Yes, they can be seen only at some specific angle. Now I can only see it FC3 F-15. Yes, as you said, it is highly possible not caused by cleaning scratches. I don't think those are scratchs. But I don't know what is the name. So I use an incorrect name try to describ it.:cry::smilewink: I keep this question for long time. Maybe some friend in forum can answer, What are those? Is there a common name for it? What cause that? Thanks

Thanks Hope you can fix it. More or less , like or dislike depending on different people, but it is real !! Good or not good for shooting should be considered after reality. Because real really makes DCS different from all of the other simulations.

I like those scratch on cockpit windshield. it will show silk-like reflection under sun shine. But I lost them. both for FC3 SU-27 and MIG-21. But I can see it on FC3's F-15. Is there any advanced setting need to be check to activate those scratches? Thanks I like those scratches, they can be seen only in DCS

sorry, my DCS version right now is 1.2.16.... the latest i believe, because i update my DCS before I try to run that miz file

A kind friend gave me his .miz file, trying to help me understand a mission editor function. After I copy and paste the miz file to my mission file folder, start DCS and try to open the .miz file in my DCS mission editor, DCS shows me" this file is newer than editor......" I update my DCS , and try again, it is still the same: file is newer than this editor" my DCS version 1.2.16.43180 What is the reason?

This also my strongest wish about DCS, I eager it so much!!! 1 authentic data make fly real, (real control procedure of Mig-21 A-10c and UH-1 makes DCS the top of combat simulator.) 2 many different missions with different aircrafts, possibility. 3 easy to make scenery, trees and trees and more trees, almost no building need to be fit with satillite scenery. 3 dogfight attract more flight sim beginner join DCS and more

thanks you! and appreciate all who respond to this thread those upper two links did illumiate me, This is what I found, first I did set all switchs on communication panel to up, then I use the default button setting for cyclic stick ...PTT button instead of default "\" it works! ignore the frequency setting and others, at least in single player default mission. Just use default cyclic stick's PTT button setting or self-set and use. It is resolved.

On the ground, I can press "\" and open chat list to communicate, but once in the air, I press "\" without any reaction, no communication list, so I can not talk with wingmen and others . I did follow offical tutorial video clip to start the cold and dark. My question is how so? Does any button or switch connect to this game function? did I miss any step? Appreciate!

same problem . even cold&dark there are always three spot light illuminate ground. don't know how to turn them off? fly like a target

ha Thanks alot Maybe, I know what happen, it is the "group" I have to set several same things as a group, and then, change them one by one. I'll try Thanks And thanks to all responds

in my self-edit mission, I put USA SAM sites, Such as Patriot and Hawk, at positions very close to front line, and add every SAM's component named patriot or Hawk at one small area. And set them close to each other. But when mission start, many times, not all times, SAM won't launch to enemy aircraft How to let them fire? all those Russian SAM I set work perfectly. I use the same way to set US SAM, but, most times, they won't fire single missle in whole mission.

don't know the reason, but after I press and hold button to release GBU38 . In weapon manage page it shows "Release Aborted" and GBU38 is till on its station. I want to know How to reset the GBU to let it RDY to be released? and Why bomb release is aborted? Thanks

One interesting thing happen, in other self made missions, CBU105 is ok in combat. all those situations happen only in one self made mission. I am curious, what makes the CBU 105 fail, why only in that mission? I still do not realize any difference I did in this mission from the others

Do you mean, the Mark (made by TMS short right press) can not lead JDAMS? Why the INVALID FUZING appear just after I choose CCRP and choose CBU? If Can not lead CBU is correct, should there appear "invalid fuzing"? and the sign will appear, everytime, when i chose CBU bomb? and, there even appear CCRP INVALID somemoment. thanks alot for your respond

N/T OBT is not highlighted and I found "CCRP invalid" on HUD I did finish NAV system Inital procedure :doh:

After I choose CBU105 and set all arm on. It shows invalid fuzing, only for CBU. I didn't set SPI, but I set mark on my target with TGP. After mark is set, HUD looks normal, "invalid fuzing" sign dispear from HUD, but when CCRP reach attack range, between those two small triangles, I press and hold release button, the CBU won't go away from its station. Did I miss any step? why only CUB fuse is invalid? while others are all fine. what means invalid?? Thanks

Thank you so much for all your responds!!! I am so glad I can fly a heli simulator which is so close to real heli. after I saw a video clip police' heli fly through city high rise buildings, I am afraid i missed a good heli sim. Now, I feel much better Thanks again to all

In short, I saw a game named "take on helicopter". Before i buy it, I want to know, wether take on helicopter's dynamics and control can match DCS UH-1 and Mi-8 level or not? I like fly heli in many fsx and others for many years, but only after DCS Huey, I found I totally don't know how to fly a Heli. is that "take on helicopter" real like DCS UH-1?? Thanks

Thanks for respond, I'll turn back and check.

DO you mean we already have it in DCSW? I didn't realized it, if yes, I'll keep one eye on it now. Or, maybe you mean we will see it in the coming DCSW II "edge"?

Thanks, glad to know this:D

Years before, there is a Vietnam War fly simulation game, "Wings over Vietnam" ?,maybe. When bombs explode on the ground, we can see the "explosion waves ring" which is caused by high pressure air, maybe, expand from center to explosive radius. I saw those rings in many, almost every, war documentries. I can visually feel the strong power of the impact. The powerful feeling come from the explosion wave ring is far more stronger than that from the explosive smoke only. I saw that ring only in that game, and that make me keep flying the game for years. Hope we can have the ring in DCS Thanks

to tilt down mig-15's head, I moved elevator trim handle. But I feel there is no reaction on elevator, but roll to left (or right? I forget) push elevator trim handle forward, mig15 was trimmed roll to right pull handle backward, mig15 was trimmed roll to left. but the aileron trim switch works fine as design. I don't know why

after hours dogfight, I'd like to jump in cockpit work as RIO for someone, Hahahaha. Applaud for F-14 multirole

Even a cold&dark UH-1 can slide slowly from DCS carrier deck to deep sea. I'm really disappointed on DCS ship deck, not only carrier but also destroyer flight deck.
