strange... I always encounter this problem. Just had to reinstall my system after moving in a smaller case on my new µATX Board. Every time I load my controler profile, everything ist totally messed up. Pitch on the pedals and other crazy stuff just like the default settings. Before I had the patched version 1.2.3. For the new installation I downloaded everything again... Perhaps that would be the "different" version..?:huh:

Mates, does anybody know why it's still not possible to load an existing controller profile after an new installation of our beloved DCS World??? As far as I can remember that never worked before with any module/Title. (correct me if I'm wrong...) Really annoying if we consider the number of aircrafts we already have... Searched the forum, but nobody seems to have an answer...:( :pilotfly:

ok, thanks. Already had this info :music_whistling:

...there was a tool able to configure the aircraft's available weapon payload. Do we still have this option in DCS World 1.2.3 or do I have to complete the 27's campaign with the Mig29 ??? Don't like that kind of "cheating" but the SU doesn't seem to be a suitable opponent for those AMRAAM carriers :huh: btw: Are 8nm still BVR Combat???:book:

Performance of su27's missiles..??? I thought those missiles have been reworked? The only thing I can shoot down with the Su's radar guides missiles are transport planes and I have to be really close to them... Fighters easily evade my missiles in BVR Combat. No need to say that the AIM-120 seem to work fine now! :cry: Didn't try it yet, but I guess without the R-77 you don't have any chance of surviving or getting a kill in BVR...

Hi mates, I just tried the new 1.2.3 patch (in Su27) after a longer time on the ground. First thing I realize is that your flight members waste their fuel by using afterburners and airbrakes all the time in order to rejoin the formation, which never really works. They stay far behind me, even if I slow down. I observed a similar behaviour before while flying the Eagle, but in the Su27 I nearly never see my wingman over the right shoulder...:( The "close formation" order doesn't seem to work. "Line abreast" formation seems to increase the distance to my wingman even more. :helpsmilie:

...must have been! :megalol:

a few bugs I discovered after a few flight hours in the Eagle: The weapon control system is a little messed up. It shows for example that an AIM-120 on the left is rdy to fire but if I press the release button the missile from the right is fired. My fourth wingman is missing in the communications menu!!! :-( very annoying: Sound loops. Yesterday there was an allied flight, reporting that it engages a hostile (Phantom)-Bandit, for about half an hour. Isn't aerial refueling simulated yet? Have to say that I'm not the best in this exercise, but with the Hog I managed it several times... Are AMRAAM's a little "weak" now? According to experience they are the most dangerous missiles in DCS. I read about that missiles and their capabilities had been reworked, but now I almost only get a kill in BVR with the AIM-7?!?!? (Which I almost never managed before...) off topic: I hesitated some days before I finally bought FC3! And what can I say: DCS Modules are always worth the price, even in Beta state! I had the impression that it gives you a total new experience of air-air combat.

I guess KillaALF is on the right way... Read that for the first time, that you have to do some kind of "evasive maneuvers" to get those inertial guided weapons aligned... ...or did I get something wrong? Will give it a try... @Hardware: Im pretty sure, yes. And regarding summer: What summer are you speaking of? I think I never experienced one like that in 30 years.

...that's the point! After creating a mission, starting in the air: The CBU's say "rdy" on the DSMS page as I set an SPI to attack. After a rampstart they simply don't! I have no idea why...

comeon mates, i meant "nearly" no weapon... but no matter. I will try to give you a track soon. Was the first mission of the Devil's Cross Campaign, by the way. on the DSMS page the 105's were white and there was something different than "ready" in their "boxes"... (and NO, MASTER ARM was no factor!:music_whistling:) Weapons ready for delivery are green lighted, normally, aren't they?

:lol: sure. As I said, the problem never occured before. After Take off from runway I dont have any problem too. And as we all know, no weapon in DCS will be released after a short tip on the button... I think I will just download and reinstall the latest version. . . @release Window: I know that, and never did it in another way. Still: "NO RELEASE!" lol, just read my first post. Sorry guys, I really know that there isnt anything falling through anything with those inert guided Bombs. Still quiet early in central europe. But doesnt change anything to the problem...

