorder shows it is sending the command. If I remember correctly from my testing last night some of the other commands in the A-10 Weapons suite do not work either, I can not change PRS/SGL Release Sub Modes with the "Space + LShift command either via CH profile or keyboard. Quite a few bugs in the game.......... most obvious is there is no Zoom in TIR... That has me really:censored:ticked as much as not being able to fire Mavericks... Scenery is very very nice, you can see the difference in flying the quick mission in FC2 and FC, it' looks to be the same place, and the fps knows it too.:pilotfly:

Are you running one or two GPU's?........ Here are my settings for 2x 8800GTX and it runs really well on this system with ingame settings really high to maxed out. Oh yeah, I use nHancer to set my GPU, but most all these settings are in the nvidia control panel. nHancer settings for Lock On Enhancements AA......................SLI @ SLI 8x with no jaggies or flashing textures Gamma Correction ...........

Lock On works great, IL-2 on the other hand sucks because I can't get Vertical sync to work for very long and I just won't fly without TIR.......................

I use nHancer, I really like it, I had the problem with flashing textures when I first loaded up Lock On after a very long hiatus. I no longer have that problem.

43?.... Kids.... Happy Birthday Mizz.:holiday: ...And a girl/woman would never call herself an Old Dog....... leaves her open to the "B" word. Well, at least we men would never be able to call em that:chair:. heheheheheeee :megalol:

There was a piece on the show "Future Weapons" here in the States on Wednesday. It profiled the A-10C and showed the new displays, HOTAS in the cockpit and new sensors, plus new standoff capabilities. The host, an Ex Navy Seal got to fly the simulator, would of loved to do that.... :pilotfly:

The DECM pod on the A-10 is probably only a Deception Repeater, in essence it does not Jam anything. It only receives the incoming signal, amplify it, and play with either range or azimuth and re-transmit the signal back pulse for pulse. It amplifies the signal to raise the AGC of the enemy receiver to hide your real echo return, the closer you get the easier it is for the transmitter to burn through your signal. Real DECM (Defensive Electronics Countermeasure) have pre-determined signal thresholds that determine when it will respond to a specific Threat Radar signal when inbound, and when it will stop transmitting on the outbound run. I don't know how these guys modeled the ALQ on the A-10, so I can't tell you. I worked on DECM in the Navy for 20 years. Pilots self tested the gear with dummy loads before flight and then turned it off before launch. After they are a good distance away they turn it back on and put the system in Standby Mode. At a predetermined distance from target they would transition from "Standby" to "Repeat", and when the Plane got within lethal range the system measures the signal strength and would turn itself on and begin repeating/transmitting. It's only there to help you get in and get out quickly... not loiter....Other than that I can't really go into detail on how it works...............:censored: aka: ~BeoWolf~ :pilotfly:

Thanks Duder I thought there were two files I just could not for the life of me remember where the hell it was. Once this thing gets done defraggin I will see if'n that does the trick.

I'm having a problem with Track IR. I delete the file out of my config folder and start the game, My track IR does not work, so I go back and find out that darn folder is back inside my config folder again. It's a vicisious cycle and I can't get it to go away. I'm patched up to 1.12a and it won't stay gone in any of the versions. Is there another one I'm missing somewhere. I even use LoCfg and check the delete TIR file and it won't go away. Help please, I'm goin nuts.:dunno:
