PiedDroit Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 NEZ is not a French term[...] Germans are funny guys too A good pun with nez (nose in french) is waiting to happen. I'll let my pun-background-process find something one day, not easy. "D". It's in the options as "Special Modes Deselect" in the HOTAS category, and on page 92 of the manual. For info, I had been using mapping the 3 radar modes control as described in the manual in the HOTAS sections: 'V', 'D' and 'O'. I noticed that when switching to 530D the radar retained the special mode from close combat configuration but everytime 'D' got me back to normal mode. It looks like a little bug to me, I suppose the radar should go back to normal mode when selecting the 530 (edit - or let us activate the special modes when 530D is selected?)
ADMIRALAION Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 When starting up I am unable to throttle up or transition into ground idle. What am i missing? I am using mouse and keyboard because i am on vacation and I am dying to test this baby out.
nomdeplume Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 When starting up I am unable to throttle up or transition into ground idle. What am i missing? I am using mouse and keyboard because i am on vacation and I am dying to test this baby out. It seems like the keyboard bindings for some things (including thrust/throttle) don't work. Unless you can find some kind of controller to bind the "Thrust" axis to, you're probably out of luck for now. :(
ADMIRALAION Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Thank you i can at least rest easy for now knowing the problem and that there is a solution.
winchesterdelta1 Posted December 27, 2015 Author Posted December 27, 2015 Thank you it worked. Go in close, and when you think you are too close, go in closer.
Pizzasalladland Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Okay this thread seems to have become an open thread with all problems, so i start with the most basic problem of all... Where do i find the manual? I have the WIP-manual already downloaded, but i guess it's more than fair to switch to a more updated one by now! Thx! I really learn a lot from these threads. Lockon/DCS forums... where have you been all my life?

T0x1s Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Do anyone have some tips on just dogfighting and using the missiles? I know how to use everything but not in an effective way and as a new A2A pilot its even harder. No matter what I try I always get shot down. Would love some tips and how you guys do it :)

Scottvdken Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Hopefully someone can enlighten me. Often (multiplayer) when looking at my radar, I see targets jumping around. I cannot get even a TWS lock on them. Are these targets jamming? If so, does the Mirage have the capability to lock onto a jamming target? If not, what is going on? .

jojo Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 When you have contact without closing velocity these are fake contacts due to jamming. V2.3 = real contact V = fake contact Mirage fanatic !

V2.3 = real contact V = fake contact Ok, so I should still be able to lock onto the real contact (with velocity)? .

sedenion Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Hey, with a friend we are stuck on a very simple task ... How do you make your plane able to turn on the taxi ( INSER button on A10-c ) ? There is only the wheel brake option . Thx ... hit S key to toggle nose wheel steering... (IFF interrogation in flight)
jojo Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Ok, so I should still be able to lock onto the real contact (with velocity)? Yes. But maybe not at max detection range. As a side not, this closing velocity next to the contact is useful to assess priorities. If your speed is M0.9 and the contact shows V1.2, It's probably not a direct threat (slow mover OR not flying toward you. Because the closing velocity depends on your speed, the contact speed and target aspect. If you see V1.8, the contact is probably flying head on toward you, so it's the first you have to deal with. It's like "Range While Scan" + "Velocity Search" on the same display. Mirage fanatic !

RastahMan Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Ok, so I should still be able to lock onto the real contact (with velocity)? You should be able but keep in mind you need to be closer to enemy to burn through jamming. Just fly in direction of jamming.
Dark acs Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Can somebody please help me cycle radar modes? I don't know how to get into cac mode and have to manually ck everything. In order to successfully "play" DCS, you need: 1. A Supercomputer 2. The budget of the US department of defense