Hi Folks, yesterday I did my first Ramp Start Mission with the latest patch. I fed the Hog with some truffles, as usual and it became alive. Everything fine, no warning indications on the panel to the right knee. Over the target area I wanted to deploy some CBU 105's. Everything setup, pipper falls through reticle, but NO RELEASE! Tried it several times... Guess there has to be something aligned? Im sure that proplem never occured before...:helpsmilie: another one: It seems that the 1.0.0.8 patch was much more stable than the 1.0.0.9. With the 8, it almost never crashes to desktop. Now i would say every third to fourth mission I end my flight on the desktop. Anybody can confirm that? btw: I use the "patched" version, perhaps the full 1.0.0.9 download version would be better? thx 4 your answers, mates!:thumbup:

good to know!!! :thumbup: one more cool feature!

:megalol::megalol::megalol: well, I guess that's the point! lol Just tried to pull the Throttle up. Didnt noticed that before. Very Cool! anything more I need to know about this incredible controller? :pilotfly:

Ah, yeah, just forgot that... I activated that option, but it doesnt seem to work. All switches are always in the position according to the mission. (ramp start or start from runway) btw: I didnt install any software. Just plugged in and it works. Do I have to install anything so that DCS fully recognize the HOTAS? In controls it shows me the Warthog stick & throttle, but in start-up procedure Im not able to move the throttle until I started the corresponding enginge by keyboard input.

got it yesterday. No need to say more than just "... every penny!" :thumbup::thumbup: But some things are confusing me a little: -Shouldn't I be able to start the engines with the throttle itself? (Can't even put the start/shutdown commands on other switches on the throttle...) -What are the 4 switches in the upper right corner of the throttle for? (Eng Fuel Flow L - R; Norm/Override and Eng Oper IGN Norm Motor) -You guys really use the Throttle Button as a second Autopilot engage/disengage? -What about the "other pinky swith" on the stick? Someone got a good use for it? -How do you deal with the Hog's Slew Control? Wish it would be a normal coolie hat, buts it's a kind of trackball/ministick Sorry for my noobish questions :music_whistling: Tried A-10C about half a year ago in the BETA status and I'm now getting into it again... THX for ya help mates! :pilotfly:

At some places you can still pay with hemp buds like you guys did in "the new world"! Perhaps the reason why the dollar is green... :megalol: just kidding mates...

If I would have a CC, I could buy it for you. But was the same for me. Had to ask a good friend of mine to buy it. Just the same for BlackShark...

Is the pre-purchase worth it? simple question... simple answer: HELL YEAH!!!

same difference as left and right. it's the direction! :book:

Hi guys... Just want to add some Georgian Hammer Mission which seem to crash very early or after switching view through aircrafts (F2). btw: I get an "memory couldnt be read" error message on my Win XP 32 System. (i7920 on Asus P6T with 3GB RAM and nvidia 275GTX; HOTAS COUGAR + TrackIR5) 2-2 2-3 3-1 3-2 7-1 7-2 8-1 8-2 Missions 1-1 - 2-1 and 4-1 - 6-2 seem to work! (switched through aircrafts and took off without [hardware]crash:pilotfly:) Hope they will pass "further tests" cause I really need to blow something up today! :lol: @ED-Team: Never thought that such a flight experience could be possible. THX a lot and please keep on working for ever! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Not really a "small detail" but I love the fact that you can throw your head around to the engines (with the trackIR of course) and watch the bad guy's tracers come closer after strafing some ground units...:thumbup: Always a reason to spare at least one tank!

another question on JDAM's: I expirienced that those Jay Damn's wont drop in pairs... you can program it in the DSMS but only one will fall of... Anybody else noticed that? With Laser guided munition it works well... :huh:

Try this one mate! http://www.hobbylinc.com/gr/tam/tam61028.jpg
