  1. Hey there. I am a total newbie to the gaping rabbit hole that is arduino. I have in mind a project where i need to be able to extract the G-Force information from DCS, run it through an arduino processor and have a servo motor function based on amount of g pulled. If anybody can shed some advice on the following, id be grateful! -Arduino components required (Bread board, microcontroller board,) -software requirements Things to consider Cheers
  2. Cheers for the info Phil. For anybody else having the same type of issue in a campaign, the work around is as follows: Find 'logbook.lua' in C:\Users\username\Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor Open it and find the section pertaining to the campaign you wish to advance. eg: ["created"] = "Mon Apr 1 19:38:12 2019", ["player"] = "Ayden T", ["campaign"] = "./Mods/campaigns/Spitfire IX The Big Show/Spitfire IX The Big Show.cmp", ["status"] = "Active", ["history"] = ........is the beginning of 'The Big Show' campaign section. At the end of the section you will find the following lines: ["stage"] = 3, ["mission"] = "The Big Show - 03.miz", }, -- end of [5] }, -- end of ["history"] To advance your position within the campaign, set 'stage' to the mission number desired (3 in this case) and input the desired mission name ("The Big Show - 03.miz") The correct mission name can be found in the campaign file location: E:\DCS World\Mods\campaigns
  3. So i just bought the big show campaign for the spitfire. First mission is great but for some reason, once i finish the second mission, my campaign always puts me right back to the start as if i had restarted the entire campaign. Its incredibly frustrating. Any ideas or is anybody else having the same issue? Cheers
  4. Hey Huzar! Ive just come across your post after trying (Without success) to make an X-55 extension of my own. I have wired everything back up in accordance with the correct wire colors but for some reason none of my buttons work and i'm unsure where i have gone wrong. I am wondering if there is any advice you may be able to give me? Cheers, and damn fine work!
  5. Hey there. So after working fine for quite a while, dcs has stopped detecting my pro pedals. Every other game seems to be fine with it and the pedals show up in both device manager and USBdeview. There havent been any recent hard/software changes to my computer either. (Windows 10) If anybody has any ideas please help!!!!
  6. thanks for the reply BIGNEWY, for some reason the situation seems to have resolved itself overnight? But just for the record the campaign i was trying to buy was the "A-10C Tactical Training Qualification Campaign" for DCS 1.5. And i can confirm i was definitely logged into DCS. cheers
  7. Hey guys when i try to buy a campaign on DCS via their website i get the message on screen saying "Requires DCS World version 1.5!", and i am unable to buy it! I haven't had any issues buying modules before and i definitely have an up to date version of both 1.5 and 2.0 so i why does the DCS website seem to think i dont have 1.5 on my computer?? cheers in advance
  8. I'm trying to map keys to a rotary using bands. So basically different keys will be activated depending on where the rotary is rotated (100%-75% = buttonA, 74%-24% = buttonB, 25%-0% = buttonC) The in game key mapper does not cater for rotary banding. I apologise if I have explained in too difficult a way.
  9. Ok so heres the test window acting as it is supposed to NOTE: keybindings on Right side set to function with Rotary bands. (Boat_Forward) And heres what it does with random buttons... (Boat_Aft) The arrow key does not function even though it has definitley been assigned as you can see.
  10. Hey guys. So im in the middle of assigning buttons to my throttle (X-55) and it is doing my head in. Ok so basically, i am able to assign any key i like to any button / axes without a problem. However, when i test the HOTAS it acts as if some of the buttons were not assigned. For example: i have Alt + Left Arrow assigned to H4 Left, when i press H4 Left while testing however, it responds as though i only have Alt assigned to it. What's strange is that it is the same regardless of which button i assign these keys to! Any ideas / similar experiences? Is this just another 'HUD' bug? :mad:
  11. OMG! I didn't realize the new theatre was finally dropping tomorrow! im in new zealand and it's currently 2146, 26th of may. Was still able to pre-purchase the map and objects package with the 20% discount! Just in the nick of time aye? ;) See you over the coast!
  12. Talking to a pilot who is currently learning to fly a tail-dragger, i was told that the ailerons are used to center the aircraft with the closer end of the runway while the rudders are used to align the aircraft with the far end. All of this is done simultaneously and feels strange to begin with but after a short time practicing, becomes natural. I perform all of my P-51 landings in this manner now and successfully perform 90% smoothly. cheers
  13. Really old thread now but still extremely relevant i feel. Just made a diagram of the Diving Oval technique featured in Darts videos posted by NakedSquirrel. Just posting this here for a bit of fun! Cheers!
  14. Cheers LURKINGBADGER. Did what you said and the mod is now working, unsure why JSGME couldn't make it work though as it was intended to be used with that programme. Anyways heres the link. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=151646 Thanks again!
  15. Hey everybody. So i'm currently trying to get through mission 9 on the High Stakes campaign. It's a night mission where you are expected to destroy ground targets whilst using NVG's. However, the default NVG's were terrible. The picture looks like something out of a late 90's computer game no matter how i set the gain level and it is impossible to see anything on the ground beyond 200mtrs. So i downloaded frenchy's NVG mod and applied it to DCS using JSGME. however, when i run DCS i see no difference what so ever. Is anybody able to advise me on what i may have done wrong/may have to do to ease my troubles? Cheers guys
