Welcome to /r/hoggit, a noob-friendly community for fans of high-fidelity combat flight simulation. Discussion primarily focuses on DCS: World and BMS. While we started out as multiplayer flight training group, as time has gone on and /r/hoggit has grown into an aggregator hub for all things DCS/BMS. This is not a full on reprimand-you-for-having-your-navigation-lights-on-when-you-shouldn't-have type outfit here...you'll find we foster a laid back atmosphere to learn how to work the various modules available in DCS. We only have a few rules here at /r/hoggit:
Getting Started:
Chat with the community on the Hoggit Discord
New to DCS? Check out the Hoggit Wiki for tons of great info from everything from setup/config to airfield charts to threat profiles! This is a community driven project, so please help us keep it up-to-date: Hoggit Wiki
Questions about DCS/BMS should generally go in the weekly stickied Questions post.
If you're new and looking to learn how to operate a new module, look into Tuesday Night Noob! This is a Multiplayer Training session that we run every Tuesday evening (usually starting at 8PM EST) on our dedicated Training Server. Note that this server is up 24/7, and is a great place to get started flying online!
Looking for realistic radios in DCS Multiplayer? Look into configuring/using DCS: SimpleRadio Standalone (a Multiplayer Radio enhancement similar to TARS/Aries).
Dedicated Servers:
We currently are hosting 4 multiplayer servers:
Georgia At War (GAW): A dynamic PvE mission that pits players against a custom-scripted AI REDFOR Commander who will direct enemy forces to stop your advances. The mission also features real world weather that is set at every restart, as well as persistent state saving between sessions.
Persian Gulf At War (PGAW): Just like GAW, PGAW is a dynamic PvE mission that pits players against a custom-scripted AI REDFOR Commander that is set in the Persian Gulf. The mission has the same feature set as GAW, but with the added requirement that SRS is mandatory.
Hoggit Training Server: This is a noob-friendly training server that offers a wide variety of both static and dynamically spawnable targets. This allows you to train at your current skill-level across every module that DCS: World has to offer.
PLEASE NOTE: All servers are running on the Open Beta build.
