  1. Thank you very much WizzRD. Much appreciated
  2. Apparently not. Thats the first thing I tried, but no joy
  3. Hello Everyone. Not sure where to post this so sorry if its the wrong forum. Im trying to find the latest vesion of the Frenchpack for use in DCS Liberaition with my shiny new M200C . Anyideas where i can find the latest version.
  4. I seem to now have problems getting the jeff started from a cold start, even if I follow carefully Chucks guide (including removing the ladder and covers). Is there a totally reliable checklist for cold starts now ?
  5. Yes I have seen the radar videos . In the example I have give I was co altitude. Ill try some more and exreiment with radar modes . Thanks for the reply, Aeria Gloria C
  6. Hmnn.. OK I was flying on the marianas map trying to lock up an AI F15c, and could not pick him up at all on the radar . I was using RWS and TWS . We were approaching head on and he gets a aim120b off before I can even pick him up on radar. Clean weather conditions over the sea about 7000 feet. Is this me or the radar ?? seems very poor performance... Ill try using VS to pick him up next time
  7. @Flappie Ill give that a try thanks. @Silverdevil Just crashes at the splash screen at start up Lets see if the MB 339 does the trick...
  8. Same here, Im not so hot on reading LOóg files. I did however update my video and sound card drivers. I even did a new clean install of DCS. Crashes on splash screen . Any advice greatfully received Regards & Thanks C. dcs.log dcs.log.old
  9. Hi everyone Im sure its my lack of knowledge but I am struggling to get a lock/firing solutions on the Nasam tracking/search radar when in SP mode using the otherwise pretty good LD10. Does anyone have a simple SOP for dealing with them? they shoot down all my stand off glide munitions aswell. C
  10. I am looking forward to this plane very much indeed. I have a couple of questions, which I have not been able to resolve myself: 1) Sustained turn rate. Should the 23 be able to change its flaps/wing angle to increase its turn rate in broadly the same way that the F14 seems to do ? 2) If so is that a viable tactic in a merge / dogfight ? Thanks in advance C
  11. Am I right in thinking that if you have not bought the F4 (when it comes out) that the Phantom models flown by the AI will be upgraded ? Right now they are very old and low res. That seems to be the case with other planes... Obviously you would need to have an updated DCS release to change them. Thanks in advance ! C
  12. Hi Everyone. I have been having a great time with my Liberation campaigns, but have one problem. I set mission time in the slider to 45 or 60 minutes depending on how much time I have. I usually assign all the missions myself and have noticed that in the first third of the campaign the enemy will spam SEAD and DEAD missions that arrive around/near the end of the period designated in the slider. This means my Cap has been used up or if its in the air, is miles away in the opposite direction and never intercepts in time and I keep losing my sam air defense. AS a strategy I have started scheduling my cap flights really late and using fighter sweeps to the front line to have a better chance that the planes are in the right place when the Sead/Dead spam arrives. I also usually try a suicide mission to hit the runways early on to give me some breathing space. I usually play as opfor so my adversary has pretty good ARM weapons. So my questions are 1 Does that slider make a difference to enemy tasking? 2 Are Sead Dead always scheduled after Cap and CAS missions by the Program ? Looks that way. Any advice greatfully received. I'm now beginning to appreciate the problems that GCI organisation / doctrine seeks to address. C
