Hi All, I believe this is my first time posting here so I hope I got to the right sub-forum! Anyhow, I've been playing DCS for a few years now and I absolutely love it. My problem is that the way I play is by generally finding a public server to hop onto like one of the 4YA servers and just do my own thing. Sometimes I'm lucky enough to find someone who wants to fly with me on there, but its hit and miss. So now I'm looking for a mil sim group to join and have fun with. Although I feel quite proficient with the F-18, and F-16 modules, I still feel like there's a bunch of stuff I need to learn. and I haven't even touched "proper" communications procedures, so I would need to learn that stuff, hence why I have stated that I am looking for a relaxed group. I'm all for going full immersion but I feel like I lack a fair bit of knowledge that some mil sim groups might expect from the start. So in an ideal world, I'd also like to have members willing and able to teach me how to better use modules. A little about me: Age: 25 Location: North West England Availability: Weekends, and some week day evenings DCS hours estimate: 500-1000h Owned Aircraft: F/A-18C (1st Choice), F-16C (2nd Choice), A-10C ii (Third Choice), F-15E, AV-8B, Spitfire, UH-1H Huey, AH-64D [Owned but never flown], Su-33 [Owned but never flown] Owned Maps: Syria, Persian Gulf Owned Miscellaneous Modules: Supercarrier So, if anyone has any suggestions to a group I'd be well suited to I'd love to hear Thanks, Coxie

Hi! Recently experienced an annoying bug in the Cold and dark instant mission for F-16C Viper on the Marianas map. During the start up, an other Viper in front of me starts up too and starts to taxi to runway. In the same time a HMTT Tanker comes from the opposite diection of the airfield. The viper stops and the tanker makes a turn but at the end they collide and both of them will explode. Tested more times. Attached plese find a picture and the track file. Please check it. Thanks in advance! Pootj78 Marianas_Viper_Cold_IM_Bug.trk

Hi, I've developed a new plugin for the F16 & FA-18 which is working with VoiceAttack (32/64bit Full versions only) You can see a demos here, JanJan DCS Demo1 JanJan DCS Demo2 Dynamic Phrases PopUp Planner Phrase Filter Dynamic Phrases It has over 50K commands. Download from JanJan discord server It can do the following: Vocal commands to control the entire cockpit. Perform ALL the radio communication commands you can say: Flight, attack air defenses Texaco, request rejoin Inboud for landing Checkin 15 minutes Ready to copy ...all of them Commands to control external views. Control the simulators and more. In addition, and this is the main strength of this plugin, it has other special complex command to perform other tasks. E.g.: Set ILS to any airport you select without specifying the frequency. After 'selecting' the airport you can ask for it's available runways and say set ILS for runway 26 left say Set TACAN frequency. Either set Tblisi tacan or set tacan channel 126 yankee followed by set tacan mode air/ground Set HSI course Set Backup UHF frequency Ask for a vector to the nearest airport Report external/Internal fuel level Set Com1/Com2 radio frequencies Set QNH Set and tune illumination for all available instruments Show/Hide and toggle kneeboard I also added many dynamic checks e.g.: Check that fuel flow is below your threshold value Verify airspeed is below your threshold before lowering the landing gear Verify speed brakes are closed Below are just a few of the complex commands: null JanJan_VA_plugin_for_DCS.pdf RECENT UPDATES 1.1.4.0 * Fixed bug related to user key checkbox. * Added missing dcs-bios files which are needed for it's operation. 1.1.1.8 * Adding config option to run FLCS bit test during startup. * Adding command to set laser start time, if you think 5 to 30 sec is not enough let me know, *set [laser;tgp] start [time;] [5..30][seconds;]* * Fixed MFD loading sequence - once in a while the F-16 MFD code gets updated, which effects the MFD commands. 1.0.35.0 * Adding an option under *Commands* Tab to use 'recenter VR Headset'. This will stop the view from recentering every time the plugin tries to 'press' Num5. See doc or tool tip for further instructions. * Fixing command parser which may have not read commands from general keyfile properly. 1.0.34.0 * **Adding Mariana Islands Support** * Fix bug when reading keyfiles * Updating/fixing typos in commands 1.0.33.0 * Fixed model not selected properly on fresh install * Fixed DCS export when variables are not defined 1.0.32.0 * Update profile * Update DCS-BIOS version * Fixed but with prevented reading data in 2.72 from ramp 1.0.30.0 * Supporting VAx64 1.0.10.0 * **Adding support for the 'Filter Phrase' command in 3D including VR.** * See plugin doc for this new feature and how to setup & enable it. * Modified *Show comm menu* command to prevent possible bug when using VAICOM * Saving selected option for Backup tab in Config Form * Adding config options to specify DCS saved game folder * Added vocal notification to set laser code

