Congrats Thump!

Looking forward to training season! It's time to get that museum piece Akers Barnes scuffed up a little.

Great work man, couldn't have made it either without your help!

Hey Red,

I changed my settings as well and got another 8-10 FPS. That almost gets me into the double-digits!! :P I'd be curious as to how you have your video card set up as well: Anti-Aliasing, anisotropic filtering, etc.

I'll talk to you about it tonite.

Thanks for the post!.

Wow! What a great 4th of July. I just want to say how proud I am to be associated with such a great group of people. I had no idea that when I began this endeavor over 8 months ago that I would have had the opportunity to learn what I have learned, and to have met the people that I've been able to m...

Thanks all.

I really appreciate your advice. the centerplay in my Cougar is manageable, but I thinks an FSSB R1 is in my future.

Best regards, thanks again.

Cougar After-Market Mods

Thanks to all who helped in my previous thread regarding no throttle response. As a newbie I'm sure you can all understand how difficult it is getting started sometimes. Next question....Are most playing with a stock Cougar, or have they been modified? I didn't experience this with Falcon 4.0, but L...

Thanks.

Makes perfect sense. I may need to adjust detents at some point, mine are factory original and may be in the way a little.

I've just sent Burner an email, I'd love to try and work out a time to join up with you guys this week.

Best,

Todd

Thanks for all of the help. I have it working now. Lawndart...do you guys adjust the curve so there isn't so much throttle movement from idle to AB?

Thanks again.

okay...it lists my throttle axis as "Slider 0". That's the MAN RNG/ UNCAGE rotator...anyone know how to get rid of that and to se the regular throtle axis?

I'm not worth anything in programming, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rhino,

Thanks for the quick reply. I went back in to options and under "thrust" i made sure Thrustmaster HOTAS Cougar is selected. I don't have a separate option for throttle. I tried it, but still no luck. I'm stumped.

Thanks again for your help.

No Throttle Response

Hey Gang, I'm sure this is an easy fix, but I am unable to get any throttle response with my Cougar in LOMAC. I have installed and re-installed the VTB profile, and buttons on the throttle work as well as the joystick and its buttons...just no increase in thrust with throttle. The profiles are enabl...

Hey!

Thanks for the quick reply. I will try and join in on a practice in the next couple of weeks. I don't own LOMAC, I've been neck-deep in Falcon 4.0 this year. I'll purchase it this week and get the downloads you suggest.

Look forward to it!

Best,

Todd

Maneuver Profiles

Hello everyone.

First time poster. I just learned of your organization today, and it goes without saying, I am impressed.

Are the maneuver profiles available? I would love to take a look with the intent of trying out after the first of the year.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Best,

Todd
