Looking good!
I have to say, I absolutely love the videos you make⊠Content wise especially!
Thank you @damson!
Approaching HMS Queen Elizabeth in the Ireland Sea.
Not the proper way to get into a Harrier.
WTF?!?
I shall give this another go! Havenât played it in ages and it looks fun!
CAP2 had an update yesterday that fixed some CTDs while loading some weapons training missions amongst some other fixes. In this video I take a look at HARM training mission from latest build.
Link to official update:
Any word on when the Thrustmaster MFDs will be supported? Iâm looking forward to doing a TARGET profile for this, but wonât bother until the MFD buttons are mapped. The UFC would be nice too.
The December 2019 dev report said that the MFDs were next on the list, but I didnât see them in the patch from the other day.
I have no clue? You should try asking Ed on Steam community forums. He sometimes checks in and responds.
I asked for a feature request to allow import/export of control settings because right now all settings are in a single binary file. I replied to my own post to ask about the MFDs.
This sure is a slow-burn on developmentâŠbut it is interesting that it keeps goingâŠ
