Hi Guys, I just got a Stream Deck (the 15 button variant) and was bummed out that the software is not Windows 10 compatible. Found neat reverse engineered Node.js package to talk to the device directly. The existing KA-50 stream deck integration application (done by the same person who did reverse engineer the stream deck protocol) was not really maintained and did not work for me at all. So I made my own, it has 30+ pages and 300+ buttons so it can reach a LOT of buttons in the cockpit. And is made in a generic way so other aircraft modules can be implemented as well, the KA-50 is just the first one. Sorry for typos/rushed description as I'm in hurry to get ye guys the release before the holidays are over, the project is here: https://github.com/truhlikfredy/dcs-bios-2-stream-deck Hope ye will like it :pilotfly:

It is normal to have different behaviour on the axis than on the keys? When i'm zoomed or in wide the sensitivity is different when using keyboard. When I zoom in the shkval and using axis then it changes shkval direction angle at the same rate as in wide (so in wide it moves slow, in zoomed in it moves too quickly). While keyboard changes the sensitivity and in zoomed it moves at the same speed (so the direction angle changes slower). It is possible to have the same behaviour on the axis like it is on the keyboard?

Where is the file stored? I have BS2 1.1.1.1 and can't find the file location.

Thanks, exactly what I wanted to know. Now the dilema if I should build custom switch or have more time to enjoy the pit itself. PS: Nice video too :)

I get the same error with BS2. In devices.lua the r800 is still present as 48 device, but maybe the interface changed and different methods need to be called?

I'm very curious about that switch, what kind of switch is that from where you got it.

thanks :thumbup:

Multiple kit builders are reffering to TriggerHappy specs, but I can't find his posts. When I search for his name I think I found somebody else.

APU switch I tried to search forum, but still I'm not sure if it was already asked. The APU switch, can you turn it to the left, left bottom, right bottom and up? If yes, how did you managed that?

You mean inside the SaveGame dir, there is Log, crash files like *.crash? I have couple of them there. But the game didn't crashed, it freezed. So I think even if I upload the files they won't even from the same day as it freezed. In BS1 there used to be temp directory, where everything was kept, so even on loss of power you had trk file, mission file, some unpacked stuff etc... I'm trying to find this place in BS2. Because now I'm not wiser when I can't get to any log, or info what happened. Even in saved games the South Ossetia Pirates.trk is gameplay before the freeze.

So nobody knows where are the temps for BS2, or why that mission freezes?

I play the South Ossetia Pirates for 7th time. First time I didn't pass the mountain. Second time I was shoot down by Pirates, third and fourth deto. Fifth time I were thinking I will make it, I was very careful, ordered wingman just to clear it little bit before I get into range with cannon to finish last pieces. He was engaging bunker near the lake and on second engagement it stopped. First it looked like mega lag when something needs to be loader from a drive. Then I alt-tabed, task manager say's the process is not responding. So I closed it. Sixth time I crashed wile passing mountain (changed to anti dust for brief moment while engines in power limit). Seventh time almost the same as Fifth, ordering second wave of attacks to the bunker at lake and again no response. So I'm wondering if it happened to anybody else. After so many fails I would like to finish it for a once :lol: With every try I'm little bit wiser but it's starting to get on mine nerves. (specially the freezes, when everything goes well, when I crash or I'm shot down it's my error) I wanted to get from the temp recording or some info. Perhaps taking control at the end and trying to replicate / avoid the situation and see in log files any clues to the no response, but notices there is no temp as in BS1, checked install dir, checked documents where are saves located. So now I don't know If I have something misconfigured and it's misbehaving or the temp location changed from bs1 to bs2.

Sorry for stupid question, but where you got the BS2 manual? I can find only BS1.

Now it can be used as Standalone, Drag&Drop, Send to or Open With When You run it without parameters, it setups resolution, utilities (phantom fix, helios) and then runs luncher, when you are done it closes them and revert back resolution. But when you supply a recorded track or mission then it runs DCS directly (it's faster than running launcher first) and you have always setup resolution, tools and programs as you wanted and when you are done everything is closed. Very handy when I'm in mood just for quick spin and tired to run everything, run launcher, then chose what you want play, wait again, play and when you done close and revert everything. You can create shortcut for this .cmd script and associate icon to it, so it looks nice. Then you can go to c:\Users\%USER%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo\ and copy the shorcut and now you see any mission files in file explorer, right click -> send to -> DCS and you play. The same works when you drag the mission file and drop it over this script. Or associate it. I had WinAMP associated with 'miz' filetype, so I first disabled it in WinAMP, then double clicked mission file, dialog appeared where I clicked 'browse' then found mine script. Checked 'always use the selected program to open this kind of file' and now everytime I just double click on mission files and it lunch them in game. You can do the same with recorded tracks, that's 'trk' filetype. And they are automaticly stored in C:\Users\%USER%\Saved Games\DCS BlackShark 2\Tracks @echo off echo Fredy's launcher (c) 2012 echo Preparing...

Thanks, but that's not I wanted. I have already 3 monitors and pretty good Quadro card, but with network capability I would be able extend to as many monitors I want and with cheaper hardware than having 1 ultra fast computer. For example you want to have high details 60fps garantted and for example 6or more monitors. You would have get machine which would lose 80% of it's value just in first year. But having multiple machines you could get cheap mainstream one for arbis and skval and would be enough etc.... Plus having everything on one machine, to get it working with my drivers (which I don't want to change) and mine OS (I don't want install extra OS just for this game) I need to run it in window mode, when I want vsync then I get 50%fps, instead 50-60fps then I have 25-30fps. And the whole thing of Win7 is not as good for gaming as older systems. I have been user of multiple monitors since 1998 and I loved multimonitor solutions as Matrox cards, but now I have feeling that in last years the industry made steps backwards.
