  1. Awesome! Correct. Also correct. If you or anyone else can show that the DTC feature can work on other maps, please show evidence and share the terrain name. I have already set up DMPS to support multiple maps. It will be a change of 1 line of code per map. Simple.
  2. The physical DTC cartridge is something Raz added.
  3. I'm just going to say "no" because I can't tell what you mean, haha. Take a look at a previous example that someone has already done. You can go to to Library (in my signature), click the wiki, find an aircraft with multi-line outputs (there are many), take note of the ID number (like 3008 for example), and then go to that aircrafts lua and find "3008". You will see the syntax there. The format for a Newline is native to Lua so it is also Googleable.
  4. For OP make sure you read the instruction for install trice before doing it. The biggest thing is updating the firmware while the device is the only thing plugged in at the time. Other than that (and the other instructions), enjoy! I recently made the switch too. If you want some interesting tips on how to get lots of useful buttons, let me know. Think I was set and ready to go to then add a handful of buttons via the software to then have to remap my modules was slightly annoying.
  5. Correct, they will not return to center. Cam does not matter bc, as you may be able to see in some online pics, the lever arm is attached to the base on one end, the cam roller in the middle, and the spring on the far end. With the spring disconnected there is nothing to force the mid arm contact with the cam roller. The only resistance you will feel is from the damper and your other leg. TLDR; if you fly with no spring you are also flying with no cam. I fly with damper and springs. I find that I can’t really feel the difference between cams.
  6. Yes. Use /n as Enter in the text/string.
  7. Thanks for the feedback. For the datacartridge encapsulation part, as long as the file itself follows a standard, it should be fine. I added it because it is the same way it's done with options Lua. Which makes me think... What's going happen when other modules make their datacartridge? Is it going to be similar to options.lua where all the aircraft special options are in that file? Or will it be structured similar to the kneeboard structure where you would have a Datacartridge folder and inside that you have folders for all your modules, followed by the individual DTC files. I think I would prefer the kneeboard-like file structure for the ability of users to more easily locate edit the file by hand, if need be, until the dev or modder can make a GUI for it either ingame or out-of-game.
  8. Make use of the new Mirage M2000-C DTC feature with DMPS (definitely is in no way related to JMPS)! Download here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3321705/ Welcome to DCS DTC Mission Planning System (DCS-DMPS, a play on JMPS). With DMPS you can create DTCs. Simple as that. Includes both a standalone and in-game integrated version, much like DCS-Scratchpad or SRS. Along the top you will be able to select your aircraft, terrain (map), date, and the name of the DTC cartridge. You will then, be able to enter data such as: Waypoint name, Lat, long, altitude, cp, pd, rd, rho, theta, dalt, dnorth, and deast. More information can be found on the download page. Thanks DCSTheWay for the insight on getting coords from the map. Enjoy! Here is the Git: https://github.com/asherao/DCS-DTC-Mission-Planning-Software Releases: v0.2.0 - Initial release of Integrated app v0.2.1 - Fixed Longitude export v0.3.0 - Added Integrated App DTC Import - Changed the color of the Integrated App for readability v0.4.0 - Added a Get Coords hotkey, Ctrl+Shift+F2 by default. You can bind the keybind hotkey to your controller or HOTAS using a 3rd party program like Voice Attack (https://voiceattack.com/). - Enabled Syria DTC for the M-2000C - If you are having some issues upgrading fr om v0.3.0 to v0.4.0, delete your C:\Users...\Saved Games\DCS\Config\DMPS.config file and restart DCS. v0.4.1 - Added Auto-fill for waypoint lat/long based on F10 Map names I would like to applaud Razbam's team who made this step towards universal DCS DTCs, something that has been in the works for years via 3rd parties and modders alike. With that said, I hope these features can be developed with the input of the community to ensure their requests, concerns, desires, and experience are taken into account. One of the first things I would like to propose is to for the devs to make the DTC in the format of other DCS data, such as the options.lua, mission miz files, etc. As of this post, the M2k is not in that format. The format comparison can be seen below. On the left is the M2k default format. On the right is the same information, reformatted to ED's typical standard. As a modder, if ED's standard is adopted then the systems and knowledge that people already have with making supporting apps will be put to great use instead of everyone having to learn new parsing or programing skills. Formatting and parsing errors can be reduced, enabling multiple apps to interact among each other instead of accidently stepping on one another for import and export priority or formatting. I am looking forward to hopefully seeing these types of features expand to more modules!
  9. I have no I idea. I’d suggest trying to find the project thread here on the forums. If it does not exist, then make an individual post if you don’t get answers here.
  10. yes. they follow the same method and structure. just different file names and bind names. I believe many are googleable/searchable on the forums.
  11. Nope. Just happened to stumble upon this thread and offered a general solution.
  12. Thank you, very much. A lot of ppl looking forward to that.
  13. Yes. Examples are here. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/297237-apache-special-for-joystickcontrollerhotas-keybinds/
  14. 2) Yes. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/297237-apache-special-for-joystickcontrollerhotas-keybinds/
  15. If it still does not work, you can try the DCS Update Witching Utility (googleable). It cleans some stuff that DCS re-install attempts don’t.
  16. Can you provide a working example of the method for the TEDAC?
  17. They are animated, but unused.
  18. Hotkeys are not the “only” option. You can also use joy keys (DirectX).
  19. You may get better help in the main thread. Don't forget to explain everything you have done in detail.
  20. Nice solution. It is similar to the F14 solution in the past. It could be nice to have this as an Special Options toggle. I wouldn't opt for it, but I know many who would. The changes are OK for IC.
  21. Hello. You can feel free to ping/mention me if you are having issues with related stuff (I hope other content creators are ok with that too). I have heard that a solution is to Clear your keyboard binds and then Import the new ones.
  22. open `C:\...\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Cockpit\Scripts\AI\PrestonAI_page_common.lua`. These two lines near the top will determine the position in VR: local compass_pos = {0, -0.40} local weap_control_pos = {0, 0.32} I changed mine to this for a while: local compass_pos = {-0.25, -0.40} local weap_control_pos = {0.25, 0.32} Remember to make backups of the original AND your mod. If you repair or update DCS the file will be set to the original.
  23. Use that second link for the full file. If you already have it then I guess my theory is bust.
  24. I wonder if the winwing fix will fix the Helios issue too. https://github.com/asherao/DCS-ExportScripts/pull/1/commits/ae5c108b4f1bc18b6ea5af6f4a96d639a27dcb10#diff-38d3207c9e0fae5a0604959a2da297df22d3050e7130864a8d4d2d02713e59e1 can someone try using the newer exportScript.lua file? Here: https://github.com/asherao/DCS-ExportScripts/blob/master/Scripts/DCS-ExportScript/ExportScript.lua
