I have used Robocopy (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733145(v=ws.11).aspx) with the /mon flag.

Glad to help! :)

The files are drastically different in 2.1 vs. 1.5. Here is a modified file that will work in 2.1 (see attached). ColoredMFD.zip

@Yappo, I think you are misunderstanding the parameters. string mist.respawnGroup(string groupName, boolean/[b]number[/b] task/[b]taskDelay[/b])The group will always respawn immediately. If the taskDelay parameter is present, it will re-assign their original route after the specified number of seconds.

@STORM, I flew the Gazelle earlier with the wife on Normandy and TrackIR was fine. Make sure that you have TIR activated and good-to-go when you start DCS or it will not pick it up. You can verify that it picked it up by going into the settings/bindings and seeing if you have the TrackIR column. @NahkaSukka, have the pilot fully start the Gazelle before anyone else joins or else it will be out of sync.

@Sgt_Fresh, you can copy over your existing control setup from DCS 1.5. Copy from C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input to C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\DCS.openalpha\Config\Input). You will probably need to set up your graphics options again, but that should be expected with the new game internals (lighting, etc.) according to your PC.

Kev2go, you should not need to do anything with the Windows environment variables. I have my DCS install on my D drive. So, for example, I would open a Command Prompt and type: d: cd DCS World 2 OpenAlpha cd bin dcs_updater install NORMANDY_terrain If you have already tried this, my apologies. I did not have to set up my OS any differently.

@Kev2go, open a Command Prompt in Windows, go to the DCS OpenAlpha\bin directory and type the following: dcs_updater install NORMANDY_terrain Take a look at this thread for more in-depth info: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030

@Reflected, give this a shot: dcs_updater.exe install NORMANDY_terrain

It should be as simple as: local newGroup = mist.respawnGroup([i]params[/i]) local newGroupName = newGroup.nameor local newGroupName = mist.respawnGroup([i]params[/i]).name

I see this with ships also after the last update.

I see what you did there... :music_whistling:

country.id.VIETNAM if you are scripting. I believe that if you get the x/y coordinates of where you want to spawn the boat(s), it can be accomplished with coalition.addGroup() or MiST functions. I have not tried this, but I thought that I read this somewhere. Here are some posts that I found about adding ships where they aren't "supposed" to be: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1335571&postcount=2 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=163276 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=174125

I pause TrackIR and use the mouse when I switch to the left seat. This seems to work fine for me. Has anyone else tried this approach? It seems that the mouse + TrackIR don't play nice together.

Missing comma after the last D()?

My wife started on the Hawk. This got her used to startup checklists, simple maneuvers and navigation, and what it was like taking off and landing (she had issues with her AoA) without all of the computer systems involved.

Did I not mention that it doubles as a mini fridge? Only one on the block with LEDs!

To lend some credibility to this, I have a HAF-X case with multiple 200mm+ fans. In the front/side, out the back/top (cooler is mounted on top in a push config). This is not the ambient temperature inside my case, but only what the apps are saying that the CPU temp is at the moment. It normally hovers in the teens while browsing. Games, on the other hand, keep it around 40. I am using the Corsair H100i v2 cooler.

As I said, I will gladly dispute the accuracy of that program since it seems absurd to me as well. Here is a screenshot of the Corsair LINK temperature taken a few minutes ago:

It is about 21C in here right now (wife likes it warm). According to Core Temp (which I have running all of the time), low is 2C, high is 40C. Since I hardly ever shut down my PC (only reboots), this has been keeping track for a few weeks now. I cannot say the exact reliability of this application. I have seen it in the past at idle say 0C. I'm sure that we can agree or disagree with the legitimacy of this reading. :) Either way, you see why I swear by Corsair. I have used expensive air coolers with upper results in the 70s.

I was told that the "unbind" feature was disabled on the website right now. The support ticket was the way to go. Thanks again!

I do not know of a function that will do this. You could try modifying env.mission.descriptionText (or descriptionBlueTask/descriptionRedTask). I have no clue if this will work or not.

I run @ 4.4Ghz OC and my temp never gets over 35C. I am a huge fan of Corsair AIO water coolers. I have one on all of my PCs, and would never go back to air-cooled, let alone the stock cooler. </2¢>

Thanks for your guidance. I will put in a support ticket as you suggest.

Glad you got it working.
