can not reproduce Hind not lifting off?
unlikely_spider replied to drummer's topic in Bugs and Problems
Are wheel chocks on? -
^ That is why I will always buy Reflected's campaigns (Among other reasons)

Mission 7 - playthrough
unlikely_spider replied to Lt_Jaeger's topic in F-14A Fear the Bones Campaign
From that range how do you know which are the bombers? -
Fear the Bones! - Campaign Info
unlikely_spider replied to Reflected's topic in F-14A Fear the Bones Campaign
-
Some campaigns utilize a feature like that, but the mission creator has to implement the option into specific points in the missions.

You're not going to get an answer for that here

It’s time to end the never ending AI vertical loop.
unlikely_spider replied to PSYKOnz's topic in DCS Core Wish List
Yes, this, and also the crazy maneuvers often seen in groups of AI flying in formation. There is some real wackiness in a lot of the WW2 campaigns. -
DCS: de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito FB Mk VI Discussion
unlikely_spider replied to msalama's topic in DCS: Mosquito FB VI
Do I recall that someone is making a campaign for it? Reflected maybe? -
Question for ED. Separate The liveries from the game ?
unlikely_spider replied to macedk's topic in DCS Core Wish List
Storage space aside, also to consider is the impact that these liveries have on download speed for customers with less than optimal internet connections. -
Wingmen incessant talking over radio.
unlikely_spider replied to DropBear64's topic in User Created Missions General
Isn't there an option for that already? Not at my PC so I don't remember what it's called. -
Feedback Thread - F-14 Patch 11th Aug 2021
unlikely_spider replied to Spurts's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
Yeah, also weird to me. They cycled the arresting hook while on the cat? I'll have to learn to do this or check the NWS light before launch, maybe by learning the hard way a few times By the way, I'm a warbird pilot at heart, and have never loved a jet like I do this Tomcat. One free trial period was all it took. So thanks for all that you do. -
requested VR head moves through closed Cockpit
unlikely_spider replied to 71st_Mastiff's topic in Bugs and Problems
I don't know about others, but I don't do it purposefully. It just happens as I look around. -
requested VR head moves through closed Cockpit
unlikely_spider replied to 71st_Mastiff's topic in Bugs and Problems
What is kind of startling in VR is the sudden wind noise when your head breaches that plane. Any sudden increase in noise is especially disconcerting when in a hostile situation -
Mission 1 - Feedback ***SPOILERS***
unlikely_spider replied to Strider21's topic in F-14A Fear the Bones Campaign
I typically just subtract six or seven from their stated carrier brc due to magnetic variation, and I think it works out ok that way? Is that not how it's supposed to work? Either way during landing I use tacan to get myself like 90% there, then ICLS needles and the carrier green/red lights to line myself up perfectly, so I'm not sure if tacan needs to be 100% accurate at that stage. I didn't have any issues hitting the triggers during this mission while getting on the right radial, but I'm not sure how much buffer Reflected gives the player. -

Isn't there a patch tomorrow? Not sure what's in it though. -
Hornet Single Player not playable anymore in the Beta-version
unlikely_spider replied to oho's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
I thought the hotfix patch was scheduled for tomorrow -
Would I like the F14 if I don't like the F18
unlikely_spider replied to Gunfreak's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
Fully agreed. My takeaway from learning the Tomcat, a module that I didn't expect to love so much, is that it has many of the benefits and versatility of a modern fighter with the visceral feel of a warbird. It's a real stick and rudder plane that lacks the sterile feeling of fly-by-wire aircraft. Best of both worlds. Edit - and, speaking of rudder, get used to really kicking the Tomcat around using your pedals during close-in dogfights unless you want to repeatedly recreate the dramatic scene from a certain mid-80s action movie. -
During the battle of Britain, British drivers were encouraged to drive on the right side of the road in order to confuse the Luftwaffe into thinking they were over the mainland and mistakenly land at a British airfield. To further the illusion the War Office also provided VW stickers for drivers to place over the griffin logo on their Vauxhalls and outdoor diners had their breakfast sausages cut long and twisted in a bow so that they would be mistaken for pretzels from above.

Red Flag Training Missions - F-16C
unlikely_spider replied to beppe_goodoldrebel's topic in Missions and Campaigns
You should just be able to find the miz files in the Campaign folder, then copy them to the missions folder under Saved Games. Then browse to My Missions in DCS to open one that you want to play. -
Trying to play the Fear the Bones campaign in the open beta but the AI Hornets that take off before me (which seem critical to the mission) just immediately crash into the water Are we getting a patch for this soon? Edit - I see Bignewy's comment in the Bugs section. Thanks much.
