I can create up to 6 kneeboard shortcuts and they all work fine, going beyond that the shortcut tab gets made but the keypress to jump to it does not register, so at the moment I only get 6 shortcuts on any kneeboard

Problem with Mission 10 - Juba Not advancing
Oilman100 replied to King39's topic in A-10C Operation Piercing Fury Campaign
Had the same issue, the triggers must be broken as Juba should shoot the incoming choppers and then flee and you shoot his car. The issue is that the helo’s never leave the airport, so I took it that the trigger was broken. -
It’s a standalone program that allows you to assign 2 buttons on you joystick, which enables 2 snap views over each shoulder. The angle is customizable and you can also slew instead of snap, simply helps when you VR gives you a very limited behind view

You will pay import duty of 3.5% and VAT of 20%, on the total cost you pay which means items and postage, plus the handling fee by the shipper e.g. Fedex

There is no Kneeboard, when I hit the key to show it all I get is a white dot, when I turn it off the dot disappears ? When I use monitor only, I can drag and resize as required. I’m new to VR (G2) so not sure whether I need to do something different than before

I use the Kneeboard program and it works perfectly using the monitor but in VR the Kneeboard does not appear, all I get is a white dot, any ideas ?

Thx for the reply and explanation

Just purchased the TPR rudder pedals and wanted to use it with Target software to allow customization of curves etc. I’m hopefully not the first person who came across this issue. When you add the script lines (I got these from the GUI script software) for the rudder and brakes and then run the script file, I found the brakes uses the same axis as as the slew control on the throttle (RX & RY) and the rudder uses the same axis as the Throttle (Thrust) Axis RZ ?? So therefore in DCS it won’t allow you to have dual usage of an axis. If I exclude them from the script, then DCS finds them as it’s own controller and it all works fine. Any chance someone found a workaround for Target ?

missing track file INS not completing properly in Multiplayer missions
Oilman100 replied to Oilman100's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Ok I will look for that tonight, move first to NAV, ensure P/INS is showing and then only move to IFA, if not leave in NAV -
missing track file INS not completing properly in Multiplayer missions
Oilman100 replied to Oilman100's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
nope Blue -
I only ever see this issue in multiplayer missions, as does everyone else on the sever that I'm playing with. I carry out the proper short form INS alignment and when I get the OK, I press the IFA dial and I get the below screen, the time starts to count up from zero and I loose the TimeUFC and AUTO tags and now get Land & Sea. I never get this in single player. If I move the dial back to NAV the TimeUFC and Auto reappear but the INS then gets screwed up. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. The missions are based in the present day so GPS should be active?

Apologies, yes Redkites, but looking at Devs reply above, the particular feature of re-assigning aircraft mission objectives is broke, but at least the video explains how it should be

Just watched the Spudknocker video on YouTube, which takes you through the first mission and he explains how to set it up and also RV points etc. worth a watch to give you some hands on insight into how to set up

I have a pre-order with System Active since November, have now been informed that they will fulfill all preorders by 19th Feb, with HP supply from the US on the 16th Feb. To be honest they have communicated quickly but are beholden to HP supply chain in the US. So I would think they will start normal orders after that, from what we've been told they only are receiving orders every 8-10 weeks from US, so not an optimistic answer I'm afraid.

Ok I understand, I use the switches that I rarely use, eg the two above, these flick switches are ideal for Flags and I never mapped them before, I also use EFLNORM, again I don’t really use these switches as I prefer to have the max usage on the HOTAS itself. I use the Boat switch and Pinky switch all the time so don’t want to give them up, they are also pivotal with the A-10C-2, F-18 and F-16. It’s a preference thing but also slowly pushing what can be done with script and using the experts on this forum to get it right. Many thx, I will try it today and revert if I can’t get it work.

Have a look at the Target Script manual and under flags and functions and you get multiple examples of how they can be used, it’s just another level of programming, in simple terms it gives you as many UMD switches as you like, think of them as profiles, each flag represents a profile, if you want to refuel, the profile sets up you HOTAS for refueling, Startup profile, carrier landing profile, Comms Profile etc, simple apply the flag and have the HOTAS set up exactly how you need. It just takes UMD to the next level, especially good for VR where you want as much as you can on the HOTAS setup

I’m not actually using keystrokes, I’m using Functions but it’s easier to use keystrokes in the example, the functions control custom curves, slew speeds, led flashing lights etc APilot based on switch locations (Hornet), with flags like above you can have as many options as you want e.g I have one push button but with a flag switch it can control Discord, Vaicom and in flight comms. Its a powerful tool when set up.

Better sending in a TRK file, remember the JTAC will give you co-ordinates, I think in that mission they are at a waypoint, so make sure you are pointing directly at it, ensure you declare to JTAC, ‘IP Inbound’ and then ‘Laser On’ command, once they acknowledge then Uncage your Mav, whilst pointing your nose at the general area, ensure your pointing down at about 5° to get optimum chance of lock.
