  1. Hello, I am not if you can do this or if I am doing it wrong, but can I export F18 MFD but also Black Shark 3 MFD in the same config this goes in C:\Users\Username\Saved Games\DCS\Config\MonitorSetup The LEFT_MFCD = and RIGHT_MFCD = work fine for both F18 and Black Shark 3, but I was hoping to add the Shkval = and ABRIS = would overwrite it as I would the black shark 3 right MFD a bit smaller. Or do I need to set up two separate configs for each module? i don't know if i need name them differently? Thank you very much What I have at the moment is this _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('F18&BS3'); Description = 'Main View and two MFCDs'; Viewports = { Center = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 2560; height = 1440; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 2560/1440; } } LEFT_MFCD = { x = 3934; y = 37; width = 601; height = 601; } RIGHT_MFCD = { x = 4691; y = 37; width = 601; height = 601; } Shkval = { x = 3934; y = 37; width = 601; height = 601; } ABRIS = { x = 4701; y = 37; width = 580; height = 580; } --UIMainView = Viewports.Center UIMainView = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 2560; height = 1440; } GU_MAIN_VIEWPORT = { x = 0; y = 0; width = 2560; height = 1440; }
  2. Looking at a cheaper end throttles such as Ch pro or TWCS for £100 or less. But one option I never considered was the Omni because well it's just another stick really. But looking closed of what you can do with it has got my attention. It not dual throttle but none of the others are as well.
  3. Looking around for a cheaper throttle and the Warthog dual throttle is for £200 in the sales. If I buy the warthog throttle I intend on keeping it for years until it breaks. My other option is a cheap CH pro throttle for £100 to hold me over. Not sure what to do. Thanks.
  4. I did this on my used fighterstick and it fixed it
  5. Oh nice I will definitely save that link incass I don't want to make my own again or for my mate.
  6. Made this for my CH hotas and MFD screen, used 500D cordura. Nothing super good but it keep dust and husky fur off it lol.
  7. I just follwing a guide to setup my MFD on a screen and that worked fine but the main screen when I load into a mission the plane is squished and I don't know how to fix it lol. On the in-game aspect ratio I put 5846/1440. Not sure what I did wrong if anyone could help me, thank you so much. ====================================================================================================================================================================================================================== I fixed it and incase anyone does a search later this what I did wrong. On the config file I put the aspect in the center screen as 5846/1440, but all I needed to do put the center screen resolution size only so 5846/1440.
  8. Yeah I post on here once I buy it, but wont be until after May
  9. Yeah the f16 stick with f18 throttle is what I will buy unless something else comes out or prices goes too high lol.
  10. Long as it works good it don't matter what it looks like I would rather have more hats then not enough so I don't have to use a modifier and double up what hats do.
  11. Yeah I was looking at the f18 one as I do 50/50 f18 and A10 mostly with some Huey and viggen if I feel like it Looking at the F-16EX maybe I should get that on its own with the Orion Throttle FA-18. Best of both then for hats and duel throttle?
  12. Looking to get back into DCS after I have finsihed my degree in May and going through what out there that good for f18 and A10c. I did have ch fighter stick/throttle setup before but I think I would like something new for a change The Orion looks good even though out of stock at the moment, my conern is less hat on the stick could be a problem?
  13. Never mind
  14. With toe brakes I just use a button on my throttle to use both breaks, I know with ww2 planes it could be an issue I think doing that? I think all new kit would be usb. The pedals are smaller then I thought they would be but this great for anyone with a normal desk or other stuff under the desk. I have one of the metal folding piano stands and the rudder fits under this with lots of room to use a plastic dust cover if needed.
  15. Pedals arrived They look and feel very strong, thanks everyone glad I got them now then plastic ones.
  16. Yeah UPS says Thursday delivery date so thats pretty good.
  17. Thanks everyone, I have placed an order for VKB ones
  18. I do have the spitfire module so I will give it ago lol
  19. Do you just use a single button to use both brakes?
  20. Yeah I don't mind using a button on my CH throttle for the brake.
  21. I don't have any rudder pedals at the moment and I am using CH hotas so I have rudder axis on the mini stick. This makes flying helicopters and plane ground movement not great. I was looking into the cheaper options and seen pro flight rudder pedals I had some years ago and they was pretty good for over £100 But now with VKB set for around £160 plus maybe £30 duty tax from Netherlands to UK, without brakes axis but looks full metal.
  22. Thanks everyone I went with the F18 in the end as my mate has it already, I will get the f16 next once I get better at the basics and f16 has more updates. I would got the f16 if it was more finished but I can hold off a little while as I learn. Thanks.
