Hi, Lost my passaword But I do not see any option to recover it... Any idea ? Thanks

Still working on it on m'y free time. Not yet released.

Hi everyone, Short update today. The Caucasus Demonstration Theater is slowly but surely taking shape. Some thirty platforms (nuclear plant, power plant, factory, army base) are already in place, as shown by the icons in the following image. The units automatically placed on the platforms are obviously in line with the platform's coalition. For example, you can see that Russian helicopters (Ka50, Mi8, etc.) are placed on the red army bases, whereas NATO equipments (Ah64, etc.) are placed on the blue army bases (although everything was mixed on the Generic platform). Of course, every platform is different. Above the Kobuleti Army base. I remind you that this scenario is purely fictitious, so there's no need to look for this base in real life (although of course there's nothing to stop you setting up platforms in line with reality). Vehicles and helicopters are just static object but I am now coding the bataillon that will effectively defend the platforms. See you soon for new pictures (and video) Happy flying

Hi Grimes, Thanks for your prompt reply and your tips. F10 commands is not really what it is supposed to do but anyway I have manage to fix it. Many thanks to take on your time to help, I am pretty sure your answer will help me or other guys sooner or later. Thanks again

Hi everyone, Time for a little update. As the Theater builder is now quite robust I hve started to build an exemple/tutorial in the Caucase map and I will show you soon with new screenshoot or video. In the meantime I show you a new exemple of the platform diversity that you can achieve in particular with the link dependancy in the present case on a nuclear plant. I mean that you can superimpose many simObjects on the generic platform (the one on the top) but real platforms will cope this that according to your preferences and build real platforms on the theater (where you specified, here I put them nearby to swow the differences) with no overlapping objects and great diversity. I think it's time now to deal with ground forces that will defend these startegic sites still according to your preferences and of course random. I will keep you inform, Happy flying with DCS

Hi, I am looking for a lua pattern that would accept the following format exemples : Case 1 : "TEXT1 #i1 TEXT2 " or Case 2 : "TEXT1 #i1 TEXT2 i2 " or Case 3 : "TEXT1 #i1 TEXT2 i2 SEQ" Where TEXT1 could be any word , TEXT2 could be any wordS (possibly only one) separated by space SEQ is either #i3 or !#i3 i1, i2 and i3 are integers. The aditional condition would be that if i2 is NOT finishing the sequence then it MUST finish with SEQ (as defined above) I tried different patterns like "^%w+ #%d+( [A-Za-z]%w*)*( %d+( !?#%d+)?)?$" but it fails! What is wrong in my pattern ? The one suggested by chatGPT (in the code below) does not work either obj = "ROST1 #10 Hornet1 Blue 25 !#10" pattern="^%w+ #%d+ ([A-Za-z]%w+)( %d+( !#%d+)?)?( [A-Za-z]%w+)*$" if string.match(obj,pattern) then print("Good") else print("bad") end Anyone suggesting a good pattern ? You can test any sugestions at https://onecompiler.com/lua/ Thanks

You can of course rotate the plaform at your convenience before spawning it in the place you want. Real plateforms spawning is also probabilty related. So you can decide that "this one" will alway be there or 50% (or whatever you choose) of the time you run DCS

Hi everyone, DynaMO now takes into account simObject dependancy that will allow even more diversity with only one generic plateform. This is illustrated in the following pictures. As you ca see there are some simobjects overlapping in upper right of the generic plateform However you see that in the real plateform if the big 3 chimney object and the trees are there the 4 towers ones are not (and the opposite). You can also check that if 3 chimney building on the lower left is there it's analog on the right is not (and the opposite) You might also note that if the central building in the upper left part of the real platform is there, the trees are not (and the opposite) You can of course combine everything all-together for a great and coherent diversity from a unique generic platform and duplicate random variant elsewhere. No need to know anything about lua because all this is just simple simobject naming rules and convention.

Hi everyone, A small status update to illustrate just how diversified theater can be, thanks to the random placement of objects on platforms. I illustrate this with the following images, which show 3 real platforms generated from the same generic platform (top middle with all opjets shown). We can see, for example, that the large antenna is absent from platform 2 (bottom middle), while trees and one of the buildings with large chimneys are absent from platform 3 (left) but present on platform 1 (right). But there are many other differences... Will you see them? See you soon for further updates as the realease of the theater builder approache.

Hy Guys, In fact it was both... io was 'sanitized' and one must use \\ instead of \ in the path. Thanks

Hi everyone, I would like to write a file within a DCS script with the following : -- Opens a file in read file = io.open("G:\test.lua", "w") file:write("TOTO\n") -- closes the open file io.close(file) But I get an error accesing a nil value... Howerver G is an valid USB key... What's going on ? Thanks ?

Great patch content. Thanks for the hard work

Hi everyone, I know It's possible to dictate and save something to kneeboard with VoiceAttack/Vaicom but does anybody know if there is a Lua scripting command that would allow to write the kneeboard in game ? Thanks

Hi Guys, thanks for your suggestion. @Zyll : exactly what I was looking for.

Hi eveyone, Instead of switching to coallition with the coalition values like if Group.getByName(flight):getCoalition() == 1 then... I would like to test the coalition side ("RED" which is same as 1 for exemple) but can't find the right syntax.. Anybody ?

I also experinced this and fixed it but don't remember how

Hi, Stupid question but I flew 3 missions totalising 2H48' (54 +58 + 57) but my profile shows only 2H experience ? Is it because it is rounded or did I miss something ? Thanks

XRNecksafer working for me in mt. Last week i expérienced the DCS hangar upside Down problem that was solved by reinitialising the WMR setup.

Thanks Guys

Did it but still no Charracter in the dropdown menu. Ok. Did it. I was confused because DCS was shown in my profile but it was not selected in the character... Now still have to discover all the features.. Thanks for the help and impatient to use your great tool

Hi, Stupid question but each tiime I want to check modules I have bought I am unable to navigate to the right place... I spent already 10mn navigating the web site without finding... Could someone tell me where it is hidden... Thanks

Hi, New to this application that seems well appreciated by many... I went through the 20 pages but it sounds that I missed something because I have : - registered - create a chartaer Then I launch the DCS Logbook Sync that I have downloaded, browse the file and choose the debrief file in my DCS log directory and then at step one, the "Please select a character" drop menu is empty.... So I think I missed something... I have also some basic questions: - which file should we select for the DCS Logbook Syn application : debrief or log ? - Is it possible to import at the begining all "missions" we flew since the begining of the DCS Logbook we see in the DCS interface ? - Is there a documentation or cookbook somewhere ? Thanks

Hi everyone, Sometime when entering DCS the VR the view is completly in offset and althougt I have assign a "center VR view" keystroke it doesn't work until I choose any menu in the interface. In these condition as I cannot acsess the menu I must kill DCS and restart... Anybody else exepriencing this ? Any good solution? Thanks

I everyone, All is in the title : I am wodering if in case of a Case III recovery, the marshal pattern has a maximum length. For exemple if I have a 6 minutes delay for the EAT I can fly a 2'(turn) + 1' cold + 2'(turn) + 1' (hot) pattern. But if the delay is longer let's immagine 12 minutes can I extend the hot and cold segments to 4' (2+4+2+4) or should I fly 2 times the pattern with shorter segments like 2x(2+1+2+1) ? Thanks
