realtrance Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 For some reason with the latest Beta update a huge orange compass has appeared in the top right of my monitor screen, and nothing I do gets rid of it. Tried turning on/off Game and Game Avionics modes, no change. Tried toggling debug mode, nothing. Very frustrating as I was just getting the hang of the Apache and had dialed in my cyclic/collective controls and curves, and now when i push forward on the cyclic, the chopper moves backwards (!), and when I increase collective it goes into a weird slew mode that just magically sends the helicopter off the ground and into the air, no flight model or physics involved. What’s going on?!?! ROG Maximus X, Intel i7-3770 3.5GHz , Nvidia 680Ti, 16GB DDR3 2400MHz, Logitech Extreme 3D Pro
M1Combat Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 Sounds like game flight mode... I know you say it's not but I think there are settings in a mission and in the settings screen etc that can force it on???

realtrance Posted June 24, 2022 Author Posted June 24, 2022 I forced all to Simulation but for some reason it didn’t take. Oh well, seems to have sorted itself now. Thanks for trying to help. ROG Maximus X, Intel i7-3770 3.5GHz , Nvidia 680Ti, 16GB DDR3 2400MHz, Logitech Extreme 3D Pro
JohnW71 Posted June 25, 2022 Posted June 25, 2022 I've just found the same thing in some of the training missions, game mode is not on in the settings or in the mission options but its in effect as you described. I opened and saved each training mission and all fixed now.

realtrance Posted June 26, 2022 Author Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) Okay can I just edit this file, then? Thanks for the tip! I was beginning to think it was some sort of LUA or other config/save file thing. EDIT: can you tell me what mode you have Notepad++ in to read the .miz files, please?

realtrance Posted June 26, 2022 Author Posted June 26, 2022 Okay this is wonderful! Went into Mission Editor to fix the mission, set Game Mode and Avionics to Enforced Off….Now I’m flying the AH-64D like a champ! (Or well, at least not into the ground….).It’s truly magnificent, like the rest of DCS now! Best chopper sim out there, period.Thank you all for your continuing hard work.

Did the same but had to Save As... and then copy back manually as the Missions/Training Folder was locked. Works a treat now. For the avoidance of confusion the Mission Editor shows your saved game Missions Folder by default - you have to choose Folder Browser option then navigate to the \Mods\Aircraft\AH-64D\Missions\Training area.
