I love the spit, I’ve had it for a year or so and found it very difficult to get it off the ground! Turning round and round in circles but all of that was my poor understanding of controls. I’m really enjoying it now as a break from the fast movers my only disappointment is the lack of training videos I think we deserved a few more than they gave us.

These look superb and very helpful, the work to create them is greatly appreciated. Bit of a newbie on tech matters, can someone point me to a thread on incorporating the knee boards into the game for incockpit reading please? thanks for any assistance ian

It’s incredible, loved the line up directions, so much more immersive. Have failed every time to land hit the back of the carrier, stall into the water etc etc. so going to love practicing in this Glad I went for the pre launch purchase although didn’t see any discount for already owning the. F18

I can't wait, suddenly I'm no longer thinking about a virus !!!!!

OMG it's true! oh man that's my F14,F16 and F18 hours out of the window now will DCS make a map that includes Lossiemouth Scotland - my local airfield (4 hours round trip) where I watch the Tiffies practice! Wish they had started with the old but much loved Tornado but who cares - amazing news!!!!

bignewy Thankyou so much for that, it works perfectly now. This forum has helped me out so many times I really appreciate it. Could I also ask if there's a talk through for getting online to fly with other people. In all the time I've been flying the sim and buying new modules and scenery I've never been able to get online and fly with a real person. Do you need the teamspeak hardware and software or is it possible to communicate in some other way once online? Again thanks for helping me out with the antivirus issue ! Ian

Thanks Can anyone talk me through telling MacAfee to ignore the DCS file it is quaranteeing anytime I start the sim? If I disable MacAfee the open beta runs fine and it runs the stable DCS world with the MacAfee turned on Sorry to be such an illiterate on PC matters

Turns out macafee was quarantining files for me after the big update on open beta so looks like I’m back up with both. Need to get macafee to ignore the file. Can I ask while I’m here I have a small SSD and a standard large drive D is it ok to store both stable world and beta world on drive D or would open beta be better installed on the SSD ? Thanks for any advice Ian

Same here latest upload downloaded, open beta wouldn’t run. Have now deleted it and starting to download it again then of course won’t be able to run any of my modules, all missions lost, joystick assignments lost and days for the download to complete. Very very pissed off

Can’t believe people are criticising ED and Wags in particular as soon as the module is released. Look at the quality of scenery we are flying these simulated aircraft in. Who remembers flying in 2 dimensional line drawn simulators and having a blast getting a taste of what the real thing is like. Falcon 3 then falcon 4 took up months of my life and gave me great pleasure. Then along comes DCS and the A10c my god what a transition then the new graphics model gets released. Getting my real world pilots licence was partly due to endless circuits over Bantumi in an A10 not a Cessna 172.it was the real world feel I was getting from a simulator and not paying £200 an hour for the privilege. I’m over the moon I can get my teeth into an F16 which will fly in the DCS world today when I download my pre release copy. Give the guys a break folks, they’ve surpassed themselves getting this module released in the time they’ve had, just like the Hornet is coming along it will only get better. Forget about missions and weapon systems just now let’s just go flying and practising take offs and touch and go landings. I’m a happy customer ED and thanks Wags for the countless academic and enjoyable videos.

Hi folks, couldn’t hold off any longer and bought the pre lease module today. Should i see anything from ED to confirm I’ve bought it or just wait till release? Thanks Ian

Feel a bit stupid, after looking at aspect ration until I had square eyes I’ve finally noticed the resolution of my display was wrong. It’s working perfectly now Very sorry to have wasted people’s time !!!

Thanks for that suggestion Sadly doesn’t make any difference Chillblast Intel core i7-8700K 3.70GHz 16.0 GB 64-bit NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Windows 10 TM HOTAS Saitek combat rudder pedals, Track IR 5
