HI all, Im pretty new to the Blackshark and helos in general but im loving it. I wanted to know if there is a way of getting coords from the f10 map and using them to point the schkval at targets? Ive read a few posts and it seems its possible: "Use F10 map. If enemy units are visible there, program their coordinates into the PVI-800 target points (You be the one to decide if this is cheating or utilizing good intelligence. You may adjust your F10 map setting in the options menu). Note that the SHKVAL will always automatically track towards your Target Point (PT) when selected on PVI-800!" I use the mod "the way" to program waypoints into my PVI800 but I was wondering if there was a way to point the shkval at a waypoint or transfer the waypoint coords to a mark point without having to type them in, as this is cumbersome on the fly. Thanks for any advice.

Looks like its working now must have been a glitch in the matrix. This mod increases my enjoyment of DCS so much... without it I probably wouldnt play. Thank you so much!!!!

Hi, Downloaded new version of The Way and now its not working. I have followed the instructions by: Downloading new exe file and copying over TheWay.lua Export.Lua has three lines local Tacviewlfs=require('lfs');dofile(Tacviewlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/TacviewGameExport.lua') pcall(function() local dcsSr=require('lfs');dofile(dcsSr.writedir()..[[Mods\Services\DCS-SRS\Scripts\DCS-SimpleRadioStandalone.lua]]); end,nil); local TheWayLfs=require('lfs'); dofile(TheWayLfs.writedir()..'Scripts/TheWay.lua') It was working earlier on this afternoon in the apache, but now it isnt... I get "no connection to DCS" when trying to click on a waypoint on f10 map. Any ideas?

How do you get the way to amend the waypoints though if they are already pre programmed? Is there a way of adding it into the Abris or as a fix point/airfield/navtgt instead? I think its working now. Got to click ENT -> WPT -> 1 then transfer

Hi. Could you tell me how to make this mod work in the KA50? It doesnt seem to transfer any steering into the computer when I click transfer. Thanks! I watched the video here: but nothing seems to happen when I click transfer. I already have 6 waypoints programmed. I was expecting a new waypoint 7.

IM having this issue, adding curves made it a bit better but still feels nowhere like a hornet or jeff for example.

reviving this topic as I am also experiencing the same thing the OP is. When I move the F16 I experience a 1 second delay in response. Its as if there is a high deadzone in the middle of the flight controls. I need to apply -25-30 curve in order for it to feel anything remotely snappy. Fully loaded with bombs just forget about it... moves like a galaxy class starship. I have an x56 Rhino.

Hi, how do you use this mod with liveries you have created yourself and live on your drive? I have tried using install <path> but i get an error: DCSLM> install C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Desktop\livery\AH-64D_BLK_II Attempting to install 1 livery. Unable to get DCSUF info from livery 'C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Desktop\livery\AH-64D_BLK_II' Failed Livery Installs: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/64/: Unable to get DCSUF info from livery 'C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Desktop\livery\AH-64D_BLK_II'

Thanks .. Hm, still.. I place T00 - T10 on the map but in the CAS page I only see T1-T9. Doesnt seem to recognise t10.

I noticed you only seem to be able to plan 9 targets... I do t10 and it doesnt plan that target though.

What a legend! it works!

Hi, Thanks for the reply! THats a shame, the mod is excellent! I have tried to use the map point system, but when I come to the knee board to add the waypoints in, nothing happens. I name the wp's T00 T01 etc then go to knee board and try to add them but it doesnt work. L(

I dont think this is working for the harrier. It works ok with one or two waypoints, but for a high number of waypoints it screws up and the tpod doesnt want to track them. Not sure what the issue is. As I mentioned F18 is spot on, harrier could you look at it if you have time? i really love the harrier and would love for this to work with it!

Any ideas?

On the viggen, it does but its clunky and you can only add them preflight. Im trying to use this mod on the harrier and it seems every time i add a waypoint, then slave my targeting pod to said waypoint, the point is off by a fair way. This doesnt happen in the f18 the points are fairly accurate. Is there a correct way of selecting points in the harrier? I mostly use this mod for target identification and markpoints. Im using v 141 Thanks

Thanks. Ive seen these and tried the suggestions in game. I have a drift of 0 and TERNAV constantly gives me 1 or 2, never 4 or 5. I fly 500ft ish over different terrain. I fire my BK90 and its always off. Ill try and upload a track file

This would be amazing for viggen to avoid having to load the tape. Any support for that?

I've recently upgraded my PC. The issue was my screen resolution. The FLIR is giving me great images now in 1440p/4k

Hi all. First, let me say that this module is my favourite module currently in DCS. I love the playstyle of flying over a target area and dumping enough munitions to destroy a small town, then flying home as fast as possible. Its kind of like flying a Y Wing during the cold war. I love the analog nature of the cockpit and the radar and hud display. Having said that I cant get to grips with the TERNAV system or the Navigation drift and its really pushing me away from the Viggen. I play online with my friends and they all fly F18's F16's etc and I really need to be efficient in hitting targets or it really ruins the night. I find that in singleplayer, I'm reasonably accurate, but in multiplayer I cant hit a barn door. I don't understand how to get the TERNAV to give me a 4 or a 5 when in flight. Im flying close to the ground over landmarks, mountains and such and i get 1 or a 2 and then drift. Could somebody please point me in the direction of how to perform a nav fix? I cant really see it in the manual and I cant perform it in the jet. I was told if the ternav showed 4 or 5 it was irrelevant anyway. My BK 90's are always off, to the left or to the right, always miss, in mp. Is there an option to disable the nav drift altogether, that would be amazing. I guess there isn't. Don't want this to come off as a whine, it isn't, its just airing some frustrations. Thanks

I think im reading the range wrong. I read the "to target" range as the range of the object targeted in the TPOD, when in fact its 7m and not 23.6m. My picture is further away in fact.

Hey thanks for the reply! Yea I understand this but I was talking more about the zoom. Top image is zoomed in way more with longer range.

Hi all, First post, new ish to DCS and long time lurker. I have a question about the TGP in the 18. Specifically the zoom. Take a look at random guy on the internets picture of his TGP in action (see image 1) Then look at my TGP (image 2). Im closer to the target (allbeit the target is smaller) but my resolution is awful and I cant zoom in anywhere near as far on 9x zoom NAR FOV. Any ideas if this is a graphics setting or anything im doing wrong? Thanks.
