Wow... its been a long time away from DCS and these forums. But, Im sort of back. not a lot of room to work on projects, but it is what it is. I have tried to follow instructions using DCS bios posted in a video by DutchWarthog: Its basically the same steps that Arjan the OP posted. I tried all the steps but come up with a white screen. I cannot for the life of me figure it out. I am using an arduino uno and I did change the constructor to be UTFT myGLCD(ILI9486,A2,A1,A3,A4,A0); and even tried it without declaring A0. I replaced the font file as Arjan originally described. Is there something esle in the code that I am over looking that would have to be modified to work with the UNO?

I hope you find them useful. I made these quite a long time ago at this point. ED included them as part of the base game and as such, I have not kept up with their maintenance. As for the multiple monitor thing, I'm sorry I wont be much use to you there. I know there were old forum posts regarding exports and stuff to monitors in the home cockpit threads. Could check there for an answer.

You are correct. My missions were integrated into the game. I hope you have enjoyed them :)

Game mode will give you bad habbits and make learning to actually fly in sim mode later even more difficult. As for the input file not working. Its possible that its a game mode thing. However, you can you try deleting the input file from your settings folder and then relaunch the game. It will delete any key bindings you have, but could restore that red item.

Thank you Yurgon, I do have quite a nice machine :thumbup:. I have upgraded to two screens now though hahaha. I was not aware that when creating the missions my settings file would have been included.. That is interesting. But, I am also not really sure how to go about fixing it since the training mission have been included into the game itself. They did just release a fix for the easy comms issues, but I am not sure if this fixes this issue or not. Can somebody check it out?

Thanks, I will have to fix it and submit a revision. Thanks for pointing that out... Not sure how i missed it.

Could you tell me which cold start training you tried? Was it a video?

When you create a new tanker in the ME, the tanker already has the activate tacan advanced waypoint set for you. Just select it, press edit and change the tacan frequency.

I apologize for the way late response.... I don't seem to be getting the emails telling me there is a reply to this thread... F3ver, are you pressing and holding the fire button? Just tapping it doesn't work. bkrull, See the first post for the download link to the interactive missions. The training that comes with the game by default are vids.

Im not exactly sure there snow tiger... My profiles are saved under C:\Users\Your Computer Name Here\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input In that folder, I have a profile for each separate module/aircraft. So I would assume that if you wanted a back up of your profiles, that you would need to just copy that input folder. I remember switching aircraft before without clicking the save button and it did not keep my changes for that aircraft. I have not checked to see if that has changed. I would assume not. I would just save your profile and changes before moving on to the next aircraft.

Apart from the trackclip pro feeling fragile... I believe its still a great product. There a ton of games that support it not just the ones that the OP presented.

You could actually fly the a-10 at the same time as the BS, there is not much you can apply to the hog and vice versa as far as its flight characteristics. They are completely air frames and handling.

he is refering to a head tracking device such as this http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/ Its a device that follows your head movements in real time thus giving you freedom to "look around" with your head than by pressing buttons.

Thats like an hour, hour and half north of me. :P But I have to work all weekend.

I would hope that just like in a real aircraft, you better trust your co pilot with your life... litteraly. Granted, its a game, but I would maybe hope one could have the option to at least lock their craft from a random person joining whom you may not know or trust.
