Flying this devil

Or rather trying to take off in it. I feel like I'm one of those 18 years old kids called up to face his death trying to take off in this 109 HAHAHA. Being a history guy though I'm loving every crash-smashup of it

One thing though I'd love to get a hint on how to change skins

After several attempts on trying and failing to take off the DCS 109, i gave up

Locked the tail wheel...Better forgot to do that. Now ...Landing. We'll see how that goes.

If the skin being used by the mission isn't the one you want, you can typically change it via the re-armament / refuel screen. You can bring that up from the comms. It's a drop down in the lower right I believe.

Figured it out...As days go by things are coming together. One problem came up in an online server.. not SOW, don't have the guts to go in there yet

anyway I was up in the air in my 109 and all of a sudden a big blob of text comes up on my left hand portion of the screen. I had to fly with it up there the whole mission because I couldn't figure out how to get it to go away

Hi Rich...great to have you with us and glad you seem to be having a ball! You have probably sorted this 'size' problem by now but just in case............

Most of us like to keep the in game chat text as insignificant as possible because it can distract and even prevent you spotting contacts. The Information windows/boxes can be resized...you even have the opportunity to change the smallest font.

To resize an Information box....press Alt and then 'left click' in the area where the box is. The box should appear. Hover your cursor on the edge and you should get an icon that will allow you to resize the box to what suits. You can do this to all info boxes: motor controls, secondary controls and Netstats. I use the smallest font available which is 'fixed small.' Hope this helps......have fun! Salute!
