Help please. I was playing a mission i created myself for training purposes, nothing special, placed a boat and APC, destroyed the boat then used the cannon on the APC, while firing the game froze and had to end-task it. DCS-20091115-000130.zip DxDiag.zip

Thanks :)

would Alt+c also allow you to click buttons on cockpit?

do i need to have LOMAC to play LockOn: Flaming Cliffs. I can't find a digital download of LOMAC. Thanks.

why would you wanna pay the stupid GST/PST/HST? unless you want to make our retarded politicians richer? i buy online as much as i can to avoid paying taxes and shipping costs :protest:

please keep in mind beginners and try to put as much details as you can, where is your web site, can we pre-order? don't you think $50 is a little bit pushing it!!

not confused and happy guys, i finally mastered the cannon :joystick: now i can blow targets with ATGM and cannon with auto tracking, very easy. Now i'm focusing on rockets and since it's fixed i have to learn flying smoothly, i found the cannon way easier than than rockets. Afterward, i'll be focusing on ABRIS :book:. Can't wait to :pilotfly: online once i get internet. I wanted to thank everybody who dedicated their time to help me.:beer:

thanks guys, could not have done it with you, god bless.

huh? that wasn't my intention, i was saying that BS took me away from playing my favorite game arma2, sorry if that hurt your feelings and may loose sleep tonight over it. :doh:

I have a question regarding this from the manual: Using the 2A42 Cannon with Auto-tracking To use the 2A42 30mm on-board cannon with auto-tracking, perform the following steps: 1. Select the 2A42 cannon. This will display the cannon‟s range of motion as a “gate” box on the HUD. The box will be biased to the right because the cannon is mounted on the right side of the helicopter. 2. Maneuver the helicopter to place the target / target marker within the gate. 3. Confirm that target is locked and is being auto-tracked. 4. Once the target is within attack range (2000 m for cannon), and assuming the target / target marker is within the gate box, the “C” symbol will be displayed. Press cannon fire button and hold it until the burst is completed. Release button and press and hold again if another burst is needed to destroy the target. 5. If the gate on the HUD starts flashing, this indicates that you have reached maximum range of motion for the cannon and firing will cease. Fly the helicopter back on target to attack with cannon again. 6. When the target is destroyed, or the attack prohibited “X” symbol appears, break off the attack. (3). How to lock? using Shkval or holding enter? Thanks.

thank you so much for all the tips and help, i will focus on one thing at a time and will keep you updated on my progress. I have never touched such a real flight sim before but truly this game made me study the manual and online literature. I have watched producers notes but they don't show what switches to turn.

i really like this game, i'm a big fan of arma2 and haven't played it a lot trying so hard to learn the weapon system on this ak-50. Went through the manual and studies the target panels, shkval but i can't for the life of me, understand the rocket and cannon system, auto tracking, fixed vs. moving cannon, gun sight, laser range finder, i even checked the videos but the producer went so quickly through them and doesn't explain much, i'm honestly getting discouraged and not motivated any more, could you please help me with links, videos, clear instructions on the above. I have mastered the ATGM and made a simple mission trying to apply what i read but really don't know if i'm doing it right or not? please help. Another think that confuses me in the manual is the auto/manual weapon control switch, the manual suggests to leave it on auto but if i do so, i won't be able to fire "no C would show on shkval" but when i put it up, the "C" shows up? :helpsmilie:

thank you guys, it is going to require lots of practice.

Rockets - Manual I'm still confused, in the manual it says: Using Rockets or Fixed Cannon with Auto-tracking To attack a target with the cannon in the fixed position, first set the “ОСН РЕЖ” (weapon system mode) selector on the Targeting Mode Control panel to the "НПУ" (fix cannon to boresight) position. Attacking with fixed cannon or rockets using auto-tracking mode requires the following: 1. Verify that target is being tracked by Shkval. 2. Once the target is within attack range, maneuver the helicopter to aim HUD target marker over the target. my question: if it is auto-tracking why do i need to maneuver the chopper? Firing Rockets or Cannons Using Laser-Rangefinder again i still need to maneuver the chopper? so what is the difference between the two methods? which of the above can use shkval to seek and lock targets? or can i even lock targets through skval?

i'm dropping one ship and a helicopter in the map, save, then load the mission. When i start the mission it is all AI, please help i have never used the mission editor and i have read the manual!

yes, i was busy playing arma2 but felt like some BS. Thanks again for the help.

oh thank you so much, my serial code is there. For some reason when i downloaded the game i created a readme file and stored two serial codes which have no idea where i got them from. :megalol:

thanks for your quick response. I downloaded the game long ago and i don't remember. But the serial code i have starts with d

hi, I did a fresh windows 7 install and can't activate "Activation denied by server. The serial number entered has not been found in the activation database..... I purchased this game from DCS website and i have to codes, one is getting rejected right away, the other one is giving me the above error message.

Have you changed something in the catalyst control panel? read help on what settings to change and not to change? some settings you should leave on "let the application decides" also make sure AI is enabled. If you put this PC together, does your power supply supplies enough power for you PC/graphic card, have you checked the graphic card minimum power supply requirement?

never been in that situation but i'm curious of what's next? you exit the game or call for help, walk? but i remember completing a mission and it showed mission success but was still in the game so had to exit and my track said dead?

I read online that CH is the best programmable joystick out there.

map the RAlt-space to your joystick button.

oh lord!, just kidding, good luck :-)

i just found out it is hardware issue, apparently the joystick goes into standby mode when no movement is detected, so that's why i have to shake the stick to get it back online, stupid if you ask me, never wireless anymore, i'm sending it back for refund as it’s ruining my game experience.
