Nealius Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 These three lights never go out and I don't know if it's a bug or if I am missing something. I am following Chuck's guide when starting up and in his screenshots these three lights are off, yet on my bird they are constantly on.
Charly_Owl Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Is your landing gear retracted? The landing gear lever is not animated btw (RAZBAM said that they are working on it). Chuck's DCS Tutorial Library Chuck's Guides on Mudspike Chuck's Youtube Channel Chuck's Patreon
Nealius Posted December 29, 2015 Author Posted December 29, 2015 Yes, LG is retracted. These three lights are on for the entire duration of flight.

So you might have your toe brake axes reversed in the Control Options. The CROSS light would be for hydraulic crossfeed failure. Is your emergency hydraulic switch ON? On the screenshot you posted your landing gear lights (green) are OFF. In order to troubleshoot your problem we'd need to see exactly what you are doing (basically how you start the airplane). You probably forgot something. Chuck's DCS Tutorial Library Chuck's Guides on Mudspike Chuck's Youtube Channel Chuck's Patreon
OnlyforDCS Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Neaulius give as a screenshot of your master warning lights panel. It's the panel on the right side, vertical, right under the battery switch. That would be really helpful to see if you missed something somewhere.

Azrayen Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Nealius, I got that too (not always) and yes I think it's a bug, but I didn't had time to check it toroughsly. The CROSS light would be for hydraulic crossfeed failure. Is your emergency hydraulic switch ON? No, CROSS is short for Crosse = emergency hook (to be mounted instead of parachute or supplementary decoys launcher under the back of the fuselage).

The CROSS light would be for hydraulic crossfeed failure. Is your emergency hydraulic switch ON? Negative on the toe breaks, they work as they should. Emergency Hyd. switch is ON.

That would be really helpful to see if you missed something somewhere. The enunciator panel is all good. No lights.
Azrayen Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) An interesting (related) remark on an (unrelated) topic: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2620479#post2620479 If AJaromir got it right, the "trigger" for the bug would be having any payload loaded. Not @ home, can't confirm now. ++ Az' Edited December 29, 2015 by Azrayen typo
Nealius Posted December 29, 2015 Author Posted December 29, 2015 It also occurs on a clean airframe for me. Clean except for chaff/flare and guns. Here is a video of my ramp start. I don't believe I am missing anything listed in Chuck's guide but I am out of order. The airplane also acts as if brakes are engaged when I taxi, but the parking break is off and my rudder pedal toe brakes work as they should (you can see me test them while taxiing). 3m832XnSn3w
Zeus67 Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 It is a bug caused by the lights test. You test the lights, but this group does not turn off upon test switch release. I missed that. 1 "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." "The three most dangerous things in the world are a programmer with a soldering iron, a hardware type with a program patch and a user with an idea."
JayRoo Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 i confirm what Zeus says, it happens after you do a signal lights test
