  1. No as the CZ profile refers to another program to get the RWR on a second monitor.
  2. I have correctly installed this mod, but do not know what keys to use to make it work for the F-15 Eagle. Does it only work for the Su25T? I have the green lines on the DCS launch page.
  3. I believe that I have installed this mod correctly, but cannot figure out what key(s) are used to active the NVG in the F15?
  4. I have tried exporting the RWR for the F15 to a second monitor labeling it as LEFT_MFD and alternatively RWR and ED_RWR and nothing works. Has anyone successfully exported it to a second monitor?

  6. So far no RWR displayed.
  7. First, you need Helios 1.4. Next, you need to do your own viewports in the monitor config set up in the game. I will be doing that soon.
  8. Quaggles Thanks for the quick reply. However, I do not see a Quaggles Custom folder in my key commands list when I hit the folder option in the game. I am using a mod manager with the unzipped file. My path is: "DCS-Input-Command-Injector-Quaggles\Scripts\Input" and I have put the folder InputCommands in my saved games\openbeta folder. So I do not know why the F86 does not show the custom commands.
  9. Is hardlinking still required if you want to have a set of custom commands for both your HOTAS and your keyboard? I cannot seem to get that to work.
  10. Is there a key command to show/hide the joystick in the game cockpit?
  11. Did a reset of the keyboard commands and there they were.
  12. Unless I am missing something, there appears to be almost a total lack of key commands for the Mig-15. This surprises me as this module has been out for some time. Without key commands, I cannot make a Voice Attack profile. Is there any other source of keys for this jet?
  13. I have been flying on the Hoggit training server and when I set up a wp and designate that waypoint, I get the tadpole in the hud but not the wp number or distance to the wp. What am I missing?
  14. kgillers3 As I mainly play single player, I have Voice Attack commands for pause and active pause so if I need the time, I can grab my 3rd joystick. Hopefully, as I learn the Apache, I can go back to just 2 sticks. As an aside, I developed this Helios profile for the view ports so I can use my top screen primarily for the HUD, etc.
  15. bradmick After looking at various alternatives for my WH HOTAS, I have decided to initially go with your WH/Xbox combo. However, I found an old CH Fighterstick joystick that is the same as the WH joystick except it does not have the front lever. So I coded the CH Fighterstick about the same as you did for the Xbox controller. The one function that I seem to be missing is the Sight Manual Tracker/thumbforce controller. I am hoping to be able to use the X/Y axis on the CH Fighterstick for that purpose. Any thoughts on that? The one suggestion that I have for your profile is to consider swapping the location of the RTS commands and the FCR FOV commands. Many of us use Viacom Pro/Voice attack which uses the mic buttons on the throttle for all modules in the game. Therefore, having the RTS commands on the mic button would ease the setup for Viacom.
  16. SparrowHawk003 22 inch 1920x1080 resolution. In the Helios control panel, open up the "Prefs" button and in the next page down is a 2nd click suppression. Set it on and move the arrow all the way to the right and see if that helps. Also, I sometimes have to try to calibrate my touchscreen 3 or 4 times before windows recognizes it. However, 90% of the time I find it easier and more precise to just use the mouse. Scaley I am still playing with the profile. The developers of Helios have confirmed to me that I cannot have Helios trigger the button on my Hotas that I have set to activate the "switch" command. So for now, I have to physically press the button on the hotas to set the switch command in DCS. As a test, I am attaching the main monitor panel and the profile just to see how that transfers to others. I have a CH throttle quadrant and I am using button 11 on it to set the switch command in DCS. You will have to chose your own button if you do not have the TQ. All suggestions are welcome. This has not been easy and I am still learning. If either of you are not on CaptZeens helios profile discord channel, you should join it now. APACHE NOV_11_TQ11_v2.hpf
  17. Frederf and Furiz: I missed the step to highlight the word bullseye. Now it works. Thanks. So I set up a little mission with the following situation: WP 1 is bullseye. I am flying north and the WP/BE is north of me. The bad guy is somewhere between BE and me. With no bug, the numbers in the lower left is 27/168. I assume that this means that FROM BE TO ME it is 27 miles on a bearing of 168 from BE to me. The other numbers on the middle left of the FCR is 167/07 and I assume that this means that FROM BE TO THE CURSOR is on a bearing of 167 and 7 miles. When I bug the bad guy, the numbers on the left side changes to 168/19 and I assume that this means FROM BE TO BUG the bad guy is on a bearing of 168 from BE to the bad guy with a range of 19 miles. The numbers at the bottom left did not change. Please correct any errors.
  18. I watched Wag's recent video on bullseye references to bearing and range information depending on whether the FCR or HSD was the SOI and what the cursor was tagging. His explanations were very confusing and I would appreciate if someone could clarify the bearing/range information for me on the FCR and HSD. I created a simple mission with the Bullseye at WP 1, but I was still confused. Also, I could not get the little circle for bearing/range in the lower left corner of the FCR.
  19. Scaley The profile is still being changed daily by me. In addition, are you comfortable with using Helios? If not, you should be aware that Helios is probably the most unfriendly program in the DCS mod community. As such, a Helios profile consists of images, profiles and the actual Helios program.
  20. As it was raining all day, I decided to do some additional experiments with my Apache Helios profile. I intend to program the buttons and switches using the key commands in the game rather than programing them directly in Helios. This is not a great solution but takes a lot less time. Besides the two MCUs of the pilot, I have added the viewport for the TEDAC of the copilot/gunner. I have also decided to attempt to use the “switch” command in DCS to change my HOTAS from the pilot commands to the copilot/gunner commands. I am using switch 24 on my WH throttle panel as the switch command. Hopefully, this will enable me to avoid having to get another joystick or buying an Xbox controller. Only time will tell if this works. The first picture below shows the pilot profile with the center panel as a placeholder to add additional buttons and switches for the pilot seat. In the second picture, in the lower left corner are 2 buttons. The top button labeled “pilot” is the default for the placeholder stuff to appear. When the “pilot” button is pressed, the placeholder panel is hidden and the TEDAC viewport appears (hopefully). Finally, in the third picture, when I activate switch 24 on my throttle, a red line appears at the bottom of the “C/GUNNER” button to indicate that the switch command in DCS has been activated. One more thing that I would like to do is to figure out how to combine the above paragraph and this paragraph into one command. I have no idea if any of this will work, but it was fun to learn a little bit more about using Helios.
  21. I am using Voice Attack and would like to attach a sound that continues to play as long as the command is active. Is there any way to do that?
  22. Rather than get an Xbox for the TEDAC, it appears to me that the simplest solution for my TM Warthog setup is to use the switch command to give my HOTAS a completely separate set of commands for the pilot and gunner. I just need to better understand how the switch command works. Any thoughts?
  23. Just teasing you. However, after the F18 with its smart HUD, I am having difficulty getting on speed.
  24. So it worked for you? Maybe you can explain to me how to get this damn jet on-speed.
  25. Downloaded a shader's mod, 0.96 and it seems to clear up the canopy glass reflections. Thanks for the idea.
