Mine was the first batch 0400. There is also 4 wires that are glued on as well. Really made it hard. I've already purchased the new base but ill have a look at the shipping costs if you want a crack, seems a waste not to fix it :)

The problem that happened to me was the ribbon cable was pulled all the back through the base. Make sure you push it up before pulling up the ball socket. Make sure the holes on the sensor allow for the most slack on the ribbon cable. Then as you put it together again pull it down. Its annoying they used glue on ribbon cable, if you could unplug that it would be 10x easier. Talked to TM, they will send a replacement base for 150 EUR to Australia including shipping.

Turns out it was the DIM connector pushed down in the socket. While rescuing it I broke a few wires... Talking to thrustmaster about it

Yep. I did all the uninstalling steps as well. Like rerunning the installer to uninstall. Hmm... guess i have to contact TM, I'm well out of warranty Repeated those steps on a laptop, same result.

I tried those steps and it appears under 'bulk joystick' in device manager (but the throttle doesn't appear). But only the throttle appears in game controllers. I tried firmware update (both joystick and throttle appear in the list) but it gives the message "ERROR: time-out device should had arrived in HID (Code:0x34100002)

Now its dead :( new hardware found comes up in windows but thats it. Nothing in DCS, Windows, Game controllers. I have no idea what happened. Must have bumped one of the circuit boards?

I attempted this today and broke the earth wire coming out of the top of the ball socket. There is about 2 cm of the wire remaining at the top. :/ Everything still works, is this just a safety issue? Can i just unplug when not in use?

I am running SoftTH with a two screen one over one under setup. If the start bar is on the second screen it will stay on the screen. So it might be related to that.

I try that and it opens task manager but I can never change focus onto the task manager window but alt-tabbing

I can't do that anymore as DCS world doesn't alt-tab out like BS or a10c used to. It wont switch out of the game. If fact, if it locks up the only way I can close the program is to start a log off process.

Ah! Ctrl-Alt-Delete before debrief screen. I remember now... its been awhile

No I'm sure it had that feature. It was good as when something goes wrong you can replay the mission and have it not go into your stats. If your wingman flies into you or something else (such as making a dumb decision).

I've been flying the Su-25T and there is no re-fly option in the single player campaign. Anyone else get this?

The thing that is missing out are ambient sounds, like when you have the camera on a vehicle and nothing is happening there aren't any wild life sounds or wind effects (or rain). Cicadas in summer? Not a game changer I admit but something that would be easy to implement. Waves breaking on the beach is a another example, you could tie it to the wind speed or something. Just something to add to the list... without vehicles doing stuff it sounds like a sound proof booth sometimes.

Fixed it! Wooohooo! iTunes was suffering the same problem. Using ATI Tray tools I disabled "Force Mip-map filter" and boom! Fixed. What a pain in the ass. Can someone explain what that option actually does? I have no idea...

I mean 1680x1050 :P always get that mixed up

This might be an unuseful observation.... The HUD loading screen appears squashed from left to right when entering a game, but it looks fine when its loading the menus. AA filter is set to Box. My resolution is same as desktop 1650x1080, tried fullscreen and windowed. Same problem with different windowed resolutions, the hud loading image looks squashed.

Already done... Settings in CCC are as followed: AA - 8x Anisotropic filtering - Use Application Settings Tessellation - Use Application Settings Catalyst AI - Quality Vertical Refresh - Off AA Mode - Super-sample AA Triple Buffering - Unticked

Hey guys, After installing FC2 ive been getting this weird graphics issue, pixels slightly out of place in 2D menus, and the picture (especially the HUD and corners of the cockpit) looking not quite right. In the FC2 launcher everything looks fine, but from when the simulator starts up (including the loading screen) it happens again. Strangely firefox is getting the same issue, but chrome and other programs look fine. If I wait awhile it will fix itself, but the sim is always the same. Now it affects blackshark and a10c :helpsmilie: soooo annoying... I have a HIS ATI 5870. Running 11.6 Catalyst. Windows 7 x64 I remember getting this issue 6 months ago, but it fixed itself and i never figured out why. It always happens if I install FC2 :/ I've turned all the ATI settings to max, and that helps ever so slightly but its still really distracting. Its hard to get a screenshot in game to demonstrate, but the firefox screenshot shows how its glitching. I've played around with compatibility options, running as admin... I've reinstalled different catalyst versions, run the windows 7 assessment again (the graphics card points went down 1.0), reinstalled directx july 2010 redist, blagh, don't know what else to do... anyone had a similar issue?

Weird, I had all of this working but all of a sudden it wasn't appearing in Options > Monitors, so I created a new Notepad++ file from scratch and after alot of time wasting it appeared again. But now the MFCD's arnt appearing on my second monitor and my trackIR wont centre anymore! 1680x1818 resolution in Options, my monitor config file: _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('2monitor'); Description = 'Two monitor configuration'; Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 1680; height = 1050; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 1.6; } } LEFT_MFCD = { x = 400; y = 1200; width = 350; height = 350; } RIGHT_MFCD = { x = 900; y = 1200; width = 350; height = 350; } UIMainView = Viewports.Center 5870, windows 7 64 bit one 1680x1050, one 1360x768 (below) Anyone got any ideas? The second monitor goes black when im in simulator.exe

check out dcswiki.com

Yeah, even the KA50 had a similar feature. I guess the A10C has the luxury of having a million SEAD planes looking after it :P Ill have a look at what data is on there, I should be able to make some pretty pictures.

ROFL

Yeah! That would be great

If the information comes from information compiled from a DCS product, can I use it at dcswiki.com?
