so I refuel no problem then every one of my flight get stuck on the boom and don't finnish.

George still crashing into ground. all I needed him to do was hover.

Hi, It feels like the cockpit got darker after last update and is now unusable without turning gamma up which washes out everything outside.

its sooooo much better now. Not perfect but displays are usable now :) Thanks ED!

it can be hard to judge speed and not overtake the tanker if you come from behind. I always try and come from left. Unless you are locking the tanker up with radar that is. You risk frying the refuelers doing that though,.

being able to do 90% of operations using just the HOTAS is awsome, and after alot of practice you start not even thinking about the next operation and it just flows,

Same thing last night with the F16. Have to let him pass and make his own way to runway lol.

Try setting up 5x4 ship flight of bad guys shooting AGMs at a US carrier group. Entire group is sunk every time. They are lethal to US side. That maybe because the defense missiles are exploding 80%of the time are miss the rest.

been like that for many months.

I was quite shocked last night when setting up a mission from the carrier that the AI seem much much better, maybe i missed something but they land and taxi without crashing into each other and it seems they de-spawn if they get too close which is better than exploding. Doing more testing tonight but yea in general they all seem much better

dont forget the WP normally defaults to around 6000+ feet, ensure the WP you want to use is at ground level

Hi is it possible to get the AI to fly to tanker? I know this was an issue with the Hornet and you could edit the Comm file but I don,t know if I can do that with the F16?

Hi, Did you change something on the KC135MPRS as its now impossible to refuel with. The Wake turbulence from the aircraft is exactly where to basket is. Go even an inch above where the basket normaly rests and you lose all control of your Hornet

+1 for this option

you have to remember the carrier is generally far from land, so far from objects that are sucking up CPU and GPU.

Would love someone like Thrustmaster to make a pressure stick like that. Would be alot of R&D for a limited market though.

not getting update.. any ideas? just get last version

Hi, Anyone else have this or is it just me. Happens when every I set a navigation point in the F10 map view. For what ever reason I cannot return to the aircraft F1 or F2 (in fact none of the keys will get me back and I have to force DCS World to close.

I tried and although it works its almost impossible to see anything :) I am asking because I managed to fill my tanks for the first time in A2A refueling and got carried away burning around the Nevada map until it got dark. Could not see anything with them. Thanks

So I was practicing with the Lantrin pod and managed to drop an LGB but pressed something that made it so any keys that I pressed would make a clicking sound as if you were pressing buttons in the cockpit, all normal computer functions were lost so I could not even close the program. Had to do a hard restart. Now I'm scared to use the Lantrin Is there anything like that that locks you out of normal computer functions?

you can jump to the RIO Seat and the (Iceman) AI will take over and fly for you. He cant follow waypoints but you can use the same menu you use for jester to ask him to change headings/speed and altitude. You can then sit and practice with the RIO station. He cant dogfight though so don't do it in combat :)

Another frustrating session. I am struggling, every time I get close to the basket the aircraft pitches up or down no matter if I am trimmed properly. I,m not able to put in any pitch/roll without going into PIO and having to back off. 3 days of trying, my arm hurts and I really wish there was an "easy mode" as this is the only thing I cant do well enough. Got a few 3 wires, dropped some bombs etc I feel like I cant continue without being able to do AAR as its such a fundamental part of Carrier base aircraft. :noexpression:

When Trying to A2A Refuel. "The Force will always be with you!"

Thanks all. More practice I was able to hook on for about 20 second's ????. Not much but something to build on

So I cannot for the life of me refuel this thing from a tanker. Burned through an entire 20000lbs of fuel and simply could not get even close to the basket let alone connect. I have been using DCS since the Beta of the A10c and never had any problems with that or the FA-18. I figure its the most important part of any Naval aircraft to be able to refuel so after some practice takeoffs/Landing I headed to the tanker....
