Thanks

i still cannot zoom in and out of the ABRIS top down map view in game mode. Someone please help. Also, is it possible to zoom in and out of the camera view when locked? Somehow the keys just dont seem to work. Thanks guys.

What do you mean by "lt rt" ? I'm getting there ! Thanks

Thanks USSR Rik, works perfectly now. If you dont mind, can I ask a couple more questions : 1. Is it possible to zoom in and out of the ABRIS map view 2. What do I need to do to end a mission when I fly back, or how do i know the mission is done, and/or succesfull 3. Why does the helipcopter fall over when I land. I have to use rudder and so on to keep it upright Thanks

I dont undertsand. If I go to the axiz controls, it still doesnt explain anything.

Yes, I know its collective. But I cannot seem to assign it to my joystick. When I doudle-click on the joysitck tab to change it, I can only bring up this list with BTN_1, BTN_10, ect. And there's lots of them. No one cleary saying it is the "collective".

I play the DCS BS game in "Game" mode, for now. I have a question regarding controls. In game mode my throttle is assigned to the "A" and "Q" keys. However, I would like to re-assign this to my normal joystick throttle control, like in "Simulator" mode. When I go to the controls and try to do this, by moving the throttle up or down, nothing happens. Then I clicked on the drop down arrow, and see a list of possibilities, but I do not know what to select. Can anyone help please ?

What you're saying makes sence, I think my problem is with the holding of the fire button,and not just pressing it. Thanks for the feedback. I'll go back to the training, and just try harder.

I'm using a joystick. Thanks for all the help. I do get the C symbol on the HUD. What do you mean with "press the release button". I can only use the cannon, the rockets and missiles does not work, or I do not know how to select them. Guys, I dont want to sound stupid, I really just need help here. For some reason I just cannot get things to work right. Thanks again.

I have a couple of questions, if anyone can help : 1. The sim features a "game" mode, and a "simulator" mode. I just want to know on witch of of these two modes the training in BS is based on. 2. For some reason I cannot get my rockets or missiles to fire or work in any way. I also cannot lock onto anything. I try to follow everything as close as possible, but still nothing. Can anyone give me a short description on how this is done. Even just the basic keys I need to press, please. I'm playing in game mode, as I am new to BS. I can do all the basics already, like take-off, flying, waypoints, landing, ATC, ect. It's just locking on targets and using the weapons. Thanks

I will, thanks. Also, does anyone know whether the in game tutorials are for Game mode, or for Simulator mode? Thanks

I bought the game a couple of days ago, and i'm learning fast. Awesome. The problem I have, is with the weapons. I'm really struggling with weapons selection, locking onto targets, and firing weapons. For some reason the keys dont seem to respond. I think i'm skipping some of the steps, or something. If anyone can just give me a short description on this, it would be greatly appresiated. I'm playing in "Game" mode, for now. Thank in advance
