The Cabin Pressure binding for NORMAL is incorrect. "Cabin Pressure Switch - NORMAL" Functions the same as "Cabin Pressure Switch - Defog Only" "Down" Maps to "NORMAL" in the cockpit. So use down

Hello, I apologize if this issue has already been reported before. According to my tests, the problem is common to all Mirage F1 modules and in the case of the BE model, the incidence occurs in both cockpits. Action bindings: TACAN mode selector - Clockwise TACAN mode selector - Counterclockwise Erroneous behavior detected: Using these assignments, either with the controller buttons or with the keyboard keys, when reaching the extreme positions (OFF - A/A) the TACAN mode selector is locked in them. In these extreme positions, only the mouse can be used to change the position of the knob. This behavior is reproduced in the latest version of DCS without mods, after doing a slow repair and creating a new configuration within saved games. Best regards

My first post I'm having a rough time with the TGP, especially with resetting the view forward. I've been reading a lot and pressing the snow plow button on the MFD is part of the answer. But I can't get it mapped to a button on my hotas? I would love that. If its already possible , forgive me , but do tell..

Hello! Just starting with the very basics on the F-4: mapping controls Although I usually play in VR, I sometimes play also in 2D. When mapping the "Zoom view" control to one of my HOTAS secondary axes, I find it works in the pilot cockpit, but not in the WSO seat. The PoV setting works fine in both cockpits. Any reason for this? I haven't found a separate zoom control anywhere. Thanks!

One thing that the modules are missing are a series of additional keybinds that takes advantage of individual players' HOTAS setups. Not everyone has a button in the right place, and some of us don't have any three position switches at all. I think that this is a missed opportunity to make the F1 an easier plane to configure for HOTAS inputs. Here's an example of what I'm talking about: I was practicing aerial refueling today in the F1EE. In the real world, I'd keep my right hand on the flight stick and keep my eyes on the tanker while I feel for the refueling guard switch, and push the underlying switch forward. When I'm done, I again use my left hand to feel for the switch and guard and drop both. Since we aren't actually in F1 cockpits, you have only two options: you look down and fumble with the mouse to click the guard and the switch individually. Depending on your zoom, you might have to try multiple times. Keep in mind that you're in formation with a tanker and one or more of your wingmen, so a moment of you being heads-down could mean the difference between being alive one moment and collision the next. The alternative is to use keyboard or HOTAS bindings. HOTAS is preferred, since there are no native keyboard mappings for the refueling system and the keyboard is cluttered with bindings already. If you're going to have to use bindings, to perform the above workflow you'd have to give up FOUR bindings. One to open the guard, one to push the refueling switch forward, one to push the refueling switch back, and one to close the guard. Given differences between people's setups, that's not realistic to expect people to dedicate that many bindings, since there are many switches that can be time critical (in the sense that you need to do something very quickly but you can't take your eyes off of the HUD). Speaking for myself, I'd have to dedicate four switches to the refueling system- and my setup only has four! These switches are Up = Pressed continuously and Down = unpressed. If changes are made, we can cut down the number of binds to just two: the ability for one bind to do two actions each. There are two ways of doing this: 1. Implement a ON else OFF-style bindings. Imagine a simple switch like I have. I'd like to be able to flip my switch up and have the refueling guard go forward and up. When I flip that switch back, the guard returns to its back and closed position. Since the switch holds the input continuously, I don't need to hold down anything to keep the guard forward. 2. Implement toggle buttons. While not ideal for my setup, other players will appreciate it, too. Some players may want to map the refueling guard cover to a pushbutton. Holding down a pushbutton isn't feasible, so this should instead be a simple toggle. Press it once, the guard flips open. Press it again, it closes. Simple. I think that all switches/toggles/guards should get this treatment. However, in the interest of focusing on the ones I feel are important, I've made a list to help. By no means is this list supposed to be exhaustive. It's focused on mappings that otherwise require excessive bindings and may be used in critical stages of a flight, such as in combat or while in formation. A summary: X else Y - When pressed, is in state X. If not pressed, will give state Y A/B - When pressed, toggles from state A to state B. When pressed again, goes from state B back to state A. ***All Airframes (F1CE, F1BE, F1EE, Presumably F1M as well)*** Master Arm switchology: Armament Master Switch Guard: Open Else Closed Armament Master Switch Guard: Closed Else Open Armament Master Switch Guard: OPEN/CLOSE Armament Master Switch: On Else Off Armament Master Switch: Off Else On Armament Master Switch: ON/OFF Armament Panel: Auto/Manual Firing Selector switch - AUTO else MAN Auto/Manual Firing Selector switch - MAN else AUTO Auto/Manual Firing Selector switch - MAN/AUTO Bomb/Rocket selector - 1+2/INBD/OUTBD Bomb/Rocket selector - INBD/OUTBD Fuselage Bombs Pushbutton - ON else OFF Fuselage Bombs Pushbutton - OFF else ON Wing bombs pushbutton - ON else OFF Wing bombs pushbutton - OFF else ON Fore/Aft selector switch: AFT else FWD Fore/Aft selector switch: FWD else AFT Fore/Aft selector switch: FWD/AFT MATRA 550 or Sidewinder Missile Switch: ON else OFF MATRA 550 or Sidewinder Missile Switch: OFF else ON Stores Jettison: Selective Jettison button guard - OPEN else ClOSE Selective Jettison button guard - CLOSE else OPEN Selective Jettison button guard - OPEN/CLOSE Emergency Jettison button guard - OPEN else ClOSE Emergency Jettison button guard - CLOSE else OPEN Emergency Jettison button guard - OPEN/CLOSE ***F1EE-specific*** Refueling: Transfer/Filling switch guard - Open Else Closed Transfer/Filling switch guard - Closed Else Open Transfer/Filling switch guard - OPEN/CLOSED Transfer/Filling switch - REMP.

In multiplayer, when WSO creates SAR Radar map, it causes a CTD for Pilot.
