donw43 Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 I'm dying to fly in this space, but just can't seem to get into a cockpit. Be gentle guys.. I'm not a regular user of DCS, so any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Normandy and the assets appear to be installed. So how do I go about making, starting a simple mission to just look around in.
Kayos Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Mission Editor, select new and choose Normandy as the map. Add a plane and go for a fly. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
FragBum Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 But if you want to fly the plane or heli you need to select "player" as well otherwise you just watch the AI fly the aircraft. Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment. Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above. Currently rolling with a Asus Z390 Prime, 9600K, 32GB RAM, SSD, 2080Ti and Windows 10Pro, Rift CV1. bu0836x and Scratch Built Pedals, Collective and Cyclic.

And thanks everyone for the help.. much appreciated :helpsmilie: Edit Found the "Player" skill selection, but it is only available in a-10c, p51.. but not in spitfire.

donw43 Posted May 31, 2017 Author Posted May 31, 2017 OMG.. thats all there is to it? Guess I have some planes to buy! Thanks everyone :)

All I have found for a description is.. "provides numerous World War II air, land and sea assets to populate the Normand and other DCS World maps" Which led me to believe their were aircraft included?

MMM Well there is a B17 Bomber but mostly AA guns and tanks vehicles ships and such. See here for the details Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment.

Popchar Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Yes there is aircraft included but not for flying with. Okay you are right, for a beginner this is a bit confusing. The Assets Pack only expands the standard capabilities that would be boring or not really WWII-like without the pack. With the pack you have more possibilities to expand your scenario. However, there are no flyable planes included. You have to buy them in eShop separately. Only the Mustang and the SU-25 is for free.

donw43 Posted May 31, 2017 Author Posted May 31, 2017 So is there...or is there not.. a flyable B-17 bomber? If so, don't think I've seen it avail.
Kayos Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 So is there...or is there not.. a flyable B-17 bomber? If so, don't think I've seen it avail. The B-17 is not flyable. Hopefully one day it will be :) It is AI only. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
donw43 Posted May 31, 2017 Author Posted May 31, 2017 Made it into a flight, thanks to all of you! Added my Mustang into a bombing mission shared in this forum. Flew alongside a few B-17s once they got airborne. Very cool! Now just need to learn how to fire guns.
