Assuming that nothing in the Mission Editor has been setup i.e. naming the Pilot something with 'RIO' in their playerName etc. Is it even possible from when they just into the back seat to know that they aren't the pilot from an onBirth or onEnterUnit event - obviously this is in MP or even dedicated server environment. -
I apologize if this topic has been covered elsewhere. I am a recent convert to the Tomcat - and specifically the "Bombcat" so I am not completely familiar yet with the model. I have, however, dropped a lot of iron bombs in DCS. I am trying to explore the edges of that envelope in the F-14 I am interested knowing how the RIO can contribute to ground attackin multicrew. I understand about using LANTIRN with GBU's. Are there other possibilities? For instance, can the RIO identify, track and designate targets wit the TCS that the pilot can then attack in CMPTR-TGT mode - rather than the pilot having to designate the target himself? Similarly, can a target designated with LANTIRN be attacked using unguided bombs in CMPTR-TGT mode? Thanks for any information you can provide.

WEW Lads are looking for new members!!! Aircrafts we fly: F/A-18, F14 Pilot/RIO, F15c, F15e Pilot/WSO, F16, and Mirage 2000. Requirements: Mic, 18+ (we can work 16+, but we will interview you), Be able to purchase maps like Syria/Nevada/Persian Gulf, If you fly F18 or F14 you must have Super Carrier, Be able to show up to missions We Are a NA based Squadron and our op times are at 9pm EST on Wednesdays. We also host Arma ops that correlate to the DCS ops every Thursday at 9pm EST. We do like to have fun and also randomly hold game nights to have fun. If you do wish to join the group keep please the time zone in mind as well as the following rules. Take Missions seriously and don't purposely throw the mission. While we are not a full blown realism unit, we would still qualify us as MilSim. Our playstyle is set up for people who want to fly a realistic campaign in DCS without joining a full blown realism unit. You will be expected to talk on the radio relatively correctly and to take the scenarios seriously. We will not have a rank structure nor a chain of command. Mods are simply around to moderate, not to boss you around. Before joining the Campaign please pick an aircraft you are willing to fully commit to. This should be an aircraft that you are either willing to learn or are already proficient in. This aircraft should also be something that you are willing to fly for the main campaigns in the group. Due to the nature of DCS we would prefer people to stick to an aircraft. That being said, there will be opportunities in fun events/side missions for people to fly other aircraft, as well as different campaigns that may require different aircraft. You will not be allowed to fly in the campaign unless you picked an aircraft ahead of time. Before playing the campaign with us you must complete a check flight. This is not a daunting task and we don't want to fail you. We just want to know that you are confident enough in your airframe to fly in a mission. We require an attendance rate of 2 Ops per month. If you do not meet this rate you will be removed from the group. There are obvious exceptions to this such as family issues/a college class that got scheduled for that time. We are not expecting you to sacrifice your real life for this group, but you joined the group to play, so play. People who have just joined and have not passed their check flight have 1 week to at least attempt a check flight (if no one can do your check flight in that week for some reason an exception will be made) if you do not pass this check flight, the week resets. Once again, we are not expecting you to sacrifice your real life for this group, but you joined to play. Squadron Website: http://www.wew-lads.com/ Squadron Discord: https://discord.gg/gs8HqSRE8w

I am doing this as RIO, Pilot saw them blinking as well. We would have targets that are 50+ nm out and when TWS auto would target them, they would be blinking. Based on what I read in the manual, they should blink when they are within 8 seconds of impact, see snip from manual below. I feel like I am missing something. Can someone please explain why the contact symbol is blinking when trying to lock them with TWS auto, also when an AM-54 was launched, it would not start a countdown or track the target at all. I would really appreciate some clarity, I hope it is something that I missed when reading the manual.

