Salute Sir and thank you for stopping by the Dogz. We are indeed a group where having fun is our main priority. We do not require any formal training sessions or regular attendance. We all appreciate that real life gets in the way of the important stuff like flying. We run casual co-ops (often re-starts when people cock-up on take-off..."how long have we been doing this?....") as well as special events where we go a bit more serious. Many of our members are of a similar age and retired. We have members in the UK, Europe, North America and Canada. We fly GBS on Sundays and Tuesdays. DCS on Monday and Thursdays as regular dates. Some times you will find people playing Friday or Saturdays as well. We use TEAMSPEAK for our coms, I will PM you the server name and password. I will be on tonight playing DCS if you just wanted to drop in and say Hi to test. There will be GBS session tomorrow with guys coming on line from about 19:30/20:00. The Tuesday session starts with Flying Circus if WW1 floats your boat. WWII co-ops will start around 20:15/20:30 and will go on till about 22:00 I am unavailable tomorrow (Mother-in-law birthday) but there should be a good session but I look forward to speaking with you soon. Welcome to the pound and I hope you have a lot of fun with us (be warned some of the banter on Teamspeak can be quite odd at times!) Cheers Friar

Update 21/07 I have just uploaded and put live a new version of the map called Persian Gulf Server. I have removed a number of target installations and numerous missile sites in an effort to address the the FPS issues people have been having. I have also set the civilian traffic to low in the mission file as I think the level in the mission editor is transferred and mine was high? (could be wrong) If this does not help with any improvements I may remove the populated airfield script to see if that is the main problem or if it the map in general being too "busy". Please let me know what you find it like on the map. It seems it can be a bit shaky when you first load in, but does settle down? Is that what you are finding? Happy to make further changes if required.

@B16Enk Hey Roger - hope all is well with you and the family. Perhaps we can get you flying DCS with us (or the American / Canadian group) I am loving the Apache at the moment

Salute I have just started working on a Normandy map for the server (I have downloaded one I found already in our set on our server and am working on that). I am looking to add some tank action (as I only have the Spitfire, but do have the WWII assets pack). When testing I found I had lost the tank / ground unit sounds again and after checking found this to be due to the recent Bronco update re-setting the file names (also I have added the Black Hawk free mod to my set which can cause the issue as well). So if you have updated the Bronco mod and want tank engine sounds you will need to re-apply the fix myself and Sid worked out. You can find it here:-

Salute Update: 19/07 Added AWACs Added fuel tankers Reduced airfield planes (slots still available) to assist FPS e.g. F16 2 planes shown when spawned in but 4 available to pick.

No, Thursday mornings have stopped now Sid has joined the ranks of the employed, that's why he does FC on a Tuesday evening (if he can)

hello Fosse. I will PM you the TS password and details. We are still running GBS on Sunday and Tuesdays. Tuesdays have changed a little in that DD_SID hosts when he can subject to work and starts the evening off with Flying Circus missions. He then goes to the usual WWII co-ops around 20:15 . Sundays are alternate normal co-ops and the P38 campaign. We also are running a new campaign against the 352nd on planned dates. The next one is not in the diary yet, but hopefully should be soon

Not looking good for Saturday chaps

Salute, For anyone that has the Gazelle, I have just seen that there is a new version of the mod that re-labels the cockpit in English. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1956481/

No worries Brem - catch you next time

Any luck delta?

I know its not a competition but I can now raise the bid of damaged foot to (by association), my wife has a broken collar bone, came off a horse into a fence.

so you can not even set the control (I think the default is / ?) to the keyboard? I know when I do not have my sticks plugged in I added Q as the key when testing maps etc. I think I had problems setting the default key before and had to re-map to a different one. What have you got mapped for the F5?

are you clicking on the right device (sorry if a dum question)

I heard he wore fishnets on his head when he went to do a bank job....

@delta7 It may not be you. There appears to have been an issue with the latest release of TeamSpeak. I believe Wingflr had the same issue and rolled back the Teamspeak version. I posted a link in a thread. If you have updated TS it may be that?

DCS Combined Farms

@DD_Soapy Congratulations. I can now change the advertising material to reflect you are one of the top 6% of Doctors in America and a major specialist in all kinds of conditions. Looks like I will be able to build the Summer House Orphanage after all

Salute How do either of these dates sound for the running of the mission I have previously advertised? If this does not suit overseas Dogz I would be happy to send someone the mission so you guys could fly it in your time zone, but it would be good to have a nice collection together.

OK let's get a date(s) in the diary then. How about Thursday 20th or Thursday 27th July? I will start a special notification thread.

If anyone would like to book in to see our very own Dangerdogz Medic (DD_Soapy, he really is a Doctor) I am taking appointments. A <cough> donation to the "Church Fund" will assist with the administration. Obviously, anything you tell Soapy during a consultation is strictly between you and him (if you decide to go for the "Gold" level donation that is), anything else may be used against you should I find you on my six. That aside, hope you have a speedy recovery Wingflyr. arnica is very good for the bruising.

@APHill - Thanks AP - I will take a look.

Pictures or it never happened.....

Salute Would someone that knows please reach out to me to tell me please how you place multiple plane types on a carrier (hot start if possible) for a multiplayer mission. Thanks you in advance. Friar
