We would *love* to set up a regular DCS server, but the problem is that the current implementation requires a PC with DirectX and decent graphics. The SimHQ servers are rack-based and can't support DCS products - we've tried and tried and tried. Until a dedicated server option comes out that can be run from the SimHQ servers, we will have to rely on personal servers like Wrecking Crew and Eno graciously provide.

In the meantime, I recommend hopping onto SimHQ's TeamSpeak and seeing if other folks are playing and joining up on the same server.

As Erik said, we'd love to do a dedicated server for DCS. Unfortunately until DCS provides a remote, dedicated server it won't happen. Hopefully it'll be sooner than later, and can't be soon enough.

Shame we can run 5 year old software successfully, but not DCS anything.

So what would be the purpose of the JTAC in Single Player?

Just to confirm for my simple tanker mind... In single player... there is no way for me to use CAS?
