F15C ILD Hud Symbology - Manual v Actual

[DerekSpeare]

Hi all,

 

I'm pretty new to DCS. The Flaming Cliffs manual shows large (and presumably dynamic) localizer and glideslope indicator when the F15 is in ILS Mode. However, when actually flying the plane (DCS v1.5.2) the markers for the localizer and glideslope are not there, those being replaced by a small "+" sign.

 

While I can land the plane looking at the ADI/ILS, what does one do to bring up the markers on the HUD to make this task easier?

 

Thanks for any help! :thumbup:

 

NB - the HUD graphic is attached below for reference.

That is the old, pre-FC3 implementation of ILS.

 

AFAIK the current one is more realistic, otherwise it wouldn't have been changed I think.

Thank you - the manual I have is specifically entitled "Lock On Flaming Cliffs 3", however.

Yes, but the manual in this case is outdated. Much of the FC3 manual still uses FC2 documentation.

You cannot bring this display up; it has been eliminated and replaced with the actual F-15's implementation, which is to fly you FPV onto the ILS cross. As mentioned, the manual is not correct.
