  1. There is an Initial and a Max value when the page file is set to Custom. Should this be the same value for each?
  2. All VR headsets should come with a utility knife attached. Manufacturers, please take note.
  3. I'm not sure I understand - VR headsets need cameras or IR transmitters to know their orientation, just like trackIR does.
  4. Ok, I was able to do this mission finally. I had to exceed EGT redline for quite a bit, though just for a few seconds until I could get above the trees. Is that normal to do when taking off while at high load? Looks like this campaign is going to be quite challenging!
  5. Thanks. I'm pretty sure I tried that, by instinct. Are the windsocks accurate in DCS at the moment, in ob? I'm not yet totally versed in managing the red line in the Huey I guess.
  6. I mapped this to a hotas key which makes glancing at the map much easier! (Also setting autopilot helps too, hah)
  7. In mission 1 at Company HQ when they load the helicopter - I can't take off without either hitting trees or destroying the engine. Does anyone have tips?
  8. By that do you mean flipping the mirrors in the respective aircraft so that they aren't visible? Or enforcing it globally somehow?
  9. Yeah, if the thread creator hasn't figured it out in the last year and a half hopefully your post will help!
  10. Yes, that's what I would do. Good luck! Note that all installed applications may not react gracefully to simply being copied from one drive to another. But a search on these forums results in previous successful user experiences doing this for DCS at least. If it's just DCS that you're copying, you should be ok. Just remember that a repair using the Eagle Dynamics DCS repair function may not hurt once you're done, especially if there are issues afterwards.
  11. It looks like you have four SATA ports, on the bottom right of the mobo (see attached image, items 8 and 9). Just plug the new one in, copy the contents, then remove the old one. Once you remove the old one, ensure that your current drives are in the faster two SATA ports (labeled SATA6, items 9 in the image). Then you can rename the new drive if it gets assigned anything other than D.
  12. Don't worry about the drive letters. Those can be easily changed. The first step is just to get the new drive connected to your PC (which may require a SATA to USB adapter if there are no free slots). Then copy the contents. Then remove the old drive.
  13. If that means that you have two slots, and they are both taken already, then you can get a SATA to USB adapter for like $10 so that you can temporarily have three plugged in at once.
  14. You can leave the existing drive, plug in the new one, copy the contents, then remove the old drive. Then just assign the old drive letter to the new one. Edit - I don't think I've done this myself on a drive that had an actual application installed on it. Web searches give me mixed opinions on whether the application itself will work correctly. Maybe you'll need to do a repair on DCS when it's done. At least trying this method out is non-destructive and you can always revert to the old drive as long as you do t uninstall anything.
  15. Shot in the dark, but do you happen to have water injection bound to something and you're hitting it inadvertently? Also take a look at the turbocharger rpm when this happens to see if it is involved. It can have a 'multiplying' effect on engine rpm.
  16. Do you deploy countermeasures when you see the launch? I was shot down by it the first time (when it caught me by surprise) but the second time I was able to evade it. Maybe try a practice mission where there are MANPADs that you can practice avoiding them. They aren't very maneuverable.
  17. Maybe this answers your question? https://youtu.be/yL19358Xdx4
  18. It's a new option in the menu now when you hit Escape
  19. That's crazy. I would have done it for just $13 billion.
  20. Yeah, helicopters are tough to radar lock. Not sure how realistic that is. But you can still get sidewinders to IR lock them. Or as mentioned above just shoot them with guns.
  21. They are guides available for each of the released aircraft. There's not going to be one for a module that is not out yet.
  22. For which module? Chuck's Guides have a recommended binding for the respective aircraft near the beginning of each guide.
  23. I'm at this mission and haven't started yet - the briefing says to use the bombs in PP mode. But wouldn't it be easier to create waypoints for each of the targets so that I can see them in the ATFLIR, the pickle one at a time while changing waypoints between each? It seems that I can designate a target with a waypoint which will slave both the pod and bomb to that specific waypoint, but if I program into the bomb in PP mode, I can't go the other way in order to verify that I'm dropping it on the right target.
  24. What do you mean by glitching?
