I'd rather he call bandit clock code better. His calls are useless because it seems like he has to say everything in order in his script as it happens. So when I have out maneuvered a bandit and have him on my nose, he still says "6:00! 6:00 He's gonna fire!" Can't stand it. v6, boNes

I did see Baltic Dragon flying the C-130J and I think someone was filming, but it was probably for that person's YouTube channel, not Baltic's or ED's. There was also someone from ED there with Baltic, I forget his name, but he wasn't really there to represent as much as to be on hand. Expo was 90% racing, 7% flight simming, and 3% VR, to give you an idea why there is not much footage for the flight sim side. There was only one flight sim cockpit, and that was the Airbus one. There were no other flight sim cockpits, only 1 rig. All the other flight sims were tabletop with HOTAS. And yes, the C-130J was in an area like a LAN party, but that was OK. I myself probably would have filmed more, but I had my son in tow and had to keep an eye on him which wouldn't make for good video footage. v6, boNes Baltic Dragon at 01:26:50!

Got a chance to fly the C-130J. It did, with all due respect, feel better than the C-130 mod. But then again, I was not using my own rig or HOTAS so pretty much everything I fly will feel different. It was nice though. I met up with Xpendable there and he was saying that he inadvertantly had the C-130J throttle thrown to reverse, and it started taxiing backwards. By the time he had gotten control of it again, it had been backward taxiing at 80 kts! Wow. It was also great to meet Baltic Dragon, what a great guy. Here is me, Baltic Dragon, and Xpendable. v6, boNes

Any of the Foothold missions in MP. On rare occasion it might work, but not very likely. v6, boNes

I've done that with VAICOM Pro, but again this is dependent on the mission. Sometimes Jester is happy to "set map marker 1 to fixed point" and other times he just plain ignores you. v6, boNes

Well I do it if I'm targeting, say, a building. I have and love VAICOM Pro but there is no "Look for buildings" command. I could do it from the front seat, but the eyeballs command, then head adjustment takes longer than if I went in the RIO seat and did it myself. So I noticed it's mission dependent. I don't know why. But when I flew a different mission, Jester was fine leaving my designated target as his new designated target. But in other mission, he ignores it and goes with his previous one. I dunno why. v6, boNes

Lately, if I jump in the backseat, find a target, designate it, then jump back in the front seat, Jester immediately drops the target I designated and snaps back to whatever target he was watching before. If I tell him to track the designated target (QDES) he does not track the target i had designated either. I don't recall him doing this before. Am I missing something? I know my designation went through in the backseat because I see the blank symbology i the LANTIRN replaced with the TTG bar and countdown. I also tried undesignating and redesignating but it didn't work wither. v6, boNes

I would shut down VAICOM Pro and DCS then try deleting the export.lua in the Saved Games/Scripts folder, then restarting VAICOM Pro and see if it works then. It should make a new export.lua to replace the old one. v6, boNes

Good to know, Max, thanks. Maybe it happened before but so long ago that I didn't remember it. v6, boNes

I thought of that but-- 1) I couldn't find the axis setting at the time (I did now) and 2) Not having to do this before, or for the other modules, is this a bug? It only happened after the last 2 patches. It works now. v6, boNes

After the last patch, the aircraft always by default has the left and right wheel brakes engaged. THey appear fine in the controls adjusment, but not in the pit. If I push my rudder toe brakes to full brake, the brakes disengage, so the toe brakes on the rudder is opposite what they should be. I tested it in the F-16 and F-14 and it worked fine. it only happens in the Hornet. Anyone else experience this? v6, boNes

The Kola map on Steam is only 12% off, not 30%. I thought maybe it was just different because it's Steam, but all the other discounts in the original post are showing as they should in Steam, just not Kola. v6, boNes

Thanks all for the great info. When I use the HARM with HTS, I use POS EOM and I don't fire until I am pointed right at the target (VV right on lubber line, in between loft envelope markers). So it could be the target was destroyed before I hit it. Also that way if the target hasn't moved and the radar turns off, it will hit close. Still there are times when the HARM gets lost. v6, boNes

OK,thanks! v6, boNes

Thanks, that's pretty much what I'm doing now, so it will have to do. I just wish it had something where you can slav it to say your VV/FPM like you can in the Hornet. v6, boNes
