14th is Mothers Day in US I have been informed - so how about 21st

Sunday 14th May - new start date? if you CAN NOT make this date please let me know.

read this thread through - solution seems to be right at the end https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/38653-friend-cant-connect-to-my-server/

This is what I have, although not hosted from my own machine for quite a while

Think so, I will check my BT router a bit later and check. Thinking of coming to the dark side Crash and hosting some missions ?

Sorry guys looks like this event start is going to be delayed. I asked deacon if they are still good for Sunday but he replied that because they have not had mission files for testing (I have been distracted by DCS and learning to fly the Gazelle helicopter, sorry) they would be unprepared to start on Sunday. I will try and re-focus on the campaign and get some test mission files over to them. As soon as we can re-arrange I will obviously let you guys know. Friar

I found this on YouTube the other day as I am currently into the Gazelle. It was interesting that in one of the episodes a trainee pilot is removed from the course for exactly the same issue I am having, not being able to get the Helicopter down on the ground over that last 20-50 feet. There are 6 episodes I think.

With the learning curve ever steeper on the Gazelle 'copter - I found this today -

Found this today...

Here is the link to the English labels mod for the Gazelle https://forum.dcs.world/topic/141210-dcs-sa342-gazelle-complete-english-cockpit-mod/

We will be staying away from the airfield and more in the Cotswolds so hopefully not too bad.

Salute I have asked the wife if she fancies coming to RIAT, she of course suggested making a long weekend of it. Anyone else fancy going and meeting up? https://www.airtattoo.com/ Playing DCS has got me in a mood to see some of the jets in real life and up close.

Wow crash. that is really good. could i have a copy of the picture file please? perhaps via pm?

Hi Thor The 352nd will be Axis again for this campaign. Do you have the email for Deacon? if not I will PM you. Friar

Subject to no major bugs being found in my mission files, Deacon from the 352nd has suggested 23rd April as a possible start date for the campaign. Please post here if you CAN NOT make this date I would expect the timings to be the same as the previous campaigns 21:00 UK time for 2 hours. On Teamspeak by 20:30 for briefing. UPDATED NEW PROPOSED START DATE: SUNDAY 21st MAY (14th is Mothers day in US)

Apologies for my gruff demeanour last night chaps, I was getting very frustrated. I had given myself a scenario. I had been tasked with hitting a building that was an insurgent training HQ. (I picked a random large building out of the way of SAM sites on our server.) I had made a note of the co-ordinates and new that I could create a steer point for the laser guided bombs, however when ever I tried to plug the details in, my data was not being accepted. Checking YouTube this morning I found the below video which shows the DED not looking what I was getting when I pressed button 4 on the pad? On my screen the steer point stayed in the top right hand corner ? I was attempting this after the INS alignment had finished and I was still on the ground. I will have another go later today.

Hi dave i have found that you do not need to use the logitech profile. with my x56 loaded i click in "clear" so no profile is in place. I can show you how to map all 3 modes to buttons within dcs if you like. (you add a modifier) make sure you are in the correct column eg throttle or stick me and kev are on line now (friday 9:50pm) if you wanted to jump on TS

Salute I suspect the experienced jockeys may already have this but I thought it might be useful to post just in case. If anyone want the original, I got it from here https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3325467/

Dont forget Siddy and his Viggen!

I have just purchased the F16 and the Persian Gulf map in the current sale (30% and 50% off respectively). Would it be worth us compiling a list of what we all have so those that build missions could perhaps get together and produce a scenario where we could pull all DCS owning Dogz together for "one hell of a session!" Here is mine (no doubt pails into insignificance to what he rest of you own, but its a start ) F16-C A4-E Bronco SuperCarrier Combined Arms WWII Asset pack Normandy Map Persian Gulf Map I was speaking to Fruitbat lat night and mentioned something perhaps on the Persian Gulf map? Edit 21:00 I now realise that this post makes it a bit of a pi**ing contest, which people do not want to get into. My thoughts were that based on what people have it would give us an idea of the most common map / planeset. I will leave it to the mission designers to come up with a scenario that could be tweaked if required.

Something to check later....
