That's because they constantly break the keyboard emulation from our HOTAS software to the game. I've programmed "spacebar" to my TM AVA w/Hornet stick, using TARGET w/hold press........ and nothing.... no guns. I've done the same with RSMapper and Joy2key..... needless to say.... no joy. BUT... I can reach up and push space bar on the key board, and VOILA!! guns fire. This has to be something they break everytime they mess with settings with new modules. I imagine there is a line of code somewhere in the Input folder that says use keyboard = 1 on, 0 = Off. If only they would tell us where that line is so we can change that 0 to 1. The processes they use to ensure module integrity is extremely flawed, and they could care less it seems. The update broke it, the hotfix ignored it, and its still broke. And they want me to buy more modules that are unfinished, flawed, and useless without keyboard control through a HOTAS. ED.... (Extremly Defective) JMTCW

FIXED IT.......... thanks MAXsenna...... I was looking at the wrong file... device manager HID devices......

Like I've said, this happens more often than not. No matter which program I use, TARGET, RSMapper, Joy2key, no keyboard keystroke from the DCS settings gui is seen in game. I will use TARGET Event Tester to see if the keystroke is being sent out to the system, and everything registers on the tester.. All my programing works as advertised. I've spent hours double checking my set up. And it is not a problem of my making. It's just shoddy process management on ED'S part. I would compare them to the major US aircraft manufacturer I used to work for. Money comes first, maybe it'll get fixed in the next batch, to hell with quality assurance, doing it right the first time, for the last time. JMTCW.......

Nothing should of been deleted. Only the F-86, Mig, and F-5 should be the difference. But I did see J-11 in the list. I have the F-86 and Mig-15 modules, I wanted the F-5....

I had waited to see if this hotfix would fix the problem but it hasn't. This is a common occurrence with updates, but all of the profiles for Warbirds in my hanger will not respond to my HOTAS. Keyboard emulation commands in all of the software I've got no longer work in game. TARGET, RSMapper, Joy2key.... but everything registers on TARGETS Event Tester no matter which software used. so I lose a lot of functionality in just one button press, or swtch. Which means lots of time wasted going and finding ways to remap things with dx commands, and not blowing things up in a Jug. Hopefully when we go to a public release we won't see these types of problems anymore....... Hopefully we don't have to wait to long for a fix.

LOL, crap........... this last update killed a lot of my warbird profiles. I'm really getting fed up with their Open Beta and constant broken updates. I'll give that a look to see if I can get rid of the virtual device. Thanks...

Where is the virtual stick, I deleted it from the device manager... still shows up in DCS and IL2 device.txt.

Look guys, I only made this post as a warning about this individual. Hindsight is 20/20, but you don't receive it until after you mess up. We've all done it whether we admit it or not. Take this post for how it was intended, to protect you.... from those who would take advantage of our community. Let's be civil with each other here in the forums, and flame each others tail in the air. MODS..........I would ask a moderator to lock this thread, so it's information only.

Does anyone in the community have and use one of these monitors in their set-up?

It's the same with the WWII birds too, and not just sound. They need to have people functionally check, that planes are not broken with each update. In their rush to please the masses, they get the opposite effect for the problems it always causes. Have volunteers at the Alpha level functionally check mechanicals are not broken on the aircraft assigned to them. That way our go-to rides are not broken, because of poor timetables. Once we go to "one public release", they will have to do this at the new beta level. before we ever see it. I get the sneaky suspicion they have no G.A.S. in the DCS tank for stuff that's not the hot ticket at the time. BOHICA JMTCW

I'm hoping 1C does a shore-based Marine F9F, like their Corsairs... but this looks very nice. Fingers crossed it's as good and as popular as the A-4E-C free mod. Keep at it. loving this... if only the Essex carrier was done, but that's the F4U developers too, isn't it?

