Hi! I'm working on a mission where a couple os Kamovs are attacking an advanced enemy camp. It is suposed to be a surprised attack and want to trigger a new set of actions as soon as camp is attacked or if the defenders detect the attackers. DCS has "Bomb in Zone" and "Missile in Zone" as trigger condition, that could be very usefull. But for whatever reason, guns or rockets in zone don't have their own "trigger." So I can't use weapons in zone as a trigger. I've set "Alarm state" of some defenders to Auto, so I suposed that as soon as they are attacked or attackers are detected, their alarm state would change to red. Can I use this change in alarm state as a trigger? If not, any one has a better suggestion to accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

Where can I find that file? There's this folder, "C:\Program Files (x86)\SimShaker\SimShaker for Aviators Beta\Data\dcs-export-core\" and inside there is a "ExportCore.lua". Is that it? ExportCore.lua

Hi, I need help. Been away from DCS for a few months and now simshaker doen't work, It works flawlessly on MSFS and sound module is working also because on test button it works, But it doesn't do nothing in DCS. It was working without any problem before. Thsnks.

Thanks Grimes. I didn't want it to change anything but to have a tool to plan and help briefing with my squad. Its sad that DCS could have so many small features, some of them are already almost there, to help and improve realistic gameplay but lately it seems that is more focuse on eyecandy and movie making features. They are planning a fancy briefing room to supercarrier, but we can't use a simple map to plan our missions with our squad.

Hi all, How to use "mission planner" on online missions? Thanks.

Can someone post some pictures?

Is it possible to use Air.Boss script from Moose with this campaign? I know we can edit mission on mission editor prior to flight but this script requires to manually open the mission file and put in there an entire folder with sounds. Is this possible? Thanks.

Done!! Downloaded Bios from master branch and is finally working. I can't thank you enough BlackLibrary for your help.

I just did a DCS repair and installed bios from this link and problem remains. https://github.com/dcs-bios/dcs-bios/releases/ Inside DCS panels I can access to DCS bios comands to change my profile and when I use switches or gear handle it shows moving on DCS panels but it just doesn't comunicate with DCS. I don't know if this helps but here are last lines from DCSFlightpanels_error_log.txt. "20.07.2020 12:13:43 version : 1.0.186.5254 9216 Custom message = [DCSBIOS.SendDataFunction()] System.ObjectDisposedException Cannot access a disposed object.

Thanks alot for your help, BlackLibrary. But what do you mean by master branch? Are you talking about bios? Isn't the one from the link I posted the correct one?

I use bios from link posted on first post. https://github.com/DCSFlightpanels/dcs-bios/tree/master/Scripts/DCS-BIOS Until last dcs patch I didn't have any problem with DCS panels and I didn't do anything to my DCS other than patch itself. I didn't add any other mod or change any file. I thought that DCS Bios was broken by patch itself but it seems I'm the only one having this problem.

Thanks Aviramad, but unfortunatly that didn't work. I can get DCS panels to work but just as key emulator. Any of my Bios profiles failed to work after this week update. Already redownloaded lates BIOS.lua but nothing. All of my profiles worked without any problems until now.

Since this week update I an error message. It continues to work with sounds and everything but I have one or two error messages to go through. Unfortunatly I forget to screenshot the message but I'll do it tomorrow.

I have this problem aswell. Just hope it gets sorted soon.

Since last update, my Switch Panel (PZ55) profile doesn't work anymore with F-18C. I already downloaded last F-18c lua file but it still doesn't do anything in game. Anyone with this problem?

Yes, notice the same.

I'm using simshaker with sound module and my Mig21 also lost engine rumble. Afterburner effect is working although with low volume. Already crank it up to 100% and its still to low. G Feeling effect also has a problem. Its to intrusive. It kickes even on level flight with zero Gs. This effect should apear only above high where airframes start to shake.

Has nothing to do with NTTR. Its something new from today's patch.

I was about to post a picture with that same problem. Obviously I also have this problem. Already tried increase textures from medium to high and the problem presists.

Not true. With a sound transducer, a second sound card and software "Simshaker for aviators" I can feel wing buffet in my butt like real pilots and also cannons, motor rumble, afterburner engaging, ground bumps, flaps and other control surface actuating as many other effects. All these effects are controlled by DCS realtime fisics and can be individual configurated. Total kit costs is around 100 euros.

Thanks. I have to try it. If they consider static airplanes as "fortification" like any other static object, then I still have a problem because I have a high dense populated airbase with alot of static objects and I want them to focus only on parked planes but If they treat static planes as regular air targets then I can work with that. I just have to uncheck all other options from list. I'll try tonight and report back so that others can learn. Thanks anyway for your help.

Thanks for the tip Blech but unfortunatly on "Search and Engage in Zone" list, there's no static planes. If that list had more units or object types and if that "Search and Engage in Zone" was available on more types ofground attack roles, it would make DCS alot more suitible to realistic mission types.

Thanks Exorcet. It would be nice if we could have an advance command like "split" and "rejoin". Lets hope AIs receive some improvements because right now DCS is much suitible to aircraft training and simple dogfights arena servers than complex and realistic combat flight.

Hi, I want a group of 4 F-5Es armed with rockets and an iron bomb to attack various planes parked at this airbase. I use the advance action "bombing" and create multiple "bombing" actions to set multiple targets. I didn't check the "GROUP ATTACK" option so that each plane attack each target. My problem is that instead of attacking targets at the same time, they just attack one target of a time and the remaining planes of the group, while the attack is being performed by one of them, are just flying around doing nothing. This way they are getting alot of time to preform the attack and getting themselfs very vulnerable to ground defenses. Is there a way to make them to attack simultaneous to do an expedict job? Do I have to create 4 separate groups with one plane each? Thank you.
