Unable to map the Right MCFD Controls
Ziptie replied to Raisuli's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
It’s just always been grayed out - unable to bind anything on the MFD’s for the A10C I/II. Can bind OSB/rockers to anything I want for the Hornet / Viper - but the A10 seems to be fixed. Not sure either, and really it’s not a big deal as the OSB’s work as intended - would just be great to be able to bind those master arms as I never use the rocker switches to adjust display brightness/con/sym, etc. Cheers, Ziptie -
Unable to map the Right MCFD Controls
Ziptie replied to Raisuli's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
Well I’m intrigued and will be working hard to find out how to be able to bind those arm switches to my left MFD rocker switches. Just have to research how to edit whatever is needed to be edited, so I can be happy! In regards to your issue - I noticed you had them “named” LDDI and RDDI. Not sure if that is having an impact on the A10C not recognizing them. Mine are labeled as the stock/factory names, which is something like F16 MFD1 / F16 MFD2. Apologies for the vagueness, I am not home to boot PC/DCS to reference Cheers, Ziptie Cheers, Ziptie -
[NOT A BUG]EAC Switch Always Off Position
Ziptie replied to honeycool75's topic in Bugs and Problems
Same, all fine for me as well. Are you possibly forgetting to for the SAS switches forward? Can’t remember 100%, but thought in my early days that when I forgot those, EAC wouldn’t stay toggled forward... Cheers, Ziptie -
I use a Thrustmaster Warthog, so thankfully no issues for me. Side note, I see you are in the A10C I keybinds - are you trying to bind controls for the A10C II? Not sure if that is your issue, but might be....? Cheers, Ziptie

Negative. There are several posts about it. It’s been deemed “correct as is by SME(s).” Cheers, Ziptie -
[USE TMS Aft Long] SPI to Steerpoint not working?
Ziptie replied to awjudge's topic in DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer
Indeed. As stated, had a few beers and was power typing from my phone. Oops. Corrected, but also why I included the link with charts for commands. Disclaimer. Cheers, Ziptie -

So you were able to bind the master arm and gun pacarm/gunarm to the rocker switches on an MFD??? Cheers, Ziptie -

That is the method that I was referring to ^^ Cheers, Ziptie -
[REPORTED] Slave TGP to HMCS drifting/moving Problem
Ziptie replied to SchwappingMags's topic in Bugs and Problems
Try the way above as well, it’s less workload and higher probability of slewing where you want. I tried your way initially, before the other member assisted me. Maybe it works better for you, maybe not - but worth a try. My .02 Cheers, Ziptie -
[REPORTED] Slave TGP to HMCS drifting/moving Problem
Ziptie replied to SchwappingMags's topic in Bugs and Problems
Try slewing the “TDC” slightly off the crosshair of the HMCS and then DMS right long to slave the TGP. It works as desired, without getting “drift” of the TGP. It’s how Wags did it and explained in his video. It got me a couple times, until another member highlighted that missing step that I was neglecting to perform. Cheers, Ziptie -
Is it possible to slave the AIM9M to the HMCS for an off boresight A/A engagement? So far I have not found it in the manual, and been unable to even make the HMCS SOI with AA mode enabled - unless I enable AA mode first with master arm OFF, HMCS as SOI, then master arm ON. As soon as you coolie switch forward, to make HUD SOI, which allows you to uncage the 9M seeker head, you are unable to make HMCS SOI again. Also, I do realize that the 9M is not capable of as high off boresight shot as the 9X. Cheers, Ziptie

+1 The picture is worth a thousand words: https://media.defense.gov/2007/Jun/27/2000477215/780/780/0/062607-F-0602B-100.JPG Cheers, Ziptie

It won't stay there though, with the method you described, which is why I think some people are not thrilled about it. I personally like the new method and have already become use to the change. That being said, I don't personally see an argument to reinstate the ability to cage it to boresight/snowplow mode - aside from one person who mentioned having a disability that makes it difficult to rotate their head. Even still, there is the ability to depress STBY and then AG again. Cheers, Ziptie

I'd think "up to 2012 or so" is what he was saying, rather than "2012 to present or close to it." Cheers, Ziptie

A-10c II Hotas functions Chart for kneeboard
Ziptie replied to VaporFlow's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
Not my work, so I cannot take credit - but when I saw it - was happy to share it. The member that made it is, bjwonsite , unless I am mistaken. The Z axis is actually in that chart, it is just listed as "depress" rather than Z axis. Not thrilled about the incoming changes to the CMS functionality - but if it's accurate to real life, happy to retrain the muscle memory. Cheers, Ziptie -
^^ this ^^ Cheers, Ziptie

[USE TMS Aft Long] SPI to Steerpoint not working?
Ziptie replied to awjudge's topic in DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer
Not accidentally having the HMCS SOI? I've made that mistake a couple times by forgetting that Coolie Switch forward doesn't just stop at HUD now. So from having one of the MFD's as SOI I might depress Coolie Switch forward twice by accident and it moves SOI straight past HUD and on to HMCS..... Could that be it by chance? Other than that - I'd probably have to fly in a server with you briefly to try and walk through it step by step (which would literally only take a few minutes) but won't be able to fly again virtually until Saturday. Would be happy to assist if the timing works for you and haven't managed to sort it out by then (or at least find a more reliable solution like you used to have). Cheers, Ziptie -
[USE TMS Aft Long] SPI to Steerpoint not working?
Ziptie replied to awjudge's topic in DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer
I adjusted my previous post, so re-read what I wrote. Bottom line, when in doubt - make HUD SOI and TMS aft long. It will reset your SPI to STPT. Then you should be able to perform China Hat forward long. Should be good. Cheers, Ziptie -
[USE TMS Aft Long] SPI to Steerpoint not working?
Ziptie replied to awjudge's topic in DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer
So a few things seem to be going on here, think you might have just got a few things mixed up. Doing this from memory, after a few beers - so I have included two sheets that might help you if my steps below happen to have made a mistake. Meh, apparently I cannot attach those files as I have already attached them in another thread - so here is the link to that post - where the two sheets are located for reference: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4507898&postcount=3 TMS forward long changes SPI (dependent on what is SOI). TMS aft long changes SPI back to STPT. China hat aft long slaves TGP to STPT. China hat forward long slaves all to SPI. Cheers, Ziptie -
Did you not get the A10CII ? Cheers, Ziptie

Apparently there is a strong possibility that the prior CMS commands were not accurate - and seems likely there is an incoming change to the CMS commands for the A10CII - which are reflected in those sheets that NineLine posted. While I cannot 100% confirm this, don't be surprised to see that information become accurate. Cheers, Ziptie

Ziptie replied to VaporFlow's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
Or these if you wanted them. Apparently there is a possibility of a change coming to the CMS commands. Not confirmed yet - but sounds likely.... These reflect those changes. Cheers, Ziptie -
That isn't the A10CII that you are in. That is the A10C I. You can tell, as the TISL panel is still above the circuit breaker panel, and the panel is not blank - where the ARC210 radio will be added later. Try jumping into the A10CII and you should see the differences when you change the settings you've changed multiple times. I haven't tried the "pristine" cockpit, but the worn one is certainly worn and looks great! Also, your landing light is still on :) Cheers, Ziptie
