@RackMonkey Yes, thanks for this! I installed and mapped yesterday and checked it out today. Works great! Thanks again.

Ah! So there is no GUI for this adjustment, it has to be done manually from within the lua file. Ok, thanks

ok, that clears that up, thank you! The other question I have is about the: " this zip is also a mod that thins the IHADSS symbiology" once this lua is enabled, how/where do you make these adjustments?

Before I proceed with installing this lua mod, I want to be clear about something. By default, I dont see a "Custom" category in the drop down menu for Apache pilot. Is this lua creating that category? null

Thanks! I will fiddle with this over the next few days. so in summary, this LUA edit provides the following keybinding capabilities for the PILOT that are not currently available by default, correct? "You'll find these functions in the 'Custom' category. # 1~3rd lines : TV/FLIR 1st line is for a toggle (on-off type) switch, 2~3rd lines are for push switches. # 4~7th lines : TADS zoom"

@RackMonkeyWould you mind sharing that OVGME file if you made it? Thanks,

I had no idea about that either, up until you posted your tracks here, I never used them. Cool tool!

I didnt know you could do that, thanks alot, sounds like a plan indeed!

ok,,, I will do that later, have to step away for awhile,,, thanks again!!!

I thought this was a fluke in my 1st test, but now that I am back in honing these skills,,, I see that the white dashed cross does not always appear on the lazed target, its not there at all sometimes, even with a clear line of sight? ( I should say seeming clear)

Hmmm,,, ok,,, thanks alot for the help,,, I would have been lost still if I didnt catch the 2 errors I was making!

ok, I can tell by that track that there are at least 2 errors I made. I have corrected them and tested, its working. Thanks for the Tracks! Now the only other things I am interested in related to this is, when the Hellfire seeker head is on the JTAC target, is there anyway to slew a sensor to it so I can mark it on my MPD map, or get a visual on it. I mean I see the dashed cross, but thats about it. Also, can I lase that target to get a range?

nullIt shows how to change the code to a different one that already has a preset number, not a custom one like 1113. I am able to change the Alpha code for LST and LRFD but not the codes on the right side of the MFD? Even with the Alpha code set, I get ?SKR? I know Im doing something wrong.null

Thanks, I watched Cosmos vid a couple times, will watch it again but there is something i didnt catch in it that maybe I will this time. JTAC codes are different in at least 3 of the servers I fly on, there are quite a few Humvee JTACs, so they are all coded different.

Ok, im a little lost, so I need to change the "Channel" so it reads 1112 (for example) I cant seem to do that? What is the sequence of button pushes? -WPN -CHAN - THEN WHAT???

Ok, if JTAC is on 1112, do I change it for LRFD or LST or both?

I will check that out this week, thank you!

Ok, thanks you for the vid,, and comments! I will put this into practice and see how it turns out. Thanks again

@Recluse Thanks for the vid,, I really coudnt make anything out, but I very much appreciated the effort! @Raptor9 Thanks for the clarification,, understood. That certainly clears this up for me it seems.

im gonna wait to see this in a video, but I just want to be a little clearer, Im not just looking to change the laser code to match JTAC and then just fire off a Hellfire and hope it goes to target, I want to be able to pick up the target from and aquire it so I can identify from the back seat before firing. Hope Im making sense

Cant run that Track File, it says null

Good to know,,, Also, I have been Google searching DCS Apache Laser Spot Search in different variations since yesterday, I found quite a bit, but nothing relative to my point. I would be grateful if you linked me to those threads.

I dont think I really know either, I know what im trying to achieve (if doable). I just want to be able to go in and attack on JTAC laser from the back seat in Multiplayer. I know I have to set codes, but how to do it from the back seat left me scratching my head. I havnt tried it from the front seat because I havnt been flying in mutliplayer as a CPG, but I know the front seat has a button for "LST", which I presume he could search for the JTAC lazer within his field of view (or regard?). If I can get George to find the JTAC lazer, and he can get it up on the TADS so I can see it from the back seat, that would be great. @Recluse Yes, I was watching Casmos tutorial and saw that "Poor man's Laser Spot Tracker". I believe that was from the front seat tho yes?

If I am in Multiplayer, and in the Pilot seat, and George is in Front seat. Can I target JTAC lazed targets? Thanks,

I found it to work very good! I did trim 1st. Just gotta manually maintain altitude and your all set. Sure makes life easier when your heads down on the VID screen making sure George isnt targeting a friendly.
