Eddie Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Are you running the latest release version (1.1.1.1)?
MemphisBelle Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Hello. Just fired up my multiplayer DSCA10, but no servers come up in the list? Are they supposed to ? Since the last Game versions (1.1.1.1) the Serverlist appears immediately. So check as Eddie asked, whether you run the correckt game Version. BlackSharkDen | BSD Discord | DCS Tutorial Collection
sonicd0012 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Nope. How do i update my 1.1.0.9 version. Last time i tried it didnt let me update or told me that it wasnt right ?
badger66 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 You can go through downloading all the patchs and loading them one by one or , download version 1.1.1.1 from the DCS site and installing it in one lump ..... large download though , but works every time .
shagrat Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 You should definitely download the complete 1.1.1.1 Updating often leaves old settings and configs in place, then things get messy. The "All-in-one Big Pack" is the most reliable way to update.

nomdeplume Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Yah, I wouldn't bother with the patch unless you're only one version behind. Since you're two versions behind, I'd just download the full 1.1.1.1 version from the download page, uninstall your existing one, and do a new install. Your controller configuration and other settings are stored in your profile (on Vista/Win7 in C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS Warthog) so you won't lose any of those customisations. Note that the full installation is four separate files, that all need to be downloaded to the same directory. You then run the first one (the .exe) to start the installer. Each file has several mirrors available. There's also a torrent at the bottom of the download page which will allow you to download all the files using a bittorrent client, which also performs an integrity check to make sure your downloaded files are complete and without errors.
firefox83 Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 Having an issue with my toe breaks being assigned to pitch and roll on the Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals. I have read other post where it talks about running the regedit and deleting VID _06A3&PID_0763, but I dont have that in my list, instead I got VID _06A3&PID_0764 only. I tried downloading this http://www.wingmanteam.com/latest_so..._soft_main.htm but that has not helped with anything either. I have also tried inverting my toe break axis (but that seems to be of an issue with the brakes not releasing) and nothing. When I pull up the in game control window (rctrl+enter) it shows my toe breaks mapped to pitch and roll, no matter what control setting the pick. Ive gone through all the different X/Y axis settings for the pedals and nothing is working. Ive tried uninstalling the saitek software, and no luck. Seems that everyone else is only having an issue where their toe breaks dont engage/disengage all the way, but I have not read anything for the issue I have. I also have the TM HOTAS Warthog, and that works like a charm. If anyone can help me out, that would be awesome, and again, sorry if this is posted somewhere else but I couldnt find it.
Skymad Posted April 1, 2012 Posted April 1, 2012 Quick question: how to pop-up windows? I saw on youtube, for example left MFCD or throttle panel after some button/key combination poped-out on half of a screen. Sorry if you can't understand, I don't know how say it diffirently :P It works in FS2004 and FSX as well.
Sarge55 Posted April 1, 2012 Posted April 1, 2012 Sounds like you mean "Snap View". If so, then they can be assigned in your options/controls/views. Hope that helps.

Ugene Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Having an issue with my toe breaks being assigned to pitch and roll on the Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals. ... Hi, i have the same configuration (Hotas an Pedals) and had the same problems. The problem was that the axis of the pedals were not mapped correctly in DCS by default. I had to delete all assigned axis of the pedal device and then reassign them properly to rudder, wheel brake left & right. Then you can invert the axis. Ps: About the regedit thing...I deleted the 0764 entry....worked for me.
firefox83 Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Thanks Ugene, I deleted that filed and remapped my keys, now they work fine. Also (which I did earlier as well, and it didnt work) it seems they are mapped under "Sim" setting and not "Game". Although I play on game for now and the controls are set up for that, its seems my toe brakes are configured under sim settings. You all wouldnt know why my slew control wont work now, do ya? I'm using the TM Warthog, and Ive played the maverick training mission several times now with no problems slewing/firing via the coolie switch for the agms. Now, Im messing around with the quick missions/campaign to get some more practice in, but I cant get the slew to work with the coolie, instead I have to use the keyboard. Ive been using the TM WH, and the controls work in the training missions, but during any other mission, it doesnt work, not matter what screen is SOI. Im unable to slew them using the coolie switch (which works during training). As far as I can tell, nothing changes with the controls from training to mission. Ive looked over my control settings, and everything seems fine, is there something I am just missing? Thanks for the help. Ive been searching the forums like crazy too, but cant seem to find an answer.
nomdeplume Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 You all wouldnt know why my slew control wont work now, do ya? There's two game modes, "game" and "simulation" (or "real"). Each has a completely different separate set of control bindings, so you may have your controls configured properly in one mode but not the other. In the Options menu, go to the "Gameplay" tab and make sure your settings are as desired (i.e. both Game Flight Mode and Game Avionics Mode are disabled if you want to play in simulation/real mode), and then make sure the "Use these options for all missions" option (at the bottom right) is enabled. This will make sure your settings override whatever was specified in the mission itself, and you'll get consistent behaviour across all missions.

That did it. I knew there was something I had to be missing. Works like a charm now, thanks.

GGTharos Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 ... You need to read the manual and do the trainings. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
il_corleone Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 thanks for the reply, i do it all, but i cant find it, all of the other things work perfeclty, sorry i am a bit stupid :(, but can you help me in the way i need to follow?
GGTharos Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 I can try. Did you turn on EGI on the NMSP and, have you turned on the CICU? Can you provide screenshots of your cockpit?

il_corleone Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 i will try to revise the Egi, i think its the problem, tomorrow i will try it, thanks for your help mate, much thannks
shagrat Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) thanks for the reply, i do it all, but i cant find it, all of the other things work perfeclty, sorry i am a bit stupid :(, but can you help me in the way i need to follow? First thing to look for is the Caution Light Panel (p.82) on the right console: Anything lit? Then you missed something in the Start-Up procedure. Usual suspects: - alignment of EGI not finished, which takes about 8(!) minutes, "patience young Padawan" - not switched to EGI on NSMP (p.113) - EAC not enabled (which requires the above to work) Sniped!:D Edited April 3, 2012 by shagrat Sniped by GGTharos Shagrat - Flying Sims since 1984 - Win 10 | i5 10600K@4.1GHz | 64GB | GeForce RTX 3090 - Asus VG34VQL1B | TrackIR5 | Simshaker & Jetseat | VPForce Rhino Base & VIRPIL T50 CM2 Stick on 200mm curved extension | VIRPIL T50 CM2 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Plus/Apache64 Grip | MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals | WW Top Gun MIP | a hand made AHCP | 2x Elgato StreamDeck (Buttons galore)

Tailgate Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) When setting weapons profiles, some have an Escape Maneuver setting. How does this option effect the delivery and is it modeled in the sim? For example, if you set Climbing Turn, and you release straight and level, what difference does it make? Thanks eta' Nevermind, found the answer here ... http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=84675&highlight=Escape+maneuver Edited April 4, 2012 by Tailgate

If you still have questions, ask, and I'll try and answer.
Tailgate Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) Thanks Eddie. Good info and the graphics are helpful. I do have a couple more questions ... Bingo Fuel. I didn't see anything in the manual about setting this. Is this an option? Hard Deck warning. I'd like to set a warning if I go below a specific alt while I'm in a SAM envelope. Is there a setting to adjust this? I'd assume it would be in a LASTE subpage, but didn't see anything on it. Edited April 4, 2012 by Tailgate
