SO i currently use the MFD export scripts for all aircraft. Attached is the config lua. The screenshot button captures ALL screens, even the MFD's. This is a bit bothersome that I need to crop every photo now. How can I make it so DCS only snaps the main screen? This is also a concern because even though I am not displaying anything on monitor #2, the screen still goes black and I cannot use it for anything else. as soon as I click back into DCS, whatever was on #2 goes into the background. Normally I like to have discord and chat on the other screen to be seen while flying. So I guess theres 2 different issues in this post hopefully I can figure out. Thanks in advance.

Thread revival. SInce the forums changed engines I cant see the photo from the HB testers team back on the first page. Ive matched the X/Y coords from the viper and harrier MFD's but the tomcats a no-go. Missing something? Or did something change?

This is awesome! Great work to the whole team for their dedication!

Alright, here's where I stand. I made it to where my screen #3 will show BOTH the F16 MFD's on the same screen, one top left and one top right for the Thrustmaster Cougar pack. However I cannot use my secondary monitor. Screen #2 is my discord, TeamSpeak, etc. etc. window I need to have open and visible while flying. Screen#1 is obviously the main window to fly on. So everything seems to be lined up perfectly regarding the MFD's on screen #3 but I have to tab in and out to use the #2 screen. #1 = 3440x1440 #2 = 1920x1080 #3 = 1920x1080 - Much smaller screen, 11.6" I unchecked "full screen" in the settings and its still the same way. Normally without the 3rd screen and MFD's I can have my second monitor visible 24/7 while I'm flying in game and I can click out and in between windows no problem. But as soon as I've added this 3rd screen for the MFD's the #2 goes black. Do I need to re-arrange the screens at all? Any help is great, I've gotten this far and it "Works" but not exactly Here are as many photos as I can give you to reference the setup. Thanks everyone. I really wish we could just drag and drop the MFD's like that old mod way back in the day. I really hope they plan to make this easier for people in the future.

Reading through all the different posts has been crazy to try and replicate.... My mind is numb. No matter what I do, my profile never shows up. I went and copied someone else's profile and theirs shows up but not mine and I copied all the entries and just changed the resolution. I must be thinking the wrong numbers here. Main 3440x1440 Secondary monitor (Discord, srs, ts, etc, etc) 1920x1080 SINGLE 11.6" 1920x1080 <-- Need both Left and right MFD's on the same screen left and right side respectively for Viper and tomcat Its probably pretty pretentious of me to ask for help or what I'm doing wrong here and if someone can steer me in the right direction. Ive changed the values so many times and the profile doesn't show in the list. This was a STABLE install but I used the CMD to change to Open BETA a long time ago. Which is why you probably dont see the OpenBeta folder but I assure you im running OB. Below is my layout where #3 and #2 are 1920x1080 and #1 is 3440x1440. The width of all screens would be 7280x1440. What I dot understand and nobody has them is this "Screen.width / 3" section. Ill need Both MFD's on screen 3 which sits physically behind my keyboard below #1. I thought this was much simpler and I'm debating just returning the screen and MFD packs honestly. What Am I doing wrong? Attached are as many screen shots as I can give for info. I'm obviously doing something wrong. Any input from the pros is appreciated. Hopefully I can expand my experience. Its crazy how this threads 11 years old and theres no easier way....

I just downloaded the F14 Streamdeck and DCS plugin. So far I've got a lot mapped thanks to user @nosaMtrevoCand his cool profile. But I haven't found a way to find Jester AI commands. I know they're in the in game keybinding menu but DCS doesn't recognize the Streamdeck since it's not a 'Button" and unfortunately I haven't found any item ID codes for jester stuff. I'm assuming it's because Streamdeck uses only clickable in the library and jester isn't a "clickable button" so it has no ID Iguess but I can't choose things like: "choose specific target" or "Set steerpoint x" it would be nice to have the jester commands with an Item ID so I can use the Streamdeck export script and have a sweet picture of all jester commands. if any of the pros are out there all help is greatly appreciated. Maybe the stream deck isn't going to work as planned and I'll send it back. though it is pretty cool for all pilot switches like autopilot, and everything shown in the photo above.

I got the basic profile installed. Im assuming theres nothing implemented for the Tacan 3 digit viewing yet? its ID is 0 right now. How would you dial and view the tacan? Thats the biggest thing is I'd like to see the tacan in the Stream Deck.

