  1. Throttle is using my Thrustmaster Warthog combo left split-lever to control. I have noticed throttle lever "all the way up" on my Warthog puts the in-game lever showing to be at the fly position to start with leaving a small amount of lockout remaining. Lock out dosen't matter because the warthog is already at it's furthest up throw limits In game control options- axis control-throttle fine tune shows throttle at total limits when used so it isn't missing any throw there.
  2. I usually have a flight of 4 Apache's that I follow at 40-60 knots altitude 300-400 feet just to keep up with. More often than not, I follow for a small bit and start falling out of the sky. I increase collective or increase power (a little not much) but keep falling till I crash. What am I doing wrong?
  3. Can't get Massun92's asset pack into DCS, I downloaded it into computer (as shown and picture too) ...C:\Users\"your user name"\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\Tech\...shows File downloaded in right place. In the DCS game (second picture) shows in in module and switch is ON BUT dosen't show any further?? I rebooted the game...still no Asset! Please advise!

  5. Is it advisable in a helo to lower either power and or collective a little bit and turn tight circles to loose altitude, like in an airplane does? This way you can stay in the same relative area vs straight line at 120 speed. I know usually you would about raise nose and hold as you loose speed but you also gain tons of altitude the very thing you are wanting to loose. Please advise
  6. Is there a way using power and collective?
  7. Tried nose down to altitude needed then nose up watch ground till I slow down then level out finally lower collective a little. Is this the proper way?
  8. Pulled up controls indicator mine shows dead on lined up centered. I add a little collective and the ship rotates right (normal for a rotor at takeoff)... I adjust the rudder a little left which should take care of the right rotation BUT dosent! and it is still rotating right. I go all the way left with the rudder and it still is rotatinjg right.... UNTILL i reach 100 feet or more then it acts correctly like it should. Problem is just in the 0-100' in altitude area. I have my foot all the way left to try to correct it just continues left at low altitudes.
  9. No left rudder on takeoff...pedals pushed left FULL! ... (0-100' no left rudder) (100'+ rudder is ok on both left and right). Warthog Combo with 3.5" extension. Rudder axis config: Dead zone 5 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 0 Collective axis config: Dead zone 3 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 0 (invert) y axis config: Dead zone 5 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 15 x axis config: Dead zone 5 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 15 Please advise
  10. By the way... I completely uninstalled DCS re-installed it and AH-64d and Syria totally started from scratch! Wondering if I am crazy. If so... please excuse i'm 71 so there you go!!
  11. When Apache first came out we had Forced trim, Attitude trim and Altitude trim. A cry out was lodged for a Forced trim reset. Finally, we got it in a weekly download from Eagle Dynamics! Now we can force trim to correct the flight, then reset the controls to recenter the joystick and pedals. My Force trim reset has disappeared! When I hit Forced trimmer down nothing happens. I have changed the bind to another button on the joystick and still nothing happens. Anyone else find this happening too? I have opened a ticket and it's been several days on this but heard nothing as to Yes... it is actually missing. Just to satisfy me is there a Forced trim reset?? Please advise. Thank you.
  12. This is what I have gathered so far from P-51 videos... Formula so far in climbing from ground to 20,000 feet and making it easy on the engine. RPM... 2600-2700 THROTTLE ...30-40-50Hg ?..... RATE OF CLIMB VSI NEEDED "ZIG-ZAG FLY... HORIZONTALLY" (DON'T FLY STRAIGHT) Help me fill out the rate of climb if you know. Thanks!!
  13. Dots1 ...Got a question on P-51D. Why in a turn executed maybe a little too tight does the bird go nuts and corkscrew into the ground? If flown gentle it will fly nice, but no fight is gentle!!
  14. Flown Eagle Dynamics for 20 years started with LOMAC. A long time ago I changed the World soundtrack to a newer version of the same music, a more up-beat one. Everyone else is changing the individual module soundtracks keeping the original opening soundtrack as is. Need to figure out what I am doing wrong. Maybe I should put in a tech request to Eagle Dynamics. I know MainMenuIn.ogg and MainMenuLoop.ogg are the two soundtack names but where to put them in C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\<Aircraft Name>\Sounds\EditorMusic

  16. Change game opening Soundtrack...got my music...saves as .ogg Renamed 2 identical files MainMenuIn.ogg and MainMenuLoop.ogg Where do I place them??.... I want it for the time DCS Open Beta loads BEFORE I choose a specific plane or helo!! Every other forum has people placing them in.... C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\<Aircraft Name>\Sounds\EditorMusic. But it is not working. Please advise!
  17. Just hit me.... All I had to do was start DCS "as administrator" and BAM!! Full screen on a 3440x1440 34 " monitor. All is good!! Thanks guys
  18. I have a MSI GTX 1080 TI 11Gb card. Been playing on it in DCS for over a year on 3440x1440. Upgraded CPU from AMD 3600 to AMD 5600. Now when I enter DCS it gives me 2560x1440.... so In options I change it to 3440x1440 and click X upper right corner. Screen dosen't change so back into options but resolution still says 2560x1440 again. Over and overI have tried to change resolution...am I missing something? No OK button on bottom of options seen just X upper corner?? Maybe my 1080TI card is bad? Please advise thank you!
  19. Here is what I have
  20. Actually it is more like 1 zig in a zig zag moving along a straight line in the distance , back and fourth slowly. It is sort of annoying!
  21. My Rig...Geforce 1080Ti 11GB, AMD Rysen 5 3500, 32GB Ram, 3440x1440 monitor. At a distance I see straight lines moving or pulsing along the line. Any thoughts?
  22. I have a Thrustmaster Warthog Combo. Do I save profiles for every aircraft and helicopter I have? I have noticed when I save it saves a joystick or throttle. Do I highlight the (let's say) joystick column then save and do the same for the throttle column then save too?
  23. I have a Thrustmaster Warthog combo... Per each DCS aircraft and helicopter module, do you have to upload specific profiles for that bird? Where is a good place to store them in, C drive or external hard drive?
  24. Thank you I will try a multiplayer situation.
  25. Fudge Sickle! Ya I guess the AI is weak and can't lead unless scripted. Maybe.... a partially scripted mission just to get your team to target area with enemy firing on the flight upon arrival which does sounds doable. Maybe script the lead to initiate just 1 shot with the rest left up to you and then all exit homeward. No loitering around to make it simple.
