  1. Right on top of the cliff North of Fécamp (Cap Fagnet), there should be a German bunker from the Atlantic Wall.

  2. It would be nice to have the Etretat cliffs with the famous arch shapes modelled. They're almost visible, but not as cliffs. Etretat is the western most town on the Channel map (in Nomandy). See picture:
  3. I can't find this keybinding. This is the rotary button on the right of the main panel, which you can set to doppler to have lines on the artificial horizon that helps you to reach a hover state.
  4. Version 1.4 was released on the Apple AppStore. It adds AJS37 navigation panels (CK37 + waypoints).
  5. I'm sorry but the network libraries I'm using were not made available by Apple prior to iOS 12. Technically, I could make it work for older iOS versions, but it would require some significant development effort, which I can't justify at the moment.
  6. Glad to see that it's working now for you! If you'd like to beta test, just PM me and I'll give you the instructions. There is no formal test plan as I'm doing this application only for my leisure. However, at each new build release in the beta, I give a list of features to test, or bugs to check if they're fixed, etc... There's also a very high-level development plan here: https://github.com/users/wluc9875/projects/1. Finally, no need to be a beta tester for this, anybody can suggest new features, enhancements or file bugs here: https://github.com/wluc9875/iUFCExport-iPad/issues Regarding 1), indeed. You can now download them directly from the releases. I did it for the latest 1.3 release here: https://github.com/wluc9875/iUFCExport-LuaScript/releases/tag/v1.3 Regarding 2), I'll add it to my todo list, but I doubt it is going to be straightforward to replicate the A10C HUD on the iPad. Regarding 3), any panel with buttons and indicators could be reproduced (*). It's just a matter of time (taking screenshots, image editing, finding the right device numbers, indicator numbers, command numbers, etc....). Reproducing displays like what's inside the MFCDs require another technology, more like video streaming or making the iPad appear as an external screen. I know some other did it, but I haven't investigated that part yet. (*) sometimes, like for the Gazelle, the data returned by DCS is just unusable... Thank you!
  7. Thanks for your feedback! Below I put some hints, but since there could be so many different reasons why you have this network issue, you can also PM me if they don't help. First, just checking because you didn't mention it, does the iPad application send updates to DCS (for example when you push a button)? If yes, then you don't need to change the iPad config. Another obvious one, but I'm sure you already did that one: configuring your Windows firewall (both inbound and outbound). If your iPad doesn't get updates from DCS, you should only change your lua script config (only exception is port change but it's very uncommon). Usually option 1 should be enough, but if not try option 2 (using your iPad IP address). Note that if you launch the Hornet UFC on the iPad after your mission started, the iPad displays will be updated only after there's a display change in DCS (for example, changing COMM1 channel). To avoid this, you can launch the UFC on the iPad before starting the mission. Regarding a button to activate communication, there's none because there's no dedicated connection opened between your PC and the iPad. The network connectivity I'm using allows auto-discovery of DCS and several iPads on your local network using broadcast mechanism. It works out of the box for most, but there are few cases where you unfortunately have to do some manual config (this is due to some local network specific restrictions or other reasons that I can't control), but after config, it will work for you too. This is not yet my priority, but I could work on some way to help or automate the configuration of the addresses and ports in the app in case there's a problem with the default config, especially if there are more cases like yours.
  8. Thank you for your help! I would have never found this one, at least not while learning this module. I don't understand why Razbam couldn't name these 2 bindings (axis and key) in a similar fashion?
  9. is there any news on this one? Has Razbam ever taken this missing binding into account or even just acknowledged it?
  10. Why aren't there key bindings for increment/decrement this ASP-5 target distance?
  11. Version 1.3 was released on the Apple AppStore. It adds the A10-C UFC.
  12. Thanks a lo for your video! It definitely helped me taking off much faster (I didn't know you could do it without external power unit...). However, even if I manage to take off very fast, the helicopter is already gone while I face again Vaziani. I'll try it again another day, else this will become too frustrating
  13. First, thanks for the C101 campaign. I went through the 1st mission without any issue, although the ILS landing on Batumi was a bit scary: almost no visibility until almost on the runway...but this was fun! On the second mission, I have no clue how to find the insurgent helicopter. I take off and then, impossible to find it. Is it already gone because my startup is too slow? Something I'm missing?
  14. I'm trying to figure out if in DCS, the difference between 4K with max settings and QHD with max settings is really worth the big price difference between the NVIDIA 3070 and 3080 graphics cards. Are there any screenshots or even videos of the same locations in DCS in 4K and QHD, which I could download or view to compare?
  15. On all other DCS jets with 2 engines, when I set one engine to max and the other one to min my plane starts rolling in the opposite direction of the most powerful thrust. How come this doesn't happen with MiG 19? I checked I didn't make a mistake with my axis bindings. When I look at the engine tachometer, the needles with 1 and 2 are clearly showing different values.
  16. Version 1.2 was released on the Apple AppStore. This new version brings: - Latched switches are now synchronised with DCS - Improved graphics and animations for JF17 and AV8 UFCs (higher resolution images) - Network traffic reduced - Several bug fixes and enhancements (detail here: https://github.com/wluc9875/iUFCExport-iPad/issues?q=is%3Aclosed+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A"Version+1.2"+)
  17. Here are some news and updates. Version 1.2 in currently in beta testing. It will bring a few bug fixes and an enhancement: iUFCExport will keep switch positions in sync with DCS. It should arrive on the App Store in about 2 weeks. After that, version 2 will be coming. I have already started gathering all the switches and displays info and extracting all the required images from DCS. A10 UFC, M2000 PCN, AJS37 CK37, KA50 PVI800. Later on, more panels will be added to the existing planes... I have created and I'm working on this application on my free time for my own usage when flying on DCS. Whether you're part of the users who are using this application or who would like to, feel free to share your ideas, suggestions for the future versions.
  18. thanks for checking! so it's not an installation issue on my side. Definitely, Razbam forgot to create these animations, since they're not in the model. That's a pity. I'll submit a bug for that. I may be dreaming, but it seemed to me that the older PCN has these animations.
  19. I tried again today. For some models, like JF17, it works fine, for others like M2000, the button or indicator doesn't light up. If anybody has an explanation, that would be great, else I'll just consider it an oddity of some models...
  20. I have searched on this forum and outside, but with no luck. Besides advice to use it for creating new liveries, I haven’t any general documentation.
  21. Yes I know this tool and it works well for button animations for example, but I don’t seem to make it work for indicators that light on. Is there something special about indicator lights?
  22. What are the keyboard / mouse shortcuts to achieve rotations and pans around / along all axes? I couldn't find any documentation to modelviewer2 and so far, I only found a way to rotate and pan around / along 2 axes only. If there's any good documentation to modelviewer2 in general, I'd be more than happy to look at it.
  23. Is it possible in model viewer 2 to light indicators? I tried to change the value of the argument corresponding to a known indicator light, but I saw no changes.
  24. Is it only me or don't the PCN buttons animate, except for the parameter selection rotary? I opened the M2000 cockpit model in modelviewer2 and I see that the arguments associated with the corresponding PCN buttons are not available. Could it be an issue with my installation?
  25. new version 1.1 was released - Graphics and layout improvements - New feature: JF17 fast select switch - New feature: it's now possible to configure a different communication port - Several bug fixes and enhancements (see complete list here: https://github.com/wluc9875/iUFCExport-iPad/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed+milestone%3A"Version+1.1")
