  1. Sorry for my late response.  Thanks.  I managed to get the connection working.  But every now and then I think Windows shuts down the USB port in my NVIDIA card.  A few reboots, or complete unplug and power down, seems to get it up and running again.  A nuisance to say they least!

  2. Very weird fault.  I flew Raven One campaign mission 2 last night,  I got a draw when my wingman buggered off by himself after the AAR so I returned to mother.  Logbook showed no flight hours, but did capture the additional mission flown, my 2 AARs and the trap.  This is the second time I tried the mission with the same result; as soon as Smoke finishes on the tanker he does not follow me to WP4.  I try to call him but it does not show that I have a wingman in my comms menu.  Is anyone seeing other in mission affects by the latest update?

    It's somewhat true for the Tomcat. They will launch you when you're ready on the cat and switch on the external lights at night. But it's bind triggered here, not lights on condition, ie. if you set your nav lights as off on the panel and turn on the ext. lights with the pinky, there won't be any actual light but the deck crew will launch you anyway.

    There's also special option that allows you to just use the salute bind and it'll turn on the lights at night automatically.

     

     An interesting work around.  I will fiddle with Hornet pre-selects.  Bit of a distractor from realism somewhat.  Rainy weekend ahead means no yardwork, so I may have the chance to experiment a bit.

    Only the Tomcat currently supports this feature. Not sure it ever worked with the Hornet.

    Ahh, thanks for the clarity.  I fly Hornets mainly, and am still on a shallow learning curve for the Big Cat from time to time, and have not gone to the boat yet!

    I hope the capability gets transferred over to the Hornet eventually

    Cheers

  5. I put in the wish list that I would like the night launch salute to be initiated by the pilot turning on nav lights with the pinky switch on the throttles.  I received the response from ED that this is already implemented in Supercarrier.  True?  Doesn't work for me; I still have to use "salute" in the drop down menu to initiate the launch.

  6. Three off the top of my add.  Others please chime in ....

    1.  ZIPLIP Case 1 recovery procedures

    2. Ability to request touch and go's

    3. Night ops - Turn on nav lights as nighttime salute procedure.

    4. Logbook differentiate between traps and shore landings (you can train a monkey to land ashore ...)

    Yours Aye
