The A/G aspect of DCS is always so fun, thanks for the tips!

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Any time!

[@iammorpheus7345]

Hey thank you so much. I been able to actually use the f-16 and enjoy it with your videos. I have watched almost every video, and yours actually makes sense to me.

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Awwww thanks man, glad I could be of help.

[@russianhabibi3723]

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Good luck!

CMS is modelled and there are 3 programs for your disposal under three buttons at all times .
CMS Switch
FWD: Dispense selected Prog 1-4
LEFT: Dispense Prog 6
AFT: Enable AUTO, Dispense SEMI/AUTO Prog manually, ECM to Active
RIGHT: Disable AUTO, ECM to Standby for SEMI only
Dispense Button
Dispense Prog 5
Just modify programs by ICP and you should be ready to go.

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

I should give this a try

[@Name-ps9fx]

Lots of different ways, but the single quickest way to fire off only chaff or only flares is to turn off one or the other.

[@Sandboxcode]

Great tips!

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Glad I could help.

[@kzrlgo]

Good tips, thanks, but regarding the countermeasures- there are 2 buttons as there is the slap button next to the throttle that corresponds to profile 5. Simply adjust the profiles 1 and 5 to only release either chaff or flare and now you can dispense either or both.

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

I'll have to take a look.

[@ueehurstonsecurity8887]

thank you, now I just have to apply this. that seems like the hardest part for me personally

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Practice makes perfect! You've got this!

[@Marcin79W]

Thank you!

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Your very welcome. I'm glad the video could be of service

[@jebb125]

bind the flare button ( on the canopy rail ) to a button on the stick, I use the countermeasure fwd for chaff and down for flare, or you can use aft for flare

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

I haven't tried that yet. I'll have to have to give it a go. Thanks for the info.

[@icy6552]

i didnt know you could zoom the display like that... goddamn i feel dumb as hell... also i was always too close. good shit!

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Glad the video could be of help.

[@hidalgohouse3815]

man we moves fast..I couldnt even pause fast enough.

[@UCh905]

Thanks, Good tips. Can you share your ReShade Profile, your colors looks gorgeous!

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Sure thing, all I have is colorfullnes on, it's one of the legacy effects. I'll check the exact values when I get home.

[@marcosvilargonzalez503]

Whts de diff btwn máster armas and simulate??

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Simulate is for Training, ARM is for live munitions.

[@TurkishMujahideen]

in tip 2 i tms switch up twice to confirm the cordinates, but when i press m-sel doesnt slew to the right palce i selected, it just goes somewhere else??

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Yeah, that feature has been added since video upload, instead just hit CZ on the tgp to centre on the markpoint once you have it selected

[@TurkishMujahideen]

also how are you able to zoom in so nicely? what button do you use for it

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

I use the zoom axis in axis settings, they way I can use a slider

[@upforgrab7688]

u got smthin for the game brightness or smthing?

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Yeh, reshade.

[@777XGang]

Holy HDR lmao

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

Haha

[@PheonixAviation]

What is the reshade preset?

[@TacticalWestOfficial]

I use the colorfullness effect dialed up a little to make the colours pop