Hi all: I have experienced constant crash on each time around 5 mins of game play.(if you see my record it has been for several month already.) The DCS world program just hang then back to Windows 10. It could happen at any moment, during the fight, landing, parking, or just flying. I have a complete brand new Windows 10 installation, brand new DCS installation(with customized airplane skins only). I have turned off the weather, I have run DCS world as administrator, I have switched to default skin, I have installed all c++ runtime I can find(2005~). I even already renewed my CPU motherboard and SSD as the latest one. Please see the log for my current equipment detail, in short I am using AMD R7 5600, 32G DDR4, M2 512G SSD(DCS world is in drive C along with widnows), RTX2070 + 8G graphic memory windows 10 thrustmaster T16000M. Highly appreciate for your help. Kindly point out for me if there is answer already I have tried but can't find.

Hello guys Thank you for the great patch however I noticed something I'm not sure if its a bug or its me doing something wrong but when locking a SAM on HAD page while having MAV in PRE mode the WPN page delivery mode will switch to HTS mode however it does not slave to the target location and no TMS functions as WPN page being SOI are functional Viper HTS test.trk

>>Preface<< "This mission has been edited to have the possibility of using three different and most commonly used modules on the same Syria map: F-18C, F-16C and A-10 II". >>Briefing<< We are in the theater of war of the Sirya, it is of fundamental importance to hit some strategic objectives through a "Strike and CAS" mission. If we decide to fly an F-18C or a Viper, we will have the exact same objectives, namely an enemy Command and Control Center and a SCUD missile post inside a military base south-east of Aleppo. Group A-10 II will have a different target, CAS mission northeast of the Aleppo position. The objective is to hit an enemy heavy gun emplacement with the help of the JTAC. During the mission, however, information that may be useful for the success of the mission will be displayed. In flight there will also be other packages managed by the AI, so pay attention to any type of information while browsing. This is a simple Strike and CAS missions for all aircraft listed. Each flight package has its WPs available until the target is reached. It starts from Incirlik airport, runway 23 authorized with exit on WP 02 Gate Venus. Once at WP 03, indicated as AAR Minesota, a refueling with the available Tanker must be carried out before arriving on the target area. The mission is accomplished the moment you receive the notification that the targets have been hit. I recommend that you follow all the procedures, as well as being an operational mission, it can also be useful for training. Attention to Taftanaz Area, area is restricted due to the possible presence of enemy surface-to-air missile positions. Download file.miz and please leave a comment if you liked the mission. Thanks

Hey there, I'm writing this post, as I thought some newer users may appreciate it, or a sort of PSA if you will. The learning curve involved with DCS, as well as learning your aircraft of choice is a massive task to undertake. As much as it is inspiring to watch a DCS YouTuber effortlessly dogfight your favourite plane or dodging SAMs, it is also quite daunting learning how to get to that same point of skill. Perhaps you've found yourself mixing your training between haphazardly referring to the manuals, scouring forums, and YouTube videos. You're getting to the point in which you've played most of the instant action scenarios and some of the free missions, and feel like you need to take it further; and the option of multiplayer seems more attractive. However, unlike dogfighting against computers, you're operating alongside(or perhaps against) humans, which can feel like a quantum shift. You may be considering online squadrons, but nervous about your skill level in relation to theirs. Believe me when I say this, the vast majority of squadrons love to have more people share in their hobby, and take great pride in training people up. The great advantage of multiplayer, and by extension online squadrons, is the added value of learning, community, and most importantly immersion. When I first considered multiplayer, I was quite apprehensive, but once I joined I never looked back, and my flight simulation hobby is vastly enriched because of it. Learning: This can be a sticking point for newer people, since they feel that they aren't adequately experienced, or not good enough for an online group. This may be counter-intuitive, but in some scenarios, being less knowledgeable and joining a squadron to learn can be better. Ultimately while you're in single player, you don't know what you don't know, whereas when you train with other people, they can immediately identify what you need to learn, or what's not going right. Most DCS modules are extremely complex, and frankly the learning process for all of us never ends; we're all just at different points in that journey. As a newer user, you will massively benefit yourself to join a squadron as they can tailor your training requirements. Additionally, many instructors enjoy teaching, and it further enriches their hobby. The core note here is that you won't be burdening anyone from whatever experience level you're starting from, and most instructors love to teach anyway. Community: This may seem marginally obvious, but actually having people to share in your hobby is great. Flight simulation, let alone the DCS community is quite niche, it's not like you can easily have fellow hobbyists down the road. Instead communities are globalised over the internet as we're all spread few and far in between. Thanks to platforms like Discord, the value of community within a flying group is far greater in which you can jump in and talk to your fellow squadron mates seamlessly. Since I've been part of DCAF, I have made some great friends, and I enjoy being able to share my hobby with likeminded people. Immersion: At the end of the day, the value of flying with other humans rather than AI can't be understated. Whether flying with a human RIO or operating as a flight(or both!), the immersion offered is unparalleled. I'm still always impressed when I'm part of a flight of four in parade formation, as we all collectively work together. Or when you all go into a mission, splash some bandits and return to the carrier, the sense of achievement at the end of it is exceptional, because you all had to work together and thoroughly plan what you were going to do, and reaped the rewards of it. I often find going back to single player scenarios feel rigid and too 'sterile' now, since the only human component is yourself. Like what I was saying over learning and community, flying as part of a group fundamentally enriches the hobby. If you're still unsure, feel free to contact myself either here (or Discord), as well as some newer members who fly with me. This can be a good opportunity to scope out what it's like to join a flying group. We're all part of DCAF(Digital Coalition Air Force): Me: Panny#2973 Vak(halfway through training on the F-14): Aisxos#8894 Deivid(also in training on the F-14): Deivid#3419 Brody(recently finished training and is a line pilot): brodyzach#1944 You can also visit our Discord should you wish: https://discord.gg/RrzuvXXd9M Otherwise, if you're interested in my group, I fly with DCAF(Digital Coalition Air Force) as an F-14 instructor, and would love to help more guys out. We also have F-16 Fighting Falcon, F/A-18C Hornet and AV-8B squadrons, who will be delighted to take on more people. You can read about us here: And here: https://dcafoc.wixsite.com/home Or jump onto our Discord!: https://discord.gg/RrzuvXXd9M I hope for those entering on their journey with DCS, this post can at least alleviate a few concerns about the online paradigm. Cheers, Peter

