Simply for information, DCS crashes each time I exit the program when using certain mods, I KNOW this is because of a MOD that I want use in specific missions. I have 2 MODS folders, one that I know will NOT crash the program on exit and one that I know WILL. Crashing after I click exit doesn't worry me...

I mentioned this very point in my post on Feb 8 and said that the upcoming (3rd party) DCS Web Editor should address many of these points.

Probably obvious but have you tried unplugging ALL your input devices (controllers / mouse / keyboard etc) after you start the sim?

You cannot "change" the HUD? You can add and subtract displayed information by using the switches to the right of the stick.

Exploration or exploitation?

Oh dear... it seems like anyone who disagrees with you is missing the point. This makes it sound like they are sitting around a table, plotting how they can make your DCS experience miserable? Why not focus on all the great aspects of the SIM that have been achieved rather than whining about one, comparatively, minor aspect that bugs you? (In case you have no recollection of how things were...)

Just a wild guess

Amazed that this blip caused so much ruckus! Your login is not linked to your cardiac pacemaker it's just entertainment! (Many thanks to the ED team for a speedy fix)

Voice attack coupled with Viacom?

Ouch! You hurt my feelings They didn't take your money, you GAVE it to them!

And if this feature was the ONLY pressing feature on their to-do list the I would agree with you but clearly it is not. Describing the lack of implementation of this feature 'laziness' is, at best, childish.

As the 15C is a FC aircraft that really only leaves the Tomcat, it is a pity that the our F-16 doesn't fit the Aim 7 Sparrow era...

I am aware of that but it would seem to address many of the (many) shortcomings of ME and the last time I looked ED seemed quite happy with its direction.

I echo those who suggest CLICK SELECT DRAG/ MOVE multiple ground assets. I'm guessing this kind of overhaul of ME is on the back burner due to the imminent release of DCS Web Editor?

Lovely idea! I don't use SRS but if I speak as I'm flying my voice plays when I watch the track file, I'm guessing that doesn't happen with SRS audio?

As I'm sure you are aware, track files are notoriously unreliable, trying to include voice chat as well could well be a bridge too far. Growling Sidewinder records his tracks live, probably using Nvidia Geforce Experience or something similar. I use Geforce Experience to record the track the add any sound files afterwards using a video editor.

Do you mean the replay of the track file, like an automatic in-flight commentary of the flight?

I recently (yesterday) posted a problem concerning getting AI, be it wingmen or otherwise, to perform SEAD then attack a map object or a group or whatever. With forum help I discovered that making it a CAS mission and specifying that the AI attack the SAM group (actually attacking specified units is more successful) first , at waypoint 1 for example and the proceed to the other tasks was usually successful. It seems that labelling the mission SEAD causes problems. Hope this helps.

" In its most accurate mode, the JDAM system will provide a minimum weapon accuracy CEP of 16 feet (5 m) or less when a GPS signal is available." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Direct_Attack_Munition

Thank you! Exactly that. In fact I had to specify the SAM unit(s) to attack rather than the group and use CAS rather than SEAD then they successfully hit the second target with bombs, Great to know it is possible.

Here is a demo .trk to demonstrate what I mean - not only do they NOT do task 2 but the also deviate greatly from the stated waypoints! AI with 2 separate tasks.trk

In the ME I have set the mission to SEAD at waypoint 1. At waypoint 2 using ADVANCED WAYPOINT ACTIONS I have set PERFORM TASK - ATTACK MAP OBJECT. The aircraft have the appropriate ordnance for both tasks. SEAD is performed correctly the second task is ignored. It is quite possible that this is beyond the scope of AI in ME.

It is much easier to diagnose any potential problem if you supply the associated .trk file - I realise that if you experience a CTD the you have no track file.

The easiest way to test is to rename your mods folder to something else like MODSx then load the game and the see if everything works ok