I've posted this on DCS Facebook pages, but we have a scammer out there on FB selling a WW Super Taurus and PTO/PCR panels last Friday. I negotiated for just the Throttle, agreed on $360.00 to include shipping, I payed through PayPal, showed him a screenshot of the completed transaction. He told me he would ship USPS and he would PM or email me the Tracking number. Seven days later... bumpkis... Today I'm on FB looking at the DCS pages, and there he is again selling the throttle I bought off him. So I PM'd him and his memory was foggy, until I showed my bank payed PayPal the $360 I sent him.... now he's broke and needs more money to ship and insure it. From his (Niels Dan) FB page, lives a whole lot better than I do. I hope someone says they want it, ask him where he lives, it WILL be somewhere in Michigan, tell him you do too, and that you will come pick it up for cash. There will be a Ninja flash and smoke.... and crickets. So buyer beware

Looking for someone to help me out here. I've deleted SimAppPro, and Vjoy from my drive, ran clean-ups and reg-edits, looked in the game, and saved games for every instance of joystick files for every plane in the game. but the damn Vjoy keeps showing up in the settings columns no matter how many things I delete from the game Thanks

HOTAS/HOSAS/SIMPIT Discord...... all kinds of 3D printed stuff for all the HOTAS mfgs. That's where I found different ones for my TMWH throttle. I have the reversible OEM part and two other models. If you are doing the TM make sure to recalibrate it after instalation. TM has software for it.

LOL, have you not been on a carrier after an SRA? We go to sea and make sure stuff we fixed, or added works as advertised. High speed rudder drills are part of it, we were told to take para-cord and tie our chairs to the desk (AIMD/IM1/QA) in our office. Of course we didn't, BMoW would call out "All hands Take a brace.... heel to port/starboard" we would lift our feet off the deck and either roll to port or starboard and pile up against the bulkhead..... God... last time I did that was around 1995...... Point is, the flight and hangar decks were always empty.

The Deltasim upgrade is definitely worth it. On WWII birds with hand brakes... Spit, Mossie, La-5, I bind the Slew switch to the brake axis and give it a curve of 50, and Saturation of 50.. and DZ of 08... results may vary....but it's easy to develop muscle memory with it. Up/down brakes, L/R zoom.

The canopy Open/Close works w/o the mod, but the Warm/Cold air levers do not. If you fly at altitude you need to adjust those. So you will need the Warm/Cold air lever MOD for those. I would keep both in your MOD folder and activate, deactivate it when updates render it SNAFU.

Which view file specifically? file path? I'm using the open beta, download version. give me the file name path so I make sure the one I send you is the same.

Go to the File downloads on the DCS site, go to the P-51 section, and download Dawger's P-51 Closing Canopy fix..... Link Also, get this one.... Ram Air, Carb Air fix.

Depending on the A-7E or A-6E we get, the RWR display did not have alphanumeric or diamonds, squares... It was strobes, Solid lines for SAMs, ______________ Dash lines for AAA ..............., dashed lines for A/A missiles ___ ___ ___ and then airborne gun RADAR was solid and dots.. __ . __ . __ But like most planes on here, they will give you an old plane with the latest Avionics suite in it. And they did upgrade to the newer Alphanumeric symbols in the old A-7E. I made the last West Coast cruise on the Enterprise with VA-94 with A-7Es in 1988.

Your RWR can detect anything between .5 -16Ghz or 18Ghz for new systems. If it does not know what it is, it will classify it as UNK and display it that way, and will help your Deception repeater to to use Sine Wave Modulation techniques for systems it can't positively identify The AN/ALR-45Fs Threat Library memory chip, was a programmable PROM, we would get new Threat Data from the Pentagon or wherever.. we could take it (floppy) and load it into a chip programmer, and with those PROMS update the threat library. They had plug ins for the DIP style PROMS, we removed the plug in and hard soldered them in to the card. You don't use plug in chips on a carrier aircraft.. LOL. The AN/ALR-67 was build by default to update the Library PROM easily. We didn't even need to remove the chip, it's a EEPROM. and use ultraviolet light to erase it. We did the same with the FCES RPYC CMT card when I worked for Boeing's ARF at NAS Lemoore.

JB WELD..... man's best friend.... forget dogs.....

I have the AVA base, it is really nice compared to the WH. It does fit the WH base table mount. If you are worried the shaft on the stick might break get the 3D printed collar off ebay. With some of the other bases you either need an adapter, or you remove two screws from either the WH stick, or the base connector. Can't remember which.
