That seems odd, as the snapviews of all DCS aircraft are stored on that file, this is mine: 1 For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Slippa Posted October 5, 2024 Author Posted October 5, 2024 It had me baffled too for a minute. Just sussed it. I hadn't loaded the keyboard profile. I use my num pad for my snap views, no combo, just the numbers. Once I mapped the keyboard inputs my snaps were all there so I'm all sorted . A bit like pulling teeth but got there in the end. Just hope ED don't drop us a massive update for a while, I could do without this every time. Plenty of space on C as well as a couple of externals so should be good for a while. Cheers for the help. 2

Well, fortunately nowadays the DCS updates are spaced 4-6 weeks apart, remember when we used to have updates every 2 weeks? ... I much prefer these bigger updates rather than have them often but less "meaty" 1 For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Slippa Posted October 17, 2024 Author Posted October 17, 2024 (edited) The forum wants me to close this and ‘pick a winner’ or nominate who best solved this conundrum. I got it to install finally by installing VPN software. Then and only then could I install DCS again. If I could, I’d give each poster a badge, lapel pin or maybe some fancy cuffs - (feel free to dish out some free modules ED). I’ll pick one of ya at random but am always grateful to anyone dipping in to help so thanks to all y’all. Very good of ya. Edit: Thinking about it, Art reminded me what should’ve been obvious but I missed with my inputs so I’ve marked it as a solution. Congrats all, ED may drop you all a shiny module but we’ll have to see. *May take a fortnight. Edited October 17, 2024 by Slippa 1 1
