  1. Scan Zone Up/Scan Zone Down
  2. So you edited one of the current presets and got the issue? Which preset?
  3. Ahhh. That would be the difference. Thanks.
  4. Ok. I’ll bite. How do you launch two instances of DCS on the same computer at the same time? The times I’ve launched a second instance by accident, I’ve gotten an error message.
  5. Ummm…the MiG-29C is the MiG-29S. “C” is the Cyrillic “S”.
  6. Always a possibility, I guess. Didn’t realize those key commands existed for the F-15C. Same key command but different results requiring two different descriptors. EDIT: So...I just checked the F-15C key commands and, for the F-15C, RCtrl + - and RCtrl + = are described as "Predicted Target Range Decrease" and "Predicted Target Range Increase" respectively. So, if it was result of something you said/did, they got it backwards as well. Not a confidence booster.
  7. The A2A birds (F-15C, Su-27, Su-33, and Mig-29A/C/G) all have dedicated commands to enable/disable NWS. The A2G birds (Su-25, Su-25T, A-10A) do not and it would be helpful, if they did. The A-10C and A-10CII do have the capability but they, of course, are FF modules.
  8. These mods use, as far as I know, use FC3 aircraft as their base. So the F-22 would use the F-15 controls, the Su-57 the Su-27. Any specialized commands are usually included in a text file or something similar. Just download the FC3 manuals you need.
  9. Is the problem that, even when you set it in the UI Layer it doesn’t work? Also, have you tried to run Repair to see if that fixes the issue? I’m away from my PC for a few weeks, so I can’t check to see what mine looks like, unfortunately.
  10. The key binds are still there. Just called something different now, for some reason. You might want to make it a bug report because of the mis-naming.
  11. If you look at your screenshot, you’ll see that they’ve changed what they call it to: Radar scan zone increase, radar scan zone decrease. No idea why it was changed to that of all things. You’re manually entering the range to the target, not changing the scan zone.
  12. That’s something you’d have to ask ED about unless you bought it twice.
  13. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/709/ Once you start it, you’ll have two options. Select “check all files (slow)”.
  14. Any modules purchased through the DCS website should be listed in the module manager to be downloaded and installed. Any mods would need to be downloaded and installed again, unless you can find them somewhere in the path “F:>Saved Games/DCS.OpenBeta/…” or wherever you were instructed to place them. EDIT: If you are missing pieces of purchased modules, do a slow repair. That has fixed a multitude of oddities for me in the past.
  15. In the simplest of terms: Select Multiplayer from the main menu. Peruse the server list for one that suits your needs. Highlight a server and click Join. From the menu that appears, select your coalition and aircraft. Click Briefing. After reading the briefing, click Fly. After entering the cockpit, relax and enjoy yourself.
  16. We can only hope.
  17. It's the launch permission setting plus your use of the jammer. The default, which is what you have set, is for the F-15E to launch at a random point between max range and the no escape zone. With this setting, plus your use of the jammer, you almost guarantee that he won't launch until the NEZ. By then you'll have a missile well on its way to him. I edited your TRK so that the launch permission is simply "max range". Now he launches and cranks as soon as he burns through--which, in DCS, is the same time you burn through. And you eat a missile. See attached TRK. CommandT_Edited Bandit does not crank or shoot.trk
  18. If it works for you, it works for me. Depending on how you want to organize the Missions folder, you can add folders to it as you wish and reorganize things however you want. Here’s a portion of mine: I have to say, though, that your installation itself seems entirely screwed up.
  19. Yes. It’s in Russian. Check PM
  20. To check where DCS is putting files, start the sim and, from the main menu, go into Options (the gear wheel in the top bar). Select Controls. Select the UI Layer in the drop down menu on the left. Highlight the column for your joystick and click the load profile button. In the window that opens you will see the path to the correct folder in Saved Games along with its name. That's the folder that will contain the Missions folder along with a number of others such as Config, Data, fxo, MissionEditor, Movies, ScreenShots, Tracks to name several. And that's the folder to use. And that's the folder to which you can add additional folders in order to organize your missions. And that's the folder that you will access when you select "My Missions" from the Mission button in the Main Menu. If, for some reason, it's putting things into your actual installation folder, there's a way to change that but let's not go there unless we need to.
  21. That’s my question. Why would the OP be confused as to why missions weren’t saved to Saved Games/Missions, if he selected a different location in the first place, unless there’s an issue of some sort? And the 2nd question is why there are any folders at all in Saved Games/Missions unless he put them there?
  22. Only with the "Folder Browser" check marked. Otherwise it automatically puts you into Saved Games/Missions. From there you select the user created folder in the Missions folder you want it to go.
  23. That is really odd. Why would it be saving missions you created in the core installation? It's not supposed to do that. It should be putting them into your Saved Games/(Your DCS Installation Name) folder. You can organize that folder any way you want and that organization will show up under "My Missions" when you select Missions on the main screen.
