  1. Exactly. To identify a target you have to lock it (currently), see its friendly, un-lock, cursor goes to the top left, then drag it all the way down (much harder with TDC button bug where it doesnt move diagonally) and lock something else, and repeat. Such a pain. If I get more than 3 targets on scope it will take forever.
  2. Thanks for the help @ Reddit (Hoggit) I solved it. Went on windows calibration and did a reset to defaults, then I didnt do calibration with windows. I instead opened the Thrustmaster calibration software called "TM Joystick Calibration tool 1.13" and did the calibration for both joy and throttle again.\ Now it works. I think what happen is that both Windows and TM calibration settings were conflicting with each other.
  3. Hi guys, My Warthog left throttle is acting up, it only goes from half way to full and back. There is no interpolation either, its acting like a switch, either 50% or 100% no values in between. My right throttle is fine though. Opening TARGET Device Analyzer shows both axis working perfectly, with values from 0 to 16383 and very precise and accurate so I know my hardware is working perfectly. What could cause this problem in DCS? Video of what it looks like :
  4. Can you not make a pre-order list instead? I always fail, Id prefer to pay it now and just patiently wait in line instead of always missing the ball
  5. I got almost nearly the same specs as you. Can you post them?
  6. I assembled a new computer yesterday. Its basically the same as yours except I got a 1080 non-TI and I got 32GB of ram at CL14, same freq. Will see if i remember to report back.
  7. For clearing the cache you can make a .bat file with the follwoing content (change paths to match yours):
  8. Now the Hornet is out and a DCS BIOS lib for the Hornet is out too, i expect this to progress much faster. Would I be wrong?
  9. The stick PCB has a small electronic fuse. It stops the PCB burning with static discharge (can happen if you handle it). It should be on the lower left (if i remember correctly) if you got the underside of the stick facing you. On mine it got triggered and had the same problem as you, what I did was shunt it with a small copper wire (1/2mm length) since I didnt want to bother with sourcing the correct part. Maybe you should try that before throwing your stick away?
  10. Why not use the CMS (counter measures switch) on the stick?
  11. I use mine for PTT on Teamspeak/Discord and the shifted layer for PTT on SimpleRadio (SRS). I dont use the slew at all because its so bad. I even have the 3D printed concave finger rest on it, not the nipple and even though its better than the nipple it still sucks so i dont use it at all. For me, I think the push button functionality of it can go away, its not a problem. I'd like to use the push button as a separate button though, like others have done. Ideally a really small button on top of the slew (between the slew and the top part of the throttle). You would have to remove the finger from the slew to access it, so I wonder if thats effective as target selection but seems like a good place to put it for other functions, like talking. Currently use COMM FWD as target selection and COMM AFT as deselection. In all A2A airplanes, so TDC PUSH on F/A-18 is set to COMM FWD. Then use TMS UP and DOWN as radar antenna elevation. DMS as slew. In all A2G I use the COMMS FWD as zoom in and AFT as zoom out and TMS UP as lock.
  12. Deltaalphalima1 you should reopen the pre-orders, i'd like to get one even if I have to wait a few months for it
  13. Thank you for your continued effort developing this. And congrats on the great work so far :)
  14. I am already using full screen.. What a nightmare it is without it. Glad to hear you twist a little better now with cold stars on the Harrier, its a nice side effect the workout we get :P That said, my chair is one of those that rotates. I find myself rotating with the chair in circles unless I grab on to something haha and stretching my arm out to grab the mouse while doing all of this is a big pain, I never get comfortably sit again for a few minutes, major PITA.
  15. Hi, I'd like to know if its possible - and how - to have some set of keys to look at specific panels, like you do with non-track-ir and non-vr setups. Ideally it would work as setting the "center" of the VR to point towards said panel. This would help to reach those impossible to reach places like the AV-8 handbrake parking level that you cant easily reach while turning yourself 180 degrees and keep the mouse on the table when you are far away from the table as it happens when you have table mounts. If this does not exist, do you guys think maybe its a good idea to add it? Thanks
  16. Some patches ago you could actually see things quite far in VR. I was able to see AMRAMMs being fired at almost their max range by seeing 1 dot from the F15 and 1 dot from the AMRAMM and guessing by no RWR response that it was an amramm. I was also able to see Viggens out to sea when I was in the Mig21 flying above the mountains near Sukumi. Also dots. But it seems like they messed with that now and I cant see shit anymore. Tbh it was quite OP but it even out eventually because of the dificulty seeing things, even close ones, against ground background. They should have let that in to balance things out for us VR players. Good luck as I am on the same boat as you.
  17. If want to get a VKB MGC PRO, what base should I get along with it? What about extension?
  18. The only thing I can do to make it playable is to use EVGA Pression KBoost feature (forces gpu usage to 100%). I have to enable pre-running the game and then run it.
  19. Do you happen to own a TrackIr too? It could be used to "enhance" the experience. I am really interested in VR but the lack of resolution has been putting me off. Tbh i never tried it but I dont want to be shelling out hundreds of dollars just to come to the conclusion that I cant use it or dont like it. If you have time, can you post a detailed review of your experience with it and DCS? I only really play DCS so, this would be for DCS only.
  20. I dont even have wierd parking, what I have is them not doing anything. I have had my buddies run out of fuel and eject before any of the other AI moves. I tried fast forward but game crashes :/
  21. It takes a ton of time of sitting in the tarmac before anything even happens, for example you start at 15:45 and stuff only starts happening closer to 16:15 while time on target is 16:45. Would it be possible to have stuff start happening as you join in? Even if i am not the first in line to take off... I wouldnt mind as I love watching other aircraft take off anyway
