    I have a dual boot system right now; I wonder if it got accidentally pointed at THAT directory during install, but thats weird because that directory resides on another hard disk.

    Check the dtc-settings.json file inside your Documents\DCS-DTC folder. It will store whatever path it thinks DCS is installed in that file.

    Is there a way for the user to change that "CTL SHF D" combo in settings somewhere? 
    It conflicts with one of my pit keystroke and once that window is open I can't move it and cannot close it

    Many Thanks for the app it's a great asset 🙂
     

    There is an option now.

    Do you plan on adding transponder/IFF options for the F-15E?

    Plans, yes.

  4. In NAV mode, you can select any FCR mode (CRM, ACM, GMT, GM, SEA) and CRM submodes (RWS, TWS, VSR) and if you leave NAV and go back, it keeps the same mode and submode you had selected.

    In AA or MSL Override modes, the same happens for both the FCR mode (you can select only CRM or ACM) and submodes - if you leave and go back to AA or MSL Override, it retains the mode you had selected.

    The same does not happen in AG mode - it always reset back to GM, even though you had GMT or SEA selected. This doesn't make sense from the overall ergonomics of the jet. Note that it always resets to AGR (air-ground ranging) when a visual submode of munitions is selected, and this is correct. However if a pre-planned submode of munitions is selected, it should retain whatever ground mapping mode it had before (either GM, GMT or SEA).

    Track attached.

    F16 does not persist AG radar mode.trk

    Hi all

    I have checked with the team and it is correct. SA-15 is able to intercept tactical missiles and large bombs.

    thank you

    Do you acknowledge the inconsistency presented by Killshot post and tracks above? Why is it engaging GBU-38s, which is not a "large bomb"? Furthermore, why is it engaging GBU-38 but not Mk82s, which are literally identical in size?

    @SFJackBauer will take a peek a the latest version.  This has the latest iteration of the popup planner @kikaku had passed you for the viper still correct ? 

    Thanks

    Not sure what you mean by that, the Popup Planner is a separate software and is publicly available. But I am talking to @kikaku about the possibility of integrating it into DTC directly.

    However you can take the values generated by the planner and input into DTC for uploading to the jet as part of the routine.

    Nice work. I have a few suggestions if you'd like...

    • Quick upload buttons for each plane using their previous config at the main menu under where the plane is selected? If you are preloading everything, that might be as easy as dragging over a few buttons and linking the function.
    • You can change the name of the window. It's still on default Form1. I think the properties of the CS file at the bottom right lets you rename all of it but I forgot if that's how it works exactly.

     

    1. Cool idea. But there is already a long list of features to be implemented, and I track feature requests mainly on Discord to make my life easier.

    2. I am pretty sure I changed the name a few versions ago, make sure you are on the latest version.

    Love this mod, but everytime I click the DTC Window im ending up on the desktop. Not a crash it just tabs out to the desktop.

    Any advise? 

    If you run DCS in full screen, any other app would not be visible on top of it. Its not different with this app. To be able to see it on top, uncheck the Fullscreen setting to run DCS in borderless full screen.

    New version released - 5.2.0

    [General] New VR-friendly coordinate capture method. Ctrl+Shift+D will open a window while in a mission allowing you to capture coordinates and send to the DTC app.

  9. Really small issue.

    The first two default loadouts have a blank space in front of the name, which means they get listed before any user-created loadouts. I can rename/delete them but they reappear after a restart.

    Also the second one is repeated with an already existing loadout (if you remove the space from the beginning)

    Code question here, does this mod work simultaneously with TheWay?

    I'm curious about some things concerning lua. Both files define functions that have the same name, such as LuaExportAfterNextFrame() for example. How does this work? Are functions within a lua file automatically "local"?

    Yes, it works simultaneously with any mod that uses Exports.

    Any script using Lua Exports uses these functions, its not exclusive to this mod. To make them work together, each script has to call the LuaExport* defined by the previous script in a chain.

    Sorry if this has been asked before. But I just downloaded it and installed it properly. But for some reason with the strike eagle it doesnt pick up the LAT LONG. What am I doing wrong, I have tried both fullscreen and borderless

    I check the forums very rarely. If you need support the best way is to ask on Discord.

  11. Version 5.0.2 released!

    https://github.com/the-paid-actor/dcs-dtc/releases/tag/5.0.2

    https://discord.gg/saCACg99EZ

    F-15E Strike Eagle support
    This release adds basic support for the Strike Eagle. You can upload steerpoints and program displays for the front seat. More features will be added over time.

    LIMITATIONS

    - Only the pilot displays are configurable.
    - If the displays already have pages configured, the app will skip this part of the upload. Support for overwriting displays configurations will be added in the future.
    - If you experience any bugs, please report on Discord.

    New Features

    - [F15E] Initial implementation - waypoints, display pages for the pilot, bingo/LAW/TACAN/ILS
    - [F16] Turns on left/right HDPT power so that HTS and laser settings are always applied
    - [F18] Removes dependency on jet state for PP coordinate upload. DTC now correctly selects the station, the mission type (PP) and the PP slot independently of previous user selection
    - [General] Separates CommandDelay settings per aircraft

    Bugfixes

    - [General] Bringing the app to the foreground from the cockpit does not steal focus from DCS
    - [General] Do not block app from running if DCS is not installed
    - [F16] Fixes CMS settings for computers with language other than English/US
    - [F16] Fixes OA/VRP settings for computers with language other than English/US
