Lowlyslows

I just found all of the flight panel stuff. I’m gonna try following the open hornet guide: https://github.com/DCSFlightpanels/dcs-bios/blob/master/Scripts/DCS-BIOS/doc/DCS-BIOS-FLIGHTPANELS_Install Guide.pdf I don’t know if this will work or not but it’s something different I guess. Had to reinstall DCS, wouldn’t load anymore after messing around in LUAs

Ah yes, thank you! Although, I don't know what hub is other than that’s what I was using.

All, I posted here as well: DCS-BIOS Discussion Thread How does DCS-BIOS work? The LTD/R and the LST/NFLR are not functioning properly. I wonder if there is something written wrong somewhere that I can possibly change and fix but I have no clue how this DCS BIOS works. Does the LUA file from DCS BIOS communicate with the F18 lua to action in the game? Even if I toggle them from the control reference page it still moves the wrong switch. The 2 codes below are loaded separately. LTD/R code pushed to the arduino: DcsBios::Switch2Pos ltdRArm("LTD_R_ARM", 10); //this code moves the LST/NFLR LST/NFLR code pushed to the arduino: DcsBios::Switch2Pos lstNflrSw("LST_NFLR_SW", 10); //this code moves the FLIR I have tried as much as my ability is able to at this moment. I ended up messing up DCS so bad it won't load anymore and now I gotta figure that out. Currently have a repair going, if that doesn't work, I will reinstall. Still determined to figure out why I can't get the correct switch to move. Is anyone else seeing the same issue?

Is Flightpanels the same thing as DCS-BIOS?

Hey! 1) I am using Hub. 2) I did try it and it didn’t do anything with the LST code on either switch. 3) not so worried about that part yet until I can get the switch to function in the game. However, I am following the warthog project for similar guidance. could this be a Lua issue on the module itself? Sorry, I’m new to this level/coding.

Hey all! I am a building a F18 sim pit. I am trying to get the LTD/R to function with a toggle switch. I built the toggle switch into a functioning magnetic switch. The switch is a momentary on switch which is held in place by a magnet that is controlled by a MOSFET board. All of that tested great except the switch in the simulator. F18 Module: I enter the code: DcsBios::Switch2Pos ltdRArm("LTD_R_ARM", PIN); I change the PIN to the correct pin on the arduino UNO board. When I use the switch in moves the LST/NFLR switch in the simulator. thoughts?

Any update on getting Mode 1 to show up? It just says ACL Ready with T/C under it at 6nm

I could not get it to work in SPA but I was able to get it to work in NAV mode. I selected BX1 and then (with the radar off) did T1 and then TV over the target. I then was able to turn around and deploy the cluster bomb. I don't know enough if this is wrong to do. Thoughts?

I’ll give this a shot tomorrow. Thanks again!

Ok, and these are now mark points or am I updating navigation points? thanks a ton!

Could you explain how you got it to work? I'm not sure of the process. Do you do T1 to ready the system and then TV when you're over the target? After that what do you click? Do I just set SPA on master mode and then click T1?

Maybe, that or I am not doing this correctly

Thanks for the response. I am completely lost here. I am orbiting over an airfield. I set the master mode to SPA. I click T1, TV, T0 and nothing happens. I read the DCS manual, and the chucks guide and I am not seeing what any guidance for this. What I want to do is recon a target area, find the targets, overfly them and then make a mark point, then come back with cluster bombs or mavericks. Thanks for the help!

New to the Viggen and trying to follow this. If you're not using the radar then what do you press while in SPA mode and when you overfly the target to create the markpoint?

This is exactly what I needed, thank you!

Does the 64 have the ability to point track and/or follow a moving target on it's own? As of right now, all I can figure out to do is store a target and set that as my acquisition. Thanks

F16 for life! Sorry to hear I'm not the only one..

Hey! So I plugged in 3 targets near each other into the TSD. I set my ACQ to T01 and I see the Cue LOS Reticle move to the target. Question: How do I get my weapon system to point and hit that target? Guns or Hellfires? It seems to me that I have to use George but he only generates a list. Thanks!

Hey all, It's 20 March 2022: I have had zero issues with my quest 2 prior to the recent update last week. After playing for a bit, my quest 2 now becomes choppy. In order to correct, I have to hit the Oculus button on the right controller and go view a webpage or something other than DCS and that fixes it, for a bit. The problem will eventually come back. Anyone else experience this since the recent update?

Hey All, Trying to figure this one out. I have a flight of AI Harriers that takeoff and then land. I can't seem to figure out how to get them to refuel and then takeoff again using the ME alone. What can I do to make this happen? Thanks

Out of me league!!! Glad it can be scripted

No I can’t. thanks!

Hey all! I created a mission that has 18 Pre-Briefed targets that 2 harriers are to attack. Once in the mission, both myself and a buddy load the target points from the F10 map with Rshift+Ralt*8. Process here: AV8B Harrier ATHS points - Mission Editor Discussion and Questions - ED Forums (eagle.ru). 16 targets load for both of us and he deletes the last 8 targets and I delete the first 8 targets. He is good to go as they are already assigned as T1-T8. However, I am having a terrible time trying to figure out how to reassign target numbers for my targets. See images. Any ideas?
