Im thinking of hardwiring this voice commands option into my sons XBOX, then when he randomly loses it and the neighbours can hear him shout "FCUK" at the top of his voice, his XBOX will shut down. Thanks for the suggestion. How do you tell voice commands what to do, do you just record F1-F12 and "Backspace" into viacom and map it to F1-12 / etc?

Bloody hell, was that how long ago BS1 was out! I think it had one of largest switch sequences to start up! Good luck with the pit Gipsy, i think its a tough one but a great start!!

Looking very good, keep going!!

Thanks guys, I did the comparison, they must all price match hey! Mwave was mostly the cheapest although I would save $100 buying the GPU and MOBO from Newegg plus GST. Would save $150 by splitting it across Mwave, Newegg, Umart, PC Case Gear and MSY. Still $2360 though, may have to rethink priorities!

Hello, For our Aussie viewers, where do you buy your PC components from? I used to buy from MSY when I was living in the city and had a couple of stores. Im not rural now by any stretch (Newcastle NSW) but there are no 'chain' stores here so I have been looking at MWave. "virtual built" my new rig with Mwave then saw that some parts from Newegg(US) were cheaper overall saved about $300 switching parts to newegg where they were cheaper. Has anyone purchased from Newegg? I dont want to get hit with a GST claim for importing goods making the overall rig more expensive. Also, MSY or Mwave, any others you aussies recommend to look at?? Thanks.

Probably post on input and output (the level above this forum). You probably want Helios mark 2 and Capt Zeens assistance.

I am in the close enough camp, I dont have the choice not to be due to the two left hands and inability to cut straight!

This is really fantastic!

Have you tried plugging the 1080p touch screen into the onboard graphics of the MOBO and not onto the GPU?

Done worry, C4ISR is even more confusing!

I dont know, GR1 is pretty old now, GR4 had all the new weapons that were integrated onto Typhoon so I am pretty sure the documentation is not available. GR1 was really just dumb bombs and Alarm for anti radiation and JP233 for runway denial, both of which are long out of service.

New Helios is awesome for the F/A-18C with the UFC already set up! Wish they would add each panel though so you can assemble your own screen.

Tornado GR4 is out of service with the UK now, this is the one i want to see although I dont think we will get it but the GR1 with TIALD, JP233, terrain following radar and other goodies would be awesome and I would imagine TIALD is out of service now?

Have you tried a quick start mission rather than one you created?

This guy is special, can we keep him?

+1 Perhaps also Starting out and random questions

Ah how time flies, (pun intended). Hey what size aluminium stock did you make those switch heads from back in 2015 and was it solid bar? I was going to try and make some using a drill press as the lathe and a dremel as the tool but local DIY store only has very small diameter bar.

Guys if its too pricey here is a simpler alternative, just get a mini keyboard and use a modifier (I use pinky): Unfortunately I cant find that keyboard for sale any more.

Looks like a cream filled biscuit! PS. I too want a landing gear handle, thought about using one of those drill bits that cut pipe holes. Select one that is the diameter you want, cut about 5 holes in a piece of 5mm poly sheet, glue them together then sand them into a handle shape. Drill into handle with a drill bit about the size of a biro. Cut a biro, stick in hole and glue, paint then glue to switch, job jobbed.

Can you imagine the fury of the forums if they decided to charge a small fee for the time and effort put into updating the aircraft? Its like watching an old space movie and complaining its not cutting edge CGI 10 years later, but some in this community would do that..... "Bbbbut raytracing....." (insert new technology here) yeah we will upgrade you $50 module for ever free of charge like ummmmm...no other game. I suppose this is a unique quirk of putting out an environment (DCS World) which is ever evolving, with say Battlefield, they can just release BF6 to include say VR and Ray Tracing (or whatever) and the old one falls away unsupported, whereas if DCS does an improvement that changes something they have to make it backward compatible or else update all the modules using it. There will be an interesting time when there is a step change in technology and DCS World and all the modules will become completely obsolete, like they were written in DOS! I probably wont be around but can you think of any other platforms like this one? It seems the type of software that lends itself to a license fee in my opinion.

Sorry to hijack but what color are people using for the outer skin and internal grey parts. Anyone in Australia suggest a shade of wall colour I could use for the pit. Also, do you guys get decals printed on line and delivered or make your own?

This is why I wish my old man was still alive, he could have done this unlike my two left hands! Nice work man!

You dont want to use pots on the UFC, use a rotary encoder. Pots are used on the axis but non of the UFC inputs are one the axis. (AFAIK).

Hang on a moment, post your pit in the pit builders section, its awesome!!

I was a premature, so last night it went and I couldnt see it in the bios or anything. Same again this morning. So I did as this internet page said and jest left the power in for 60 minutes or more but not the SATA. I typed this thread then thought it's been an hour so lets see. Plugged it in and went to bios and there it was the little bugger!! Booted back up and I have started backing up all those things I dont want to lose on my USB Hard Drive!! So if anyone is reading this, try the above method before you throw the SSD against a wall!
