FC3 starts Sim in "Pause" Mode


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys - haven't had time to DCS in a while, did the DCSW update as requested this evening and fired up FC3, wanted a quick combat hop in the F15C...started on the ramp and nothing...no keyboard nor HOTAS commands are working...after some troubleshooting...seems like FC3 is starting in "PAUSE" mode, I need to manually press the "Pause" key on my keyboard to get my game going...the sounds come alive, can start the jet and all is back to normal....all my inputs via the keyboard and Hotas works...I'm at a lost on this. I'm using a Logitech Keyboard and Mouse...I have DCS A10C install, but haven't booted it up in about a month. Any thoughts please? I've tried restarting my system, no avail...same issue. It's quite annoying :(

That is the way DCS World has always worked.

 

EDIT: I can't speak to FC2 or BS1 but A-10 and BS2 (pre-DCS World) also started in Pause mode. I should think 'Air Starts' would be high annoying otherwise.

Guys - I swear, before this latest update, if I did an air start or ramp start, the jets were alive, I had total control over my Keyboard or HOTAS inputs for FC3 & A10C (I've bought all the other modules during the summer sale, but haven't installed as yet)...I did not have to "un-pause" the sim to get it going. I feel like I am losing my mind as I'm writing this...so, go forth this means that I have to un-pause the sim before requesting start-up, etc., etc...correct and....all the others pilots out there are doing the same correct? could it be that my system was un-pausing the game after loading?

It has always started in pause...always. Not a bug, and even if it was hitting the pause button really takes no effort whatsoever.

Anything is possible, but the bottom line is that it is supposed to start out paused.
