He said deck, not tower, this is a picture of the tower.

I figured it out. It was roll not at ATT and by the time I'd get her corrected it had already come out of AP. It was a case of not having flown the Viper in a year. Thanks for the help everyone.

Great to hear, really looking forward to it!

Thanks for the responses, I will fire it up this evening and try again. Like I mentioned I never had an issue when first learning the plane a year ago, but suddenly ran into it the other day doing practice bombing runs. So to hold roll at level I would set AP to Pitch ALT Hold and Roll ATT Hold, correct?

I fly the Tomcat most of the time and I hadn't flown the F-16 in awhile until tonight, but I ran into a problem that I don't remember having before. The plane will not stop rolling left or right and I cannot focus on any AG workload without constantly trimming or rolling for corrections because AP does not stop the roll. I have watched several videos over the last 4 hours and my AP switches and settings are 100% correct. AP in the F-14 is a breeze and 100% reliable compared to the F-16, which is very surprising. Is it really that unsteady IRL? I find that hard to believe. It's done my head in to the point I'm about to buy the F-15E just to do AG missions in peace. Using an X-56 with zero roll issues in other aircraft. Any outside the box ideas before I give up on this bird?

Very nice, thank you. Would you know how to edit the size of the big gun's fire and extend the duration of the smoke by chance?

I'm having an issue getting the reduced snow mod to work. I installed the main mod and then the snow mod directly to my saved games folder (mod-terrains-caucasus) and (mods-bazar-textures) and I still have full snow in winter, any ideas?

Infantry fire is currently extremely unrealistic and far too deadly and the only work around of setting them to immortal is not a fix. Is there a way to mod the default accuracy across the board? I've never opened DCS files to mod them, but I am hoping there is a lua or some other simple text file to adjust this. Has anyone attempted to do this before?

I'm having new issues with infantry as well, but mine are that they refuse to fire, blue and red, despite being weapons free and within range. Your issue is odd as well because before I had this problem I never saw infantry disperse under fire. What mod are you using for the barriers? Is it Ranger's?

So, any update on this?

I don't have room for 2.7 and 2.8 at once and I think that's the case for others asking this question, so this seems to be the answer right here, thank you.

I had Nevada, PG and Caucasus all uninstalled and removed via DCS module manager. Restarted, refreshed and still the terrains remained on my disk in full. I have to delete them manually and then that causes issues when I want to reinstall them later. Can this ongoing issue be resolved please?

Thanks, that's what I was looking for

I've long made missions, but I'm just now getting into MIST, I was wondering if there is a one stop shop location for a bunch of ready to go MIST files (beyond what's in the download, as in user made lua's) I can download at once?

I reorderd my folders to match what you two have and now I have all my custom liveries available! Thanks you both! This was one of those problems that I kept ignoring because I had other pressing issues haha, but now it's solved. Hope this helps others who have the same issue.

Thanks for the explanation, makes me feel less like I'm taking crazy pills lol. So I was letting the mission play through to watch the rest of it and lo and behold the E2-D eventually landed, but it was a good while after the last launch. However there were two Tomcats that were supposed to have launched but were stuck in parking hot, so maybe the issue is aircraft being on a cat or perhaps the fuel state can force a landing, because I started it with 10% fuel and this was at least 10-15 minutes later. One other thing I need to check is the approach speed I set was way too high, when I looked at its landing speed afterwards it landed at 98kn. Will keep trying, but now that I know this is a known issue I won't be so frustrated with it. Cheers.

This is a problem I gave up on awhile ago, but I'd really like to figure it out. I have aircraft launching on cats 1 and 2, nothing launching from 3 or 4 and I have an E2-D Hawkeye approaching from 5nm out at 600ft and 270kn. I have Wpt1 bring it to within 2nm and then Wpt2 is a landing command. I've even reduced its fuel to 10% and it simply turns away when it gets to Wpt1. I have a sequential launch going on involving 2 Hornets, 2 Intruders and 2 Tomcats. The Tomcats are to use cats 3 and 4 only after the E2-D lands, but they are in parking until that happens, all the others use cats 1-2 sequentially. I had this same issue last year in a different but similar set up. Any ideas?

I've been having issues with infantry in general executing basic movement even, not sure if it is related, but likely. Will follow this to see a solution is found.

What is the definite and correct location for aircraft liveries? Also for ship mods, helicopters and ground vehicles etc? There is a livery folder inside of each aircraft mod file, example: Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/Mods/tech/VSN_A6A/Liveries Other mods have Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/Bazar/Liveries/mod name Other mods Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/Liveries/mod name It is quite confusing. I have many liveries that work and some that don't, I can't tell which one is the correct way.

So it was the fact that I at some point put them in a folder called aircraft, but I never knew what that watch/clock button did despite using ME for a long time, thank you both.

The A6A is not showing in my aircraft dropdown, but nothing has changed in my mods folder since I last used it. It is still in Mods/tech/aircraft. The E2D mod right next to it is working. Any trouble shooting ideas? Edit: Wrong thread, but if you have an answer still appreciated

I really appreciate the help though I think you might have misread, I don't have a Steam version, but looks like it's easier to manage there than in DCS! I had to move a ton of other files to another drive to make room for all of my owned terrains, because that's the only way I could get them to reappear in the DCS module manager, was to run DCS Repair and let it install everything, so I could then remove the ones I wanted. I wish they would fix this. Thanks again for the responses

Update after further testing: The ship named 'USS New Jersey" (no late or Korea in the name) will turn the main guns and fire at targets and there is sound when they fire. All other ships, whether Korea or Late versions, will only fire the smaller guns and there is no sound. It's not an issue because at least one modern ship works as intended. Surely it's a simple fix?

Thanks, but I apologize, I didn't mention that that was my original problem, it was only showing the terrain currently installed. I'm up and running now, but the only way I got there was to move 100+GB of my other files to a remote drive and let the DCS Repair reinstall all the terrains I own. This seems like a bug because when searching for a solution I saw other posts of the same issue. Thanks for the response though

How can one choose a single terrain to download? I tried selecting just PG but it still tried to install all my terrains. Several of the ones I own (and have used just recently before deleting) are not shown in the game's module manager and DCS Repair also tries to download all my owned terrains. I only have space for 2 and I want to select those two. How to do this?
