Thank you @G.J.S and @Zabuzard, I was able to get my fav modual back. I saw in the linked discussion there is a suggestion to make the entire DCS directory excluded from the virus checker. Someone added in that thread that there have not been any reported real virus attacks via DCS. To that all I can say is there's always a first time. Instead, I let my guard down but for only the one file that was quarantined. The heatblur file. I looked it up in quarantine, and selected the "restore and add exception" option. This way, I was only taking a chance on one file. And it worked! Best, Rick

I apologize if this is not the right place to post this. I went to fire up DCS today and my F-4E came up as "not authorized and will be disabled". This is a purchased plane from Steam and I have flow it over the last year off and on. It is legit as are all the other purchased modules. I fired up my heatblur F-14 and it ran fine. It's not even showing in the icon row in DCS as grayed out - it's just MIA. Help - or direct me to the right place please. PS; It is still showing in Steam as purchased and in my library.

Hi Everyone. I'm experienced in single player DCS F-4e and my friend is getting the F-4e very soon. Several years ago I tried to set up something that would allow me and my friend to connect (just us along with AI planes from a mission I make). When I tried to do it several years ago it involved opening router ports which honestly became too much so we gave up. Can you point me to a really good article or video that shows how to (easily) fly missions on the same map together. Is there a service I could use for this? All recommendations appreciated! rick

I seem to be struggling with the interactive map. Sometimes working beautifully, sometimes seems to have a mind of its own. Also I find that sometimes it messes with the keyboard input. Maybe it's just my technique. That's a possibility.

One thing I really love is how immersive the new Jester call-outs are. While I was playing, I was Mav and Jester was Goose. LOVE THIS.

I knew, based on the F-14 which was superb from day 1 (with minor exceptions), that behind the curtain at Heatblur were some extremely talented individuals. Extremely. Now we get to meet one of them, Grover. PhD particle physics! Welcome Grover to the board and thank you for making my flight dreams (while comfortably snacking in my seat), a reality. I personally hope you can find time (in your spare time!) to tell us more about the F-4E. But even if you can't, may the force be with you and thank you! Flameoutme

Heatblur as a company stands above and alone in the DCS world. At least that has been my experience. So many software developers set a release date, the work slips, but they release anyways to the disappointment of fans. Riddled with bugs. In fact, I'd say that is the rule today not the exception. But Heatblur has a reputation for wanting to get things right, at least to the maximum extent possible. So if they have delayed release again, I'd rather it be that than feeling the frustration of things not working right. I do feel bad for anyone who has taken time from work for the release. I know it's disappointing. Flameoutme

My $59.99 is burning a hole through my pocket!

I haven't heard about the '77 and TSQ-96 since way back when I was in the AF and operated/maintained these.

Question: were all the scenes in the trailer in-game? I couldn't tell! (that's a good thing). But I wanted to get confirmation so I could tell my retired air force friend that.

THANK YOU!!!!!

Thanks!

Subject line says it all. I'd like to scout out an area for a mission.

Is there a way via the mission editor to put some kind of marker in the sky for training purposes via the mission editor .... like the yellow circles I have seen in some of the tutorials? I've looked around but could not find.

I'm lov'in this module. I put my VR glasses on, turn on my Buttkicker chair vibrator, and fly treetop level across the countryside. What a great feeling. And the basics in this aircraft are... basic and easy to learn. Muchas gracias. I own a lot of modules and this is my new fav. I know it's early access but I highly recommend the Mosquito.
