In a mission of mine I had replaced the clouds and resaved. I'd completed my first A/G mission and noticed that Jester didn't call bingo until 25-2600 lbs whilst I had bingo set to the default of 4000. I usually pay more attention, so that's partially my fault. Because I was so low, I couldn't quite make it to the carrier, so we took a swim behind the boat. When trying to get a new F-14B the game hung for the F-14 reload. I know this was a problem before, but thought it fixed. What may be causing the dcs crash and Are Jester's comms for Bingo just majorly delayed sometimes? It wasn't a highly active sortie as I was just practicing my gbu bombing, so he wasn't too active in comms. Thank You

Sad pandas make me cry As a virtual F-14B pilot, I certainly would love to have at least airspeed and basic altitude symbolism on my hud, heh. It'd be nice, but know it's not true to the B. I've heard the F-14BU's (Upgrade variants) had multiple configurations regarding mfds, etc.. Was this true pre-BUs, as well, or just for the F-14BUs? I'm curious to what tech would be allowed from those or near versions

They beat me to it, but I'd like to reiterate and perhaps make sure some things are clear Your personal contacts will show their symbolism towards the top of the aircraft location, i.e. half square/triangle, etc.. The data-link contacts show flipped symbolism towards the bottom of where the contact is, i.e. upside down half square/triangle, etc.. Your Aircraft's target and the Data-Link's targets may differ in symbolism. This is fine. Even if the data-link shows someone as hostile (upside down arrow/triangle), you'll still have to identify and lock your aircraft's own target. For others that may see this thread and not know: -A half-square or tipped bracket represents an unknown/bogie. -A Partial triangle represents a hostile. -A half-circle represents a friendly. This is true for both your aircraft's radar and what the data-link gives out. The symbols are just flipped for the data-link showing towards the bottom of the aircraft location. There may be times, though rare, that you may see something like a full circle... Congratulations! This just means that your ins alignment may be in great shape and your seeing a friendly from both your radar and the data-link's I tried to keep this fairly basic and short. Hope this helps and if I had any major blonde moments or something (shhh, don't tell anyone) please let me know so I can correct any of the above

Dang Engine Same here. I've reported this before, as well. Has happened in Single and Multiplayer. Tonight I tried using both the Stennis and SC. Neither worked :( I restarted the mission from Mission Editor and same thing :( I'm a sad sad kitty lover.

I understand the hesitation, but look forward to those skins :) I couldn't have said it better myself:thumbup:

OMG OMFreakin'Lord...:megalol:

OMG, I need to get it! I didn't realize they had Top Gun in 4K now:pilotfly:

Sry, but I have to give you props!:prop: You made me chuckle..

Sorry, I've been quite busy for a bit. Yes, he does seem to be screwing something up in some way. Side note: Sometimes Jester doesn't deselect the bomb that's been dropped or the front dash/panel is still telling me that it's there. Good thing to keep an eye out for, but I don't usually have it selected. TY:) Thanks for the tip! I'll keep my eye out:) I'll show you a video IronMike, when I start recording soon, if it happens again, thank you:thumbup: P.S. I've been having issues with getting missions to work due to an uninstall/reinstall, so it may be a little bit.

I agree, whole-heartedly! :thumbsup:

+1 Good questions:)

Was going to say the same thing!:thumbup: Couldn't agree more!

I love you! ;* lol You guys have always been great. Keep it up:D The Cat's my go-to fun-mobile!

I'm going to try to describe, in short, of what I believe has been said in the forums by HB: If I remember correctly, they've mentioned how they've made mistakes and/or needed to make fixes as well as ED making mistakes and/or needing to fix things. There are so many variables with DCS that I don't envy anyone there job, heh. <Enter crying here> Personally, I'm looking forward to the catB launch fixes and right engine fixes:), but I understand that there are so many variables/moving parts that it'd be insane to give dates now with all the changes:( P.S. I do understand; however, the frustration with most businesses these days not having much, if any, accountability for their business or product. I just think, in this case, that perhaps they don't really have the means to commit, via patch changes, etc...

I couldn't agree more... I don't want just a crew on deck. I want to feel like the carrier's a living and breathing module with many moving parts. I like what they did with the Stennis, but I don't want a slightly improved version of it.

They're both great planes, but I think the Cat is more fun. They've made improvements to Jester recently and are continuing to do so:) I've also had pretty good luck with people wanting to Rio in MP. Therefore, perhaps sometime you should jump back in and give it another shot :smilewink: On the note of aircraft, I'd enjoy a Tornado variation that had the auto-sweep wing feature. Would love to try some SEAD in that, if possible.

+1 Doesn't work

+1 on this.. It's happened to me many times since the update. Just yesterday, I latched, unlatched and relatched again with all 4 Catapults on the Stennis with no ability to launch. I then had to go into the (ME)Mission Editor and put some Tomcats on a land base :( Looking forward to the fix from whomever needs to fix it.

Tomcat's Multi-role Badassery! Honestly, it's what many have said:) It has a lot of power, maneuverability and gives you great feedback in one great package of multi-role goodness! I have many modules, but the F-14B is my go-to. The F-14 is one of the few aircraft that can do great self-escort missions.:pilotfly: I've seen mention some of the things that jester wasn't able to do... yet. A couple examples of things to come: - More realistic ability of Jester in using radar - More Jester commands for specific radar functions - Jester will be able to use the Lantirn Pod for some great LGB fun when solo - much more, etc.. Check out this link to show some of what's planned:worthy: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=251618 Take note that although it's great A2A, it is actually very good for A2G. It was called the Bombcat for a reason ;) You can do ccip and ccrp. It doesn't have all the homing A2G armament of it's newer offspring, but it's still a good bombing platform. It can carry a lot of armament and with plenty of fuel to boot! P.S. There is/will be a little less shaking (AoA shaking has or will be adjusted) and you can turn off Jester's voice for now, if you really want to ;) If the plane's Stick is in the way of the TID you can hit backspace to remove it, as well :) P.S.S. We just got a nice big update with more to come :D P.S.S.S. @IronMike, please correct me if any of this is wrong :D

Thank You! Excellent work guys! Now more to study:yes:

Agreed:thumbup:

Thank you very much! I was wondering if anyone else had that issue. Let me know if you find anything else out with it:smilewink: LOL, hilarious! Do the work, Jester!:lol: I use the switches on the base of my x52 stick for the weapons, so they're generally fine, but good suggestion. Yeah, I figured that not doing a/g button/switch first could cause something, but it did happen multiple times. Didn't dawn on me that Hot Trigger would show for bombs, as well:smilewink: Good to know, thank you!

Interesting point... I couldn't tell you; however, it's happened twice, so I'm not sure if that's the case. I'll definitely note that though, thank you :smilewink:

I also tried re-asking Jester to equip the ordinance and didn't work sadly:( Yes, I double and triple-checked all of your points :) Thanks for the feedback. Good info for many, I'm sure:) Yes, oddly, one time 4 dropped and the other 4 didn't without over-ging..
