Have you tried deleting metashaders and FXO folders in Saved Games DCS folder? Also try renaming or moving your Saved Games DCS folder so it builds a new one when you start up.

Your SSD upgrade also becomes a RAM upgrade since you can use storage space to increase page file size.

You make it a modifier or switch. On control screen theres a tab to create modifier. Modifier can be added to any control bind. You just hold that down and press input. A switch gives your controls ( all of them) a new layer. It will switch back and forth between layers.

Have you went through control layout to clear double binds? By default everything gets mapped to stick and throttle. On control screen where it says "all" click on that and go to axis assign and see if stuff is bound twice. Under Options make sure game mode and game avionics aren't checked since that will use game controls instead of sim layout.

Theres the autumn sale going on right now so I dont think you can stack the new user discount on top of that.

Click the icon that looks like a tank (next to clock) to show units.

Instead of adding countries you can also just delete that section to make them universal . Then Save.

Long load times and stuttering could be shader issues. Try deleting Metashaders 2 and FXO folders from Saved Games / DCS folder. Also screenshot of Settings could help. There are several things that tank performance like shadow settings , MSAA higher than 2x, anf preload radius.

There is an auto-hover switch in AP but I figured unless you're fluent in Russian you wouldn't have stumbled upon that.

Welcome to the Forum and fun with control binds in DCS!

OK. I know what it is. Go to Options / Special MI24 and uncheck Control Helper

Is this in a training mission? Sometimes by default they use "Game" settings instead of Sim. Also check under Options / Gameplay that you dont have Game Flight or Game Avionics checked.

On controls screen where you see the word "ALL" click on that to open drop down menu. Go to Axis Commands and there you'll see pitch, roll, rudder are bound to to your stick and throttle and whatever else you have plugged into your computer.

Dont know if its just a CH Products thing but I also had to recalibrate my stick and throttle to get it working good.

You need to delete the MI24P folder from Saved Games / DCS / Config and redo all your controls. Controls are now MI24P_pilot. As per usual everything is now bound to both stick and throttle by default.

Hi. Welcome to the forum. The 50% discount is the summer sale. Not sure what you mean by new player discount. The other type of discount is Pre-Release / Early Access and is usually 20%-30% off. You do get points for making purchases which then can be added to a future purchase, even on sale. That's the only way to stack savings on modules. There is a "free to play" period going on as well to try out modules before purchase. EDIT: I do see "new player discount" mentioned in another thread. Wasn't aware of it and don't know if it would be combined with a sale price. My guess would be no. it would just allow a new player to get a discount without having to wait for a sale.

According to in game encyclopedia 9m114s are 40 kg apiece (80 kg=177 lb) and empty rack is 29 lb. So that's 206 lb plus unknown weight of launch tubes. When you load a set on one pylon it shows 507 lb. Doesn't seem like they should weigh as much as an S5 rocket pod.

OK, Just tested. Strange that it switches to limited aircraft. It has to do with that Historical List thing limiting available aircraft. Uncheck that with clock symbol at bottom of screen and all planes should be available. With US chosen in 2016 Hornets available bot not with Canada. Maybe Canada didn't have Hornets in 2016 or at least the Sim doesn't think they did.

Not sure Im understanding problem. Missions always start with default skin that you can change, as you pointed out. Thats a stock skin that only shows up if you pick Canada as your country but you can make a copy of description LUA, modify it to show up for any country and add to Saved Games liveries (custom skins). You can also open missions in mission editor and save after changing liveries so it will show up instead of defaulrt.

I get that you probably want an extreme close up like F4 allows but if shaking is the only problem with F2 go to Options / Misc. and you can change F2 view effects from shaking to floating or none for a steady view.

F2 stays where you set it I think.

On Pilot Weapon Panel there are 3 mislabeled tooltips. Range Insert should be (auto/manual), MG Burst should be (short/long/med), MG Rate should be(fast/slow) or (inc/dec).

I think it has more to do with staggering release dates. Hind will go into early access and then they'll trot out the Apache for pre-purchase.

I've tried new Saved Games folder again but still got crash. I wonder if not copying anything back in is the key. Along with Inputs I usually add Options presets ( not Options LUA), Views, Payloads, and Missions back in.
