fixed What am I doing wrong to hit a moving target with a GBU-12 ?
Fakum replied to JTFF-Marco's topic in Bugs and Problems
Well,, i know you didnt actually release a bomb in the video, so I am assuming when you do, the LASER is actually turned on, and additionally, did you set the laser code to 1688 in the IFC? Maybe you should post a video of your actual attempt? -
Aerodrome Data and Frequencies - Updated 02 July 2025
Fakum replied to Minsky's topic in General Tutorials
I was looking for Airdrome charts so I could use them for the Viper without having to write them down from the f10 map. I like what you did here, but I dont think I can use this info as the Viper takes the coordinates in a different format. The last numbers being 3 digit. Can someone point me to the right place? Thanks, -
I flew the Huey myself, solo. It was certainly a little different then I am used to. The objective for the Huey was to go hunting for targets, and mark them on the F10 map for the bombers. It was cool initially, but what I found out in short time was that it was very difficult to fly about, start taking on enemy fire, and try to dodge all of that while heading into the f10 map to create a mark point, then type in a description without crashing. Initially, went in with about 60% fuel and no guns. I did manage to make quite a few markings before I had to RTB for fuel. When I went back out for round 2, I decided to take door gunners for self defense. So off I went, and when I started to take some hits close by, I decided to cut the door gunners loose just to take out the immediate threat, and when I did ,the door gunner took out 1 gun right away, but then he just went stupid,,, as I watched the side of my Huey get chewed up hard, and the door gunner not even making an attempt to put a bead on anything, i figured he was out out of the game, even though his status was fine, I banked over hard to the other side to give that gunner a go,, and he just stared out in space? I got out of there! I posted up in their forums and asked if the skill levels were set in the mission planner that way but did not get a response. I wont bother doing thta gain in there unless that changes. ALSO, if I want to spot targets for Bombers in the future, I will only do it with a copilot so I can keep my head in the cockpit while someone else is in the F10 map marking.

yeah,,, why build 1 when you can build 2 for twice the cost?

Thanks, it was cool to watch!

I struggle to commit to memory what the description of any given ground target I may see in the TGP to be able to call out what I am targeting. I have been looking for an all inclusive, condensed, pictorial reference chart that I can quickly glance at to be sure I know what I am looking at. I can not seem to find anything yet. I have found some very handy charts for the RWR Symbols identifications, but they obviously dont incorporate ground units like BMP's and different types of tanks etc. Can anyone steer me to a location that may provide this type of quick reference chart? Also, as much as I would appreciate the advice, please dont recommend that I study any material to commit it to memory. I have been doing this for alot of years, and for sake of argument, it just doesnt stick, so its not that I'm lazy, but thanks. Thanks in advance.

Can I adjust HARM page Curser speeds
Fakum replied to Fakum's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
I dont have a Warthog, I have a Virpil, but my point is, is there no software (curve) adjustment in DCS Control Options to adjust the slew rate for the HARM Curser? -
I am using a microstick on my throttle and it works just fine for the RADAR curser as I have the option to adjust its curves using "RDR Curser Switch" X & Y Axis in DCS Controls Options. When I go from Air to Air mode to Air to Ground, and bring up the HARMs page, the curser speed is way too responsive and I want to tone it down I cant find any adjustment options or any other posts relative to this question. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,

KB Quick – Quick and Easy Kneeboards – Create/Edit/Organise/Publish
Fakum replied to ShaunX's topic in DCS Modding
Thank you very much for this utility! I have been fiddling with it and I believe I have a misconception? There does not appear to be any means to select the ability to omit the OEM kneeboard files from popping up when I open the Kneeboard. in other words, Im trying to make do when I open up the Kneeboard in game, all I get are the custom pages I created. Is that possible with this utility? -

fixed Nooo..What happened with the Huey Start Up Stability ?
Fakum replied to Volator's topic in DCS: UH-1H
Its not "new" at all, as docWilly stated. If you are just recently experiencing it, then that is really odd!
