Raven King

Thankyou a lot. Well, I have to accept it was a misconception on my side. I thought it was supposed to be more... dynamic than it really is. It is doing exactly what you said it is supposed to do.

HI TORC! Thanks for the advice!Very nice of you. I appreciate it. Here is how I have it set: Logitech Software: -Device, select default: Joystick ID1. -Enable Force Feedback, check. -Overall Effects strength, 100%. -Spring Effect Strength, 100%. -Damper Effect strength, 100% -Enable centering spring force in ffb games, check. -Centering Spring Strength 100%. -Hysteresis 20 all over the five items. DCS settings: -Misc. Force Feedback, check. -Special, F-5E Joystick mode, Displaced Neutral (FFB) -Controls, Pitch and Roll, FF Tune Trimmer Force 100, Shake 50. And still, nothing. It is kinda strange: When I turn on the computer, the G940 "jumps" a bit, as normal. It is also responsive when I go to "calibration" in the Logitech Software, and as I press different buttons it vibrates and pushes to the sides in many different ways. But when flying, it doesn't vibrate, for instance, when I stall the plane or when I shoot with the cannon. When flying, it only reacts to the dead-man stick sensor i.e. when I grab or release the Joystick's handle. I don't use Steam VR. Only Oculus (which doesn't want to work either -_- ). At the moment of writing, I am updating all possible drivers in my computer with Easydrive. My specs are: -Alienware r2 -RAM 16GB -Core i7 -1 TB hard drive -Windows 10 Pro 64 bit. -GPU Nvidia GTX 1080 -GPU Nvidia GTX 780 -Samsung Gsync Monitor, Oculus Rift and... uh... lots of hope? I dont' know what I'm missing. This one is a real head-scratcher. A G940 with erectile dysfunction... pfff!!

I like my 940 in spite of all the drawbacks and problems. The lack of precision is actually a nice touch since I tend to fly Tigers and Fishbeds mostly, which are by nature kinda "Good'Ol Fashion Mechanics" types of jets. But to be sincere, since I have DCS I have never been able to make the FFB system work. I read a thread from a guy who shows how to set it up for helicopter, but I seem to be to dumb to do it by myself, and in general, since this hotas is kinda old, there's not much info on the subject. :( Does anybody know about a setting or a file I could download and open with the Logitech software to activate FFB for my F-5 and Mig 21? Maybe a good tutorial? Any pointers on how to make it work? I would really appreciate a helping hand with this. Thanks in advance. :helpsmilie:

The F-5's radar is only really useful in two ways: 1-In dogfight mode, to get firing solutions for the 20 mm canons and help you shoot more accurately. 2-As a psychological trick: Since the Mig-21 is faster than the Tiger in a straight line, in Alpen Wolf's Cold War server, some of us use our sets to spook zooming Mig-21s. Knowing how their RWR works, we can paint them and make them nervous before we actually see them. The least experienced pilots will then make a mistake out of uncertainty, like taking evasive actions and loosing speed, or climbing out of terrain cover and lighting their afterburners. But that's pretty much all you can do with that radar. That's why the F-5 is essentially a visual dogfighter and very dependent on GCI control. Aggressor Squadrons are so effective because they work in that way, guided by AWACS or EWR.

THE Mirage F1 looks like A DREAM COME TRUE! Only question: does it produce compatibility issues in multiplayer?

Hi Alpenwolf, Please tell me that you plan to include the recently released A-4 mod in the Cold War Server. Tha'd be soo cool... Best regards, El Zorro. :D

WOW! Guess what I'm doing tonight after work!! ????

The Force is stroooong with this one!!!

I don't care that it lost against the Tomcats in Libia, I don't care it got bombed in Irak or humiliated by the israelis, I don't care everybody things it is one of the worst fighters in history, I don't care if people think it's ugly!! Somebody develops a mod for the Mig-23/27 and DUDE: I am SOOOOOOO buying it!! The Flogger is like that humble average-looking girl who would be ever-loving, caring and faithful-to-death if you just stopped going after the hot chicks and give her one chance... And I even dare to say that, like most russian fighters, the Flogger has been more a victim of the ineptitude of the air forces it has served with, than the western abilities or superior technology.

Get both if only for a single reason: no matter which one is your "primary", you need to master the other one in order to know best how to counter your potential ardversary. After all that's the reason why you find Mig-29s in US Aggressor Squadrons even today. My favourite era of military aviation is the Cold War era because of its perfect balance between technology and honest human ability. Forget the F-35, F-22, Pak-fa..... over-reliance on technology makes people dumb (if you don't believe me, try once to remember all the telephone numbers of your family or to multiply 1970 × 1980 with your cellphone off). So, even if you only fly in a simulatior (for that is technology useful) retain and refine your airmanship by flying models which force you to think and keep your situational awareness in your head and not in a chip. Guess what is gonna happen as soon as they release the mirage F-1.... heheheheeee!
