@slughead I heard back today from Thrustmaster on the whole naming of the devices. Your Have Thrustmaster combined controller and I have Thrustmaster virtual controller. it iturns out they renamed it like you said might be the case..... Here is a screen shot of the email i got.

I use Grass monkey w/opentrack, If and When I make the move to VR I will absolutely hit you up for a set of Slugmouse....

@slughead Does the slugmouse only work with VR, Could it possible used with a monitor?

I believe I did replace all files. can I safely remove the dcs2taget.lua dated 3/7/2025?

@slughead I updated both files and everything seems to be working properly although I'm not very familiar with the items for the second set of led lights but I did see all lights on at various stages of a cold start. When I update the files in my saved games scripts folder I told my pc to overwrite existing files. The dcs2target file did overwrite to old file, but my hooks file didn't overwrite the .lua files I have 2 .lua file the first one i downloaded and the updated one you just put out. My question is this an issue and should I delete the older .lua file?

Alright thank you, again thanks for the help getting the ava base working yesterday....I just started using dcs a few months ago and I'm still working on getting my head wrapped around all of this controller stuff and how the game works. Again thank you for your help and patience..

Good Morning @slughead with this update do I have to download both "dcs2target" and TMhotasLEDSYNCE" or just one of them? I'm thinking it's just the dcs2target

I hear you on that, if it ain't broke don't fix-it , right!! It could be exactly that my version of Target is new than yours. I am running v.3.0.24.618 Thanks again for your help...

@slughead Good Morning, First off, thank you for writing the new script. It Works!! The new script keeps the AVA base and all inputs work. I still don't get the "Thrustmaster Combined" controller in the windows Game controllers application and it still creates the "Thrustmaster Virtual Game controller". I have tested the new script a few times to include a complete system shutdown. Each time the script continues to work. Thank you !!!

I'm using the F-16 grip If the issue is in the target software how come yours and other users target software creates the Combined controller , but mine doesn't. That's so weird don't you think..? I have contacted TM support and they want me to send a video of the issue and the S/N of my AVA base. They said they would get back to me. I'm betting that if they do get back to me they are just going to tell me to not use the script.... lol I really appreciate your help. I'm still learning all this stuff about DCS and related gear

@CM2024 I appreciate the info, When I switched from the Warthog base to the AVA base DCS recognized it right away and all I had to do is remap axis and Buttons. @slughead Been doing some searching and reading , and others also say that target should create a Thurstmaster Combinded controller, but for some reason mine is not doing that.

@slughead Could this be the issue?

I appreciate you not giving up on me. I just tried running as admin, still switches ava base to virtual controller.

I have the lights working now, but still no AVA base with the script running... I had to edit the file name in the saved games/dcs/scripts/hooks it was named "dcs2artget.lua" I renamed it "dcs2target.lua" I have no idea how the "t" was removed, but now the lights work properly

I am using a powered hub. I tested with the AVA base connected directly to the PC, but the outcome was still the same.

1st image windows game controller, 2nd image TM target script editor When I turn off script editor is see this.

Thank you for the help and thank you for all your hard work. I am unfortunately have the very same issue as "red Panda". I will continue to follow the thread here and see what happens. I cant get the lights working and running the script causes my system to stop recognizing my AVA base and substitutes a "Thrustmaster Virtual game controller (root)". when I turn the script off it goes back to seeing my AVA base

Cool thanks

Good Morning, My Saved games folder doesn't have a scripts folder. My saved games DCS folder is on my C:/ drive and the game is on my E:/ Drive. The Eagle dynamics/DCS world file contains a scripts folder and within that folder is a hooks folder. Do I just need to create a Scripts folder in my saved games folder?