Hi. On the mission night life the ins alignment is interrupted by other jets taking of on the runway while the viper is parked on the parking lot. The jet is actually moved a little as well. This seems excessive. I have experienced this on other missions in multi-player as well. According to other players the wheel chucks don't help preventing this, but I haven't tested it.

This is episode 3 of my new Short Funny Moments & Stupidity series. Haven't shared EP02 as I'm not litterally going to spam the forum with all episodes, so just find the others yourself

yall ever notice the jingle when you turn on the RWR in the viper is to the tune of the first three notes of the theme to A Space Odyssey?? idk if its intentional or not lmaooooo, imagine the engineers designing the system having watched the film being like, hehe lets put that as the jingle XD

After last update I had problems with caution lights in my cockpit. As I checked in Control Reference their codes has changed E.g: DcsBios::LED lightMainGen(0x4476, 0x0020, 12); (Before) DcsBios::LED lightMainGen(0x447a, 0x0002, 12); (Now) This small diffrences made my lights completly usless. After changes in codes they are working. I saw that my segment display is not working with code that was fine before, so I checed strings, and they are diffrents too. E.g: DcsBios::StringBuffer<7> uhfFreqDispBuffer(0x4590, onUhfFreqDispChange); (Before) DcsBios::StringBuffer<7> uhfFreqDispBuffer(0x45a8, onUhfFreqDispChange); (Now) Anyone of you had same problems as me? Is there are any other thigns I should know?

As the title says, I wonder if we are going to get Sniper XR TGP for the Viper. As far as I know it's been planned but lately on some FB group I read that it's been removed from the roadmap. Irl f-16s block 50 started getting their Sniper pods in 2007 and ED says that that's exactly the era that they're aiming for with this module. Does anybody have any info on this matter or is it still a mystery?

Hi to all, I'm Jack from Verona, Italy. This is my first post on this forum. These are the links to my fictional liveries for F-16C Viper. The liveries are adapted to F-16C in the best way that I can. They're the replicas to the original RF/F-104G based in Verona-Villafranca LIPX during the cold war. Hope that you enjoy!

This is in the Beta version, happens both in single player an multiplayer (which is a lot worse if it hits a player). There is a track file below if anyone wants to take a look. Thanks for any help. F16 A-A button firing missles.trk

Ciao a tutti! In mancanza del Tornado su DCS Vi lascio il link per la livrea che ho adattato su F16C prendendo spunto da quella dei Tornado nell'Operazione Locusta durante la Guerra del Golfo. Fatemi sapere che ne pensate! Grazie!! https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/it/files/3314527/

Hello, the F-16 right now has very poor visibility to the RWR screen, you cannot see the full top part of the display, and thus cannot see head on contacts. Moving the seat up or down doesn't help either, as then the HUD doesn't display properly. If you try to change the Cockpit camera position, same stuff, the HUD gets messed up. A perspective change like the A-10 got would be super helpful in this case.
