I kinda figured it was something like that, and it makes sense.

I want the process to run the way it's designed to run, automatically. I shouldn't have to force anything, or lock a computer I want quick and easy access to. The DCS server program STOPS that process. I see you're trying to be clever and funny, but that doesn't eliminate the problem at hand.

I've been running the Dedicated server software for quite awhile, the entire time the screensaver never comes on, I never attributed it to the DCS server until the other night, I closed the server to do some cleanup tasks and the screensaver came on after 5 minutes of inactivity. I did some tests; there's only two things running in terms of non-background processes; DCS and SRS Server, with MINIMAL background processes (very stripped down windows install, only left installed what's needed). With only SRS server running, the screen saver comes on after the 5 minutes. Same thing with SRS shut down. Run the DCS server, no screen saver. Close the server, 5 minutes later the screensaver comes on, start the server again, screensaver never kicks back on. Is there a way to fix this?

No where. I never believed that. It's what you all believe I said. Not once did I ever assume it would be required. I never said that in ANY of my posts. You people would know that if you read what I wrote. Even in the part of my message THAT YOU JUST QUOTED says... "JUST DON'T MAKE IT A REQUIREMENT". That is a plea for it to never be required. Because look around some of these responses, some of these simmer people would be perfectly happy if Someone made it required. I know that is not his intention, but I had to say something to make sure the Not-so-simmer voice is expressed. It was ALWAYS very obvious it wouldn't be required. I just want it to stay that way. But you people lost your damn minds as if I said something like "I HATE THAT! You should remove that feature!", which I would NEVER say. I support people having the option to push their suspension of disbelief and increase the immersion as much, OR AS LITTLE, as they want. That's all I'm saying in this thread, forever. It's literally the FIRST thing I've ever said in relation to the Herc (you can search this forum, or discord, yourself), and I assure you it will be the last. I've already paid for the module, and I'm happy to wait for it indefinitely, until Someone feels it's ready for the world. Good day.

I don't even know where to begin with you... In real life yes, your life depends on a pre-flight, and if you skip one and something goes wrong, well, sucks to be you, I guess. Should'a Would'a Could'a. But in a GAME such a thing is only for the minority who would geek out on it. Remember, this is not a simulator, it's a game, I don't care how seriously you take it. There is nothing in this game, now matter how well simulated, is doing anything to further your career or endorsements, or help you get ratings. If I walked into a helicopter school and said "Can we skip the formalities? I have over 1000 hours in the Apache since it came out in DCS, and over 500 hours in the UH-60", I'd be laughed out of the office, and rightfully so. And I don't care that you think it's disrespectful of me to say so. You're more than welcome to perform ALL the tasks you wish to perform when you want to perform them. They're "niceties" that you may enjoy. But I think you think there are more people like you than you think - I again point to my example of how the HOT START SLOTS fill up way faster than the more realistic cold start slots. Because when people are being honest, they admit cold starts every flight suck. Again, people are and should be welcome to enjoy the game the way they see fit. MilSim all you want, just don't get upset when others don't want to. I'm not trying to be the fighter pilot or low level hell guy I couldn't be in real life, I just want to have fun for a couple hours after work a few times a week, and if 3/4 of that time is consumed by maintenance actions, special tooling, and calibration processes, I'm not interested. For crissakes, all I asked was that it never be REQUIRED. I didn't ask for it to be removed because I don't want to do it. I simply want the OPTION to choose my level of geekery! And I think you need a class in reading comprehension. But thanks for the advise, dad.

REASONABLY????? Let me AGAIN quote what I said. "So long as such a thing is not a requirement, I'm not even 100 hours into MSFS2024 and it's already annoying AF" Where in that first sentence did I imply that you reconsider anything? What I said would REASONABLY be interpreted to read "PLEASE DON'T EVER MAKE IT A REQUIREMENT". To which you could reply "That was never my plan, and never will be", to which I'd give your post the trophy.

What I said was...again... don't MAKE IT required. I never suggested it was, I didn't even imply it. I simply asked that it NOT be made so. Here, let me quote to you what I said, since you didn't read far enough before jumping straight into another post! Wahh Wahhh WAHHHH, it's a f'in GAME! Next time you get shot down and don't eject, don't respawn another airframe, delete the game and never play it again. Pilots that die in crashes don't get another life and spawn a new plane.

Oh I definitely and passionately support what you're doing. I fly for the Lift component of the group I fly with. This isn't ground ops simulator, its combat simulator. There's a thread on the Apache forums where some guy is complaining that it isn't realistic that you can add the FCR to the Apache while it's running on the ramp, and wants it changed to where shutdowns are required to add it. It might be unrealistic, but its a pretty stupid idea to force that upon the majority who aren't interested in such a thing. The idea is novel to BE ABLE to do such a thing, if one so chooses, and has it's moment and charm. But as someone playing a game, and not real life, if I had to pre-flight every airframe before I could take off in a game where constant fly, die, rinse and repeats are the norm, I'd probably stop buying the modules, and gravitate elsewhere. Which is the majority. Look at servers that offer both hot start and cold start slots, guess which slots fill up first. Not to mention the myriad of de-sync issues cold starts cause in most modules because of ED's inability to address those issues (and I do understand the enormous task of synchronization on the scale needed in DCS), but it's a huge deterrent for groups like ours that rely strictly upon multi-crew operations. You didn't read what I said. It's cool, it's neat, and those interested in such a thing will love it. I myself might do it from time to time. Just don't make it a REQUIREMENT before every. damn. flight.

So long as such a thing is not a requirement, I'm not even 100 hours into MSFS2024 and it's already annoying AF.

I have found that I have to hold the key-bind for quite some time for it to work, in either direction

CURRENTLY You can deploy troops from a low altitude in a hover. If you're not stable enough, you'll get a message saying they can't deploy.

MFD and CDU keybinds have been added to the Community Keybinds mod, works great with Quaggle's Injector (which makes it so that the keybinds go in your saved games folder instead of your root folder. Only Quaggles gets turned off then on with a mod manager).

Ok, got it working, thanks for the help!

I added a text file into the Quaggles zip next to the data.lua file called Quaggles Installed And when I applied it with OVGME, the data file changed to the 1.10 version from the zip, and the Quaggles Installed showed up in the DCS Root Scripts folder I put the files from above in the Saved Games\DCS\Mods\Aircraft\ folder, but I don't see them in the Adjust Controls Here is the path, I think I did it wrong... C:\Users\<ME>\Saved Games\DCS\Mods\aircraft\CH-47F\Input\CH-47F\keyboard

How do I make sure I have Quaggles installed correctly? Whenever there's an update, I have to use OVGME to uninstall and reinstall the extra bindings. Does that indicate it's not correctly installed?
