  1. once you flip from Grnd /CV to Nav it comes up. There are instances in the caucuses map when Im on or near the boat and zoomed in at 10 NM part of the map is blacked out.
  2. sorry but that makes zero sense to me. 1111 to 1688 is much more clear of an answer
  3. yes precisely,
  4. chuck's guide has a nice diagram of what each button does and its location. I just realized OP is from last century
  5. Thrustmaster TWCS throttle is modeled almost exactly like the f/a-18 throttle and is only $60. I didnt like the feel of it at first but after some tweaking and breaking in I quite like it. Also has an awesome spring loaded paddle with a center detent that is absolutely perfect for antenna elevation control and the TGP zoom function. You aren't gonna find that on any other throttle out there right now afaik. The actual "dial" to control the antenna is on the throttle but its not an axis and control is not proportional. It either full speed up or down, you cant move it slowly for more precision. So I prefer the paddle. There are also like an extra 8 buttons on the throttle you can use for weapons select or whatever you cant fit onto your stick. It really is a decent inexpensive throttle well suited for the F-18 module. You can pick one up separately later down the road or in a bundle with the stick which also is pretty decent for the money IMO.
  6. hello a question about the laser codes as Im going to play with lgb's for the 1st time ever tonight. Can you enter any 4 digit code or are there specific codes I need to be using?
  7. Yes coordinates stayed in the computer, step option did not and the stations were still selected. Not a big deal just thought id mention it in case anyone noticed and was confused.
  8. thanks for your reply I understand about mission start trigger now. Second issue i think i had a string of really good luck. I just have the random value set between 1 and 5 and landing on 3 activates. I had six flights in a row where he spawned each time. It looks like its working alright now. I should have bought a lottery ticket i think.
  9. Not being able to take off might be T.O. trim isn't set or you could be overweight. What kind of airspeed can you achieve once airborne? Does IFEI show engines running at 100%? Auto pilot could be you are in game mode. It also needs 0 stick input to engage I think so check you aren't pulling on the stick or something and maybe check your dead zones. Third issue sounds like the flaps are fully extended to me I dunno. Just some thoughts maybe they might help.
  10. this is accurate
  11. I tested and can confirm it works just as it used to however .... Programming coordinates on the ground using ground power is the same. Shut off Groundpower and started the aircraft as per usual start up procedure. Got up in the air, fenced in and went to stores page and step function was no longer visible. Had to go back, deselect each station, then re select each station and step function returned. It didn't carry over from when I was using it to program each bomb I was carrying. Something to look out for and not sure if it's intended or not. Aside from that everything appeared normal to me.
  12. defo was there for jdam last evening now is missing.
  13. so after testing this unit spawns every time regardless of what i set the probability to. Also tried just having him activate after 5 seconds from mission start and he never activates. This editor is the most frustrating thing I've ever tried to use nothing works as advertised it seems. Can anyone help? 1. test.miz this is me just trying to get a unit to spawn after the mission begins....nothing ever happens. I dont get it? 2.Training.miz This is my retarded attempt at a mission. I want the mig to have a random chance of spawning when you attack a group of apv. He spawns every time regardless of what the flag value is set at. Makes zero sense to me. test.miz Training.miz
  14. hey so looking around on here I'm not finding anything. But The other day I landed on mom and INS got knocked out of align. I tried setting knob to CV on the deck but mfcd just flashed 00:00 and never aligned anything. The standby attitude reference gauge was all wacko too. Did I do something wrong? Why was I unable to realign my INS? I dont have a track file but if I can get it to happen again I can surely provide one.
  15. i played twice it was lame af. Actively involving other humans in my hobbies is a sure fire way for me to lose interest in them.
  16. Thanks for this working as desired now. Took me a few days to find the time but thanks again.
  17. thanks boys will take all this and see what i can do with it and report back maybe tomorrow.
  18. I'm pretty positive this is user error but I can't figure it out. I'm sorry if I'm not explaining this clearly I'm not the best at that. Basically I have a group of ground targets. I want to have a 50/50 probability that attacking these targets could launch an enemy plane in response. First I have a Mig-29 set to LATE ACTIVATION on an airfield. I have a trigger that says "if group alive less than 100 then throw a flag with a random value between 0-10." Then a second trigger "if flag is less than 6 activate group Mig-29." But as soon as the mission starts he starts his engine and starts flying. If I remove that Task Push "activate group" he never starts up. So what am I missing because in my head this should be working. Thanks if you can help me.
  19. Try landing on it when you really got her full rudder. My plane did a 180 when i caught the wire, it was awesome.
  20. This is the exact tutorial I followed about 2 months ago to build the mission. For whatever reason it has stopped working. I got a tanker flying an east/west track and his TACAN is on 1X and his still works fine and all the air strips still work fine. I'm gonna re watch that video but something is not right here. I'll play with it some more but....I don't get what could have happened.
  21. Hi, So I have this simple little mission in the editor i use to practice new weapons or just generally screw around. I had the Stennis TACAN set to 74X and things worked fine. Now the TACAN doesn't work only in that mission. I checked everything and nothing seemed incorrect in the editor. I even deleted the triggered actions or whatever and re programmed them to turn everything on 10 seconds after the mission starts. I'm getting nothing, can anyone help me figure what I'm missing here please?
  22. Thanks for the reports from everyone who attended. Wanted to go but all i wanted to see was what Thrustmaster had to show. Figured it would be easiest to just do it this way.
  23. how long do these games usually last? Assuming you survive your assignment. Thanks would like to play sometime but not sure i have the time :(
  24. The f-18 has that control on a wheel so you can move a little or move a lot. Is yours set up on an axis? Then tune the curve out of the axis and you can move it really slow after you make those changes.
  25. same, good luck. I've spent months trying everything, I have no idea whats causing it. I don't play the game so much anymore because of it.
