I add new panels on request by users. So if you'd like a CDU, I can work on it. It will come after another request I got about adding a DED to the F-16 ICP. Meanwhile, feel free to use the Android app that @MirabelleBenou suggested if it works for you.

Weird. I suppose you made sure to make the changes I highlighted to the Lua script or that you replaced it with the new version from GitHub, right? (no change needed on the iPad side)

I had this campaign for a while but never managed to get past mission 1. It requires 3 landing in small areas and a hover for the ASW. And if you mess up with one, which always was the case for me, then the mission had to be restarted and it's quite long, because a Huey is not that fast crossing the water from the Argo to Batumi and back. Since then I got better with landings on the Huey and tried again mission 1. It's still very stressful for me to land on this tiny ship area, but this time I made it and for the first time I read: "Mission Accomplished"!!!! Overall nice voice overs and explanations about what you have to do. I can't wait for the next missions.

Was because of a mod. I just disabled all of them, and now I can see again the Tarawa.

I confirm that when I disable my mods (only a few aircraft mods), there's no problem with bombing in the SU 25T.

Ships where you"re supposed to land are not visible, like Tarawa for easy mission. They appear when opening the mission in the mission editor, though.

I tried the same mission replacing the F1 with other planes like M2000, F/A 18 or F 14. I had normal fps. Same with F1 without radar on. As soon as radar is turned on, I lose at least 20 fps, which makes it almost unplayable in VR.

+1 Shimmering very bad for me too (Quest 2). No extra sharpening used.

Today, I was flying and doing some weapon practice with the SU-25T. All weapons worked fine, but using bombs (like FABs) is no longer possible. In the HUD, the CCIP reticle doesn't show on the ground but seems to be mirrored up in the sky. If I manage to put this reticle on the ground with a very steep dive, it turns into a diamond, like for activating post-designate (CCRP-like) and then guidance circle is completely offset to the left. So, neither CCIP or CCRP bombing no longer works for me.

The root cause of the bug related to the UFC line updates after pushing PB10 is still under investigation from my side. However, I found a workaround to fix it. In the iUFCExport.lua script, just comment out these 2 highlighted lines at the bottom of the file (using 2 dashes like I did). I'll post a new version of the lua for those downloading them from GitHub.

I've tried several campaigns in DCS, built-in and paid campaigns. Since the really great paid campaigns I played for the A-10C like The Enemy Within or Operation Piercing Fury, I found most of the other campaigns either too much repetitive, too hard or requiring you to read tons of documents to prepare your mission for hours, until I found Serpent's head campaign. It was number 2 on the store so I decided to look first for #1, which is downloadable for free from the DCS user files. So far, after 3 missions, I enjoy again DCS campaigns. Not overly complex, not overly administrative, but just enough realistic and enough stressful for a weekend F/A-10 "pilot". I bought Serpent's Head 2 campaign right away! Thank you for building these campaigns!

@5ephir0th I'd like to give it a try, but which resolution should be increased by 20%?

After all I read on the forums and saw on YouTube, I was very excited to try the new graphic settings of DCS 2.9, especially DLSS. Note that I use DCS in VR with a Quest 2. In OpenXR, I have no upscaling, only foveated and turbo modes on. I already had some experience with DLSS with the other civilian flight simulator: it helped for the FPS, but because of the blurriness, even with "DLSS quality", was a no-go. It was impossible to read the gauges properly. It shouldn't have been a surprise, but same for DCS, DLSS makes the gauges and other texts blurry in the cockpit. Adding sharpness doesn't help much. The one big improvement for me was DLAA. All shimmering was gone and the clarity was slightly improved, but at the cost of FPS, too much in my case. So, I just gave back on DLSS, DLAA and continued with my older settings, except that there was one good news with DCS 2.9: I could push the sliders quite a lot to the right for the details, clutter, trees, etc settings and without noticeable FPS drop. That was the good news of DCS 2.9 for me. Maybe I didn't leverage DLSS/DLAA settings properly. If anybody has alternative suggestions regarding these settings, please feel free to advise.

Yes, same here. It had nothing to do with "DCS/Steam bindings". It was "just" Steam server problems yesterday. All is running fine again today.

Thanks @silverdevil. I have already read it, but I have no account binding anywhere and I don't remember I ever did for DCS. So it can't solve my issue.

While waiting for this situation to be fixed, I wanted to switch to IL2 GB.... and surprise: same issue. No more authorizations to launch the game either... I wonder if it's a general Steam issue or a general issue with the DCS and IL2 servers...

I read somewhere that there was now an issue from Steam users of DCS, especially the ones mixing Steam and standalone modules. I'm launching and buying DCS modules exclusively from Steam. Why can't I get any more authorizations from DCS and have my 89 DLCs disabled? I checked in my DCS profile on DCS Web site and didn't find anything about "binding" as other thread mentioned. Exact error message at start is: Failed to get authorization data. Error code is 502. No saved authorization found.

Have you tried to switch to Dark Mode? It looks like it does what you're asking for.

yes, I saw you could order replacement parts on their web site and I did so.

Thanks for the feedback! WSO UFC is not supported yet. The vol rotaries are not implemented. I used that free space to put the channel increment/decrement instead, because the white button is already used for push. If it's too disturbing, I can change the increment/decrement position. I noticed the radio frequency decimal position issue. I'll fix that this weekend. I know the PB10 button doesn't get a display update, but I didn't notice that the MENU button does the same. I'll check that.

You're welcome ! I noticed the problem with PB10 too. For now, I don't understand what's going on. It's as if DCS wasn't sending any update after you push this button and only this button. Will analyze more this weekend. WSO seat is not supported yet.

Note that I'll stay with MFG Crosswind. In their Web site, you can order any replacement part, which is pretty cool.

My MFG Crosswind has a broken USB port. It was a in weak state since the beginning, but was still working fine until today. I'll try fixing it, but in case I can't fix it, what would you recommend as replacement pedals?

-- And here are finally the updated Lua files: https://github.com/wluc9875/iUFCExport-LuaScript/releases/tag/v1.8

-- The new version is now released on the App Store. I realized I missed one thing: publishing the updated Lua script. I'll do that in an hour or two. Meanwhile, your display will remain empty. Sorry about that.
