Unable to Exit Missions

[IanHenry]

Hi,

can anyone help me? When I fly a mission using any of the DCS aircraft, I can't exit the mission. If I press the Escape key the mission paused box comes up, but I can't click on the "quit" "resume", or any other of the options, the only way to end the game is to force a re-start of the computer.

On another note, how do I go about selecting a differnt paint scheme?

 

Any suggestions greatfully recieved.

 

Thanks in advance,

Ian.

A place to start would be using alt-tab to open you desktop and then re-open DCS. That might help. Also, try disabling/enabling the "aero interface" checkbox in the options menu.

 

As for the aircraft skins, they can be selected in the mission editor. When you place (or select an existing) unit there will be a drop down menu on the right side of the screen with various liveries. Unfortunately I can't get more specific than that as I'm away from the home computer. If you can't figure it out I'd recommend looking at the GUI manual. That's located in the Docs folder (same place as the flight manual) and should have some instructions.

Thanks Smokey, that seems to have done the trick.
