  1. and this was one of the reasons why I didnt want to buy from a chinese company; they have a nice habit of ripping off other companies property for their own benefit. Didnt think it would be Walmis' software though...wow.
  2. I wish they would use ground textures with better than 20m resolution over the world...
  3. You take off, fly to wpt 1 while avoiding the nearby airport. From there you navigate to wpt 2, contact JTAC and patrol the city. Youll get random reports of mortar fire coming from all directions.
  4. if the AI cant see them, then I shouldnt be either considering they can see anything everywhere.
  5. so basically you just turned on The Golden Girls to get out of your seat.
  6. I finally got access to a metal shop with good working brakes. Im just going to build it with some scrap aluminum I have lying around here. Ill take pics when I get it finished bent to shape; not going to drill the holes yet as I am going to make it somewhat adjustable to position it on my rig.
  7. I just completed this mission today with the FCR - and it was great. Made this mission a piece of cake. Really a great mission to learn how to operate it, and even better...SSS FCR, ACQ SRC as PHS, and use your head to rotate the radar cone to scan your sight line. You can walk yourself over to the target like this.
  8. Im familiar with how headsets work in the F-18, A-10 and the F-16 for the most part, so I have a question regarding the IHADDS and the image superimposed on the screen. When I look around in any other aircraft, the horizon stays level with the horizon as well as the elevator tape. The compass swings to the direction you are viewing. However, the IHADDS image stays static: looking side to side, the horizontal bar will be offset from the horizon, the elevator tape stuck at its reference point, and the compass doesnt rotate around in the direction you are looking. Wouldnt any of this information change to where you look around the cabin or outside the aircraft? It seems like its very disorienting coming from other headsets that do just that, so Im wondering if this is a limitation to the head tracking sensors in the cabin.
  9. try it in a heli?
  10. Its Vne is 140kts and that's only in a dive. There's no way you get those speeds without pointing the nose down that much. 90 for a slick is cruising at base pressure and temperatures, and IIRC the gunship is limited to 65kts due to weight restrictions. 100kts if colder and less dense air pressure. If it starts to shake, you're too fast.
  11. I have DCRealistic. It's a nice touch; its just an additional external sound and camera mod much like simshaker is with haptic feedback. It shouldn't interfere with FFB at all, but makes me wonder now if the rhino, moza or others will play nice with buttkicker or jet seat...
  12. yeah, ignore the underline at the top as its not the correct unit. I underlined that after the fact to look at some...kills...that were more accidental than anything.
  13. damn I am glad I asked, I never saw that option before...thanks!
  14. IIRC there was a mod somewhere that would indicate which buttons were linked to a specific button on the MIPS display button box...like a line that coincides with what button mapped. Has anyone seen this mod, or did I imagine this mod once upon a time? Sure would like to get it if possible. TIA
  15. Its M4 (Hit Team-5-1). He gets clobbered by the main mast at the start of the mission. I was wondering why I got 85% Tacview-20241012-153904-DCS-TFH M6.zip.acmi
  16. NOt sure if it was an issue or not, I think theres a maximum times you can input a frequency into memory before it becomes 100% populated. I did ask though, waiting for a reply back.
  17. Im having a bit of an issue trying to get comms set up for blank presets on the right side of the COM menu. Currently working a campaign that requires me to use two different VHF channels, and selecting the backup preset on preset 1 (EUFD select radio, swap button, enter) I cant edit for some reason - it just gets wiped out to default or I cant edit it again to correct the freq. It will edit the first preset only. To get past this issue I want to select preset 6, and here I encounter the same problem; no values want to be stored. Heres what Ive tried to do: COM menu, select Preset 6, MAN, and this is where I get tripped up: only the first 4-5 presets currently can be edited so I assume I have to set up the channel from scratch. So how would I go about editing a new radio preset mid mission? Heres a bug I noticed while trying to edit a mission; its time stamped at the start of me trying to edit a freq on the fly. I would really like to know how to select a radio from the P menu...
  18. Im playing this mission right now, I have gun fire at wp2 and 3. Seems like after this past update, I get random game breaking triggers that happen or dont happen 50% of the time. Half the time my wingman wont lift, the other half the time he will. So hovering about 2 miles away from wp3 gives you the best vantage point in taking on the infantry outside the compound. Best thing to do is let George handle the gun and put his ROE green AFTER you take the Dshk, AAA, technicals and identified the infantry as AK. Hover over the compound and do a 360 scan with george to pick off any stragglers and avoid blue on blue.
  19. no airport boneyards of old soviet aircraft left in place? would have been nice to have one of those types of Medal of Honor style campaign missions...
  20. that tail plane looks animated, that right?? I always thought they were static...
  21. why you keep looking at my profile?

  22. Dont some of these airfields have abandoned soviet military hardware like jets, helicopters, bombers, tanks and what not lying around currently? I recall seeing images of a bunch of them sitting around around Bagram prior to the 2002 invasion and elsewhere around Afghanistan like Shindand. https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=soviets+abandoned+aircraft+afghanistan&iax=images&ia=images&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fthumbs.dreamstime.com%2Fb%2Fold-soviet-aircraft-yak-abandoned-aerodrome-krivoy-rog-ukraine-february-66256391.jpg
  23. you know, come to think of it I dont have a problem with the brightness levels of the MPCDs in the Apache unless Im missing something....I know for a fact though that my display screens are darker than hell in everything else. I wonder why that is, Ive been flying the apache a lot lately but rarely touch the other aircraft now. The F-15E is especially dark!
  24. My MFCDs are super dark, Ive been complaining about them since I got them. My TADS is perfect and honestly I couldnt tell you why, I just dont notice it being super dark for me.
  25. Ive been trying to fix that for months, but thats only on the winwing mpcd trash I have in my pit. the brightness on my TEDAC are awesome, its also fairly clear too. my only beef is that the monitor I have has a matte finished screen and just has a nasty glare when the sun hits it.
