  1. I found that in the campaign for F 15 c in Flaming Cliffs and the mission called "Bear Trap", nothing up front works. I can start the engines and take off but then nothing else works. There does not seem to be any controls for switching on electrics. the radar will not switch on and I'm flying blind. Is this just a bug ? or am I missing something here?:helpsmilie:
  2. Start up cheat Don't know what I'm doing right this time but remapping worked. Thanks:thumbup:
  3. Ok, I know, but really cannot take time to go through the whole start up sequence and prefer the L/windows-home route. I recently bought a Cougar gaming keyboard which lacks the L/window key and in spite of using "Sharpkey" to remap, it didn't work within the game! If anyone has had a similar problem and knows of a solution, please, please let me know.:cry:
  4. Thanks for the quick and helpful reply. After installing games, I always put a shortcut on the desktop and never start anything from the start menu. So, voila, there it was and it worked perfectly. I now have both of the versions running, although for some reason the Nevada scenery has gone from incredible to dark and dingy? There is also black marks around the edges of the canopy. This is since the last big update.Has anyone else seen this happen and if so, what is the problem?:thumbup:
  5. repair Where in the installation is this link you call repair? I haven't found any such link. Both Alpha and Beta refuse to load since the latest update. I just have gigabytes of games that don't work at all. And I might add, very expensive too.
  6. Yes ,"Old Guy" I do follow you. Whenever I assign a new action I always delete the multiple entries. I mean, that I often see that an axis action is put on all the three connected controllers, joystick, throttle and rudder. Why it does this is beyond me. By the by, I'm 73, and still paragliding, that's real flying but not as complicated!
  7. How Thanks for your replies, however how can this happen? I know exactly how to set my axes and always delete the assignments that are set across the three pieces of hardware, Joystick, throttle and rudder, by the game itself.
  8. First, let me say that this massive update is mind blowing. However, I've found some peculiar behaviour taking place. Whenever I:joystick: apply speed or throttle back, the plane loses all control and I have to fight to maintain forward flight. It's like I was applying right rudder. This is happening on all the planes in Alpha. I fly with a warthog hotas, badly!
  9. Thanks guys, worked a friggin treat. All done and loving it!" Just a note, why didn't the "Expert" who replied to my ticket, reporting this, know anything about it and in fact said that I must have signed in with a different key?
  10. Have downloaded and installed 1.5 successfully, however after downloading my planes they would not install. Wrong version! The only version I see on the site are 1.2.16.43180.9.9, they should be 1.5.2.48162. I am stuck and not getting any help after starting a ticket. Can anyone please confirm that there is indeed a later version, or have they yet to be unveiled
  11. I bought a boxed DCS black Shark some two years ago. Why doesn't it install and play without having to use Dcs world? I just want to fly around and blow up things with:cry:out all the rest of the setup. Which I have by the way. Although I can install it and it does show in the full game, the given serial is not accepted?
  12. Due to a computer glitch I have lost some of my license files, how can I retrieve them?
  13. This is my download list. Is anything wrong?
  14. :doh:DCS World update 1.2.16.38741.722.423. After hours downloading at snails pace due to living in rural france and following instructions to the letter,the game refuses to install. When I click the "exe" file, the process starts, then it states..." setup needs next disk", please insert disk1 and click ok. "If the files can be found in a folder other than the one displayed below, enter the correct path or click browse. All the files are in the one folder. What the hell can I do?
  15. Recently downloaded two files for Target script editor. A tmc file which was inputed, the other is a direct x key, I have no idea where this is supposed to go. Would some kind expert please help?:helpsmilie:
  16. Jib, have seen your setup and have decided to do the same. Unfortunately I am not having much luck setting it up. I have successfully set up the Admin but unable to use TouchControl because I cannot enable the IRCommand2 interface. I have bought the upgrade but don't know how to enable it. I also bought the IRTrans and Autohotkey, God knows where they reside. Would you be so kind and give me some pointers in the right direction before I throw my ipad in the bin. Thanks in anticipation.
  17. Why would I need Arduino2DCS? This is kind of expensive. Is it absolutely necessary.
  18. This is very strange. Since the last big update a headless pilot is inhabiting the Black shark. Unfortunately his body is in the way of switches I need to access to start up. This is very frustrating and I can find no solution to the problem. If anyone can show me a workaround, I would be most grateful.:megalol:
  19. Thanks Boltz, looks very interesting. Is there only support for the A-10 or can you switch aircraft? Also is it relatively easy to set up? I'm 72 but still flying.
  20. I am not the brightest star in the universe when it comes to computing. I am desperately trying to set up my pc and Ipad for the "Touch control interface. However I am floundering under pages of text and have no idea what to do next. So far I have got the Touch control admin set up and Trying to figure out the Touch control server. I also purchased the "IrCommand2, Autohotkey,and IrTrans" but have no idea where the actually reside. If any kind pilot would care to enlighten me in simple terms, step by step, I would gladly send him a Christmas card in due course.:helpsmilie::helpsmilie::helpsmilie:
  21. Well thanks all you "Aces", obviously too lowly a question, worthy of your time?
  22. Mustang takeoff Sorry if this is in the wrong place or has already been covered. When I try to take off in game mode, engine running; after releasing brake and increasing throttle, the plane won't move. Please, I'm no master of the sky,:helpsmilie: just want to toottle around and shoot the guns, then land.
