Ability to edit the manual HTS table emitter list Added HARM configuration page Ability to edit the three configurable HARM tables Changed CMS page Added 6th program Added Bingo for chaff and flare Bugfixes Reverted command delay to 200ms Fix Load / Save page functionality Important Make sure you update the DCSDTC.lua file in the Scripts folder inside Saved Games. -
Yes, its because its wrong BIGNEWY posted the correct one here: https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/289342-had-threat-page/?do=findComment&comment=4856271

DTC for DCS - new version 7.2.0 - Apache added
SFJackBauer replied to SFJackBauer's topic in DCS Modding
So with Bignewy having posted the classes for the HTS here on this thread: What I want to do in the app is: - you select which emitters you want to scan for - the app will enable only the classes related to these emitters, therefore reducing HTS scan time as much as possible. Only problem I am facing is, there is not an easy way to re-configure the HTS THRT page. It works fine for the first time, since after a cold start all classes are selected and I can only de-select the ones we don't need. But after that, if you want to re-configure (lets say in flight) there is no easy way to reset the HTS to its defaults, and I dont know how to read its state from the cockpit. So maybe I will just leave the function in the app to suggest you the classes, but let you manually configure the HTS. I can configure the manual tables pretty easily though. Also the tables for the HARM: -

The aircraft will load into the mission with the radio presets you set on the mission. This is to change things after you loaded into a mission, either single player or multi-player. Last week I found a way to read some data from the cockpit (for example, I am using this function to read from the DED whether the HARM page is available, since it is only available if you have HARMs loaded into the aircraft). I suppose I could read all the radio and CMS settings from the jet the same way, but that would be low on the list of priorities. Not sure why we would need that... What exactly is the small thing you want to change? If you only want to change a single radio frequency here and there, easier to just do it directly in the cockpit. -
How can you make them? Besides the 8 manual entries that you can input in the DED HTS page?

Thanks. So they presented this picture here. Where did they got this information, specifically, to which table each emitter belongs to?

I dont use Liberation. Can you send me a sample file of the outputs? Depending on the format should be easy to import. Regarding the markpoints - aren't steerpoints 26 to 30 reserved for markpoints? Possibly, if you load coords into these waypoints, they should appear as markpoints in the Viper, but not sure. Will test this today. -
Is this page functional? What does it do? Also, what does the classes in the THRT subpage means? How do I know which SAM falls into which class?

Hi, Given the latest release and also given that the holidays give me some time off work, I will be working on an update to bring more configuration capabilities for the Viper. Stay tuned. -

Does this happens when the app is closed? In the current version the DCS side of the app is always trying to send data to the EXE and if it doesn't encounter a listening port it may log that error. If that happens when the app is running, it is a sign of a problem, but its "normal" if the app is closed. -

Correct. I was experimenting with making the commands input as fast as possible while still working. I settled on 100ms value but it seems people have issues with it. I'll revert to the previous value next update (was 200ms). Isn't that great? I will contact Microsoft again... -

SFJackBauer replied to SFJackBauer's topic in DCS Modding
So I followed your suggestion and submitted it to Microsoft... First thing I noticed is that, even though that particular exe that I uploaded was triggering even my own Windows Defender, once I submitted the automated scan from Microsoft passed with no results... And then one day after the analyst posted this response (I didnt know it would be so fast): Now would this apply to future versions or only this one? We'll see... In any case thanks for suggesting me that! -

Pin button next to the close button toggles on top If I have to start dealing with this, then probably I will stop working on it, at least publicly, as I made this tool primarily for myself. I already work as a developer in my day-to-day job... I don't want to deal with this in my hobby too. But we'll see... -

Released a new version, reworking much of the code to prepare for the inclusion of other aircrafts in the future. Also allowing Presets to be saved and edited for each aircraft. Hopefully soon also a Waypoint Database will be added. -

SFJackBauer replied to SFJackBauer's topic in DCS Modding
You are the second person to ask this, and I agree it would be useful. For now you can save the waypoint list in different files and load them as you need (under Load/Save). Also you could theoretically edit airbases.json yourself and add more stuff there but I will for sure change it in the future, because that dropdown list will not scale with a bunch of things since its not searchable. So keep in mind airbases.json may get overwritten in a future update. -
What countermeasures program do you use in the Viper?

SFJackBauer replied to SFJackBauer's topic in DCS Modding
I see what you are doing. It was not the intention of making this a flight planning tool, but with that said, I think I can come up with an easy way to have a database of coordinates, expanding on the list of airbases I have there. Once I have time I'll see what I can do about it. -

@karpiyon Awesome! Yes, I should add a validation there to prevent same page on multiple OSBs. -

Have you checked Load / Save to a file? You can have multiple files saved for different missions / servers etc. and load them as you want. -

Let me go out on a limb and credit @Comrade Doge for the original idea of capturing waypoints using the F10 map on his DCS TheWay mod. I shamelessly (and after asking for his permission) copied his .lua code and his idea for that. I wasn't even thinking of adding it to DTC originally, I am so used to inputting lat/long coordinates using the keyboard I just wanted a way to store them and share them. -

Just last night helped someone on Discord with the same issue, it was lacking the .lua file in the right place which does the export. Extract all the files to a folder in any place you want. Can be your desktop, for example. Sure, I just need... time -
Most tactics do not belong to any specific airframe. I've been doing low-level high speed dashes before I even knew Viggen was a thing.

I can't read any info from the cockpit (or, if there is a way, I don't know exactly how) so yes, you have to start with NAV in order for it to work properly.
