  1. That's very cool. I'll have to play around with it this weekend. I can tweak some stuff but this looks like it's above my abilities. So I posed it to the community and devs, figured someone smarter than me could do something with it. BTW, ECM tool is great, especially since you can move the program from 2.0 to 1.5 and such. That's awsome. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  2. Dear Devs, I came up with an idea that I'd figure I'd throw out there. I remember Cpt Smiley sending out the .Lua file that corrected the Kneeboard page after an update a little while back and it had me thinking. How cool would it be to have another (fourth) kneeboard page with an editable lua so we could place information into the in game cockpit that is both editable and yet persistent across multiple games. Here is an example: The utility cannot be overstated. Here are just a few uses 1) As shown, pertinent information for a flight. Mission designers could provide this file to players so they share it 2) In MP servers like Blue flag, players could plug in well known points (cities/farps etc) or common points of interest (CAP points, Rendezvous points etc) 3) Hotkey commands which are easily viewable (with the press of one button) 4) Listing important frequencies The page would be a very useful notepad customizable for each player. I'm aware that one could do nearly the same thing currently by making a photo and adding it to the kneeboard as well. I got this idea after using this tool to edit the aircraft's ECM programs https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2262585/ Just my 2 cents, cheers
  3. To add to what Jojo said, think about where that laser "spot" is. Think of it as a flashlight beam. The bomb needs to be able to see that beam on its way down or it will never track it. I usually place the A-10 below and behind me, offset maybe 20-45 degrees but not much more. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  4. A long time ago, before the ins was working there was. I thought they took it away though. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  5. So, just my two cents If I were going to change something, I'd have the entire jet have a more defined gradient lift to dark from nose to tail. It looks good but I think that might give you a bit more organized look to it. But hey man, I've been there. You'll never really feel finished. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  6. Sweet. Looks much better. Good job. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  7. Look in the dynamic numbering system thread. There is a solid post there on how to disable it Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  8. Try designating closer to the target, try steeper dives (like 30* just to test) check your winds. Most importantly, make sure your speed isn't super crazy. Like 350-480. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  9. Hold onto the file, I'll help you troubleshoot it tomorrow. Sounds like you didn't paste the right thing in there Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  10. How is that not the point? What information are you missing that you want? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  11. Haha. I just pointed you to the thread. I had the same question. If you check out earlier in the thread, one guy put out a file on how to make the numbering system work on any skin. I plan on testing that to make my skins work Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  12. There are none just on the map. The mission designer needs to place one.duting mission design. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  13. In the downloaded skin, find the description.lua add this code and replace the <texname> with the name of the skin. It will disable the dynamic numbering system https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3039840 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  14. Yeah, a status update on this one would be nice. This, to me at least, is a big ticket item Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  15. Yes, that's what I'm trying to do. I'll check oit it later and get back. Thank you, much. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  16. Haha. Same experience, same skin, same result. I think we all know the skins need to be modified, we are asking if anyone knows how to modify them to disable the numbering system so we can use the skins we downloaded. I don't mind doing the work, I just want my skins to work Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  17. I haven't had any issues with it at all. If just check a simple mission with no weather or stores. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  18. What's it doing, what is different in the menu, have you tried to repair your install? CaptSmiley is very helpful, but he needs to know as much about the issue as he can. Sounds like something in your install though. Is not a wide spread problem. Try to repair. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  19. I, Second that. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
  20. So the LUA file is here (mine is installed) ...\_MODS\NVG Mod M-2000 - Werewolf\Mods\aircraft\M-2000C\Input\M-2000C\keyboard The file is Default.lua The lines you need are under the -- Cockpit Displays & Illumination section NOTE: they won't be exactly this, I have mine shifted as I already had page up and down assigned. So, what you should do is copy and paste your default.lua into this one. I renamed the mods file and pasted mine here. Then copied those line into my file. What this does is keep your keys. Paste these in there. And delete the renamed file that came with the mod. Then install via JSGME. And you're done. (Keep a clean backup of the mod)
  21. Thanks, that was it. My analysis was incorrect. DCS never restarted until I clicked the vsycn option.
  22. It's ticking the vsync box. Once I click it once the UI gets dim, unticking will not bring the original brightness back
  23. So after actually getting back on my computer again changing the options back to what I had them set too still causes the screen to dim. I renamed the saved games/DCS folder and the screen is fine. I add the options through the in game GUI and it's dim again. I'm going though now to try and figure out what option is causing it. But it still seems bugged.
  24. If it is the mod, what you can do is go into the NVG mod, then find the input file, I forgot it's title but it's pretty simple to find. Open it in notepad++ scroll down to the 3 commands for the NVGS and copy and paste them into the file of the same name in your Mods/M-2000C... folder, then you can either delete this file from the mods (not recommended) or you can save the edited file in the mod, delete the lines from the non modded folder (all they do is add the lines to the control editor) then enable the mod. What you've done is you've copied your current keyboard current keyboard input file and added the new commands for the NVGS. Now they'll be visable for the controls page. Then you've put your current key file into the nvg mod. So when you enable the mod, you'll be enabling the NVGS and you'll still have your keyboard commands as you've assigned them, plus any that might be used for the kneeboard. That's what I've done and it's worked. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
