I’ll chime in that I had strange behavior as well when choosing a slot for the first time but then it’s fine after that. But something to check which I was able to track down: make sure you don’t have both a script running that adds radio menu items AND also adding radio menu items via the mission editor. I found when I removed the mission editor created radio menu items and only had my script added items, it behaved properly with the first time I occupied a slot at the beginning of a mission. Perhaps a bug? I dunno.
Never thought of that... Good catch!

Unlike aircraft, ship groups can consist of different classes of vessels. So, drop your carrier on the map, get it all set up and then increase the group size (like you were creating a 4 unit flight of aircraft). You will be able to change the vessel type of each unit without changing the rest of the group.
Once you get them arranged the way you want on the map, they will stay in the same position relative to the lead unit (the carrier)

If you are referring to the load profile button in the DCS input editor, you have to select which profile you wish to load before the load profile button will become active.
So, to load the throttle profile, click anywhere in the throttle profile column, selecting one of the cells. The load profile button will become active and light up. Then you simply click it and select the proper profile. Rinse and repeat for the stick, rudder or any other controllers.

I think there is a bug in DCS with the radio menu system... If you join spectators first, and then jump into an aircraft, all should be well.
-
That was it! I didn't bother to backup that profile. Thanks!

Did you try clicking on the DCS window when you removed your headset. I had a similar issue where the desktop DCS window would sometimes lose focus because a window popped up, or I clicked when the mouse was at the very edge of the DCS window. Now I make sure that all windows are minimized except for DCS and that resolved 99% of the issue.

In the past week, there have been several updates to DCS (OB). Add to that a new motherboard/CPU/Mem install AND moving to Windows 10 (begrudgingly, I might add)
Anyway, with all the changes to my situation, at some point I've lost the ability to zoom to see info on various panels and instruments. I had it mapped to a throttle button, and when importing/testing my control profiles into the new DCS install, I discovered that zoom no longer works on any aircraft.
With all the above changes to my system, I don't know if it's a windows 10 issue, a DCS issue, a VR issue, or what.
And, for the life of me, I don't even remember what the function was called that I mapped the button to. But, when I open the controls page and press the mapped button, I don't jump to the proper control...
Where do I find the zoom feature for VR? :book:
-
Just have to open the mission in ME and make the change... (and probably add a few more client aircraft, so your friends don't have to stand on the tarmac and watch :pilotfly: )

I turn his O2 off as part of my A2A refueling and Landing checks
LMAO!
-
I had to abort my air refuel attempts because of laughing, when i heard him saying „may the force be with you“ after i missed the basket again :megalol:
If you hear him say "It puts the lotion in the basket"... EJECT! EJECT! EJECT!
-
Not surprising. It's pretty obvious when you put your mask on with the O2 switch off. He knows that you will know within two seconds and doesn't want to insult you by asking.
LOL... But I don't actually wear a mask at home... At least not until everyone else in the house is asleep. :pilotfly:
-
Court Martialed ? Guess that explains why he doesn't tell you to check that your O2 is on before take-off...
-
I believe that airborn TACANs need to be set to 'Y' as well as 'A-A'. So, in your case, '64Y'.
-
Two assisted startups and not once did Jester advise me to check that my oxygen was on...
It may have been the delirium due to the lack of O2, but I swear I heard him laughing just before I blacked out at 20K ft...
-
Good deal... I didn't have a chance to test it myself.
Guess we all learned something today.
-
Just a quick question... When a unit is sitting on the deck of the carrier, would it's speed be detected as 0 or as the speed of the carrier? Or, would it's speed be relative to the moving zone?
-
By spectator, do you mean someone who hasn't purchased the module? Or, someone with the F-14 module who just wants to sit in the back seat as an observer and watch what controls Jester manipulates to gain experience in the back seat?
I think the idea of an observer without the module would be a great selling tool for the F-14...
But, it would need to carry the same restrictions on who sits back there as selecting a RIO. i.e. someone would have to request and be accepted by the pilot.

Once you're lined up on the catapult with the nosewheel just behind the shuttle, you need to compress the nosewheel strut. There is a switch just to the left of the Landing Gear lever - labeled "STRUT". flip it down and hold it until the nose of the plane drops. (you can see it dropping by looking out the canopy while holding the switch down)...
Once the strut is compressed, press "U" to hook up to the catapult, you're ready to go. (Don't forget to salute before you launch)

I have a Logitech version of the X56. All my assignments/binds are done ingame and not with the Logitech software.
A friend just bought the same controller, so I copied my input device folders (...Saved Games\dcs\Config\input\[aircraft name}) and sent them to him. But they don't seem to work on his rig.
Is it possible to copy those files to another machine, or are they married to the controller that that they were created on?
-
Go to Axis Tune for each throttle and set the "Saturation X" to 50% and check the "Slider" box.
-
One advantage to using the ingame bindings is that you don't have to exit the game, select a new profile and start the game back up to switch aircraft. Each aircraft has it's own bindings and you simply switch planes.
Also, in order to map it ingame, you simply pull up the controls screen, type the keyboard equivalent for the control you want to map, zoom straight to that control, and map your button. No muss, no fuss.
Another advantage is that if you leave your controller plugged in and step away from the pc for a bit, your cat/dog won't delete the term paper that you've been working on for days... :lol:

This is fixed internally and will be in the next patch on wednesday
Good to hear! I'm really enjoying the Tomcat and HB did an amazing job! Thanks!
-
I think what he's referring to is that Jester rattles off a dozen or more different phrases - all running together, where he would normally only utter one phrase.
I've experienced the same thing. Sounds like he's just taken a dose of everything in the medicine cabinet...
"Soft Deck" How To?

The way the conditions are stacked with the ORs is a bit ambiguous.
It could be read as:
IF (line1 AND line2 AND line3) OR (line5 AND line6 AND line7) OR ...
Or, it could be interpreted as:
IF line1 AND line2 AND (line3 OR line5) AND line6 AND (line7 OR line9)...
Personally, I would separate them into individual triggers. At the very least, it'll be easier to read and troubleshoot.
