  1. Hey guys just so you know, there are many options for HOF and they are set on the ground, dictated by the days load plan, these functions are on CBU's with a(n) FMU-140/B Fuze on it. HOF can be set to 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, 22, 26, and 30 [x100ft]. This was always a huge problem with A/C such as the S-3 as the pilots never really understood HOF and would often release them well above their intended altitudes or to low usually resulting in a big water splash. These shortcomings have kind of fazed their use in the Navy out although Marines will still usually load them. With the use of the JSOW now, HOF really isn't important as its all a 1760 program Now I haven't played with CBU's in this game yet for some reason. Maybe i'll put that old Ordie expertise in the pit for a few. You guys can search for the NWP 3-22.5FA28A/B/C/D (A1-F18AC-TAC-300) if you want more of a pilots TAC guide.
  2. A little FYI to the DEVS. AIM-120's are not authorized/legal loads on any single LAU-115's. They must be loaded on LAU-127's on sta. 2/3/7/8.
  3. There is no left selection for the weapon select switch, not on any legacy or super hornet
  4. This is all I get when opening model viewer. This location was: CoreMods\Aircraft\L-39\Shapes\L-39_C.EDM Nothing shows. When I went to the other location the post above I got the F18 with MISSING TEXTURE written all over it. Why does nothing show up?
  5. If you drop it on youtube ill for sure like and subscribe :D
  6. Don't know if anyone noticed but the console lighting in the Hornet is White/amberish, not Green
  7. Can you add commands to the VIACOM plugin? I Have a VoiceAttack profile that uses "Airborn" command to basically Flaps Auto/Gear UP, etc. Same for my break I say "On Final and it sets my jet up. Again can they be added as commands to the profile?
  8. I just saw this. Look a this link, maybe it works the same way your looking for w/ some tweeks. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=217498
  9. I like doing my own paints for the planes I use. I did a lot of the paints for the VRS superbug for FSX and P3D so looking at learning how to skin w/in DCS. So I know how to use the templates for the above but when your saying Roughmets like I say Alpha, I have no idea what your saying, lol. But in FSX Alpha and Spec are the layers that give the shine so to speak but was never able to get the glossy chrome effect so was looking at how to do it here since DCS is my new addiction. If there is a paint guide or tutorial do you have a link or something?
  10. Does anyone have a paint guide/tutorial for the F18? Specifically the use of like the chrome coloring; how to do it? And (2) is the alpha applied the same way it would be in FSX?
  11. all my cables are bundled except for my sticks, they are also routed a different way, guess just for how I have everything placed. But it doesn't matter what game it is I get those same un-commanded actions. They are at random times too, thought it may be my VoiceAttack but happenes with that shut down too. Usually ill be at FL200 @400kts and I just drop from the sky they I get the Gear audible. This pic, this time was a first. I thought about a powered USB because I get tired of having to shut down and disconnect to play other games. Im looking at going VR and maybe Thrustmaster soon.
  12. So I use an X-55 by Saitek (FOR NOW!) and I'm so done with them. I constantly get un-commanded key commands and this was a result. So while on the ball I was coming in, fully configured, and this happens! No time at all for power to come up. I got the gear call and alarm as my gear retracted itself, got on the throttles and still fell out of the sky into the "1". Don't know how but thought would make a funny pic, so here you go!
  13. Now I remember an even quicker start. Once in Fallon we had two pilots merge into one another, one ejected in the mountains, the other made it back w/out a wing. We launched a pilot, he got in after running out, no checks, started the right engine, the left when taxiing out and left in full burner all the way to his WP. Circled and came back an hour later.
  14. Well your Alert 5/7 are usually sitting on the CATs already, meaning you will already have your alignment, A7 tuning already completed, caontrol checks already completed. If the Alert is called away they start and launch. When alerts are set, the pilot has already done his FLbits and everything else and is sitting for however the alert is set on the CAT. Alert 15/30s, the pilot is suited up and waiting in the ready to run at a moments notice, a pilot has already performed the alert startup and checks, gnd power is set. Some squadrons leave running, some dont.
  15. I was in a single player Quickstart mission, Gun and AIM-9. After taking out the 3 MIG's I got on the waypoints. At roughly 50nm from the WP3 base (I forget the name) I set my TCN to 44x for the field. I was not getting any decrease in range all the way up to the field. I've trie at 40, 50 and 100+nm with the same indications. Once over the base I even showed a range of 153nm even though I was over the field and had the TCN on my HSI
  16. Hey guys, Does anyone have a voice attack profile for the F18? I saw Frooglesim's video on how to make it, tried reaching out to him but guess he just wants hits and likes since nothing back. Ive tried for the "COMMS" portion and keep running into problems.
  17. Hopefully they add ACLS as well.
  18. Sup SUBS :P, nice Vid!! Think I gave up on VRS with this
  19. Wags, Are we going to get this update for the stable DCS v2.5 soon, or is it just available for the beta?
  20. I would open the mission in your ME and look at the Triggers. It will prob have a time to be seen
  21. Has anyone found out how to mess with the 6pack/Street lighting on the Stennis? By this I'm talking about the Ambers/Greens on top of Pri/fly
  22. Hey all, I've tried adding some thunderstorms in my missions and still get nothing. What do I have to do to get it to rain and all in my mission editor?
  23. Firing and Drop orders should always start from the outboard to inboards unless of course you step to a different station. Now if you want the realism, load it out as we actually would on the real A/C, try an OEF/Alert load. Sta. 5.7 D/T's, 1/9 AIM-9M/X, 1 x A7/A120 Sta. 6 and a GBU/MK 82 sta.2, FLIR of course. Make every shot/drop count.
