  1. No..not using scripts or target for DCS A-10. Seems to me that ED should enable the gun to fire when using snap view for the HUD. If not a Bug...than a logical enhancement for the next patch.
  2. I tried to map the Num0 +Num5 Combo on my Hotas Warthog. I could not figure out how to use this combination of keys with a Modifier and the Mic Hat Switch on the Throttle. Can this be done?
  3. Yes, did a trk on this yesterday...clearly a problem. Should be easy for the testers to reproduce.
  4. I have NVIDIA 260, same issue. I fixed this by changing the Shadow setting to either low or high. It only shows up on the Medium setting.
  5. The Encyclopedia shows a Maverick AGM 65E laser guided. It does not show the AGM 65H or the AGM 65G The weapons menu has the AGM 65H,K,G, and D and not the AGM 65E. Perhaps I missed it in some other post, I did search, but will the A-10C carry the AGM 65E, and will the encyclopedia be updated to show the AGM 65H and AGM 65G?
  6. Serial 01298 Reston, Virginia, USA
  7. Having trouble with Slave to All. When I have designated a point track target with TGP, I designate SPI, I switch to maverick display, but when I try to slave the maverick to the SP1 nothing happens. I have a Wingman Extreme Joystick, with no China Hat button. I set up the Left Shift + Up Hat to be the same as China Hat Forward. It does not seem to do anything. How do I enable this, if I don't have a China Hat button?
  8. I have a Nvidia 260, with the latest drivers, and I experience the same flickering of the town, with very bright colors. Also see flickering at the airbase on buildings and distortion of runway textures when approaching from 2000 ft.
  9. Initial Training Takeoff Tried the training lesson on take off. It appears that the clouds are very flat, with much less 3d perspective than in Flaming Cliffs 2. When I landed, I rolled onto the grass. Despite increasing my throttle to the max, the plane would not budge. I am pretty sure that this is not realistic performance for an A-10. Otherwise, I had good frame rates 30 plus in the entire lesson. Also note that when the instructor is speaking. He is almost drowned out by the sound of the engines...when all sound settings are set to the max.
  10. I learned that you have to have at least one wingman...with the same target objectives....and then the diamond will show up.
  11. When conducting Ground Attacks with the A-10 the targeting diamond only appears when more than one plane is involved in the mission. If I create a mission and select my ground targets, and don't add at least one wingman...the target diamond does not appear. Is this what is really supposed to happen or is it a bug?
  12. I tried it with any of the transports...you can't have more than one. You can have other types which will take off after each other, but not the same type of AC.
  13. In the editor I select Russian planes for a transport or Recon mission. I select four units....four pilots. The editor reflects my choices but in the mission only one plane shows up. Is this a bug?
  14. When I first create a track of a mission, and try to run it, I get an error message which is display in a dialogue box, ..it mentions a zip file that can't be accessed etc. When I close the dialogue box...the track will load properly. The error message says " ERROR:.\balckshark\modules\me_traceback.lua:110:ZipOpen:can't open zip file" followed by more text lines under the heading of Stack Traceback. This happens for all track files even the ones that came with the program.
  15. Where is the correct location for the FC2 graphics.cfg. The one in the Config folder can't be right....I am running 2048x1152 and it says 1080x 760 etc. And the file date is 3/3/2010. I am trying to turn off the radio text messages on the upper left hand corner of the screen and other text messages that appear on the screen in white at the top....like 3 bandits have entered the mission etc...
  16. For the F15C and the A10...tried to get the release weapon control to map to my Wingman Extreme 3d pro. The selection box is disabled so I can't remap. The Keyboard and Mouse slots are enabled. How can I fix this. I even did a re-install, but that did not change anything.
  17. Using my Wingman Extreme 3d Pro. In Lock On Flaming Cliffs.....I felt a much more deliberate control of the aircraft...all aircraft. In FC 2....the stick reacts to the slightest pressure...I have turned force feedback off and I am experimenting with Deadzone, curve, x, y settings. Is there a recommended setting to get the best in overall responsiveness and control??
  18. Wingman Extreme 3d Pro For the F15C and the A10...tried to get the release weapon control to map to my Wingman Extreme 3d pro. The selection box is disabled so I can't remap. The Keyboard and Mouse slots are enabled. How can I fix this. I even did a re-install, but that did not change anything. Also....seems like I have to remap the controls for every aircraft individually???is there a simple way to have the settings for one aircraft....affect all of them?
  19. Trim in the SU25T My key mapping to reset the trimmers is Ctrl T, but I do not notice the trim light indicators returning to Green when I press Ctrl T. Is there some magic to getting the Trim to Reset in this aircraft?
  20. Windows 7 Task Bar I agree this only happens in my case when I am prompted to fly again etc...and in that case the buttons to cancel or fly again, record track etc...are partially obscured by the windows 7 task bar.
  21. Performance with I5-750 I have a new rig using Turbo Boost I5-750 with 4G Ram and NV 260 with 800+MB. I have not overclocked the GPU...but I did enable Turbo Boost...which pushes the I5-750 up to 3.2GHz when demand is up. So far, using Vsynch and all settings set high with water at medium I am getting 60 FPS on a 2048 x 1152 23 inch wide-screen...with Ansio at 15x and AA at 8x combined. Considering that I am running the original lock on at the moment...waiting for FC 2....I am very pleased with the smooth flight over cities and everywhere else. So...assuming that my 4 cores are not currently being used....it looks like the I5-750 is a winner coupled with a good GFX card. I expect FC 2.0 will be a bit more sophisticated....but I should stay in the ball park of my current performance with high settings.
  22. Lock On Install from CD Resolved the issue this morning. 1. Determined that prior install which used J drive....could be undone by eliminating the current J drive reference which turned out to be a USB Card reader. Found this out thru the Device Manager. 2. Used and external program from http://www.uwe-sieber.de/usbdlm_e.html..to eliminate the USB drive designation until I need it...sets it dynamically -USBDLM- is easy to set up and works. 3. Then set my external drive to become a J drive via the Disk Manager. 4. Then re-installed Lock On to the J external drive. 5. Then uninstalled Lock On completely from the external drive. 6. This action cleaned out the registry entries that were preventing me from doing the install. 7. Then successfully installed Lock On to my E drive. Now I am happy and ready for FC 2.0
  23. I can't re-install Lock On (from the original CD). I recently had to have my new computer sent back for repair. I took the drive out before shipping that contained the Lock On, Flaming Cliffs etc...installation. When I got my computer back. I reinstalled my hard drive where I keep Lock On etc. The drive got relabled from "J:" to "E:". Because of that I could not load Lock On. I attempted to uninstall everything but could not do it automatically. I manually unistalled everything...including starforce. I tried to re-install from the basic original Lock On CD. Even though I manually cleaned out the registry....I could not clean out a couple of entries that still referred to Lock On on Drive "J". When I try to install from the original CD...it fails...since the install program still thinks the prior install is in drive "J". Using Regedit , I tried to eliminate the following...but I get an error message that I can't overwrite the values. Value Name: Mask Value Data J:\LOCK ON-FLAMING CLIFFS\LOCKON.EXE And for the following Registry Entrys: Value Name: slmagePath Value Data: J:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Eagle Dynamics\Lock On\lockon.exe Value Name: ImagePath Value Data: J:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Eagle Dynamics\Lock On\lockon.exe Again can't delete or overwrite the values. I think, If I could get rid of these entrys or change them....I could re-install. I am just trying to re-install the original Lock On CD. I am trying to just get ready for Flaming Cliffs 2.0. PS...I do run the install for compatibility to Windows XP and as the administrator. Thanks for any help you can offer.
