Oh man, that is one sweet looking cockpit. Totally awesome. Good job.

You are right. It worked. Thank you very much.

Nobody? Maybe someone from ED can look into this?

Hi all, I know it worked in 1.2.0 and it definitely did work in 1.2.1 but it seems it doesn't work in 1.2.2 anymore. To be able to remove the dust cloud effect you had to go to MissionEditor\data\scripts\options.lua to alter effects = 3 to effects = 2. I've tried it in 1.2.2 but it has no effect anymore. Is there another way to remove the dust cloud? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for this tip mate. But I think you were refering to high.scn3 aren't you?

It doesn't realy matter where you place the mission folder. You can create a folder within the DCS main folder if you want. You can also save your mission files somewhere else. Ingame you will always have the option to navigate to the folder where you placed the mission files in.

It seems the P-51 internal missing pilot textures are fixed in the 1.2.1 release. I've got mine back. Thank you ED, whatever you did :)

Ah, I have set up my aircraft as Client so it is easier to switch without exiting the whole single player mission. I will change them to Player and see what happens then. Thank you for the replies.

Hi all, I noticed the logbook isn't being updated. I have flown the A-10, Ka-50, P-51 and Su-25T, but the flight times aren't recorded. The whole logbook stays at 0. Is this a common problem? I use DCS World 1.2.0 by the way. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply, AlaskanGrizzly. YOU NAILED IT!!! It is working now. Both US and Russia are BLUE. Comms for both. Rearming and refueling work like a charm. A big thanx to you (and to all who took the time to help me.)

I am completely lost here! I have made a new mission file with both Russian and US forces and support vehicles at a neutral military airbase. The US communication is working now, but the Russian doesn't. Even when the airbase is Red, US comms are up but the Russian side still doesn't work. I know it is possible how I want it because I did it before. Don't know how. Just Flight 2(A-10C, Ka-50, P-51D, Su-25T).miz

Hi all, Thanks for the replies guys. I have made some changes to the mission file but it still doesn't work. The support vehicles are all non-static now. The airbase either being neutral or blue or red, still no reply. Can it have anything to do with the used airfield being a civilian one instead of military? Attached is the adjusted mission file. Just Flight (A-10C, Ka-50, P-51D).miz

... because I am not able to refuel and rearm. I don't know what I have done wrong. I use the airfield frequency but even with the cockpit door open I get no response from ATC or ground crew. The necessary vehicles for ground support are placed on the airfield. I hope someone can please give some advise about altering the mission parameters. Thanx. Just Flight (A-10C, Ka-50, P-51D).miz

I am also missing the pilot textures within the P-51 cockpit. From an external view the textures are present.

After installing the BS2 and A-10C modules for DCS World, is it neccessary to uninstall the stand alone version of BS2 and A-10C or are these needed in order to make the merge work? I was never asked for the serial numbers of the stand alone versions while installing them into DCS World. Did something went wrong here? I am able to use them in World.

Maybe you should ignore the autorun and use setup.exe directly, possibly with administrator rights. I have the download version of Black Shark so there is no autorun feature, just setup.exe and that works like a charm.

Hi all, It seems "Shadows = 0" in the options.lua file equals "Low" in the ingame menu. Is there a way to completely turn of shadowing? Just want to try how it runs this way. It did Black Shark a lot of good on my rig.

IMO the one helicopter that definitely deserves a DCS treatment is the UH-1. And let's be honest; wouldn't it be great to fire up that trustworthy bird after going through the necessary steps in the way only DCS can provide us. With a true to life 6DOV cockpit, with all the bells and whistles and switches and knobs. And maybe an AI co-pilot that would kick in the Ride Of The Valkyries tape :smilewink: I would get it, no matter what the price would be.

Thank you very much Darkfire. I will work with it end let you know how it goes.

Thanks, looking forward to it.

Thanks for the reply DarkFire. Is it possible to make the helicopter take off again at the same point where it landed? The idea is to let helicopter randomly take off and land around the airbase.

Hi all, I want to spice up my airbase a little bit by letting some AI helicopters take off, fly around a bit and than land. Something like an airshow. With "Add helicopter group" I place a helicopter somewhere on the airbase, giving it the "Takeoff From Ramp" order. The helicopter starts up really nice, flies around and lands, totally shutting down and opening its doors. But that is it. It doesn't take off anymore. How can I make it do the same action over and over again? I fiddled with the Begin Loop and End Loop commands, but than the helicopter starts mid air. Hope someone can help me out. Thanks.

For Black Shark V1.02: Joystick settings\button assignments: [bS main folder]\BlackShark\[yourfile].lua Options: [bS main folder]\BlackShark\data\scripts\options.lua Graphics: [bS main folder]\Config\graphics_bs.cfg Don't know about the increased civil traffic.

You can edit the campaign missions in the mission editor, but that means you have to edit them all seperately. I do not think it is possible to edit one specific file to have all missions use cold starts.
