    ok i had this but it was only when i crashed the plane.
    First off ensure u installed Directx 0.9b, i didnt (dunno why) so i reinstalled the game, made sure it was installed and got the LATEST graphics driver for me card.
    Scaled down the graphics and worked my way back up tweaking it as i went. And now it looks great

    Other games? Pah, LOMAC'll eat your life mate.

    Mine works with all games but then I've got a proper graphics card.

    STFU

    I'll have a proper one soon enough :E
    Looked at training missions

    really handy would be more so if they showed the right keys to press

    Took ages to get the forgfoots engines started for a trial take off.

    and the A-10 is so easy to fly just need to get the weapons sorted the mavericks seem to be loked onto target them miss :/

    Need to do weapons training me thinks.

    Right Mavericks need explaining.

    There's a bug with them at the moment, not to do with locking on mind... When you go to the loadout screen the one's listed as "TV" guided are the IR ones and vice versa. Hopefully this will be sorted soon.

    Anyways, locking stuff up with Mavericks....

    • It's easiest to zoom into the HUD and put the designator in the rough area of the target.
    • Next, look down to the TV display. Use the cursor and line up the target.
    • Arm the seeker head by pressing TAB. This does NOT indicate a locked up target. All you've done is arm the seeker head which is now scanning the centre of the crosshair for a target.
    • After 5 seconds or so the crosshairs will "jump" and centre up whatever it finds as a target. The small cross in the TV screen which shows you where the seeker is pointing will start to flash.
    • This is your cue to fire, turn 180 degrees and press F6.


    Try that - you should get 100% ratios now.

    A10s aren't planes. They are like wings bolted onto a huge gun.
