unipus Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Ah, great, and much needed! (as was said above - in addition to these and other videos, there ARE training missions currently in the game, and they're all very helpful. Hopefully many more coming, as well - and not broken like the CCIP one was... now fixed thankfully.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charly_Owl Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 How come Chucks guide gets stickied straight away, whereas this gem (from which Chuck pulled a lot of his info) doesn't. Please make this thread sticky so it's easy to find in the future. This thread should definitely be stickied and I firmly believe that John's work is of tremendous value, but please don't turn this into a popularity contest. 1 Chuck's DCS Tutorial Library Chuck's Guides on Mudspike Chuck's Youtube Channel Chuck's Patreon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhorse Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Hi, Is there an advanced tutorial for the AKAN Gun pud yet? Cant seem to find any. Im having issues getting the gun pod working by some reason, not sure what Im doing wrong. Been trying most combinations I think but no result. Earlier I just got it to working firing one bullet at a time (during Beta release). An "advanced" tutorial for the gun pod would be appreciated :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earlier I just got it to working firing one bullet at a time (during Beta release). An "advanced" tutorial for the gun pod would be appreciated :) I haven't tried it, but it should work exactly like the rocket pods if i understood it correctly. Also keep in mind the you can only combine them with Rb-05 and Rb-75. If you carry any other weapons you're going to have problems. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-LEO- Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Hello pilots! I am new to DCS (but il-2 veteran), and to the forums. The Viggen forced me to fly her, and to land here (after some problems with registration) @ derelor BIG THX! I'm hard engaged with everything about the Viggen, and DCS of course.:joystick: @ xxJohnxx: very good work, you are explaining everything so good, even i can understand it. Thank you very much! There is one problem in mission RB04: i cant see any radar contacts, and when i have opend it in the editor, there ist no target at waypoint 3 ?? something wrong with me or the mission?

Rudel_chw Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 ... There is one problem in mission RB04: i cant see any radar contacts, and when i have openend it in the editor, there ist no target at waypoint 3 ?? something wrong with me or the mission? Wecome to DCS :) In order to preserve an element of surprise, a mission designer may choose to hide some units ... this way, when you play the mission and at the beginning use the Mission planner, you dont get a spoil :) On the mission editor, you can unhide units by using the "View Unit List" button (on the left side toolbar, 4th icon from the bottom). When you are playing the mission, you should be able to see the target on the radar once you get near the B2 waypoint, remember to adjust the radar range to 120 Km.

xxJohnxx Posted February 18, 2017 Author Share Posted February 18, 2017 Welcome to DCS and the forums and thanks for the kind words! There is one problem in mission RB04: i cant see any radar contacts, and when i have opend it in the editor, there ist no target at waypoint 3 ?? something wrong with me or the mission? In order to preserve an element of surprise, a mission designer may choose to hide some units [...] Indeed, to make this mission a bit more challenging (so that one has actually use the radar :smilewink:) I have hidden the units in the mission editor. As Rudel mentioned, you can turn them back visible if you want to. If your radar screen is illumiated, do you actually see the sweep going across? If not make sure that you are in the proper A1 radar mode. In mode A0, the radar will be off and in mode A2 the radar will show a magnified B-Scope (zommed square representation instead of the arc) that is positioned arround the current target point.

-LEO- Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Ok, thank you for the explanation Rudel and John! :thumbup: I thought it must be something about hidden objects, but i was so confused about the "hidden" radar signature. So, i have to check what i have done wrong first:book: then :joystick: Best regards Leo edit: ok, mission accomplished. works fine if one keeps calm and carrys on (in der Ruhe liegt die Kraft, as we say in german language) Edited February 18, 2017 by -LEO- Intel i5-11400 CPU @ 4.30GHz / ASUS Prime B560-Plus / 32GB DDR3 RAM 3000 Mhz Dual / MSI Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB / SSD Samsung 120/250/500GB / IIyama 27" 1920x1080 @ 144 Hz / Track IR 4+Track Clip Pro / Sennheiser PC 360 / Thrustmaster Warthog Throttel , VPC-Warbrd D+Warthog Stick, TFRP Rudder / WIN 10 Ever tried.

Rudel_chw Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Hi John, I hope you will continue this very useful video series ... may I suggest one about TILS low visibility landings? ...
