Does anybody know how can I export MFD screens to another display? Is it possible at all?

Pretty sure I did this in the previous version, while I can't remember if I had to manually edit the corresponding files.

@nibbylot, are exports enabled by default or do we have to edit the files if exports are at all possible? 

Cheers!

Don't see your problem. For me it was a nice touchdown. Couldn't see your weight, maybe a litte bit heavy.

I only got 50 marks  and that was a better take... Yes, the CASE 1 Trainer gave the plane a bit too much fuel.

Struggling with the comms.  Will take any advice.  You can see my cold start below.  I have bound Comm 1 and 2 depress as well as the old "comms" menu button. No dice.  Once I get airborne, I cannot get the menu to come up at all, even using the keyboard.  I feel like I have the radios turned on correctly.  Has anyone else run into this issue? I want to be able to call inbound on the carrier.

Try enabling Easy Comms temporarily? The Communications Menu keybind will for sure not work in the air, as I'm sure you already know, without Easy Comms enabled.

Fix on the previous page. See my post there.

Hi, Thanks for the 1.2 Update, However, I cannot take off from a runway, winds up to 150 kts, pull the stick back, Nothing-nada, not a pretence at nose up....

So switch to flying overhead on start up, no problem, responsive in all axis.....any ideas

Hotas joystic/throttle system.

any assitance appreciated, no rush I'm a pensioner I'm sure there are other snags in front of me

Well, extremely stupid question here. You have setup/bound your controls in the Controls Settings?

run the mission again, when you exit the mission there is a button to "save track file", attach that file here to take a look at your issue

Hey guys,

This is truly a very good mod and I’m enjoying it. Thank you.

I would request that for the next update, if the interior lights could be mapped to rotary dials. As of now, the light’s brightness and dimming are only mapped to axis/ potentiometer style controls. Thank you.

Rudel, I hope your medical procedure went well and good work on the training missions.

thank you, yes everything went well, my right eye was done last May and now the left eye was done as well. Next month I will have a last control and will then be given a prescription for reading glasses, for driving I won’t be needing glasses anymore , so really happy about the whole thing.

There are not stupid questions, Yes I had the previous version, I just installed the new one, changed nothing and that has worked previously. And the a/c flies great if I start in the air.

[flyingscotsman]

Hi Rudel,

               Thank you for the offer, Track file attached. I confirm I have checked my bindings cannot see anything else using the joystick setting and its pitch, that is not working on take off. I have yanked the stick a bit and it blacked me out, never seen that before. It flies fine if started in the air.

No rush, I have to go out for a while .

Thank you

I haven't flown the new version yet, and not the old version in a while so I can't test myself.

Totally anecdotal, but I can't really remember the cold start procedure, while one thing I often forget in the MB-339, is releasing the "stick lock" when doing cold starts. There's nothing similar in the checklist, according to @Minsky's excellent one, which I read through now. I wonder, if one doesn't press the hydraulic reset. What happens?

Just saw you posted a track, so I'm sure someone will figure it out before you get home. .

Cheers!

Bug with speed. At the exit from the loop, the speed is 1.5 mach

Could you please reproduce it in a clean mission? I doubt anyone would bother finding and installing all these mods. Not to say that any of them could potentially conflict with the Goshawk.

Nothing, it's there to reset the HYD warning.

+1 ... I wasn't able to load the Track   ... the first step before reporting a bug, is to make sure you are using a clean DCS with just the single T-45 Mod loaded.

[Minsky]

I'm trying to record a track but it comes out bugged.

Moving the finger lift is not recorded, so on the replay aircraft takes off with its engine off, and is essentially uncontrollable upon taking control.

Just a few words after flying v1.2 to say thank you again to everyone who worked on this update!  I am very impressed with the update, and it fits perfectly with the latest update of DCS.  The quality of the mod is significantly improved and is now up to speed with the current implementations of DCS.  

I'm still working on figuring out how everything works, took me forever to understand why the master caution kept going off on takeoff lol.  I have no experience in thee T-45C, we had T-2Cs when I was in flight school which were a lot of fun... except I hated the pin for the face curtain lol.  Was very envious when they retired the T-2s and went to T-45s.

The comms are working great so far, haven't run into any issues.  And its working fine with VIACOM Pro!

I'll spend some time testing some of the issues others are bringing up, to see if its a wider problem.

Bravo Zulu guys!!!

VAICOM! Thanks for the info!  

@Devil 505 Did you sort your comms issue? If it works with VAICOM, it should work with the ordinær PTTs. 

Cheers!
