Hello all, Those of us that have been following the development of this wonderful simulator from the beginning will remember that once there was a company called VEO? (Sorry, can’t quite remember), and they developed a Hawk for DCS. It was an excellent model though it needed a bit of update work done and after a while it fell behind. Unfortunately the company pulled out of the project, I believe it was financial issues, and the way things were then DCS could not take the project over. I would like to make a plea for someone to develop this aircraft again. It is, for we Brits, something of an iconic machine, being that aircraft that has now trained several generations of RAF and FAA fighter pilots, and has been the aircraft of choice for the superb Red arrows, some of whom actually had a go of the virtual aeroplane and enjoyed it a great deal, commenting on its accuracy, and even complementing the sim pilots because in many ways it’s harder to fly the sim perfectly than it is to fly the real thing - I’m sure that is not the case but it was nice of them to say - if we make a bad mistake all we have to do is cuss and go into the living room to grumpily watch some rubbish TV; if they make a mistake people can die. Anyway, I again would like to make the plea that someone take a hold of a project to build the Hawk for DCS. The Just Flight model, just updated for FS2024, is beautiful but of course like all the FS military aircraft it is very limited in its ability to render weapons. So, please, please, please, let’s hear it for the Hawk all you clever people that know how to build these things, and produce a new one for we addicts.. Thanks all. Neil.

Feeling a bit foolish now. Thanks for that, you were right

Hi Thanks for replying. What do you mean by 'take them out of the start position;? Its certainly in cold and dark that I get the problem. If I am already flying, say in instant action, then they work because already out of C and D. But when in C and D, well nothing seems to shift them anymore.

Hello I have seen that others have had trouble with power lever glitches, but this is a little different. I cannot move my power levers at all. I had them bound to axes levers on the Honeycomb bravo and that used to work. I have switched to other axes and buttons but nothing works. Thanks. Neil

Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS not showing through new hub.
Neil Gardner replied to Neil Gardner's topic in Thrustmaster
Ah yes, will check that. But what I meant was that they are not showing up in DCS. I have to put it direct into the computer before it shows up. -
Hi i wondered if anyone might be able to tell me why Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS is not showing when put through new USB 3.0 Hub Powered RSHTECH 24W 7 Port USB 3 Data Hub Aluminum Portable USB Splitter with Individual On/Off Switches and 12V/2A Power Adapter? Bit if a mouthful but I thought I’d put the full title. Thanks. Neil.

Thank you for responding

I am a big fan of the JF17, it burst on to the scene out of the blue and from the outset it had loads of features. DEKA are to be congratulated on all of that. I do have a bit of gripe though. Are you intending to improve the cockpit textures? - most of which are fine but, for example, the throttle mount seems a bit sub par and incomplete and textures on various aspects, for instance back left if you are seated in the cockpit. thanks NeilG

There have been some nice pics on Twitter recently, together with the Falklands scenery and a beautiful looking Lightening (tge one the RAF were flying in the 70’s and 80’s), so who knows.

I wonder if I could ask how much of the work that goes into making a model like this for another platform can be transferred over when undertaking a project like this. I have another IFE MB339 and there will be much greater functionality in this model than the one I've already got. I wonder if that functionality will work its way back as well.

Progress pictures on the Eurofighter Typhoon
Neil Gardner replied to DashTrueGrit's topic in DCS: Eurofighter
I cant rightly remember where I saw it, and I could be completely wrong, but can someone confirm that TG are hoping to release in Q2 next year? -

[CORRECT AS IS]HUD is too washed out
Neil Gardner replied to Raven434th's topic in Bugs and Problems
HUD difficult to see. I do find the HUD difficult to see. Is there any way of altering the depth of shade or even the colour altogether like with the VRS F18? Any advice appreciated. Thanks Neil. -
When I went on the site it seemed like everything was out of stock.
