Thanks, I tried that and it didn't work.

Not really then you are fumbling for the mouse in VR.

I'm using voice attack and have programmed all of the DDI's to use voice commands to activate the buttons, it's quicker to just speak the button name instead of programming all of the DDI menus and submenus. I looked at Bailey's voice attack profile, but the problem is that I have a accent so I instead of staying for example "R", I have to program voice attack to respond to "Are". This issue is that I only want to use voice attack simple voice commands for the DDI buttons, so that I can say the button position over the menu option, instead of the DDM menu option itself. As I stated, I have a heavy accent which confuses voice attack a lot.

I have a SB Sim Gunfighter Pro which is an excellent joystick BTW, but I'm having a hard time in figuring out how to tune the paddle switch to start the zoom from the normal zoom position instead of the maximum zoomed out position. I want to start out at the zoom normal position, and when I squeeze the paddle switch, I zoom out.

The reason I'm asking is that I play in VR, and I'm creating a fully voice activated cockpit. For the DDI buttons they are in groups L1 to L20 for the left display, R1 -R20 for the right display, and B1- B20 for the bottom display. So if I have the radar on the right display and want to change radar from RWS to TWS, I would say "Select R 5" to switch radar modes. Although with practice, I will eventually learn the position of these buttons visually, it would be nice if there were a F-18C cockpit mod that had buttons on the numbers. This may not be possible if only one texture is used and repeated for each button.

I would like to write a mod to copy the transmitted text information to the kneeboard, but I cannot find any API's that capture transmitted game text. There there an API to do this? I can't find this in the API documentation.

OK, just figured it out. Apparently, the description part of the controls screen was hidden, so all I saw was the Launch Bar Extend/Off, etc, and not the description. So once I expanded the description field, I was applying my key bindings to the circuit breakers of the Launch Bar instead of the Launch Bar switch. So now everything is working. Thanks for the suggestions.

Just tried using other key bindings and I get the same issue. It doesn't matter what keys I bind to either the Launch Bar Retract, Launch bar Off, or Launch Bar On/Off, if I use a key binding to activate this switch, the switch fails and no longer works, BUT as long as I don't use a key binding and use the mouse cursor to activate the switch, the switch works fine. I checked the General, and UILayer section to verify that the same key binding wasn't used for some other function. I'm using the F-18C in Simulator mode.

Yea, I'm using the latest and greatest, but I been trying to bind the B key, I didn't think about binding another key so let me give that a try. Thanks for the suggestion.

Has anyone tried to bind a keyboard shortcut to raise and lower the launch bar? When I bind a key to either the launch bar On/Off, or Launch bar On and Launch bar OFF, the launch bar will not go into the ON or DOWN position. But If I click on it with the mouse cursor, I can set the Launch bar switch in the down or ON position. If I try using a keyboard shortcut to move the Launch Bar in the down or On position, it breaks the game code to were I can no longer set the launch bar in the down position even with the mouse cursor. I have to restart the mission to get it working again with the mouse cursor. Can anyone try using a key binding to lower and raise the launch bar to see if this is just my configuration or a bug?

Thanks, I been doing it manually.

Thanks for all the info. Harker was correct, I misunderstood how the donor targets works in conjunction with the radar. Also TorniQuetHD left several comments on my video explaining the same thing. I did as Harker suggested and turned of the datalink, and that resolved most of my issues. My misunderstanding was that I thought that once I select the radar target by pressing the target select button, the radar would be automatically slewed to the correct altitude and heading provided by the donor if the target were within the gimbal limits of the radar. My other question is that once you lock up a target, do you need to manually move the radar elevation to maintain lock, or does the radar automatically do this for you? Once again, thanks for the fast response to my stupidity. I'm a in a happy place now.

I'm learning the F-18C and so far I got the ground attack mode mastered, but I having serious issues with learning how to use the air-air radar. I watched several videos on YouTube as well as doing the tutorials and it doesn't seem that complex, but I just can't get the STT or TWR mode to lock or even when I can see the aircraft in the distance. My radar setup is similar to what I see in the videos, but nothing seems to work. I am really frustrated at this point. Here's the link to the video showing all of the steps that I'm doing to try to lock up a target with the Air to Air Radar: Click here to view my video Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks that did the trick, but I'm still not sure why I was getting this error now when I never got it before.

