PS: After I had noticed no Heat Blur, and did some quick testing. I removed all of my mods, and did a Repair. And there was still no Heat Blur.

Yes, I noticed that two weeks ago. I just assumed it was still under development.

Today in the Beta I noticed my FA18 had no Heat Blur even though I have had it set on High forever. So, I did a few quick missions, and even tried setting it to Low.. None of the Aircraft I saw had Heat Blur, except one. The Su-27 was the only aircraft with Heat Blur that I saw. The A10c, AV8B, FA-18, Su-25, F-16, Apache, and others had no heat blur..

I found that Bug Tracker yesterday and was very happy to see it. At least if I see that something I want fixed is on their list I feel better about it. I also didn't now that those guys had other jobs! This is a side-job for them? I thought making these aircraft was their full-time jobs. So I understand why things are slower getting fixed. But that is also good to know for future purchases.. Not knocking the quality of any products, but just good to know what to expect.

As I was thinking about this last night, I remembered that Capt. Zeen's profile just displays an exported window from the game for that gauge. So, he may not be getting any engine info for his profile. :doh:

CaptZeen has the IFIE Engine data in his Helios profile. Can you some other engine data to simulate engine shake?

Would it be possible to add RPM to the list of Outputs for simpits? The Hornet already has plenty of data being output, but I was told that the RPM was not being output and so SimShaker cannot simulate the vibration of the engine. Thanks!

Hmm.. that's too bad. Do they plan on fixing that? :huh:

I have the SSA and Module for my shakers. I just went through and set the Strengths for Each Effect testing them in the Sound Module 'Test' tab.. But I'm getting no Engine Rumble at all in the F/A-18. What is the status of the F/A-18 support in SimShaker? I also didn't find any sound files to test in the module for the Refuel Boom, Tail Hook, Wheel Blocking, and I think Turbulence.

Any ETA on when BlueFin's AV-8B Helios profile will be released? (or did I miss it somewhere, lol)

I have" Cargo + external fuel-tank for the UH-1 + Racegates" and "Helipads" installed in the 'Mods/Tech' Save Games folder. I put the Oil Rig in a mission, but it is invisible. I can see it in the ME just fine, but not when I run the mission.. Do both downloads to in the Saved Games? In the Saved Games/DCS folder I have put these folders: Bazar Data MissionEditor Scripts Sounds In the Saved Games/dcs/mods/tech folder I have: Helipads UH-1_ext_FuelTank Sorry, I might have this wrong.. I find the instructions a bit confusing.. It sounds like everything goes in Saved Games/DCS somewhere.. :joystick: EDIT: I think this instruction in the first post is what confuses me: "from the files"? I assume that means from the downloaded zip? "to you DCS-Folder in your "Saved Games" Folder, before you use JSGME"? Do I install the other folders in the Saved Games folder or the Game's install folder? And the download for the 'Cargo + external fuel-tank for the UH-1 + Racegates' is called 'Helipads_Cargo_RaceGates_Hospital 2.5'. So are there Helipads in this download as well as the Helipads.rar download? Thanks for your work. Sorry if I am confusing this myself. :confused:

Thanks, I see that I can just install separate mod for the diff views now.

Thanks for the update! I just downloaded it! I am running Triple-Screens and when I press LAlt+F9 I am very far zoomed in. I have to reduce my FoV by pressing the RCtrl+/ everytime I go to this view. .. Is there anyway that I can adjust the FoV in the lua code so it starts at a better FoV? I finally saw the sky blue arrows when my screen went black for a second as I quit the mission. Since they are the same color as the sky they are almost impossible to find if you are a noob. Is there any change you could change them to green or red or some color that would show up against the sky? Thanks!

Great mod!! 1) How do you turn the camera? I cannot get it to turn with mouse, trackir, or keystrokes.. 2) I have a triple screen setup and the FOV is way too close/zoomed. Can I adjust one of the parameters? Can you explain the parameters in the GT.LSOView() command? Thanks!

I've done that several times Slicker. PM me and I'll show you how. It's pretty easy IIRC. Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk

I have a message display when I span into a aircraft for landing practice. And a different message when I spawn into an aircraft for Air Refueling practice. The first message displays fine when I spawn in that aircraft. The second message doesn't display until I spawn into it's aircraft the second time. I want the messages to display every time the slot is spawned. Maybe I am using the wrong condition? But I have the UNIT name and Group name correct on both triggers. And it does display if I select the slot, then select a different slot, then go back and select that slot again. :joystick: Carrier Takeoff Landing Persian Gulf Practice.miz

Hold the switch!! Argg... got it! Thanks. So in real life how would they get the course, since a carrier could be heading any direction? But for now everyone uses the F10 map? Ok. Thanks once more!

How do you get the Course Line of the Stennis? In Wag's Case I video he enters 000 for the course, but how do you find out the course of any carrier? Also, in his video he enters Tacan 55x and sets his HSI to TCN and click the CRS switch and then there is a button for CSEL on the UFD. But I don't ever get that option on the UFD. CSEL never appears for me to enter any course line even if I knew it.. I tried contacting the Stennis and selecting Inbound and it said xxxx, Runway 11 to pattern altitude.. is that the carrier's course line? Is that how you normally get it? EDIT: Hmm.. I flew parallel to the carrier and my heading was 240. So, 11 must not be it.

Yea, this kind of thing gets fixed in a patch or two. Just annoying there have been several Triple-Monitor bugs in the past few months.. And they've been fixed with no mention of it in the patch notes. Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk

I have my center monitor functioning as my menu screen. But that only fixed the shadow bug. It didn't fix this arming menu bug. I have to change my resolution to 1920x1080 / 1 Monitor to use the arming menu in the Mission Editor or in game. Then change it back. PLEASE FIX THIS! :joystick:

Thanks for the Reply Wolf! It's very helpful to see how you set this up. So you can have VoiceAttack/VIACOM and SRS running at the same time? And when you press (for example) Mic switch forward, all these things happen at the same time? VIACOM presses it's TX1 PTT SRS Selects Radio 1 Discord mutes while pushed? Are you using Easy Comms?

Like the title says. How do you use Radios+SRS+VAICOM+Teamspeak/Discord together in Real Comms mode? :cry: I have been flying for a while, but never got very deep into using the radios because I had enough to learn, and found it a bit confusing. I kept it on Easy Comms for many years. Now I am looking to improve my Comms experience and maybe fly more online. So, needless to say I am a noob at the Comms and may have some(or much) of this wrong.. I've been wondering how users have their Comms mapped to their HOTAS for a while now. Which bindings are most important? The way I see it you need a ton of buttons just for comms. Let's take a worst case for example. The A10c: 3 Radio PTT buttons 3+ SRS PTT buttons?? Channel Up, Down, PTT? 3+ VAICOM PTT buttons?? TX1, TX2, TX3? 1 Teamspeak/Discord PTT button? ---- 10 buttons? :doh: That can't be right! What a I missing? Can someone explain how these all work together? And what would be the bare minimum button assignments? Thanks, and Cheers! Snacko

Yes, I've had the new version of Helios installed, waiting to try the new profile. Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk

I set this up today and it works great!! You can even set that left hat up to be like the Master Mode hat in that it also can have a POV and then with a long press you can switch to the axis. And with a short press you can reset the trimmer axis. So, now I have the trimmer and reset on that left hat, plus 4 POV(8 if you want to set it up for more) buttons. And also the center Master Mode had works the same way. So, I actually added 4 extra buttons to my stick!! And have axis trimmer on any aircraft. Sweet!
