I am on the latest Nvidia Driver version: 398.36 installed in last two days with DDU I have run cleanup and repair F18-C module Faulting application name: DCS.exe, version: 2.5.2.19273, time stamp: 0x5b3e274b Faulting module name: zlib.dll, version: 1.2.11.0, time stamp: 0x5a3007bf Exception code: 0xc00000fd Fault offset: 0x0000000000017518 Faulting process id: 0x2388 Faulting application start time: 0x01d41c14bf8d20c1 Faulting application path: C:\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\DCS.exe Faulting module path: C:\DCS World OpenBeta\bin\zlib.dll Report Id: e1e0d60c-62dd-4998-83a5-d5c6f9986b32 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID: dcs.zip

When you get this sorted can you post the resolution here so others who may have the same problem can benefit? Thanks.

Hi All, I am patiently waiting for my analog thumbstick. In the meantime.... Can any users tell me which of the Circular front plate or the Square front plate they installed and why ? Have you found any limitations with one or the other? Thanks.

Actually, it does matter. If you just leave it on rotary, then the centre position ends up being about 56% on both X and Y and what happens is that the TDC cursor moves by itself on the radar screen. No amount of calibration would fix the centre position. The only way to fix it was to get rid of the rotary and go back to the normal axis assignments as per my post. There are no centre issues when you do that.

I only want to map my TM Throttle. How do I change the script so that it only uses the TM Throttle. At the moment I am getting a lot of devices failing to initialize.

How do I kick out the devices I don't own? I only want to map my TM Throttle. How do I change the script in targetdx128.tmh so that it only uses the TM Throttle. At the moment I am getting a lot of devices failing to initialize.

For those wishing to autostart DCS after starting the script, add the following to the start of the file as below changing the DCS directory location as per your system. Note the double back slashes !! Also, I tried to get TrackIR to start by adding the following, but I could not get it to work. If anyone has any success in getting TrackIR to start by running the script then would appreciate you posting a solution.

Hi Grodin, The F18 now has Axes that can be assigned to the throttle joystick for the TDC function. If users still want to use your script and use the axes for TDC control, they have to remove the bottom 2 "KeyAxis" lines from the script AND change the two entries: MapAxis(&Throttle, SCX, DX_XROT_AXIS); MapAxis(&Throttle, SCY, DX_YROT_AXIS); to: MapAxis(&Throttle, SCX, DX_X_AXIS); MapAxis(&Throttle, SCY, DX_Y_AXIS); Otherwise the normal axis function will not work. Perhaps you should edit your original post to reflect this.

Tested KC-135B in DCS 2.5.2.18307 in Harrier and Hornet. Can connect but only for one second. Still bugged.

KC-135DBA Basket still bugged DCS 2.5.2.18307. Tested in Harrier and Hornet. Can connect but only for one second. Still bugged.

So when you get into the cockpit to start cold and dark, with your throttles in the off/cutoff position, can you do a start and move them to idle and do a successful start because I have to move them to idle and then back to cutoff to get them synced. In other words they are not synced when I first start. Also, how do you have the launch bar mapped. I cannot find a separate launch bar down or up command, only a launch bar toggle command. I have the same syncing problem with it as well. And yes i have Hotas sync option enabled

I hadn't noticed that ! On an airfield takeoff, it doesn't matter what position the finger pulls are, you always get AB light off. But on the carrier, you dont get AB unless you have the finger pulls up

So what is being mapped, the idle position or the cuttoff position ?

This is brilliant. Thanks very much. Can you tell me how exactly to map the Throttles for Idle/Cutoff and the finger pulls. Mine are always out of sync when I start cold and dark.

Can you use modifiers with TARGET? For example I have the paddle switch on my joystick which I use as a modifier. In the DCS controls page I can then use this modifier with any other switch to effectively double the number of commands available. Can TARGET do this ?

Yes that fixed it. Thanks very much. Must be the target software.

Nope. I only selected the TM Throttle. Nothing else.

No, I definitely only have the Thrustmaster Combinred. My normal Thrustmaster throttle does not appear at all. I have tried to scrol to the right but there is nothing there.

If I use the TARGET software for the TDC, does that mean I will have re do all my bindings within DCS for all my other aircraft like the F-15 and A-10C ?

I too have flown the Hornet IRL. Agree 100% in relation to nose down pitch change with full flap deployment being the opposite of what one would expect in real life. Also, agree speed reduction with full flap is far too pronounced.

Same here. Thought i was going mad. Only way to exit is by deselecting AA mode and re selecting AA mode.

Beautiful work Strut. When I joined the RAAF in 1980s, we were still flying this majestic fighter. I didn't get to fly it, but I had a chance to fly the Hornet, which was better than sex.... Well, sort of. Can't wait for the rest of your stunning skin work !

Probe enters basket but no contact. Please fix.
