Found solution myself - check here:

Hi all..there is a way you can use DIY method to control panel lightning knob with radio 1/2 com dials, or even crs/hdg momentary switch...The way i use it is: 1.In DCS config option first I add modifier - for example i use hat4 push button on TM Warthog as modifier 2.Then in DCS F-18 module - I assign winwing combat panel Radio COMM dial 1 clockwise to Panel lightning INCREASE, and Radio COMM dial 1 anti-clockwise to Panel lightning DECREASE That way i can switch on/off my Winwing CRP panel lights with using TM Warthog HAT4 push button + rotating radio com1 knob left/right.. The same way you can use crs/hdg momentary switches for similar purpose... With using modifier button from your HOTAS stick you can double th switch/rotar functions on your combat ready panel Of course, for this to work you have to use F-18 module and sync panel light option in SIM APP PRO....

Hm -- loks like after switching this option to dynamic i got it fixed

Hmmm...loks like after switching this command to dynamic i got it fixed:

The problem i am having, is that my commands are recognized every other time...First time command - when i say "Tanker" is recognized because i hear beep for confimation...The second time it doesn,t beep, than on third time it beeps again, then after that it doesnt beep and so on.. Does anybody knows how to fix this? TX1-TX5 buttons are set correctly, module is recognized, radios are tuned to receipient, but every other command is not recognized...

U can always program friction control lever on throttle through script target software to change gears state up/down, and even make your throttle led lamp 1-5 to blink three times...That's what i use, so i have an indication that gear is moving up/down

Did you managed to map backlights using sim app pro software?

Hi---where did you find cockpit button and switches arguments? I am trying to find what cockpit argument is for HMB brightntess knob in f-18? I am using SIMVC cockpit app It doesnt work

The part of the problem is that you need to have in your export.lua (●$HOME\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\Export.lua) file this code :

Well using other scripts together with yours pcall(function() local pw=require('lfs');dofile(pw.writedir()..[[Scripts\pw-dev_script\ExportInit.lua]]); end,nil); and this one together local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]]) cuases a problem... I even tried making yours shorter like this: local pw=require('lfs');dofile(pw.writedir()..[[Scripts\pw-dev_script\ExportInit.lua]]) This code below works fine (VC Simcockpit export+tavciew+vaicom+winwing), but when i add your code it messes with one form the below list... dofile(".\\VCSServer\\FA18C.lua") local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]]) local Tacviewlfs= require('lfs'); dofile(Tacviewlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\TacviewGameExport.lua]]) local wwtlfs=require('lfs'); dofile(wwtlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts/wwt/wwtExport.lua]])

I am having same problem but i am using sim vc (virtual cockpit for ipad), DCS UFC, Tacview, Vaicom, Winwing... Forr now VAICOM part is making mess of other exports, and i dont have a clue how to change the code, or where to put VAICOM part..:Tried every possible combo, but it just doesn't play nice with other exports... dofile(".\\VCSServer\\FA18C.lua") pcall(function() local pw=require('lfs');dofile(pw.writedir()..[[Scripts\pw-dev_script\ExportInit.lua]]); end,nil); local wwtlfs=require('lfs'); dofile(wwtlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts/wwt/wwtExport.lua]]) local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]]) local Tacviewlfs= require('lfs'); dofile(Tacviewlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\TacviewGameExport.lua]]) local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]]) Simm0 - do yuo know where is thread you mention located?

Where can i find the list of arguments?

Does anybody know what's correct argument value for F18 HMD brightness knob? The one that is used (136) in SIM cockpit app https://simvc.com/ isn't correct because it doesnt work... panel:get_argument_value(136) --[[ 5 HMD OFF/BRT Knob ]],

I am trying to fix code for exporting mfd buttons and MFD screens to ipad - and i need to find the correct argument_value for HMD brightness..Does anybody know how to find it... The one that is used in the original code is (136) and it doesnt work... function MiscPanel(panel) WriteToLog("miscPanel called.") return string.format("MS%0.0f,%0.1f,%0.1f,%0.1f,%0.1f,%0.1f,%0.1f,%0.0f,%0.0f,%0.1f" , panel:get_argument_value(49) --[[ 1 Master Arm Switch, ARM/SAFE ]], panel:get_argument_value(51) --[[ 2 Left MDI Brightness Selector Knob, OFF/NIGHT/DAY ]], panel:get_argument_value(76) --[[ 3 Right MDI Brightness Selector Knob, OFF/NIGHT/DAY ]], panel:get_argument_value(135) --[[ 4 IR Cooling Switch, ORIDE/NORM/OFF ]], panel:get_argument_value(136) --[[ 5 HMD OFF/BRT Knob ]],

I was wondering if anybody uses this utility Sim Virtual Cockpits - from https://simvc.com/ to export mfd buttons and screens to ipad... I am having problems merging export lua with code needed for this app - below are details with code needed for DCS UFC and winwing sim app pro... When i use export for SIMVC winwing and DCS ufc stops working..

Did you found how to use simapp pro finally? I am in same boat as you...

In my export.lua i have to use this code - to get SIM VIRTUAL COCKPIT server to work (exporting mfd screens to ipad)... Problem is when i use that part of code, with other exports - for example winwing + DCS UFC export everything stops working... How to merge this two snippets of code in export.lua snippet1 snippet2

And another question---how to fix export.lua so i can use at the same time: dcs ufc tacview winwing combat panel voice attack and virtual cockpit f18... Heres my export.lua, New Text Document (4).txt dont know how to fix it to work...what to move before what?

Halo.. Is there a way to see mfd screen export ed? I just found that DCS UFC cant export mfds...so i have to use another app for that

MustangSally - your solution is to use take off panel which i don't have...I am trying to do it only with combat ready panel - so when i press one of the buttons, to switch light on

Does anybody have idea and tutorial in good english - how to use sim app ? Can anybody point me how to program only combat ready panel - to setup some button to turn on lights on panel? (without take off panel) ?

How does one enter and change radio comms freqs in Ah-64D ? Is there a radio comms panel, or everything is over UFC panel? Are there any pics of keyboard for entering radio comms? I am trying to figure something ahead of release to prepare my sim cockpit

Just to say thanks - will keep my eyes on this one, i would like to use my xiaomi pad5 as a second monitor..

---- UPDATE ---- found the solution on discord ---- problem solved with manualy editing vieports file I am having a new problem with f14 helios profile on my 2 screen both at 1920x1080 resolution.. Mfd screens are wrongly sized.. VDI is streched over HSD. Check this pic https://imgur.com/a/x8UrzYA.. How to resize them correctly?
