RogueSpecterGaming's post in auto waypoint not updating was marked as the answer
You don't SEQ anymore. That was a very old thing and was not correct. Correct way to select AUTO/MAN is to put the * over MAN/AUTO and press M-SEL (0) on the ICP.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in Master Arm indication on the SMS page was marked as the answer
Sort of kinda. When Master Arm is ON you get the "RDY" above osb 13 on the MFD screen, if in SIM you get "SIM". All that is there in the jet already.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in Clear visor option was marked as the answer
As someone who works on fighters irl and has 5 years on the F16, not once have I ever seen the JHMCS with a clear visor. For night flying they swap to using NVGs which is a completely different helmet (just the basic one). That thread you shared is a Scorpion helmet and does not combine JHMCS with it. The Scorpion is also a different helmet setup than the JHMCS helmet, and I believe that that helmet does have swappable visors, but the JHMCS does not.
So, I don't think ED is going to provide a "clear" option just because people want to use JHMCS at night. Take the JHMCS off, use NVGs like real pilots do. You get the same info inside your cockpit. Or just use the JHMCS still at night and deal with the tint.
Only the JHMCS II comes with a clear option but that is only when they do night ops and is only currently available on the F-16V.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in HUD Cursor Sensitivity was marked as the answer
The HUD slew has a different slew rate than other sensors, but if you have the Warthog throttle I suggest using a curve since that axis is extremely small. The rdr cursor control on the F16 irl uses a pressure based setup so the more pressure you apply the faster the slew will move.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in Is Lateral Trim Too Sensitive ? was marked as the answer
The TGP will give you slight drag pulling the jet in that direction yes.
If you have an axis to use for the roll trim I suggest using that as the trim hat on the stick is sensitive and you have to flick it to make smaller adjustments.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in Unrealistic GMT radar? DCS is too good? was marked as the answer
Your "F-16C real" photo is from a much earlier version of the F16C and most likely a much earlier version of the radar as well. And who knows if what we are looking at has moving targets on it. I think the squares a bit too big personally, but not too far off.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in AN/AAQ-33 / ATP Weight Question was marked as the answer
https://www.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/104527/sniper-pod/#:~:text=General characteristics,Point of Contact
The 446lbs is the pod weight itself. The pylon it attaches to is only around 50lbs. Total weight should be about 496lbs. I will send BN/NL evidence later.
Upon looking at my official sources with more info. That 446lbs includes the pylon weight. So the Sniper ATP is 425lbs, and the pylon is only 21lbs for a total weight of 446lbs.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in Unable to enter ACM Bore Slave while in NAV master mode was marked as the answer
I've just tested and if you look at the Radar Scanning (bottom of the FCR) when you TMS up long it will allow you to move the radar with your JHMCS. You are expecting to see the oval symbology, but you won't see that in NAV mode.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in Please fix Maverick cursor sensitivity! was marked as the answer
For the Mavericks we have yes. If we got the G2 or K2 then you would see a slight improvement but the D, and standard G and K are quite old. The USAF has slowly been phasing them out due to multiple factors and ease of use is one of them. Ive talked with plenty of the pilots I work with and they all say that the maverick is/was the hardest weapon they had to use. Plus due to some countries upgrading SAMs and MANPADs it is not a viable weapon anymore to bring into combat for modern day at least. But yes, I highly suggest tweaking the curve. I would not touch the saturations.

RogueSpecterGaming's post in Stores Config Light and Master Caution message with two fuel Bags on the Wings and after releasing all AG Weapons still in CAT/III was marked as the answer
Please refer to this forum above. This is correctly implemented. Not a bug at all I can promise you that. Just to sum it up, it is on you as the pilot to be in the correct CAT regardless of the caution. The caution lights are more of an "advisory" hence them being called "Caution Lights", whereas the lights on the right glare shield for example (Canopy, HYD, OXY etc.) are your warnings and that is why they are red. Also, per the -1-2 any stores with a TGP or TGP and HTS is always CAT III. ECM pods are CAT I unless loaded to a wing station. And any asymmetric loadout (to include when firing off AAMs) is a CAT III condition. Just two wing tanks is CAT I. It is a weird logic system, but it is correct how they implemented it.
Like I said per the -1-2 it is up to the pilot to know the correct CAT to be in. The -1-2 shows loadouts and if the CAT box is shaded in then that means the loading CAT in the SMS does not agree with the actual loading CAT in those cases you ignore it and stay in the correct CAT per the manual.
The CAT switch does not limit your G at all. With enough speed and the right conditions, you can rip the wings off the jet.
