Do not know if i have changed something or the latest update broke something, or i am just an idiot but now when i enter LSO "mode" to watch a track i can control the view with my mouse for a few seconds but then the white mouse arrow appears and i can no longer do so. Left Alt and C does not fix it, nor does pressing the middle mouse wheel. Anyone any ideas? Its a shame not to be able to view the action from the LSO platform given they finally fixed the replay tracks, thank you.

Not taxy lights, the suspected cause is the red tail fins flashing lights on AI aircraft, it is happening in the air as well, a bloom of red ridiculously bright lighting. I know and understand the module is early access but with each update they seem to fix something that breaks something else. I now have crewmen stood on deck who are grey all over. Same mission i set up before the last update broke it.

All i can say is download it and learn how to use it. Superb App and a must have for DCS. It makes life so much more simple. Virtual Beer to Skate Zilla for his efforts in providing it.

Am i the only one getting a sea of really bright red lights on the SC when approaching in the dark? It corrects itself and the landing area correctly lights itself about 2 miles out. Red lights issue for me appeared after the latest update. I understand VR users have reported a issue but i just did a night approach and it was almost impossible because the lighting for me was just blobs of red till i got in real close. The taxy light is also way to bright, no way would any marsheller come near you lol.

Not yet enabled is my understanding. Request Launch just tells the "Crew" to go to launch operations. Player at the moment can taxy to any available catapult and the crew sees them with the wing spread signal, the rest of the magic then gets triggered.

Its happening for me in none VR mode. Since the last update their are red lights on the flight deck way brighter than any other lights around them and they stand out from miles away, the flight deck looks like a sea of red traffic lights. Trouble is i cant figure out if it is Nav lights, the red shirts or something else because when i zoom in the problem disappears as it does when i fly close to the boat. The other issue i now have is every third or so load i spawn in a pool of bright blueish light, its really weird but again only since the last update. Fixing something has obviously broken something else.

You seriously could not make this up, just set up a mission with 3 x F-18 4 ships returning from a mission and gave them plenty of space to do it. Stood in the LSO Position fiddling with the cameras and the first 4 arrive, no 1 lands and then is rammed by his number 2 and the deck is now on fire with a big hole in it. 3 and 4 then land and ignore the hole so they can crash into their leader. Wait a bit as the wreckage is suddenly cleared and the next fearless 4 arrive overhead a Carrier now on fire and with a big hole in the deck. Hold my beer boys and watch this says the leader as he calmly lands and levitates over the hole and shuts down, closely followed by his mates who all do the same thing. Take the AI out or fix them please ED.

The wingmen AI doing weird things such as taxying through static objects, taxying within touching distance, or even hitting you if your not prepared to taxy at there breakneck speed and taking off before you has been an unfixed issue in DCS long before the Supercarrier module was added.

The AI seriously needs to be sorted, really annoying to fly the supplied full case 3 procedure mission on the Persian Gulf Map and hit my timings, heights and radio calls on the button followed by a good approach and "OK" landing from the LSO. Why the AI aircraft behind me decided it would be ok to land and ram me before i even got my hook up who knows? But even in Early Access that should not be happening. Ridiculous state of affairs, fancy LSO monitors that say Foul deck but programming that does not tell the AI aircraft that. Normally love DCS and sorry for the rant but seriously peed me off.

I had the jitters last night on the cold start FA/18 mission. I thought it was just me lol. I think it is a setting because i went into my NVIDIA settings and reset everything to application control and it has not done it since. My guess is something to do with antialasing but i am no techy so it is purely a guess.

The Cold and Dark mission the No2 just gets in the way. I actually do not see any need for him on that mission, he virtually limits you to the first two cats because as soon as you move he comes out the blocks like he is in a F1 Car and stops you turning left. As soon as he takes off i send him home lol.

This is not a new thing peculiar to Supercarrier, exactly the same thing happens at airfields, AI aircraft like to get up close and personal when taxying, i have been hit by them more than once, and they will take off without you and then circle the airfield.

Shadows setting is the only setting that seems to have any major effect for my GTX1070. Turn shadows off, 100Fps, Flat 80, low 50, anything above that i hit 40 if its not busy. I hope it is a bug and they can fix it, but i accept the SC is a bigger model with more animations. But as soon as i "see" the SC a 60fps loss cant be right surely??

Not Supercarrier but i had to turn off App Protection in Windows Security to get one ED module to install. I seem to recall i had smartscreen off as well.

Neither could I but of those who could see it, a few have raced to the parapet unhappy with ED's solution, i get that they are unhappy that you cant turn it off but what i do not get is why the darn thing switches off before you land. Leave the bloody thing on.

I don't think they are. First time i loaded the LSO position the screens were not there. They appeared about 20 seconds later.

You can't turn it off at the moment but Wags has already stated the ability to is planned to be added later. For me it is annoying because if you use it for reference it switches off again and you have to switch back. Bizzare. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=4334850

I am not tech savy so apologies but for reference i have the settings turned up pretty high and my GTX 1070 on a 244mhz monitor around the carrier sits between 48-50 FPS. As soon as i lose sight of the carrier i get a fps rate of 75-80. As soon as i see the carrier it drops again. It also "jerked" for the first time ever in DCS when i was close in tonight. Alienware cooling fans didn't like it either, they went full afterburner for a good 20 seconds.

Thats weird, for me Cold and dark starts on the deck. Ready to launch starts on the catapult. The recovery missions all start in the air. Exactly as the menu describes.

Got me intrigued now, deliberate bolter time (that won't be hard to do)

I had no issues after i landed and stopped. Requested launch and taxied to cat 2. Didn't need to stop but i taxy like Mary Poppins, guy must have been wanting his dinner because he was was waving at me already.

Fantastic module. My old eyes would like the IFLOS on all the way down but i'm loving it.

Agreed, brilliant utility for DCS. Everything is also plain and clear.

Agreed I am in Eastern Australia, arrives here generally in the middle of the night, with the odd exception.

Given it's early morning in Moscow, you have at least a few hours wait yet.
