How to get Trimmer controls working in DCS?
Snacko replied to TEMPEST.114's topic in VKB-SIM Flight Gear
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! -
How to get Trimmer controls working in DCS?
Snacko replied to TEMPEST.114's topic in VKB-SIM Flight Gear
Have you seen this? I have downloaded the new firmware(v.1.95A) and tested it on a default setup and it seems to be working. You can have your hat trim the center of your joystick axis within the VKB firmware. I have not had a chance to add this to my current configuration to test it yet. -

DCS 2.5 and ReShade question
Snacko replied to blueskunk's topic in Utility/Program Mods for DCS World
Yes, this is JSGME compatible. The files are in the Bin folder because DCS has it's program files (DCS.exe) in that bin folder. The ReShade files always need to be in the same folder with the game that they are being used. That's how it works.... When a game/exe runs, it first looks in it's own folder for needed files and uses them. If they are not there, then it looks at the Windows System paths and system folders for them. So, to override your installed DX dlls, you put these in the game's folder and it uses these instead. I've updated to ReShade 3.2.2 Dx10 and that works fine. The main problem that I've had in the past was with ReShade causing the game to crash on loading.. It turned out to be other game overlays. I had FRAPS running... If you have any problems, make sure it works with other games. If it does, the make sure you have no overlays at all running in the background. I think there might have been one other app that also had an overlay. I cannot remember what it was now. But you can always just close every app in your SysTray, one at a time to see which one may be causing crashes.. Cheers. -

Thrustmaster TPR Peddals Mounting Idea
Snacko replied to mytai01's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
So is it because their connected at the top and they are then top heavy? I was hoping to get these, but I have wood floors, so no spikes. And I have a triple-screen with a Volair Sim pit, so it's not feasible to push a board up against a wall.. Are people complaining about this problem of sliding/moving? -
That would be great if he could also make it appear in VR. I have no idea how to do that. A standalone app would not appear in VR.
-
Same here. I have all of my buttons assigned to other things and need these axes. Lesson Learned on buying RAZBAM EA aircraft! :joystick:

Is Anti-Skid supposed to be On for Carrier Ops/Takeoff?
Snacko replied to Snacko's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Manual says even if it's On, it's not engaged under 10 knots. Maybe the Checklist page is just for 'general' takeoff's and you need to know the difference yourself? The manual doesn't say if the Checklist page is for Runway or Carrier takeoffs.. So it's probably both? -
Just like the title says. I've read that it should be Off, but I get an Advisory on it in the DDI Checklist if it's not On. The manual says it should be Off for Carrier Ops. Is this a bug?

I don't see any explaination of how to use this chart. Can you explain what the colors mean, and what the 2 percentages mean? % (%)

Just found this!! Awesome tool. Great work! I'm a bit confused about the Launch, VR/ON, VR/OFF buttons, and Options Preset selection. I thought selecting the Options Preset: Default VR Headset, or just VR Headset and clicking Launch would be enough to select the VR settings and launch the game. So why are the VR/ON and VR/OFF buttons needed? I watched your video twice and didn't see these explained. Thanks.

All My Mods respect themselves. And are not zipped. And the first thing you should do to protect your SSD's life is to disable any Auto Defragging. It's unnecessary.. Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk

I think a lot of people already have checklists to use? I would do that first. Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk

Triple Monitor - And the shadows are F***'ed up once again!
Snacko replied to Snacko's topic in Multi-Display Bugs
Thanks, I didn't know that. But it shouldn't cause a bug if you have it commented out to use the full screen for the UI. But I had to comment it out so I could use the ReArm ReFuel menus in the game. so it's a Catch22. -
Have you considered making it an app so you could open/close/resize it with hotkeys? And make it stay on top of the game window when it's visible? You could still embed an browser container in an app if you want.

My super Ghetto VR input solution
Snacko replied to lucky-hendrix's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
This idea made me look at my small wireless Logitech M185 mouse that I never use. I wonder if I get another one and take it apart, I could attach it's buttons to a glove and move my thumb over the laser to move the mouse and then click. I see BestBuy has them for $9.99. I could switch the original off and the glove on. Worth a look I think... -
I don't know why this doesn't work for you guys. All I did was comment out the UIMainView line. See pic below..
-
Hmm.. OK, thanks for the info. Never expected that answer. I would expect the pilot would set all switches since he's checking them. I assume they aren't worried he'll forget those things.. So there must be some reason for this procedure. Are all aircraft in DCS prepped like this for a cold start?
-
Strange. It worked for me.. Sent from my Moto Z Play using Tapatalk

I am just curious... When I do a cold start, why are so many switches in the On/Test position? SAAHS Yaw, Pitch, Roll, Q Feel; Fuel Prop; Gen I am not a pilot, so maybe there is a reason? Is it because the last pilot was drunk? Or maybe just lazy? Or is this just one of the many ignored bugs in this aircraft? :cry:

Go to your Monitor Setup folder: DCS World OpenBeta\Config\MonitorSetup -or- C:\Users\yourname\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\MonitorSetup open the file that you use, and comment out this line by putting two dashes -- at the beginning: -- UIMainView = Viewports.Center

Nope, I just installed the Hotfix and then saw this thread and tested it. Still broken. But you can do that hack posted above. Then your menus are on all 3 screens until it's fixed..
