The 25000 feet limit on the LANTIRN tgp
Home Fries replied to michael_rub's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
We had the 40k LANTIRN on our Tomcats in 2000 for OSW and Kosovo, but we also had no plans to upgrade from LANTIRN. -
The 25000 feet limit on the LANTIRN tgp
Home Fries replied to michael_rub's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
Did the Mudhen ever get the 40k capable LANTIRN (like the Tomcat), or did the AF migrate to the SNIPER instead? -
DCS World TARGET profile for TM Cougar and Warthog + MFDs
Home Fries replied to Home Fries's topic in Thrustmaster
Version 2.70 is released. As I'll be out of pocket until Saturday, this has gone through closed beta testing. Please report any issues, but I won't be able to attend to them until the weekend. F-15E Change Log: Added enhanced CMD options for the Stick and Pinky/DF Switches. Updated RHC/LHC mappings for WSO station and changed default (DF/Boat Center) to LHC. Fixed TS3/Discord and Intercom on Cougar TQS T2/T3. General Change Log: Updated diff.lua files for DCS 2.8.7.42583. Known Issues: F-14: Starting the F-14 profile with the throttle pinky switch other than centered can cause applications launches and profile crashes. Workaround: be sure the pinky switch is centered prior to loading the F-14. P-51 (Cougar): Toggling logical Gear State with S3+T6 Long will also toggle the manual radiator switch. Simply press T6 or S3+T6 again to toggle back. Updated bindings since 2.69: F-15E, Fw190A8, Fw190D9 Updated SnapViews since 2.69: none Updated Custom Luas since 2.69: UH-1H- 2261 replies

Yeah, they take darkened ship policy pretty seriously. The F-14B not having to launch in AB was huge because the AB plumes can be seen for miles at night.

Version 2.69 is Released. Enjoy the weekend! F-15E Change Log: Added optional HSI heading/course commands to HOTAS and BRT/CON since TEMPO does not allow for long presses on the MFD OSBs. Added Anti-Collision Lights to throttle (S3+T6/LTB) and S3 (shifted) functionality to Pilot MFD3. Added combinations for owners of three and four MFDs. Added finger lift functionality to Cougar TQS. Reversed orientation of parking brake for consistency with other modules. Warthog: substituted Radar Elevation with HUD Video Brightness to prevent sticky radar elevation when releasing S3. Added CTS options to suppress TEMPO functionality on MFD1 if at least three MFDs are present. Added option to set SRS Intercom to DX18. P-51D Change Log: Added radiator oil/coolant management routine to H3 and LBRT Known Issues: F-14: Starting the F-14 profile with the throttle pinky switch other than centered can cause applications launches and profile crashes. Workaround: be sure the pinky switch is centered prior to loading the F-14. P-51 (Cougar): Toggling logical Gear State with S3+T6 Long will also toggle the manual radiator switch. Simply press T6 or S3+T6 again to toggle back. Updated bindings since 2.68: F-15E, P-51D Updated SnapViews since 2.68: none Updated Custom Luas since 2.68: none- 2261 replies

I'm not sure, TBH, but I suppose it could be.

As the title says, thank you for the most flexible and intuitive skinning system in DCS. Having the entire tail as a decal is genius, as is your flexible dynamic numbering scheme. What you have done sets a new standard for DCS objects, and I can only hope that other developers follow your lead.

DCS World TARGET profile for TM Cougar and Warthog + MFDs
Home Fries replied to Home Fries's topic in Thrustmaster
Sorry, I forgot to mention it in the manual. For WSO, you need to set Joy_Btn25 and Joy_Btn26 as modifiers (the dogfight/boat switch positions). Boat/DF aft is the left HCU, forward is the right HCU, and center is the flight controls (and right HCU by default). I'll update the documentation. Thanks for the catch!- 2261 replies

Version 2.68 is released, which adds the F-15E Strike Eagle. The profile is still a WIP, so any suggestions are welcomed. EDIT: For the WSO profile, be sure to add Joy_Btn25 and Joy_Btn26 as modifiers.- 2261 replies

Home Fries replied to Home Fries's topic in Thrustmaster
Version 2.68 was just released into closed beta testing. I'll give it a long weekend for regression testing, then release to the public. Again, I just want to make sure that I didn't break the hornet. I tested a number of configurations, but I can't test them all. Here's a tease of the kind of mapping you can expect from my "bare bones" profile: Enjoy the weekend! I'll release when I get back, showstopper bugs notwithstanding.- 2261 replies

I have mine set to the boat switch, where BSF is the right controller and BSB is the left controller. Just assign those buttons as modifiers for the WSO (you want them to be regular buttons for the pilot) and you can use the same buttons as the front seat for either selected. The only catch is that for common functions (F1-F10, eject, the UFC if you have that mapped) need to be mapped to the same keys with the modifiers as well. Otherwise, they won't work when you have one of the modifiers enabled.

Version 2.67 is out. It fixes the SA342 and fixes/greatly improves the A-4. I'm currently working 2.68 for the F-15E. I plan to release a bare-bones profile shortly, but since it shares code with the F/A-18 I want to make sure it's properly regression tested before I put it out for a public release.- 2261 replies

I do have the F-15E, I just can't promise anything right away. I'd say a literal two weeks is reasonable.- 2261 replies

Folks, Just to manage expectations, version 2.67 is in closed beta testing now and should be released shortly. However, 2.67 will not include the Strike Eagle. I probably won't get to the mudhen until after the first week of July. In the meantime, you'll be able to enjoy the completely redesigned A-4E profile!- 2261 replies

Folks, I know it's been a while since I posted, but the demands on my schedule are now less extreme than in recent past. I have updated the script for the SA342 and the A-4, and 2.67 is in beta testing now. Starting in July, I should be able to start addressing requested improvements.- 2261 replies

In VR, S1 (which normally activates George/Petrovich) is the VR Zoom command. For the AH-64, you need to use S3+S1 (long to enable George, short to disable). For the Mi-24, you need to use the SC button (the eraserhead on the throttle).- 2261 replies

Version 1.21 is up. I made some minor improvements and fixes, and also had to set the static MODEX to 400 to keep the red/blue flap colors intact with the DCS 2.8.4 updates.
-
Version 1.21 is up. It updates the side numbers to DCS 2.8.4 standards.
-
Version 1.21 is up for both skin packs. It updates the side numbers to DCS 2.8.4.
-
That's true; they're the only bird in the squadron with that scheme (and modex), but I normally use dynamic numbering unless the format is way off just to allow for flexibility (e.g. if they want to run VFA-131 as 300 instead of 400). I'll figure it out!
-
Also looks like we lost the ability to have separate colors for left and right flaps. That dorks up my VFA-131 CAG bird...
-
Does this mean we no longer need to force 2 digits to get rid of leading zeroes for USMC modexes?

Thanks, Whistler. You brought up a great point. @Mik75 you may also need to set your MFD Count to 0. The profile is designed with MFDs in mind, and it defaults to 2 in the hardware. Normally you use the Left MFD to enter profile selection mode.- 2261 replies
