Is there a mission where you are guided on a proper carrier landing w a hornet? Including comms and the significance of what is said/heard?

Thats what i had to do. Reinstall dcs (remember when this was the solution to windows?) I didn’t add CA and got my modules back

Well, v2 of enigma's mp server is up. Any idea where the campaign is?

did today's update and got this notice in the log: 00758.500 ERROR: Can't move C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\_downloads\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll to C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll: (2) The system cannot find the file specified. 00758.982 STATUS: Can't move C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\_downloads\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll to C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods/tech/CombinedArms/bin/CombinedArms.dll: (2) The system cannot find the file specified.

I have a 3090 connected to 3840x1600 screen with displayport and an LG OLED C2 television connected to the HDMI port of the 3090. The TV is on the right and designated the primary monitor.I deleted the options.lua in Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config so that DCS can start fresh. I start DCS and the game loads onto the main monitor as expected. The system options show this resolution: The main monitor is an LG C2 OLED connected by HDMI. In the LG settings, the aspect ratio is set to 'original'. If I try to correct the resolution to 4096 , then the game switches to the monitor on the left. I tried changing to a display port to HDMI cable for the OLED but it makes no difference. As soon as i bump the resolution to 4k, the game jumps over to the monitor. And it spills over onto the television as well as having the bottom cut off. It sems like the game is putting out 4096x2160 on the wrong display.

thank you. got it to work. only issue now is nav drift. since the targets are over water I did not do any fixes. I should have done a target fix. I was off by a couple of hundred meters. next time I will need to fly along the coast where I can have a couple of waypoints set up for nav fixes as well. I know, bk90s are not for ships but I was wondering what kind of damage they could inflict.

fixed

the files are visible but nothing downloadable. nginx 404 error

user files now also down- trying to download anything gives 404 error

dont remember. will try again. I thought the existence of an M2 point was sufficient and I thought it would switch to M2 automatically after B1.

bravo palikari

I made a flight plan in F10 map with a couple of waypoints, B1 and B2. I did the steps in the picture attached. The picture is a mix of three snapshots: 1)the F10 map in the planning phase on the left 2)a pic of the kneeboard page 3)the F10 map after BK 90 release I dont know why the BK 90 turned and headed back to Batumi ..

Thank you so much. I thought I was losing my mind.

I was doing some of the training missions and for fun I thought I 'd try converting B1 and B2 in the navigation lesson to M1 and M2. I selected the waypoint I wanted to change and then did this: Takt/In/9/waypoint as target/LSSKU --> changes a target waypoint to a nav waypoint. Didnt work. I install a fresh copy of DCS-virgin without any mods- same problem. What did I miss?

Thank you for giving me some more things to practice

thank you both for confirming my fears.

On p139 of the manual where it discusses the use of radar to obtain position fixes for Bx6-9, there is a gray box with the following text: CAUTION: Fix on a point that is a not a target waypoint and that is not a RB 15 waypoint will result in an own position fix, which affects the entire navigation system What does this mean? It sounds like it is referring to a radar fix to eliminate drift error (Chuck's guide section 13.2) The usual procedure for radar fix: AKT/POS, OUT, B1 to 9, then radar to T1, slew cursor to location, TV fix This results in the entire navigation system being realigned and INS drift removed. However, my understanding is that if I use an RB15 waypoint (Bx6-9), the fix simply ADDS a navigation waypoint for the RB15. What is the net result of using M1 and then doing a radar fix? Does it MOVE the previous M1 location to the new location? How do I use radar to generate a NEW M1 if I dont have any in the flight plan?

I've been flying the Viggen in the universal training mission https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3321332/ Spawning in the jet reveals there are already three waypoints. One at takeoff (Batumi, one over water and the third at the target area (old runways south of kobuleti) I get in the jet, start up, load DTC,and check Ref LOLA and press LS. The correct airfield ID is displayed (9011). Pressing B1 and B2 shows the correct waypoint coords. Then I go to the F10 map and add a little circle with the label B3 over some ships. In the cockpit I bring up the kneeboard, go to the Groundcrew settings page and change the to 'Cartridge from marks on F10 map. I then eject and then reload the DTC and repeat the instruction (9099) to the computer. But now only B3 is in the computer. I want to include the preplanned waypoints from the mission but I cannot see them on the F10 map. How do I add these preplanned waypoints to this new flight plan? Do I have to get their coords BEFORE I add the little circle to the F10 map and then add them manually after I reload the DTC with the f10 map changes? Is there a faster way?

@bones1014viggen

@scoobie @bones1014 do either of you have a suggestion as to how to get a readout of MODE (NAV,ANF,etc)? Peering around the throttle is an issue for me.

It must be a mod that is interfering because it runs fine on a 'pure' DCS. Attached is the mission. Interestingly, I cannot evewn edit the mission in a 'pure' DCS instance because it says the VSN F4 is needed. Universal_Training_Mission_(with_hot-start)_V1.05.miz

I thought maybe I touched a button so I repeated the flight and TOUCHED NOTHING. The EP13 just goes dark and nothing I do can bring it back. rb75-2.trk

I get one RB75 off and then the EP13 is dark. see attached track. rb75.trk

Paul's hardware also shows an advantage in MSFS at 4k for the 7950x3d but again only dx11.

@blkspadeat 4k even the min fps diffs are not so much -but they didn't test dcs
