I can't even find my subscriptions and see if anything new is posted in the specific ones that I'm interested in so I don't log in anymore. I used to check every day but now I don't bother anymore, except for this one post. Over and out!

Very well, I downloaded someone elses lua file and that one worked so I just modified it to my own settings. It's working now anyways :)

I'm pretty sure I have the modified file in the game folder... :/

Hello, I've been modifying the countermeasures .lua-file for eg Hornet and always replaced the standard one after updates. However, now it doesn't work anymore. I still have the default settings when I start in the Hornet. Any ideas?

I agree. There should be some kind of template available that makes an 800 meter stretch of road 17 meters wide and also adds parking areas for rearming so make it as close to reality as possible. The roads in DCS are way too narrow to be used as road bases.

I also experience this from time to time. Even with radar turned off that lock still remains :/

I wonder if the Viggen radar was ever intended to find buildings but rather ships on the open sea so maybe it doesn't need an update?

No, I haven't seen that but I'll check that out more later :thumbup:

Hopefully some fixes for the light issues and hud glass that changes colour :unsure:

I got my answer in the Viggen section so this thread can be deleted.

I see. I changed the Awacs from late activation (mission starts via the F10 menu, basically a bunch of units are activated when a flag is made true), to a cold start from ramp. This changed nothing so I put him in the air, still not showing up in the knee board. Then I decided to make a new mission just to test. I put a Viggen on the ground and an E3-A in the air and now it works. Guess something is messed up in the mission I was making.

I believe it is, yes. I'll take a look and confirm after shift :)

Simple question really, how do I make frequencies show up on the knee board under "Groups"? In a mission I just made, one unit (a heli) shows up as 1-1 but not the AWACS for example. Anyone? To clarify, I have set freqs for various aircrafts and have special 1,2 and 3 set but I'd like to be able to use the group selector as well.

Yes it's possible using the "IR FRAMSTEGN" button. It's mappable and I've managed to change between pylons but I'm not really sure which of the key binds are needed.

Button number 8 has started acting wierdly. Sometimes it doesn't register input and I press again and then suddenly I have two eights instead of one. Guess it's starting to be worn out :/

Where is that filter? Btw, I adjusted the gamma setting and it looks a lot better.

Good to hear. I hope the lanterns and anti coll-light will improve in the future also. Another thing about the landing lights, you can see your own nose light illuminating the ground in front of your aircraft but others can't see it. (Running SR though and maybe that's different in OB).

I read that the HUD brightness is turned down at night start which is a good thing. Is it possible to have the CI (radar screen) also turned down at night starts? It's no big thing turning that down before turning it on but still...

Sources are retired Viggen pilots. However, DCS is a simulation and not 100% as the real world so maybe most weapons will hit regardless of correct QFE. I will do some testing :) edit: So, did some quick testing. Rocket attack, BK90, dive bombing and level bombing (both high and low drag test) Short version, level bombing will not work w/o correct QFE set. I tried using both RHM and LD and it seems that does not matter, BUT correct QFE for the target area has to be set.

Maybe, but radar altitude only works up to a certain level above ground, same in Hornet e g:thumbup:

No, you can fly with radar altitude but when performing bombing runs and such it's important to flip the switch over to "LD" so that the altitude is correct for the target area. You know where the switch is?

Correct QFE is very important for certain weapong to hit correctly, such as high drag bombs so what I usually do is check the QFE for the target and after takeoff simply set that QFE on the altimeter so I don't forget it later. Also the altimeter switch has to be in LD (LuftData/"AirData") and not in RHM (RadarHöjdMätare/Radar altitude). But when flying (usually low) between B-points before the M-point, I use RHM.

Oh, I thought the Channel map would contain Normandy as well, just be a bigger map of the area :)

What will happen to the Normandy map and those of us who already have that map? Seems a little pointless buying another "same" map :dunno:
