What "Target" version are you referring to as "Hot Garbage"? The Script Editor or GUI? My script is awesome.

Got It running. Thanks Lxsapper.

I keep getting : Compile Error:Syntax error: d in Sounds.tmh at line 3 I actually cut n paste your code in. Just changed the folder name.

OK, So had no luck getting anything to compile or load, so starting from scratch, this is what I've got to compile and run: Sound_Play_TEST.tmc include "target.tmh" include "Sounds.tmh" //program startup int main() { if(Init(&EventHandle)) return 1; // declare the event handler, return on error EXEC("PlaySound()"); //This should play wav file on script start. } //event handler int EventHandle(int type, alias o, int x) { DefaultMapping(&o, x); //add event handling code here } Sounds.tmh int PlaySound() { system ("spawn -w \"D:\\DCS_Device_Profiles\\Common_Files\" \"D\\DCS_Device_Profiles\\Common_Files\\swavplayer Snd_TEST.wav\""); } The above Compiles and runs without error, but of course no sound plays. Edited my OP to start over.

I reported [thread=226802]this[/thread] and other problems with the controls over a year ago. =Decoy= reported it up the chain and it did get on the Bug Tracker , but It's been over a year for this Mickey Mouse excrement.

Ya, I'm pretty lost at this point. I made a .bat file that ran and plays, but I have no idea how to get TARGET to execute it.

OK. Try this. One make a .tmc that acts like a master. It has all the axis mapping and shift layers defined, calls the target.tmh, and includes any other includes you want.Other includes may be: Macros files for each Module (.ttm) Function files (.tmh) for doing special things like splitting the 2 stage trigger so only one stage fires at a time. Control mapping files (.tmh) for each Module that you can call up at will. I did this with the F14 Module. Wanted to be able to switch seats and control .tmc on the fly. Darkoz got me there with a great little example. Here But of course I made this one .tmc. I can easily divide the key mapping into 1 .tmc and 2 .tmh files. Would work the same and be easier to manage. I also believe in the use of macro files (.tmm). I have a macro file for the pilot and one for the RIO. That allows me to reuse keys and DX buttons. I just wish I could get my sound ques to work like in CTS. Hope this helps.

Thanks to lxsapper, A quick function that will allow the playing of a wav file with a button/switch action/ Put that in a .tmh file and call it with EXEC("PlaySound();"). Replace sWavPlayer with any command line player, and have it in same folder as .wav to be played. Super simple. Thanks again lxsapper. OP

Anyone got any suggestions as to where I can get cockpit dimensions for the AV8B-N/A. All I get in searches are old NATOPS. I'm looking for info on distance for rudder pedals to base of stick. Maximum deflection of stick in X and Y axis. That sort of thing.

I know I asked this before, somewhere, but can't find it. Anyone know what the maximum travel distance for the stick grip should be? And how far the stick base should be from the pedals?

As for RWin+RCtrl+.., just change it to something else. I have the Stick working but not the Throttle.

I've been using the TDC Down Action Button, on my TMWH. I just tested slewing with the button down vs. up. It seems to slew slower, but that cold also be my movement due to holding the button in a down position. I also tested the TDC Down Action/No Action Toggle. I could not descern any difference in slew speed with the Down Action toggled vs released. I assume the toggle is to simulate the holding of the button for those using keyboards. Hope that helps.

RS Mapper or Joy to Key.

Very nice. Although I use my FL for thrust nozzles and landing gear ... I never thought of combining the two zooms on one button/switch. I suppose you could get the same effect with the TEMPO command. Thanks, I'll try that tonight.

After building a new system AMD X570 system, I was having issues getting the TARGET Device Analyzer to enumerate my Combined Controller. I updated my chipset drivers and all my USB issues resolved, but still no DA. Uninstalled and reinstalled TARGET and I'm back in business. All works as advertised. Just thought that might be helpful.

+1 May be a low effort response, but how much effort do need to agree.

With new "Voice Chat", is this mod still popular/preferred? Just built a new system with DCS VR MP in mind, and was wondering if it's still worth the effort to install and setup. I had set it up before on my old system, but mp play was so bad for me, I never had a good experience with it. Loved the idea of having realistic comms and prefer that to a dumbed down chat. If this subject has been raised and discussed in this thread before, please drop a link to that post and I'll take my answer there. Thanks

Looking forward to this Module in the new year.

I asked this on thiniverse, but in case anyone here has idea. Where can I get this printed? I tried Shapeways, but upload gets stuck on analyzing file. Never completes. I'm totally new to this. Any help appreciated.

Excellent!

Starting on page 21 in the manual, Layers. Try SetShiftButton(&Joystick,S4, &Throttle, MSL, 0, 0) The "SetShiftButton" function is only used once to setup your IO and Layer buttons.

Since you asked nicely, Check this out Left/Right mouse buttons and scroll up/down. Mapped to the UI Layer in DCS.

I disagree.

My point with physical MFDs being useless in VR, is the exact point made by streakegle. In VR, you are literally fumbling in the dark. Better off to map the DCS UI Layer mouse button controls to your HOTAS, and just use the VR cursor to push buttons. I actually made my own controller for this very purpose. Cost way less than $80 USD to make. And I can add a shit ton of buttons/switches, a couple of axis, and pots. Playing on a monitor totally worth it, but you don't need two of them on your desk. If you can find a Single. you can use TARGET to map all the MFDs in the cockpit to one. Saves on desk space, and cheaper.

What is not working? Does any of it work? Post your .tmc file.
