Ducatipaul Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Hey Helles, I downloaded 2.7 onto another hard drive due to limited space, Opened it up and couldn't see a "saved games" file so I put it straight into "mods/aircraft folder, pretty sure am doing something "basic" wrong LOL (not the most computer literate person in the world), Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helles Belle Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 @Ducatipaul No worries As @Rudel_chw says, it's got to go in the saved games folder. I have DCS installed on a dedicated drive, (F: drive), and the saved games folder on C drive. It will work. I'll forgive you as you ride an Italian motorcycle....... that's punishment enough. 2 Send lawyers, guns and money......... for the …. has hit the fan.

I couldn't find this information anywhere. I don't know what NAVPAC is, maybe it's not implemented yet. If you set this switch to COMPUTER, the BDHI arrow will point to selected waypoint on the navigation radar. You have 2 waypoints, D1 and D2. So for instance if you select D2 and the switch is on computer, than the arrow will point to the D2 direction. Following this same logic, if the switch is in tacan position, than the arrow will point in direction of the tacan channel selected on the tacan panel.

Doc3908 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Hi, I can't seem to bind the A-4's (v.2) hook up/down action to my Warthog. The configuration utility makes the assignments to the appropriate throttle switches, but the switches do nothing. Tried different switches - same result. Even tried the stick and still no-go. I have a similar problem with the master-arm switch. Everything else (LG, flaps, spoilers, etc.) binds and works just fine. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Has anyone else tried to bind the hook to a switch? Thanks, Doc By the way, it would be nice if there was a toggle for the hook (like there is for the LG). Otherwise you need either a 3-way switch or two separate switches for the hook-up and the hook-down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
