MRaza Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 just updated my dcs to 1.5.8.12823.414 and I'm gettting a lot of random, really long pauses, and I just got kicked from 2 separate servers back to the main screen for no apparent reason... can someone help me or point me to the appropriate thread to ask about this? just happened again for a third time, no reason or anything just a kick back to the main menu
TonyStovepipe Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Anyone know how to disable the cockpit mfd ? I don't know if its change but I have been editing the ViewportHandling.lua C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit Read up I need to change this line but nothing working. purposes = {render_purpose.GENERAL, Thanks for any help.
deaconjb Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 add -- --render_purpose.GENERAL **I believe this is how you do it [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

See if you pass the integrity check. It seems like it has been updated recently and is harder to pass now. I've been kicked off several times like you until I went out and deleted some mods to make sure I pass it. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
TonyStovepipe Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 add -- --render_purpose.GENERAL **I believe this is how you do it Thank you. I just tested it and the mfd in cockpit still on :(
deaconjb Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 Thank you. I just tested it and the mfd in cockpit still on :( Hmm. It worked for me in version 1.5 Here's a link I used http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3615540/Re:_MFDs_shut_off [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
TonyStovepipe Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Thanks it did not work at first time but after I redid the virtual cockpit server it worked some how. Thank for helping :D
Shadow KT Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 For the first time ever, a guy on the 104th TS swore that he had burned his TGP laser, and it was saying T on the TGP. I've never heard of this, is it possible ? 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Eddie Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 You can’t “burn” the LASER(s), the pod could overheat (most likely on the ground or at high speed and/or low altitude), but such things aren’t modelled. Even if overheat conditions were modelled, the pod provides warnings of the issue and it can be resolved by slowing down or climbing. There are no LASER firing time limits.
Nooch Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) For the first time ever, a guy on the 104th TS swore that he had burned his TGP laser, and it was saying T on the TGP. I've never heard of this, is it possible ? A "T" is often displayed on the lower right hand side. I wonder what it represents though. I've searched the manual but can't find anything there.

Shadow KT Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 As I mentioned, I was told so. I've never experienced such behavior myself. I've always believed that it is not overheatable or burnable 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Shadow KT Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 I am working on a project for my aircraft's aerodynamics subject and I've chosen the a-10. Can anyone provide me with documentation with the geometry of the aircraft, schematics and charts ? 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Gliptal Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 I am working on a project for my aircraft's aerodynamics subject and I've chosen the a-10. Can anyone provide me with documentation with the geometry of the aircraft, schematics and charts ?Check out what's in the 1A-10A-1 (not the 1A-10C-1, we shouldn't have access to that). The aerodynamic differences between the two models are minimal, if any. 1
Shadow KT Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Thank you ! 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Shadow KT Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Maybe I'll have to pick an airliner after all, can't seem to find stuff like drag/lift coefficients at different AoA. Cheers anyway 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
twistking Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 hey, when sending attack-coordiantes to my wingman (coop/multiplayer, not ai) with the tasking function (tad "send"), the point transmitted has always been some hundreds meters short of the designated spot. did we do anything wrong, is it a bug, or a limitation of the tasking functionality (if so, why?)? the "broadcast SPI" seems to be more precise, but i find the "send task" more useful, since it does not require the lead to stay on target until wingman accquires the spi... My improved* wishlist after a decade with DCS *now with 17% more wishes compared to the original
Eddie Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 It doesn't transmit elevation (bug that's been there since the beginning). A workaround is to hook the target in the TAD and copy it to a mission waypoint.

A workaround is to hook the target in the TAD and copy it to a mission waypoint. Oh, ok. Thanks for the answer. So for the workaround, the leader would do as usual, but the copying to waypoint would be done by the receiving unit, yes? If so, wouldn't a markpoint be sufficient? Should be doable with only one click, if i'm not mistaken?! My improved* wishlist after a decade with DCS *now with 17% more wishes compared to the original

Should be doable with only one click, if i'm not mistaken?! Both a markpoint and waypoint would be one click, so depending on your desired result either would work. A waypoint has the advantage of being more editable and not being overwritten by the system. It's basically the same actions you'd take for transferring a shared SPI to the system (if following real world procedures of course).
twistking Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 ok. thank you. i will try both:) My improved* wishlist after a decade with DCS *now with 17% more wishes compared to the original
Ala12Rv-Tundra Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Hi guys, not sure where to post this. Years ago, I bought DCS A-10C standalone version for Steam. Last week, I got DCS World installed, and then bought the F5 module, NTTR map, and a couple of campaigns during Steam Xmas sales. Could I uninstall my standalone version of A-10C to save HDD space?

I don't want to mess up with missing modules on DCS World. First of all this is not the correct thread to be asking, but... Are you talking about the DCS: A-10C its self ? Woah, that was long time ago... Yes, you can un-install it. Download DCS: World and activate your modules in it. You should be able to get your steam key for the A-10 as well and use it to activate it within DCS: World, if you got any trouble, ask in the DCS World Section or contact support 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