With a player RIO, and player pilot, in the F-14B, whenever the pilot attaches to the catapult, my game crashes 100% of the time. I found another threat regarding this problem on the F-14 forum, and someone told me to post my bug report here, as well. This does not happen to my friend, when I am the pilot and he is the RIO. Furthermore, if he connects to the catapult and THEN I issue a join request, I can join into the RIO seat and everything works fine, and we can play the game normally. The same is true when we respawn after a death directly onto the catapult. I don't know how the DCS log files work, but the most relevant message appears to be this: 2021-11-07 11:09:48.374 INFO EDCORE: F:\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\bin\Transport.dll 2021-11-07 11:09:48.386 INFO EDCORE: # C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at C701B000 00:00000000 Troubleshooting So Far: I've reinstalled the game. I've uninstalled the game, migrated my license to the standalone (Non-Steam) client, and reinstalled the game. I've tried using the file validation. I've uninstalled my graphics drivers, reinstalled them, and also tried rolling back to different versions. I've bought an entire new graphics card (1080 to 3080) I've uninstalled, and reinstalled DirectX We've tested all different catapults on the Stennis, and it occurs on all of them. I've tried with, and without SRS turned on and connected. I've tried on both day and night. dcs.log-20211107-112415.zip dcs.log-20211107-110948.zip

I'm just testing this module to see if I'd like to purchase but I don't see how anyone can enjoy it. The way it feels and the bugs, and Jester, why? It flies like bucket of bolts made of lead. The RIO Tutorial is missing the console buttons you have to press during the Tutorial? This is not a finished product, and puts shame to the F14, makes me cry inside a little as this is my ultimate favourite fighter aircraft IRL. Is anyone else having the same issues or shares the same views?

I been learning the F-14, and it is awesome but flying as a single guy is very complex as we all know. So I'm using Voice Attack to talk to jester and ask him to do things like "Change range to 100", "Select Waypoint 2", "Ground Stabilize", etc. The way I made it possible was making A LOT of macros in Voice Attack so that when I say "Stabilize Ground" VA executes: Press A (Open Jester Menu) Press LCtrl + 7 (Select TID Ground Stabilize) Press LCtrl + 1 (Select 15s) This works fine in some cases but then I have a huge problem. If I select A/G mode, and then say: "Stabilize Ground" the command executes but the menu of Jester now is different because now it shows me the menu options of Jester for air to ground. So If I am on Air to Ground, and tell jester with Voice Attack to "Stabilize Ground" it will execute the same commands as before but now it will eject my selected weapons! Because the menu of jester is not the same when you are air to ground than when you are air to air. Press A (Open Jester Menu. Now it opens the A/G Menu) Press LCtrl + 7 (Jettison Selected Weapons) Press LCtrl + 1 ( ) So I would like to know If there is any way to bind specific actions. For example bind Ctrl + 1, so jester can Change Radar to Range While Scan or Ctrl + 9 to Stabilize Ground, or select active ordnance, or any option in the Jester menu. I know maybe HB doesn't want it to be this way because then people might just bind everything and fly the tomcat without needing a RIO. But having a jester menu is the same, just that the process takes longer and people like me who want to use voice commands for a more realistic interaction can't do so, or have many problems in the process. I don't know if HB will read my message, but please allow us to bind any action in the controls or at least to bind direct access to A/A menu and A/G menu separately. Thanks! -edit- I know there are some bindings available right now, such as those of changing range, selecting waypoint and aircraft stabilize, but these are just the basic ones. It would be pretty helpful to have access to all of the jester options. -- -
As the title suggests I’m an avid F14B pilot and I love using Vaicom and Voiceattack with Nester and AIRIO but it’s time to take it to the next step. I feel I’m ready to crew up with a human RIO flying with me in the back seat. I usually fly after 3:00pm or after 6:30pm most nights Brisbane time. I love to fly in Through The Inferno and the many random missions that can happen. If you are a RIO in training or are interested in learning the F14B RIO seat than please PM me. I’m on steam but I own the non steam and steam version(although all my modules are the non steam modules). I’ve been flying for years and hundreds if not thousands of hours mainly in the A10C, F16, F18, Viggen, F14, JF-17 and Mirage 2000C. look forward to hearing from you! Lets kick the tyres and light the fires!

What does the AWG9 want to tell me when the RDROT light flashes? And is that also related to the me in the PD-STT the TID display of the lock disappears?

I tried to play with it or find tutorials, How does it work? -
Hello I want to try and get into flying as the rio but non of my friends play dcs. I was wondering if anyone needed a RIO or could help me a bit in learning the rio roll. I'm very proficient in the front seat and have a good general knowledge of most systems.
