Salute, With the upcoming Mossie mission and Fen's requirement to use SRS for the mission I have just successfully updated the server to the latest version of 2.3.4 I also updated my own to the same version and can now get the connections shown below when bringing up the SRS overlay. A Channel 105.000AM B Channel 124.000AM C Channel 131.000AM D Channel 139.000AM

I will take a mossie. Need to do more practice and also major refresh on SRS

I had my first go at using the CARPs feature of the C130 (automated cargo dropping) this evening. Very pleased with myself as you can see from the shot below. Drop zone marked in red and manged to get 2 out of the 3 in plus one very close.

Has anyone in the Dogz used this yet and if so did it make a difference?

Salute With it being too cold and wet for Pickle ball this evening I have decided to take a further look into the new cargo functionality. This evening I have.... Loaded up a CH47 with the contents of a FARP. Flew to a location and unloaded to have a FARP location be spawned in. Returned to base and loaded up with jet fuel and Hell fires then returned to the FARP which previously had zero stores. Unloaded and checked the stores to find it now had a stock of jet fuel and Hellfires Returned to base and despawned to come back in aboard an Apache. Spawned in empty with only 20% fuel Took off to the new FARP and landed and was able to re-arm with hellfires (which were removed from the stock of the FARP) and also refuel (with the volume also being removed from the FARP). Returned to base and respawned in a Huey (yes Huey's can now cargo like the others) Loaded up some Aim 120's, too many in fact as I could not get off the ground threw some out and tried again. Went to the FARP and dropped off my load (no laughing at the back) Ideas for missions please?

Just seen this post over on the forum https://forum.dcs.world/topic/382480-dcs-max-performance-optimization-suite/

Wow...on the case FT- many thanks.

Forgot an important one (I think it was his work?)

27th November Server updated to version

Just checked and back to normal now.

@FoolTrottel Thanks - I have just seen this thread this morning and was going to post here but you beat me to it Glad to see our "Guardian Angel" still watches over us

DCS is running on the server all ok at the moment. I just wanted to change the mission?

When i connect I get the following;

I have decided to part with my Buttkicker Gamer. £30, including UK delivery only.

If it on the internet its there for ever, just like that case of "sheep worrying", happened once but will they let it go....

There was discussion last night about what in-game tactical information is displayed, for example when you kill a unit. I have discovered that although I have this setting disabled in the mission, it is currently down to each persons choice. If you want to see it the box needs to be ticked in your "Options", if you would rather wait until to you get back to bank the points and see the type of units you have killed, disable it. (see below) If enough people would like I can force it via the mission editor for the mission. The setting shown below, if added, would force battle Damage to be off (Its not ticked at the moment)

Well, we are off and running on this Campaign now. Its not cold war so plenty of nasty SAMs to watch out for. The first real session last night saw us pick up on some earlier "dabbling" and we have successfully taken back Cyprus. The next target will be that old stamping ground of Incirlik.

This post has only had 3 replies so far but lots of views. Before I start spending lots of hours doing the work on the map and the questions I need to know if it is going to be worth it or not. PLEASE give me an indication that you would be willing to take part (obviously the date it happens will be important so I get that)

@FoolTrottel

@DD_Fenrir - Thanks Sir. I will be using some nice "crossword" style clues to locations, so if that is your thing, get signed up!

Ok Chaps, listen up. I have had another of my, sometimes, wild and "out of the box" ideas. I have had an idea for a "Virtual Christmas Party" get together to get as many Dogz in the same place at the same time as possible. My idea takes the form of "Treasure Hunt". Two teams on Discord (using this for possible option of pilot to stream their flight back to the team) will be given clues to locations on one of our DCS maps, (probably Normandy). PLEASE DO NOT STOP READING IF YOU DO NOT HAVE DCS - ITS NOT REQUIRED FOR THIS EVENT, PLEASE READ ON... Each team will have a single helicopter pilot (Huey?-I think enough people have this module?) and a co-pilot (who must also have Combined Arms which can be downloaded on a free two week trial) The rest of the team members do not need the map or a helicopter or even DCS! Their job is to act as clue solvers (the clue leads to a hidden location) using the power of the internet and research and then feed back the location to their pilot to direct them to the next clue location. Once the pilot lands at where the team thinks they should be the co-pilot will exit the helicopter and be given a Willeys Jeep to drive to the "exact" clue location. Once they have arrived at the correct location, they will be given another clue for the next location and so on. Both teams (probably on separate routes) must race to the final same clue location to claim the final prize and victory. This idea has been inspired by a late eighties British TV programme (which was its self taken from a French TV idea) called "Treasure Hunt" (hopefully you can see the link to a sample TV episode below to get the idea of what I am trying to do) What do you think? Have I left the lid of the glue tin again or does this have some merit? I would probably suggest we try and run it on a latish Sunday evening UK time to try and suit as many time zones as possible. I have not started building the clues yet but am thinking the event should last about 90 minutes or so? If you think it does sound like a "goer" please let me know in a post below and if you would like to take part.

I think we have decided that there is no set timetable for these. If we get a group on a Thursday that wants Syria we will fly that, if attendees suit and request WWII, we will fly that.

Hi Sid, hope you are well. I guess it would be the controllers (which is in the "Config" directory) and skins? Others with more tech savvy knowledge should hopefully chime in. Looking forward to the day we get you back in the air with us. We have just started a 1944 Normandy rolling campaign.