The problem with Tacview is that you cannot record high quality videos with it. I'd like to have an option where the replay function uses just the flight data like Tacview, but without the AI and the physics playback, and with all the other visual effects enabled. It would be nice if there were a time line where you could scrub forward and backward to pick the best video shots. BTW, how does DCS create their videos and don't seem to have the same problem as we have?

With the latest update, I get this message on startup. The log file shows: 2021-01-06 02:52:53.120 WARNING DCS: Not Authorized, user-skipped: ./Mods/aircraft/A-10A 2021-01-06 02:52:55.072 INFO Scripting: plugin: SKIPPED 'MiG-29 Fulcrum by Eagle Dynamics': not authorized 2021-01-06 02:55:14.734 WARNING DCS: Not Authorized, user-skipped: ./Mods/aircraft/Su-25A I have purchased all DCS modules including the Flaming Cliffs and I can no longer fly these planes. The E-Shop shows that I have already bought these planes. Is there a work around this? dcs.log

Thanks for the help, but, I did a re-upgrade to windows 10 and also changed the fan curves on my Video card and updated the video drivers again, and now I can't duplicate the crash. it may be that my video card was over heating and the fan curves were not aggressive enough. Once again thanks for the offer.

Anyone beside me, who would like the option to replay a mission track in DCS like Tacview does? I'm just interested in viewing the movements of the vehicles and other weapon systems, so it would make creating videos much easier. The only difference is that the track file would not be dynamic, in that you cannot enter the mission, but only view the movements of the vehicles in the mission. You could also scrub forward and backward in the mission for recording purposes.

I seem to to only get the error below when I'm trying to replay a mission from the external view for a video that I'm making. I get almost up to the point near the end of the track and I get a crash each time. I had Dell scan my system for errors for two days and they found no hardware or software errors. My hardware is not exceeding any thermal limits. My PC was recently reloaded and DCS was reinstalled from scratch. I'm using the latest Nvida drivers for an EVGA 2080 TI card. This crash seems to affect the F-18C more so than the other planes that I fly. Anyone else have a possible fix or solution to this problem? Here's the error code: Faulting application name: DCS.exe, version: 2.5.6.58125, time stamp: 0x5fbba395 Faulting module name: d3d11.dll, version: 10.0.19041.546, time stamp: 0xef86554b Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x00000000001298a0 Faulting process id: 0x3fb4 Faulting application start time: 0x01d6c9d6904a0cde Faulting application path: D:\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS.exe Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\d3d11.dll Report Id: 397f21fb-89ab-4de0-91c5-9526827cb203 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID:

After the latest update, I'm still having the same issue that Baily posted if I change the GUI scale to a value greater than 1. I only have one monitor. Has anyone submitted a bug report on this?

If the files are located in your profile folder, "Saved Games", you can use the Windows 10 file history to restore the files a day before you selected reset.

When I display the Kneeboard, the outline doens't match the kneeboard image and the tab markings get all screwed up. I tried doing a repair, and the extensive integrity check, but I still get this issue with every aircraft. Any suggestions? I'm not going to reinstall DCS World because everything else is working, and the last time I had to reinstall DCS with all my assets, I almost exceeded my data cap which slowed my internet connection from 250 Mbs to 10 Mbs for several days.

I figured out the super carrier, but I'm still having issues with landing at an airport. unless I do a complete shutdown, I get no options to taxi to runway, just the "parent menu" option when contacting the tower. It's not a game breaker, but it is immersion breaking. Thanks for the info.

Once I take off and then land, the ATC tells me to taxi to parking. So, I taxi to a parking ramp, and when I then contact the ATC, there are no options. I tried rearming and refueling, and I still get no options in the ATC communications sub-menu. BUI, if I shut down the aircraft, I then get the option to "startup" from the ATC menu. Is there a specific place where I supposed to park before the ATC menu starts working again? This is especially a problem when trying to practice landing on the super carrier as the launch crew will not get in position to allow me to do a catapult launch unless I contact the ATC first. Another minor issue is that the sub-menus of the comms menu are no black after the A-10C II update. Is this normal?

I getting the same error message. I had to reinstall a clean version of Windows 10 due to a corrupted M.2 SSD and now I can't install either the stable or beta version of using the web installer. I get the same COULDN'T CONNECT TO SERVER message. I tried disabling my Anti-virus, and connecting directly to the internet and I get the same error. I had no issues with any of the 20 other games that I installed. I put in a ticket, but it looks like even that got lost, so I'll have to but in another ticket.
