Unfortunately most static objects are not exported by DCS World so Tacview cannot display them.

Hi, Please use Flight Log (further down in the same menu) not Event Log. Event log is a work in progress :-)

This is the correct line to add to the Export.lua The Tacview installer adds this line to the end of the existing Export.lua file if the existing Export.lua file is readable. If it's still not working can you please share your dcs.log ?

These objects are not currently appearing in .acmi files at all so they are probably not being exported by DCS World. But we will double check the exporter to see if Tacview is filtering them out inappropriately.

Repairing DCS should have removed the misplaced files which are causing that error message. Can you please share with me your full log? You can send it to support@tacview.net if you prefer.

Thanks for this info - we're going to fix this is a coming update.

35MB is too big unfortunately - a custom .obj should ideally be about 10,000 faces, or just a few hundred KB max. You can try using Blender or a similar software to reduce the size.

If Analysis -> Playback Control Bar is selected and you can't find the playback control bar anywhere, try deleting the windows settings in the Registry Editor here: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Raia Software Inc.\Tacview (beta)\Local\Windows

Can you try repairing DCS World (run Repair DCS World)? This should get rid of any Tacview files which do not belong in the DCS World folder. Indicate that YES you wish to clean up extra files in game install directory after repair and indicate that you wish to DELETE any extra files found.

Tacview doesn't push updates (unless you are using it through Steam) but you can run the installer silently in the background using the command line option /Quiet if that helps at all.

We have gotten rid of Client Password because it was too confusing. Now there is only Telemetry Password. If the host enters a Telemetry Password then the client will need the password in order to use real-time telemetry while flying online.

Sorry I missed this! Did you ever get it working?

In Tacview navigate to Recording -> Real-Time Telemetry, enter the IP address and click Connect. I am attaching a small guide with screenshots.How to use real-time telemetry.doc

We did look into this but unfortunately it's not feasible for now.

If you are getting an error message like "Authorization failed: The following DLC's are not authorized and will be disabled: Tacview", this error message would be generated if Tacview files had been manually installed into the DCS World folder. All non-official modules of DCS should be installed into Saved Games folder only. Could this be the case for you? The Tacview installer should install all files in Saved Games, alternatively you can copy the contents of C:\Program Files (x86)\Tacview\DCS\ in your %USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\DCS\ folder.

We made the changes in Tacview 1.8.4 beta 6 published last Friday:https://tacview.net/download/beta/ We don't push any updates (unless you have the Steam version)

I am sorry to hear about this. Tacview is not programmed to overwrite the Export.lua file. It is programmed to add one line to the existing Export.lua file. There may be an edge case where if the existing Export.lua is not readable, it will be recreated. We are going to change this so that in the future if the Export.lua is not readable we will simply not touch it instead of recreating it.

Thanks for letting me know about the broken link - it is now fixed, please try again.

Hi, If you have directly purchased Tacview Advanced through the website (or Steam) after having already purchase Tacview Standard, you own 2 keys and you can use them on 2 separate workstations without restriction. Actually, each Tacview license is valid for 1 user on multiple workstations or 1 workstation with multiple users so if you are the only user of, say, the Tacview Advanced license, you may use it on both your P.C.'s.

We'll add Target Aspect and Heading Crossing Angle. We'll save Lateral Separation for Tacview 2.0 where you'll be able to enter your own formulas to display whatever measurements you need.

All the windows are dockable so just grab that window you want to move and drag it around and multiple options will appear allowing you to dock left, right, top bottom:

We may be able to add this to the drop-down menu between the two selected objects. But we try not to crowd it too much, so can you explain further how this information is particularly helpful to you? Also sorry but I do not understand the LS formula, can you please provide more details?

The Telemetry and Raw Telemetry windows are not currently customizable. We do plan on making them customizable in the future. You can customize the labels which can help you see at-a-glance the information you are most interested in. See the attachment:
