Easy com in multiplayer only ?

[vctpil]

Hi,

 

When I play solo with any aircrafts, I can select the COM1 or COM2 ATC menu.

 

When I play multiplayer or host a server, either the menu does not display with the AV-8B or the menu AUTO appears with the F/A-18C. So, I cannot use the ATC menu in multiplayer, and then, not able to refuel.

 

Any idea(s) how to solve this problem ?

 

Thanks,

Vincent

How do you select the menu?

With the same function on my HOTAS Warthog.

And that function is...?

I'm asking because there are different functions to deal with comms. If you're not using Easy Comms you might have to use the actual MIC switches on the HOTAS instead of the generic DCS comms function. I don't know which one you have mapped to your HOTAS Warthog.

Ah, ok, sorry.

 

COM AFT: Select COMM 2 - JOY_BTN6

COM FWD: Select COMM 1 - JOY-BTN4

 

Those button are also used as PTT (in reality).

 

Thanks,

Vincent

I guess you're talking about the Harrier here. Those mappings should be the correct ones in that case. Unfortunately I'm not overly familiar with the Harrier and its comms behaviour, so I'm not sure what might be the issue here. Instead of using the comms menu to request ground crew services you could also just press Alt + ' with ' being the 2nd key to the right of L, which can be a different character depending on keyboard language.

You also talked about the Hornet in your original post, which is what I thought this is about. Is there a problem with the Hornet as well?
Just to make sure, you should use these comms functions for the Hornet:

- COMM Switch - COMM 1

- COMM Switch - COMM 2
