Smax I've been trying to solve this loud A/B sounds vs low RWR sounds for a while now, and it's not confined to the F15, it's pretty much all the aircraft in my experience, I reached out to Growling Sidewinder and Longshot asking what there sound settings were cos in their videos they have low A/B level and loud and clear RWR / warning sounds. Unfortunately I've received little to no advice ... very frustrating and I'm getting a little tired of having my arse shot off cos I couldn't hear any warnings over the engine sounds.

I have the same graphic anomalies throughout the Syria map

Yep, I had set up the tanks to drop .... I didn't realize having the jettison switch active would prevent the launch of the sidewinders .... thanks for the heads-up .... cheers SorelRo

I'll have a look at the jetison mode ... I might have set up the tanks to drop, though not the 'Winders, at least I don't think I had .. I'll refly the mission and get back to you cheers SorelRo, I appreciate you're feedback

I'm getting a little frustrated to say the least, flown the intercept mission 10+ times, find the bombers, line up ... tone , Fox2 ! ... nothing, the SW doesn't fire ... and yep, everything is set up properly, even reflew the F5 training missions, and the missiles fire as per advertised in the training missions, just not in the BSR campaign ... a recent bug ?

Aha. I’ve discovered the problem with the mod. There are actually 2 versions of Nightstorms mod in the single player download. And I managed to install both. As per the instructions to “ install over the Grinnelli mod” I deleted everything re-download Grinnelli and Nightstorm mods Grinnelli installed first then over wrote it with the newest Nightstorm mod and wha la! Works as advertised radar good rwr good New missiles good. Gonna fly it and knock down the RedFor happy days. Thanks Grinnelli. Thanks Nightstorm

I managed to get the AIM 260 to appear in the F22A loadout etc , but now I have no working radar or RWR showing up so I can't use the radar at all let alone lock anything / dodge incoming . The screens are the new ones cos they're not the Grinnelli F15 radar/RWR screens but the new ones don't seem to be functioning .. no idea why Clearly the new screens are a huge step up , just got to get them working

I concur with Cheeky. Could you explain how to install your mod Nightstorm ? I’ve tried to install it with OVGME and also manually installing into the Saved Games folder but I don’t seem to have had any success Like you Nightstorm I love the F22 and I’m really looking forward to seeing how you’ve managed to improve Grinelli’s already impressive mod. cheers Phoenix

Thanks for the advice mate. I've ended up binding the throttle \ thrust to the CM3's flaps control ... it's a little weird but it works ... just no GS differential thrust from separate R/L throttle controls

cubanace your Su 57 is a favourite of mine but Build 04 seems to have a problem recognizing my Virpil CM 3 throttles and zoom axis. Previous Builds had no problems at all. Not sure why. The engines spool up using the keyboard +and- keys but this isn't ideal given my full Virpil HOTAS setup. Got any idea what I could have done differently to cause this problem? I've deleted / re-downloaded the mod, opened the Virpil software ... everything seems to work on all my other modules/aircraft. I'm very keen to fly Build 04 given all that you have done to improve things. Keep up your fantastic work! Cheers, Phoenix456

Yep, I have all of the required modules. I used 7-Zip to open the file and placed the F35 folder correctly into the DCS Saved Games folder ... I have several other VSN aircraft that work just fine .. only the F 35 doesn't work as a flyable aircraft .. set to client or player ... still no joy ... as we Aussies say ...... BUGGER ! I value your thoughts PJ cheers mate

Hi guys, there's probably an answer to my question posted somewhere back in the 46 previous pages, but. I can't for the life of me get the F 35 ( all variants) flyable. AI, no problem. Me in the cockpit, nope. I'm super keen to replicate some of Cap's ( GR ) great misssions/scenarios that involve the F 35 and I just can't get the Lightning flyable. I'm not the greatest IT expert, though I have tried the re-install etc route to no avail. Anyone know what the problem is ? And, the solution ? GR guys are happily flying around in their F35's and I'd love to be able to join in. Cheers everyone. DCS is just the best. Phoenix456

I had exactly the same problem after the latest open beta update ... DCS refusing to start deleted the VSN F 105 .... DCS now starts fine ... such a great community this one THANKYOU one and all
