  1. Requires a bit of math in your head. You know your own position to the B/E (hopefully), so you should be able to estimate a bandit's position in relation to the B/E. It hasn't to be exact, just give your buddies / playmates an idea where to point their radars.
  2. Best method would be to use a common known reference point, a Bullseye. You then report the enemy position like this [your callsign], Bandit bullseye 220 25, hot, high Means there is a bandit contact from bullseye 220 degrees, distance to bullseye 25 NM, he is approaching (hot) and flying high. A more broad way to tell you buddies would be [your callsign], Bandit bullseye northeast, range estimated 30, hot, high You should train this procedure first with GCI/AWACS support, later without.
  3. Lock-On Modern Air Combat (LOMAC) is the original, first version. Two patches available, latest version 1.02. Stand-alone simulation, runs out-of-the-box. Flaming Cliffs is an add-on to LOMAC. Needs LOMAC installation as a requirement. Several patches available, latest version 1.12b. Flaming Cliffs 2 is a new version of the add-on, also needs LOMAC installation as requirement. Compatible with the first module of the LOMAC successor Digital Combat Simulation (DCS) Black Shark (helicopter simulation, Russian KA-50).
  4. Interesting that the pilot wears a German Air Force leather jacket. I didn't recognize this guy, but I'll bet that he is a former NVA pilot.

  5. As Crunch indicated, you were not using a simple compass, but the HSI. Probably you selected a beacon (VOR) that was on the opposite side of you and your targets (you yourself between targets and VOR), and the indication of your HSI confused you by that. See the HSI description in your handbook: "The Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) provides a top/down view of the aircraft in relation to the intended course. The compass rotates so that the current heading is always shown at the top. The Programmed Course Arrow shows the required heading to reach your route leg and the Next Waypoint pointer indicates the direction to your selected waypoint. " See for a good explanation of the HSI and other instruments.
  6. 78. Taking a phone call while on an ILS approach (final) 79. Spilling a beer over your keyboard while in a dogfight 80. Your wife called third time for lunch (angry) while you fight a pair of 51st pilots and already survived for 2 minutes...
  7. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=54353&page=4 "Graphic option has been disable since ED made some change a few years ago. At the same time, locfg was released and did the job very well. So Skypat didn't work on that part. That part would come back maybe with DCS A10. " This was posted in May 2010, but I think it is still valid.

  10. You have to install it with ModMan 7.2 or later. Be sure you make a backup of all files as suggested in the ReadMe file. You can DL ModMan from here: http://www.virtual-jabog32.de/index.php?section=downloads&subcat=32&file=1157
  11. In a LO mis file, the routing points look like this: </RoutePoints><Positions><Position ID="1" Latitude="-74114.3984375" Longitude="-31657.185546875" Altitude="700"/> In a FC2 miz file, it could be this: 2î{*þ`Á<»OtZ*·^œÑjYÃA›r€dÀ%“d(•Ò_ÖW¾Ì‘Ë—¯“[W`\+!MIãY��r .l¨Tågé+_lÛx4´Aj!K-X£„ÕJúÆì–kÒ¬RëåkÝó-[÷VКi2›T9ûK¸`EE)û˳·ë�·n~ EJ9bÉÝÑX3 Xä¥Ì/oë ·½^Z‚ä4]Påà(m±†]nwôõ�o]ÀÐj‘,·`(]3 -M9rÂ�ú¸ýG_ëÄÖÍ/ Ê2TXr�Æ8ÙqÊ÷€vuå¸å ¶m� So, again, I see no way to accomplish your goal.
  12. I would say no. The different versions of LO and LO FC are not compatible, and a vanilla LO mission will not run (properly) in LO FC 1, if at all.
  13. Dear friends, modern-air-combat.de has gone offline on 31 Dec 2010. Because the CRT is a subforum, it has to be moved into another location in order to survive the final shutdown.. Please visit the CRT at http://www.crc-mindreader.de/CRT/index.php and change your bookmarks accordingly. Best regards, Raven
  14. 1. If you have finished your setup, make a recovery DVD with an image that you can import in the future - saves hours of work ;-) 2. Keep you Antivir software updated and don't DL and install crap software from the internet from sites that you don't know / can't trust. Your system was hacked for a reason.... 3. Set a restore point once you installed new software. If the installation fails, you can reverse it easily.
  15. Das liegt an der Datenbank. Sie muesste mit dem Zeichensatz http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8859-1 Latin-1 kodiert sein, ist sie aber nicht. Da das Forum moeglicherweise eine einzige Datenbank fuer alle Unterforen nutzt, hat man wohl als Kompromiss auf die Kodierung nach Latin-1 verzichtet. Daher unser 'deutsches Problem'. Abhilfe: Schreibt Umlaute als ae, oe und ue, und nutzt die Vorschau (Preview) vor dem posten, dann klappt's mit der Lesbarkeit.
  16. Da es wohl keinen Bedarf mehr fuer ein Spezialforum gibt, das sich mit der Weiterentwicklung von Mods und Skins fuer Lock-On/FC/DCS beschaeftigt, wurde mangels Aktivitaeten das Forum http://www.simmodders.org geschlossen. Der Versuch, an die alten Erfolge und die Relevanz von Sim-Mod anzuknuepfen, ist damit gescheitert. Ich danke allen Mitgliedern und Gaesten fuer die Treue und wuensche ein frohes, neues Jahr 2011.
  17. We are sorry, simmodders.org is no longer available. http://www.simmodders.org The idea to bring back the old Sim-mod site has not worked out. Due to inactivity, this site was closed on 31.12.2010.
  18. Liebe Freunde, Wie angekuendigt, wird heute das Forum modern-air-combat.de nach 1176 Tagen vom Netz genommen. Weitere Einzelheiten zu den Gruenden findet Ihr auf der Startseite der Forums http://www.modern-air-combat.de. Der Commanders Round Table (CRT) wird bis auf weiteres unter dem bekannten Link zur Verfuegung stehen: http://www.modern-air-combat.de/CRT/ Ich danke allen Mitgliedern und Gaesten fuer die Treue und wuensche Euch alles Gute und weiterhin viel Spass mit Lock-On, FC und/oder der DCS-Serie.

  19. Have you tried to run it in compability mode (XP, Vista) ? Right klick on the exe and select under properties-> compabillity
  20. Probably a flood ? :megalol:
  21. Disable it ? HUD's are supposed to be as transparent as possible.
  22. I'm with your project as time permitts. You can start by saving the data listed here, because the site will be closed soon. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=51507
