@imacken Thanks!!! Lol, I completely missed that part. I'm all set up now. My settings are a little different from yours with my particular unit. Thanks again for all of your help.

@imacken, First off, I'd just like to say thanks for putting so much effort into sharing your knowledge. It definitely helps noobs like me out!!!! So with that said, I'm hoping you can straighten me out with following your CM Detent set-up procedure. This may get a little confusing, so I'm including screenshots to help explain what I mean. I regard to your General Comments Section D, My problem is the throttles having different percentages when uncoupled. They are synched when coupled throughout the full range of motion from 0% behind the physical idle detent through 100% past the physical A/B detent. The issue for me is when they are uncoupled for engine startup in the F-18 in my case. Uncoupled, they both read 0%, but as soon as you move the left OR right throttle, the other's percentage changes even though it has physically not been moved. When the Left throttle is resting past the detent it is reading 2%, when I advance the Right throttle to rest past the detent, they both switch to reading 3% And when they are coupled in that same position, they both read 4%!!!!! They do not split and read separate percentages until one of them reaches 8% at which point they read independent percentages right up to 73% at the Physical A/B detent. Once again when you advance one throttle uncoupled past the A/B detent, they become synched between 73-75% and once the one throttle that was advanced passes 75%, the unmoved throttle drops back to 73%. I have zero idea what I'm doing and tried adjusting the DZ Min an Max as per your guide, but it did nothing and I don't know if that was only to fix an issue when they are synched. Any help/Advice that you can give me to fix this issue would be really appreciated!! I've managed to map the Flap axis to 3 buttons using your guide, so I'm not a total idiot lol, I just can't figure this throttle situation out. Thanks. Kevin

Thanks Rudel, changing the 1.5 GUI scale factor to 1 fixed it. It's weird because I always had that setting at 1 in 2.5.5, must have switched when I just updated to 2.5.6. Thanks for your help!!

Hello, New user here who's just setting up DCS. I've managed to change the User Theme music which is working fine, but I'm having an issue with the custom background image. I've set the system resolution setting to the same as my desktop, but for some reason DCS zooms the picture in really tight. I've attached screenshots. Can anyone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong that's changing the size of the background image?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
