Does anybody know where this 'tempMission.lua' file is? It doesn't exist in that folder. And Grok said it was a dynamically generated temp file when you create kneeboards. So, I'm also wondering why it's being called from DCS at all? ERROR Lua::Config (Main): load error C:\Users\User\Saved Games\DCS\KNEEBOARD/002-missionbriefing-001.lua:no file 'C:\Users\User\Saved Games\DCS\Data\Kneeboard Builder Config\Kneeboard Data\tempMission.lua'.

Thanks! I installed all of my modules into that new clean install. I made a mission with most of my flyables flown by ai. And the log had around 250 errors.. So sad..

Fair Point. I missed that. I installed a brand new clean install of DCS to test with. Loading it to the game main menu got 96 errors. After flying the su-25t and P-51 I had 140 errors. 117 of those errors are those negative drag errors. Each time I fly a new aircraft I get new errors for them. This makes if much more difficult to find errors you can fix. Even though this is a very complicated program, with many different 3rd party developers, they should periodically have everyone clean up their errors! I'm going to install all of my modules today, and see how many errors I get. I'm guessing around 300...

Ok, I'm trying to fix all of the log errors that I can the past few days. And found this thread... I have done a full repair & cleanup twice in the past 3 days, and I still see this in my log: 2025-09-20 18:40:27.778 ERROR wInfo (Main): negative drag of payload "{MAK79_MK20 1R}" (origin:

Just got back into the F4 and my music didn't work anymore. It's been a while.. Has this been officially fixed yet?? I read on the Heatblur manual website that if you delete the sdef.tar file in the sounds folder it should create a new one with your sound files in it? I'm using .wav files and this worked for me. Anyone tried putting these files in the Saved Games folder?

Just wondering if there is any way to Hide that message? It's immersion breaking... And now that I'm used to it, I don't need this reminder...

Ok, I found the problem. The parameters are (from some reason) case sensitive!!! I had --force_enable_vr, not --force_enable_VR!!? Any good coder knows to change the case to Upper or Lower before any comparison that doesn't need to depend on the case of the letters. It's just a standard to reduce user errors, trouble tickets, threads like this. Oh well, after 3 weeks I figured it out.

I have been using --force_enable_vr for a long time with DisplayMagician to launch several apps first, and then DCS in VR. But the other day, I noticed that the --force_enable_vr parameter stopped working. It does not launch me into VR anymore. Does it still work for you epoch??

I do still need this. I'm using Display Magician to launch several apps before I launch DCS in VR. Is there anyone else who can answer my OP?

I've had a shortcut to go straight into VR using the mt-bin/dcs.exe for quite a while. I tried to use it the other day and now it's failing. It just goes into 2D. Here are the parameters I have been using. Does anyone know what the problem might be?? --force_enable_vr --no-launcher

+++100 for me!

Thanks! I think I got confused because it says to select your Saved Games directory.

I have moved from Win10 to Win11 and am setting up my rig. When I click the 'Build Custom Kneeboard' button, it puts the files in these folders: ..\Saved Games\Data ..\Saved Games\Kneeboard I thought these folders used to be in these folders: ..\Saved Games\DCS\Data ..\Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard I just may be confused, ... or has something changed?

I don't care so much about it being installed in the AppData. Just have always thought that was strange. But after a quick look, I see a ton of .exes in Local. Can you take a screenshot of your SimAppPro in the Task Manager/Startup tab? Just so I can see if they are the same?

Seriously, this app is not normal. It even installs itself in the AppData folder. @MustangSally Do you have this app? If so, is yours like this?? If not, how old are you?

I just installed a clean version of Windows 11 Pro a few weeks ago and am getting everything setup. Today I noticed this.. SimAppPro is enabled in the Startup tab of Task Manager. And when you click the little > arrow to see what all it's doing, I found this ridiculous list of crap! Is SimAppPro Spying on me??? I immediately disabled it.. I don't need it running all the time, and blocked it from the firewall to see what happens.

Ok, I got some time off and going to try this again.. Are there any English instructions on how to install the 104 and other mods? It seems that FC3 no longer exists, so after looking at a reference in the entry.lua to the F-15 from FC3, I installed that. I can get into the cockpit now, and my stick works. But my Throttle doesn't work. I press PgUp/Dn and that doesn't work even though it's assigned. I found that the Np+/- work. Are we supposed to download that 1st file in the list on pCloud? And do what with it? Sorry if I have missed reading something.. But I've never seen any detailed instructions the few times I've tried to install this.. Thanks.

This is great! I'm just using it to browse through the skins in my Livery, and delete redundant and other skins to reduce the folder's size.

Ok, just a regular 6 month follow-up on the status of this minor bug. How many years will it take to fix the simple things??

No new mount. I'll try pressure and rolling it off and see how that works. Cheers! EDIT: Ok, I see there's a difference in the mounting plate.. I cannot see the underside of the Pimax Crystal Light version. Is it concave? Like the Crystal Light's hump in the middle? Thanks for the info!!

I just switched from a Reverb G2 to the Pimax Crystal Light... I have pried the camera and 2 switch pads off of my HMD. Any suggestions on the best way to remove the foam & sticky stuff? I thought I had see a vid or post a long time ago about how to do this, but I'm not sure.

Is'nt this mod now included in the DCS install?

This mod changes the Labels on the F-4E TapePlayer Cassette Tapes. You can Read about the F-4E's TapePlayer here. It includes a custom label for the Video Tape. And 3 different Labels for the Music Tape. These mods were made using Open Mod Manager, and include Thumbnails & Descriptions for it's Mod Info panel. They can also be installed for use with OvGME. And of course, you can manually install them(backup original Misc.zip first!) DOWNLOAD HERE

Thanks, I got it to work. It seems to me it would be better if we could just put them in the actual Mod's folder? Keep things together. And easier to share with everything in the same folder? You could just ignore files with the exact same folder name when you install the mod. (or even just installing these 2 files shouldn't hurt anything..)

Is it possible to add a Thumbnail and Description to mods that are not zipped?
