Can someone post a screenshot within the cockpit showing the location of the damned WEP master switch? Can't find it... Also, is there a new manual?? The original early access one kinda sucks.

Same here! Flew in single player, Dogfight a 190 and managed to shoot it down, all the while checking out the gauges, which were in the blue. Did a carrier bolter and then came around again with hook down. Landed. Took off again, engine gauges blue, mixture full rich. Suddenly engine quits and down to the drink! (Rich mixture cools any engine, I know that from years of flying a real life Continental O200 and lycomings of all sizes) The whole idea of having radial engines was that they were very reliable, even when damaged because no "coolant" was lost. Cylinders could in theory be shot away or perforated by bullets yet the engines would still run, or so the tales go... Same issue with the P47... With this F4U if you sneeze, you seize! This cannot be historically accurate. Seems like a bug. (Also, in the new update they mention a "WEP" master switch.. where is it? And is it for the water Methanol injection or were they abbreviating "weapons"?)

Definitely having the Fw 190 as a zero is not fun. It takes punishment like a tank (maybe because of its designer??). Zeros and Japanese aircraft were known to burst and catch fire easily, no self sealing tanks, no pilot or systems armour protection. Or is it that the .50 BMGs sucked?

I find it rather unfair that enemy (AI) aircraft can ditch after being riddled with bullets and are not destroyed (and the kill is not registered). Further to this, If the player aircraft ditches, then it is immediately destroyed and the "kill" is counted. Ditching in WWII had a high probability of survival, especially near ships or land. I think this should be modeled and if AI aircraft are not destroyed, the player aircraft shouldn't be either. (It'd be nice to see the pilot bobbing up in the swells on a yellow raft, just as it can be seen dangling from a 'chute! Or at least bobbing with the mae west...)

I do get a map in mission editor. However, when flying either in single player instant missions or the mission editor flying my mission I don't. Weird. I do not even get the F10 blue screen as above, with airbases and flying aircraft. I tried a repair but got nothing. Started from my windows explorer and tried the dcs.exe there from bin-mt... same thing.... no go!

I just tried it and still no F10 map. I am on MT. Do not know how to go to ST. Not only that, but now the F10 button does not show anything. Not even the blue screen with no terrain. I am posting my systems options too just in case someone finds something weird there. If someone can point me to how to try ST I will much appreciate. Trying a repair now...

Hi, old fart here! What is "MT"??
-
How do I go about getting this report?? Can you please explain how to do this repair? I am an old fart and not very computer literate! Thanks

I updated DCS World a few days ago, to the latest version. Now my Mirage M 2000 is not working. Even though it appears in my module manager, there is no icon for it or screensaver in the splash page. It is not available for flying. I purchased it four years ago in May 2020. It is the only module not working. Why is this? How can I fix it?
