  1. Found problem was down to Windows update which had installed an extra User/xxx/Documents /Saved Games/DCS folder. so I had multiple DCS configs in Saved Games. I deleted all and let DCS reinstate them on next run of DCS World.
  2. I've recently come back to DCS after a year or so away, due to work and study commitments and after updating the DCS World package I am now experiencing problems with the customized cockpit options not implementing when changed over to English for the SU25T (Devrim Mod) and the BS. I have tried repairing the DCS World but its still the same. Any help on this issue would be appreciated.
  3. I need some advise please on assigning a joystick button to function the weapon change on the SU 25T. The sim has it defaulted to JOYSTICK 4 on my Warthog Joystick but I want to change it to JOYSTICK 3 simple.....well every time I CLEAR it in the Options menu and then ADD the new button as JOYSTICK 3 and OK it, the next time I load up the game it has gone back to JOYSTICK 4 :joystick: Im sure we used to be able to make changes to these and the game would save it. I've not played the game in a while so Im thinking I may have just forgotten how to do it or there has been an update that has changed it. Please advise me, kind people.
  4. Would really like some help on this issue. I have the comms set up correctly i.e. easy radio disabled and I am using the correct radio for the different Jtacs, but once I have received the 9 line from the Jtac and I "copy remarks", he does not read back. Also if I manually enter the co-ordinates into the scratch pad and set up an attack, Jtacs tell me to abort once a weapon is released. Any ideas guys?
  5. I cant get to fm radio using TrackIR. How the hell do yo do it?
  6. I cant get the Jtac training to work. The coms to Jtac's seem to be broken. Antone else had this issue?
  7. Thanks Neil, I moved the DCS folder from my "savedgames" and let the game rebuild a new one and that cured it, but my saved campaign progress is now back to the start! Would anyone happen to know if this can be restored from the broken DCS folder?
  8. After the last update my DCS world will not load, just gets to 12% and comes up DCS not working. I have tried the repair function and also unistalled DCS World and Re installed only for it to do exactly the same thing ie gets 12% loaded and crashes. Any ideas before I contact support.
  9. Yes I realise its a a Bank holiday weekend but this is very poor "support". Any helpwould be appreciated.
  10. Like the post says. I raised a ticket a week a go and haven't heard diddley squat:( Ticket 22102. Please could a ED/moderator at least give me the courtesy of a response. Thanks.
  11. I did as per the above and I am now in a world of S~?t. I does not work fully. I managed to get A-10c going but BS2 and P-51. will not activate and I have also lost two activations on BS2 due to the fact that when you run the P51 de activator reg key it also deactivates BS2! The admins need to check this out fully before anyone goes ahead and runs the individual de activator reg keys. I have logged a support ticket and hope for some clarification soon. support ticket 22102 "I had a motherboard failure which also took out my CPU with it in such a way that I was unable to deactivate the modules in DCS World. On replacing the damaged components in the pc I found DCS would not launch any modules, all I got when trying to launch was a harware error has caused invalidation of product keys. I went to the forum and found a post that gave me three downloads with registry files which where supposed to clear the problem. Unfortunatley I only managed to get A-10c working but BS2 and P51 still will not work and I have also managed to loose 2 activations on BS2 as it seems to activate BS2 then fails stating the hardawre error as in the original problem. Any help with this would be appreciated."
  12. Thanks for all the help chaps. I was aware you could change slew rate int he MFCD but I wanted to slow it down in Axis control menu as I wanted to use the TM Warthog for BS2 as well as A-10. I have applied burnette's settings which has really helped with A-10 but its still too sensetive for BS2. I will try a tweaking session today and if I get a workable slew with the Shkval, I will post back with my settings.
  13. I have recently aquired a second hand Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas and I am in the process of geting to know it. I have already been inside it to de-grease and re-lube the gimbals and friction plate, as it had a sticktion problem around the centre point. This has made the joystick super smooth and a joy to use. The only fault I have is that I find the the Throttle slew control too sensitive in DCS A-10 (Mav and Lightening)and totally unusable in the Black Shark2 (TV Shkval). I would gratefully appreciate it if any Warthog users could help with recommended settings for this problem.:thumbup:
  14. Doh! I was using the wrong Mav's. As soon as I read Dejjvaid reply, the penny dropped. Cheers's guys for helping me clear that up.
  15. I'm trying to get Force Correlate Track to work as per Gerry Abbott very helpful Youtube Demo. (2mins 25 secs in) I have tried and tried , but I am unable to get the TGP to follow the Mav sensor. I am using version 1.2.2 and I am also using a Warthog HOTAS. I put in Force correlate as follows: 1.Put MAV into Force Correlate (Boat Switch Center) then slew the Mav to the aprox target and then Ground Stabilize. 2. I then slew Mav sensor and get the Target gate to collapse, make a SPI from the MAV (TMS fwd LONG) and TGP should now follow the Mav sensor as in the video.:joystick: I must be missing something, so I'm hoping a kind soul on here could help me out or point me to a post that will help.:thumbup: Edited as I had put China Hat instead of Boat Switch. Thx ilikepie.
  16. Jona I think you miss the point, why should you loose any for just updating the game to the latest version? I have DCS installed on 3 PC's and lappy's so I will now have to very careful when updating all of them.
  17. I updated to the latest DCS 1.2.2 from an earlier 1.2.0 and had to reactivate all my modules, so in affect lost an activation for each one:mad: I was not instructed to deactivate as I would usually do prior to DCS World and so I'm a bit peeved that now I have been punished for updating my DCS. I was aware that there was a problem with DCS world 1.2.1 so that is why I held off until DCS 1.2.2. but it looks like the problem is still there. Could an admin advise me how best to sort this out please?
  18. Thanks for the suggestions guys, I will try my hand at tweeking a few single player maps and see what that brings. Ideally my buddies and I will be in A-10's (FC2) hunting down tank formations and armored convoys but I would like some AA and Enemy AI bandits to shake things up for us. As I said we are at sea at the moment so no way of multiplayer with the outside world only a wireless lan and my PC running the server, so any help with co-op maps would be great.:smilewink:
  19. WOW! Does anyone play FC2 anymore? Surely some of you guys have played this on a co-op multiplayer map? Any help appreciated.
  20. Need some co-op maps to play on a wireless lan with a couple of friends. I have talked a couple of buddies into buying Lock On FC 2 so we can team up wireless and I can teach them how to "mud move" with the A10 and Su25T:pilotfly: We are working on a oil rig and there isn't much to do during time off! The only problem is the multiplayer maps included in FC2 are for player v player type multiplay and we never encounter enemy aircraft during play. So is there anyone with some good co-op missions or campaigns that I could get hold of, or is there a way of converting the single player missions to co-op multiplayer?:smilewink:
  21. Cheers for the info chaps. I plumbed for a Crucial M4 128GB and a WD 1TB Green for storage. So Im correct in saying that I am best putting OS and all my DCS, Arma II files onto the SSD and use the HDD for other none essential software?
  22. My Samsung HDD has just packed up taking all my DCS and other software with it. It looks like I will have to use up some of my precious activations:cry: Ive not been following PC developments over the last few years and I would be grateful for some advise. Should I buy a SSD and HDD and if so what is the best way to configure it ie OS on SSD or DCS on SSD? Or should I just stick with a normal 1Tb HDD as before? Please someone educate me.
