Hey, here's the first step - it reflects some of what's on the hud but its fairly fluid so not as persistent as you'd want. I'll have a look at the A10 scratchpad soonish, and do the radios as well. Maybe have them rotate between them and ammo (like chaff/flares) in the UFC scratchpad if they're xxx.xxx format hope that works!ufcPatchA10C2.lua

@Lekaa@Lekaa quick question - are the selected modes represented by buttons or dials, or just something shown in the HUD or in an MFD? Basically the UFC can show things you can already technically see - I. E. Any lights or buttons in the cockpit, even if your trackir is pointing somewhere else. But if 'CCIP MODE' is only otherwise seen on a particular MFD screen, it won't show if that screen isn't live. So if a dial shows 1,2,3,4, we can just say 'when dial is 3 show CCIP on the UFC' if that makes sense.

cool will have a look later - If the scratchpad does letters etc I'll try and copy the apache

Occassionally I've loaded up the A10 and tried to get into it but its the mod iterself which is beyond me. Like I kind of wish I'd bought it and literally nothing else and become an A10 master but have to accept its not going to happen. What is the exact layout you'd like in each box and I can try and throw something together

You say you're running both DCS and beta - is that necessary now? If so do you have the paths set correctly in the Simapppro options - maybe its only updating the monitor set up for one install. Try removing the path for the version you don't want to use. [Ultimately I'd recommend forgoing SAP for monitors and moving to Helios. It will take a day to set up but once comfortable you can control the monitors better, and also stick the DED as on overlay on your main monitor for your sick button box, RWR etc]

Is winwing selected in the monitor settings

Has anyone tried Tobii's webcam solution (there was a beta for some? laptops on steam I think) as I guess that will be Beam's commercial rival

Try the demo for sure but afaik it uses opentrack - compare beam against the 'neuralnet' model available for free within opentrack first I reckon. Get all the curves right and it's pretty good!

Fair enough - OP try contacting Virpil, if its not a trade secret they're usually very responsive and friendly. (maybe they'd even sell those parts too, probably at a markup from their own suppliers tho)

Virpil will sell them to you individually for £2.50? each. If you have access to a 3d printer I think the design is online somewhere. There's at least one guy out there selling custom caps.

Edited above with updated Viggen to make better use of space: option1=altimeter option2=airspeed option3=Data Selector option4=Master Mode option5=shows Weapon Mode or Interval, if interval is adjusted scratchPadNumbers = shows Data Panel numbers, or QFE if adjusted scratchPadString1= e.g. L1 scratchPadString2= e.g. L1 com1= shows Fuel or F above 99% com2= always shows KMs to next target or D above 99km selectedWindows-- first 3 show afterburner stages

Here's the Viggen complete for now (could probably do radios in the same way as QFEs?) and the KA50 I updated a while back e: updated Viggen to show distance to target in Com2, still show the interval when it is adjusted ufcPatchKA50.lua ufcPatchViggen.lua

Got mine in the uk

Suggest raising a ticket, they're usually very responsive and willing to take a feature request, at least

I'm at London bridge and there's a chinook bombing around all the glass buildings and omg I would like one of these please and thank you

Disable the monitors in SAP (blank out each window in the f18 setup) and ignore its complaints from then on, you're only using it at all to make sure the ufc is running. Setup helios to run your 3 ddis and the 4th ifei screen. Make sure helios is selected in the dcs setup. Buy more screens to show your adi, HSI, etc.. e: this has been my go to helios reference https://youtu.be/U4a8iSFtkCg?si=Avtk0Fmw1L893ZU7

have you guys tried the new / forked plugin? Still not tested it

stupid question but both the button unit and the screen unit are plugged in? button lights on?

With the F15e you can also also show the ufc, say if you bought that 4 piece WSO kit but sit mainly up front. Once you're comfy with simappro there's also helios to do the same, but then also display your HSI and RWR and other widgets. More apps and more work but feels good to use all screens.

Just wanted to say thanks to the guy who updated the streamdeck plugin, looking forward to trying it out, hopefully no more issues

Ka50, f14, jf17, mig21 as well - basically anything with an mfd eg the harrier isn't on their list but works because its more or less the same export as the fa18. Don't forget Universal UFC| Works with all modules | Simple Install - Page 10 - Winwing - ED Forums (dcs.world) for homebrew UFC readouts as well, e.g. all the harrier odus.

Awesome! I guess the obvious thing would be to have default be crammed full of loget commands - Speed, AOA, VSI etc etc. Then you have all the key display indicators - Apache, F15e, KA50... But on the wild side of things you could turn it into an RWR... or the trench run computer.... [do not buy this. I don't have the money. I don't have the usb ports, no...]

Hi I have no idea whether this your issue, but crashing at exit stopped entirely for me after commenting out theway in export.lua, worth a test if you haven't tried.

@nick_thain That's very nice of you! I'm mega impressed that through the others' work we're able to get so much more use out of this kit, certainly made me a lot happier with my ridiculous purchase and actually taught me a couple of things too. For my part I wouldn't ask for anything (I get real stupid at sales time) but if you really want to, throwing a few bucks at your local cancer charity is always a good idea (not to guilt out the others, I'm sure they'd love an f4 and a kiowa lol)

Yeah that was a terrible response, absolute clownshoes. That said, a 20 minute enforced-wait is never going to happen but I have embraced fixtaking as a part of gameplay and it is 'neat'.
