  1. How do you TURN OFF ADMIN ? Im having the same issues in XPLANE which has always worked, but like everything else if you dont use it it breaks ! But its digital how on earth does this <profanity> happen? Github is evil, and discord... its some kind of chat cabal that never allows you to login.
  2. You should save each Joystick throttle Kb Arduino device for each plane to a backup drive or location... easy to do and you can then use a standard KEYBOARD layouts for all aircraft by using the load feature. FYI . Or at least save the ones you spent a lot of time on (A10C).
  3. Define the acronymns por favor... I cant find FLAPS in the AXIS assignments (WHY ??) DCS cmon
  4. I cant seem to get the TGP turned ON ? I flip the switch but TGP OFF for the duration - and no flight so far has it already on.
  5. I resolved using the "Repair" tool - But I got errors for Specific files - I deleted them first - then had to move some files at the end. Odd responses about "extra Files" DCS repair
  6. Ill give it a try - Sounds like a winner to me. Now I know how to do the repair part. FYI I had DELL tech and Microsoft tech on my PC looking, they didnt seem to have an answer....
  7. Is this helpful ? .OLD I assume doe snot apply ... I see some errors, but nothing show stopping (to me) dcs.log dcs.log.old Im not sure Im being clear - First I was joking about hardware ! LOL I ran DCS without issues - But after running an UPDATE for DCS this started. Im not sure how windows would have changed in that few minutes. I do have a new Drive C from several weeks ago, but the logic with the DCS issue escapes me (as usual with Windows) I looked in the properties - None are checked
  8. Why would the DCS Update cause this issue ? I do note that there was a list of files "UNEEDED" so I chose "delete" during the update. To be clear the DCS loaded and ran 3 or 4 times within a 1 hour period then I chose to UPDATE - then this all happened. Windows Defender is OFF no anti virus is running. Windows is up to date. Defender asked me to click "ALLOW" for DCS during the process - I did that. I guess I need my tool belt... gotta be hardware right ?
  9. This seems to be easy to display ON SCREEN - why not do that when its a show stopper - Just a thought
  10. Never seen this prior ... cant resolve - No antivirus running. I get the same error with DCS and UPDATER... Running fine until I ran the UPDATER - now nothing gets past this. I have tuned off the Windows Firewall even. Ran Cleanup and Repair from POWERSHELL window... I attached 1 of the 2 errors they are very similar. I ws willing to reinstall (kinda drastic) but the other user said that didnt work either... Windows must be involved here - but I ran DCS 4 consecutive times - the first three loaded and ran - only after UPDATING did I receive this error. I also went thru the update process for the C++ link "already installed" it says
  11. I thought we were flying ... and the HUD is kinda important ... This is a problem from 10 years ago ... lets fix the HUD in the A10 for each and every body. Charts and Graphs bears oh my ! Solutions ? Here is something I used in an older version of DCS...Honestly this is one reason I went off to Racing Sims for 2 years ! and realized the same digital influence was at work there too. Too much "Discord" Under A10C/ . . . indicators I think Change HUD_init.lua change color ... at the bottom I like darker "font_HUD", } day_color = {0, 255/255, 0, 255/255} night_color = {243/255, 116/255, 13/255, 255/255} Change the values in K=54 instead of 73, in the HUD definitions.lua Change the font size as in the FONTS.lua HUD_ysize = 72.0 * 2 old was--73.143 * 2 OR ... Then I modified the .../Mods/aircraft/A-10C/Cockpit/Scripts/HUD/device/HUD_param.lua file to change the value (Line 6) TFOV = 170 to 150. I did this from a copy/paste into my mods folder for OvGME so it doesn't have to be done manually after every update, but do what floats your boat. My HUD is back to old cockpit visibility and is working just fine. With my old eyes, I also much prefer the old head position for reading the MFD's. As always, you may need to adjust a little differently due to your setup and personal preferences, and YMMV ? as to effectiveness, you may have to play with TFOV a bit. But it worked very well for me. Tested both with and without TrackIR with no issues.I reset my default head position to the old one. (rt CTL + rt SHIFT using numpad / and * to get the position I liked, rt CTRL + numpad 0 to save as default) Then I modified the .../Mods/aircraft/A-10C/Cockpit/Scripts/HUD/device/HUD_param.lua file to change the value (Line 6) TFOV = 170 to 150.

  12. Im not sure it matters what is Real - the HUD is no good to play in the SIM.... We are not sitting in the airplane and not all want VR - Track IR perhaps. Compare the A10 Hud in DCS to other A10 models or other aircraft in DCS... we want that. Can we change the .LUA - I did this in the old version and seemed helpful - I have to locate those notes. There is a seat adjustment button on the left of the cokcpit ... it worked for me.
  13. Soo i still see the HUD being too small - cant see the REticles half the time ??? Is there a solution so we can see HUD details like the GUN Reticle ?
  14. My clever trick was to use the CTRL Joystick YAW and PITCH to move the camera exactly where I need, with a little POV hat and ZOOM, you can put your face directly in front of any part of the COCKPIT. Some try pressing the mouse wheel and holding (didnt work for me), or other. If you goto AXIS setup and map a CTRL or ALT key with Joystick to "Absolute Move Horizontal ..." & Vertical. and if you want a quick way to look behind map The ROLL as well. The ABSOLUTE part actually moves your face left and rt up & down , not just pan like the hat switch does. ITs like you are out of your seat, and release the CTRL key and the camera stays ! While yuo are flying you can still use this because your joystick will not be flying once you press CTRL / ALT but the plane will maintain where it left off. OF course if you are on autopilot its even less problematic, or on the ground. This is actually just like Track IR perhaps less optimal. And no MOUSE ! Also here is a very clever way to Save Cockpit Angles with ALT-0 and apply them to the NUM PAD. I used my method to move the camera into position and then SAVE the VIEW.