I just got a streamdeck XL to do exactly this and found your thread. Ill be reading closely. This looks absolutely amazing. Whats the quickest way to get started on this? I got the XL to fit hopefully everything or enough on one page.

Thank you for the reply NEWY! I appreciate that its on the agenda. Looking forward to the improvements!

This is something probably not many people have posted. However I feel its important for accuracy in carrier ops. The wake of the carrier is not near as noticeable when rounding the corner in the groove. It needs a lot more white-water wake behind that ship for at least a quarter to half mile. I know the SC is coming with lots of updates soon so maybe its already thought of. But it would be not only more immersive but more real to life and easier to actually see the the ships path when lining up in the groove in close. Its also what they use IRL when turning in close. I know water is 2D right now which presents a big problem but I think with the current wake it wouldnt be too difficult to extend it out more and make it much more prominent. Looking forward to the future of the SC! Thanks

I hope they know their hard work will not go unnoticed... People whine and complain about so much little stuff and dont realize how what they have now is already ground breaking. If anyone from the dev team see's this. You guys are setting the bar so high and is not under appreciated!

Really man? Of all the incredible things they're doing, you're going to complain about a wind farm location.............?

Thats what reshade is for my friend. Its very easy and the game looks like a new game! I would show you but the file limit is 5MB and the screenshots are much larger than that so heres a compressed version.

BY FAR the best map DCS has to offer, you guys really set the bar high for the future!!!!

On the phone right now with comcast in the US, ive always been able to host until the last week or two.

Did this ever actually become a thing? I'd download it to have some laughs.

I dont really know what the mans but I got the answer from @Gierasimov So thanks for that podcast! I guess we wont really know but i agree with you. Lets hope for Q2 or even better Q1!

Can you re-name the "INVISIBLE FARP" to something else by editing one of the lua files? For example I'd like to name it something else to make it easy to see a custom airstrip like "XYZ Field base" or something like that.

Sounds like you need to boresight first. Its worked for me every time.

It seems nobody has replied yet...

Have we gotten any comms about the Syria expansion lately? Back in November ED made the post about it but its been fairly quiet since then. Unless I missed a note somewhere. Are they pressing for the same release as the new engine with weather or somewhere in Q2-3? This is by far the absolute best map DCS has to offer, and I appreciate Ugra's fine tooth comb in their work to release and expand it. I cant wait for all the new bases for combat server flexibility!

Its the best map DCS has to offer. Bottom line. For a combat environment nothing beats it. I love it. The cities, the airbases, the land, everything.

Unless the ACLS in the airplane is tied to that FLOLS icon thats not what im getting at. The point being the autopilot takes extremely large over-corrections to get on course. Half the time I end of having to wave off from it

Over the course of the last few weeks Ive started flyng more and more CASE III's. I havent messed with the ACLS lately since I know it can be really "iffy" sometimes. I fly a really nice clear day straight in on this video and I believe that the autopilot make far too aggressive corrections to get on course. at the 23 second mark youll see the activation of the autopilot as the nose dives 10+ degrees towards the ocean. I feel that maybe its possible to give limits on how many degrees of bank and pitch is allowed with the ACLS on. Of course this is coming from a guy who knows nothing of scripting flight models etc etc. But it would make sense to me that limiting the amount of autopilot corrections to less than like 5 degrees of any axis would help. Ive had many times during a night, IFR CASE III and it dives or banks so far initially that it gets so far off course ill have to wave off otherwise ill plow into the ocean. I think we all agree this module is BADASS and really sets the bar high for ED and anything in the future. This birds been my go-to since release. But this has been on my mind since I rarely fly it in clear weather days and its nice to have the ACLS when needed. On that note I think I can fly a pretty stable on close to the center approach in the video and it still seems to dive a lot. I would imagine if you were a little further off it would dive and become un-recoverable. Also it does seem to track the FLOLS a bit low too but it looks to be fine on the Alt F9 LSO camera. Hopefully this helps or maybe its already been reported but I wanted to bring it up since its a moderate level issue.

Evening team. Any way we can change our Forums username? It would be great to match my login username of Coyote_one. I don't see a place to do it with the new forum engine. Thanks!
