PHMAC

Thanks guys for your suggestions. I will try disabling the firewall to see if that is the culprit...Eventually I might need to reach out to the DCS-BIOS developers to see if they can help.

Okay!..Thank you @virgo47...That did the trick..now I managed to run in verbose mode; - mods are disabled in the Export.lua - Other mods disabled in OVGME - no periferals activated. - I loaded the UH-1H cold and dark in DCS with DCS-Coins running in verbose mode in the background and Virgo47's UH-1H profile in Touch Portal. The Huey-icon in Virgo47's profile was showing that there was connection but the buttons didn't work. I have attached the log-file - I loaded the UH-1H again in cold and dark but now with MuntG's UH-1H profile in Touch Portal. Again the profile indicates that it is online but the buttons don't work. I have attached this log-file as well. Both log files are quite long as they kept running and collecting data from DCS. Between the lines you can see that I have tested some Commands but they didn't do anything in the sim. I'm happy to provide you any additional information if you need it. Thanks!

Hi @xoomigo, Best wishes to you for 2025....thanks for your reply! I took your suggestions and tried the following: - I am running the latest version of Touch Portal v4.3 build 5 and I have downloaded your latest DCS-COINS pack with the included DCS-BIOS release. - Disabled all mods/add-ons in Export.lua (Helios, Simshaker and Vaicom Pro). I only left the DCS-BIOS entry enabled: dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\DCS-BIOS\BIOS.lua]]) - Disabled all mods via OVGME Then I only launched DCS without any other apps. except Touch Portal. TP shows 1 connected device but there doesn't seem to be communication between DCS and TP. I tried two different TP pages for the UH-1H and both didn't work. The I launched the CMD prompt and tried the verbose command line but I can't get it to work (see attached screenshot)....So unfortunately I can't provide you a log...maybe I'm doing something wrong or could this be related to the problem? Thanks again for your help! null

After a long time of use without any issues I have suddenly ran into a strange problem. I seem to have lost (partial) connection between TP and DCS. Only direct keyboard actions set in TP work normally, the aircraft specific actions introduced by DCS-Coins don't seem to work anymore. So far I have checked the following: - I was running an older version of TP (3.1 I believe) because it was compatible with my older Ipad. I initially thought this was the cause of my problem so I took a new Ipad and updated everything to the latest versions; Touch Portal and DCS-Coins. Unfortunately the problem still persists. - DCS Bios updated to latest version provided in the DCS-Coins pack. - Connection between the TP on pc and TP on Ipad works fine (green light) - DCS Actions listed per aircraft type are loaded in the Touch Portal app and I can select them to create commands. - Tested every old profile I created in the older version of Touch Portal, same problem; Keyboard actions work, DCS-Coins Actions don't. - Tested a new profile for the UH-1H (created by Virgo47 earlier this month), same problem, none of the DCS-Coins actions work, the Icon in the top-left-corner shows that there is no connection. I have no idea how to continue troubleshooting this issue, can somebody help me on my way? Maybe it's related to DCS-Bios although other software that rely on DCS-Bios (like DCSFP and Helios) work fine. Thanks for your help!

It's a mystery to me but I can't get Simshaker to work with the OH-6....I have added the following lines of code to the Simshaker.lua file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\SimShaker\SimShaker for Aviators Beta\Data: Replaced: elseif obj.Name == "UH-1H" then With: elseif obj.Name == "OH-6A" then dataTable.name = "Mi-8MT" dataTable.rpm = string.format("%.2f", get_param_handle("RRPM"):get() * 2 / 3) elseif obj.Name == "UH-1H" then But nothing. I had the same problem when the OH-58 was released. I am using a Gametrix Jetseat with the USB connection instead of the audio jack. Perhaps that is the problem. Does anybody have an idea?

Just decided to fire up the Hip for a quick spin after a long time and I was shocked by how bad the cockpit looks in the latest version of DCS. Lighting and shadows are completely off and unrealistic. Not how I remember the Hip from the last time I flew this module. I’m running a vanilla install with no mods installed. I checked the forums and noticed that this issue has already been raised and discussed back in 2020 without ANY comment or solution from ED? All threads regarding this topic have been merged in the Bugs and Problems Section and locked for comments. @BIGNEWY How is this possible? I understand this is an older module but the cockpit used to look fine. The lighting in this module is obviously broken and needs to be updated.

Thanks for your guide,..I am going throug it and making some changes to my installation and system right now. I have a question about the Compactor tool. Do I need to run it everytime after a DCS update? What about mods that I have installed with OVGME? Do I need to run Compactor on a vanilla install before adding mods? Or maybe I should compress my mod-folder before copying them with OVGME? I have also noticed that the link to OpenKneeboard’s guide to sizing is not working. Thanks again for your hard working and sharing your knowledge!

The thing is...speaking for myself...I need to be hyped up a bit into spending $50... As it stands now, I am not hyped. Hype me!...Please hype me!

@BIGNEWY Is there any information that you can share with us regarding feature videos or tutorial videos for the CH-47 prior to launch?

Speaking of video’s,…did anyone from ED make a statement that they will be releasing some tutorials prior to launch?

@Thomas_GER I have a similar setup. For my understanding what trimsetting do you currently use?

Are any of you guys using Simhaptic with the Gametrix Jetseat?

I tried this and used "OH-58D" instead of "UH-60"...but it only added very faint effects. I have three SimShaker.lua files on my computer...what's the location of the one that you are modifying?

I’m annoyed by the lack of updates for this map and the lack of communication and accountability by OnReTech. I’m disappointed for believing the hype and enthusiasm with which this map was sold to us. I’m sorry to say but I regret buying this map and wish I spent my money on something else.

Doh!...that makes much more sense ofcourse... Thanks for coming back to me on this.
