I use a virpil throttle as my main throttle device, I have been using a warthog throttle also, just for the extra buttons. It worked great until a few updates ago. Now the warthog is not recognized in DCS, but it is still seen in device manager in windows. Did DCS change something that could be the cause? I have tried unplugging from USB, restarting computer, then plugging back in. I have also tried plugging into a different usb. Any suggestions on other things i could try?

I cant get the updater to stay running. It acts like its opening but then it closes. I need to get to the screen to change build, Im frusterated hoping for suggestions.

Ive had to reinstall SSA, now it does not find sound module. Any ideas on how I make it see sound module?

I have had to do a reinstall, and cant get SSA to see the Sound Module. Sound module is working, but in SSA it will not let me click the shaker button and unclick the seat. It is not showing the types of aircraft, only the general settings. How do I verify its looking for the right dcs file? After reinstall, I did get the key that matched my new string, and it accepted the key. It is not updating the aircraft flown, and does not work for the different effects. Ive been trying to get it functioning for a couple weeks now, Im sure I have a setting wrong somewhere. Any suggestions?

I have been part of this development, it is a very unique server. There are things here that I have not seen in DCS. --Flying a P51 as recon, able to send targeting info, that anyone on server can pull up coordinates for target. --Limited number of aircraft and weapons...but possible ways to get supplies flown to your airfield. --Helo Ops are very significant, they actually matter. --Persistence..build base defenses, tanks, troops..you spend time setting up an AI defense system---then if there is a DCS crash or you log off for whatever reason, come back 4 days later, and if phase has not been completed----ITS ALL STILL THERE---minus any casualties. Game changer. --Our discord has places to add your ideas--- yea, YOUR THOUGHTS MATTER !. I have had a few ideas that I thought were impossible, but a few days later they are functional. Your input is a very important part of this server. --Realism but blended with the overall goal that this should be fun --Escorts...yea we have an escort service. So say your on at an odd time and only a couple of you are on. Need CAP support as you ingress in the "Hog", how about a F18 Wingman (that actually works) who will follow or orbit an area. Flying a Helo, need an A10 to run ahead and scout an area and send a target report....etc. --Friendly, our biggest qualification stat. Lets be friendly with each other, respectful. We dont want it to be a training server, just due to the fact that resources are limited, but it is possible that we may add an area for training. You dont have to be a superstar, just competent in an airframe. If you have a preference of airframe that there are not many of, they can be added. I think most airframes are represented in here.

Broken flip trigger My flip trigger broke on my Vitpil Mongoose CM2. I contacted Virpil, theyemailed back the next day for more info about what exact stick I bought and order number. I thought this meant, either they would ship me the part or get me info on how to order replacement part. Stick was about 4 weeks old. After that contact from them, I have not gotten any response in the last 2 months. I have emailed a couple of times asking if I can order the replacement part, I would be ok with buying the part. All I need is the plastic trigger itself, which they know. I am very disappointed, I love the stick, throttle and 2bases I have. Even without that trigger it's still what I use. I have the VKB that is comparable, and the Hog. I am losing hope that this will get resolved. Bryan Reigle

Blank charts These are awesome. Im not able to click on it and download it. Ive been making a chart....but mine sucks compared to these. What can a do to get these as a file i can print off on pdf? I got it....just did what it said to..ha. Trying to plan swap over from WH throttle tp Virpil.

I have both index and rift s... So far the rift s has been WAY easier to set up and have great frame rates with. Not a huge difference in pic quality.....but im still tweaking on it

When I had similar issue, my problem was I was flipping the ACM switch.... Not realizing that greatly limited Jester.

Im having issues today with no pitch input recognized by f14. Other planes it works, but no elevators for f14, tried restarting DCS, tried changing cats, tried going to other mission. In the axis calibration, both in DCS and in windows, warthog is working perfectly. With f18, still have full controls. Also in DCS controls adjustment list, the pitch is highlighted purple. It is the only thing highlighted purple, this is new for me. Please tell me what Im missing. elevators move with aileron input, and with the pitch trim, but not with flightstick. The stick in the cockpit does not move backward and forward with movement of my Warthog, but it will move side to side. I have logged on and off a few times, done hard reset of computer. Frusterated. Also. the RIO stick WILL move forward and backward, in synch with HOTAS.

inside view of cockpit, looking at stick as I pull back warthog, the ingame stick does no move forward or backward, it does move left and right

Great point. I will just download the beta version.

im finding info for dcs 1.5 to swap back and forth, but not for 2.5

If I download the beta version, what will happen to my current 2.5 version... will it screw up my install?
