Possible solution to no speed showing on HUD Hi Everyone Since my last post on this I think I may have tumbled over a solution. I have never had the speed showing on the HUD. I found by pressing the backspace button on key board ( 'Button targeting Mode Reset' ) the HUD symbols change and speed indicator shows on top left. This works most times-sometimes I have to press the shkval uncage button few times for the speed to re appear. It's better than before -but not ideal solution. Hope it will helpful Qas

Hi everyone New to the ka 50. I Just noticed the speed indicator on top left is missing in my ka 50. I have searched the forum but nothing has helped. No speed shows at either low or high speeds. Only the camera shows speed on top left many hanks for any suggestions. Qas

Hi Many thanks or the suggestions, In this video he is usingt he dcs controls menu to do it. Not clear to follow-I was thinking on this lines. Many thanks Qas

Hi everyone I just came across a u tube video on how to mod the Hotas to create extra commands from the buttons. The video was using a different joystick. Is this possible with the warthog please,and if so are there any good links you can suggest. Many thanks. Qas

Many thanks everyone- I wasn't aware of the portrait orientation. I will play with the numbers til I get something that looks OK. many thanks again for all the ideas. Qas

Hi everyone I have dual monitor setup (different size monitors) and my total resolution is set at 1920 X 1980. everything was OK except the knee board was split between the 2 monitors-with unusual large text. Using the suggestions on the forum I have managed to re- position the knee board to position (0,0) and size 800,400,image attached. The text size is still very large-forum search hasn't offered any solutions. Can someone please advise what do I need to edit to make the text normal size again.or do I just need to make the knee board bigger size? many thanks. Qas

Hi everyone Can you please advise how to update to 2.5.5. I have run the updater. After few seconds it messages I have latest version 2.5.4......?. Is 2.5.5 only for beta testers.? Qas

Many thanks everyone-I see the x3 at the bottom of the selections for the AGM. My fault for noting paying attention.

Many thanks. I am new to DCS. To learn the basics I have created A simple mission. Under weapons options I do not see any 3x AGM. Thank you for clarifying this option is not available all the time. Once I start doing preset missions may be an option will be available. Is it possible to edit weapons load in pre set missions? Thanks again.

Hi Everyone Sorry to ask again-I have failed to find how to put 3 AGM's per wing -as in photo attached. Can you please advise if this this possible in mission builder and how. Many thanks. Qas

Many thanks -I have downloaded one created one set of views. Qas

Mr Holce- Your last image is brilliant- is this possible with normal PC and a lua file. If so can you please share your lua file. I have my MFCDs on second monitor-and there is still lots of space to fit few more panels. I would love to get the side panels on my second monitor. In the lua do you create new co-ordinates and name them as Radio panel_left etc. I will really appreciate all the help. Many thanks.

Many thanks-After many trials and errors I think I have achieved what I was after. You guys have been great. I will share my photos in few days. Qas

Many thanks. It’s good to know for future Maybe mrs will be come forgiving and approve Purchase of Lilliputi. Qas

Many thanks Mr Supmua. I have manged to get the 2 MFCD on my second monitor. I am grateful for the above lua file.etc. I am still unsure about few things. 1. The MFCD in dcs world cannot be clicked and dragged any where- 2 How do you get the MFCD to fit onto the 7'' external monitors that some sim builder have- I think they use the lilliput monitors. Many thanks for all the help everyone. Qas

Hi Many thanks for all this. My monitors are next to each other in windows. I will definitely try your method. Thank you Qas

Hi Everyone As per Supmua suggestion-I created a new lua file and used the above settings- When I loaded dcs the screen image was very tall and narrow. I started all over again-I kept the MFCD settings same but for centre I copied the settings from 1camera lua. This has made the 2 MFCD in external view disappear. I had always wanted to do this and by accident I have done it. I am scared to do anything else. I had a go with Hansangb method-I have done part one-where the mission screen is small with black border. I am still stuck with 2nd part-I will read and read... before trying. The question now what has happened to the two missing MFCDs in the external view by the first method-can I resize and place them on my 2nd monitor. Overall I am very happy with my achievements-at least I have managed to remove the MFCDs from external view. Please do keep helping with alternative methods to place the MFCD on second screen Many thanks everyone for all the help.Much appreciated. Qas I am enclosing my lua file that has made the external mfcd disappear-may editing these can put them on my second screen

Many thanks everyone-I will give it go and keep you updated.

Hi Everyone I have 2 monitors-at the moment I am only using 1 monitor settings. I also play on P3D4 -the MFDs can be easily transported to 2nd monitor.(click and drag) I would like to do the same here.I have searched and all the suggestions point to editing the lua files. This automatically take all the wind out of me-I have zero editing experience. Can some please help and send me a tutorial -or point to an easy one-how I can do this. I have 2 iiyama 30'' monitors-It will be great if I could put the 2 mfd on the 2nd mintor, Many thanks. Qas

Hi Everyone. Many thanks to all for taking time to help. With your help, I have managed to resolve the problem. The above option was unchecked. All OK now after checking it. Many thanks.:pilotfly:

Hi everyone I am new to the DSC world-and recently bought the Hotas set up. Can someone please help me with the A10c cold startup throttle position. In the videos etc it says you can start engines by pushing the left/right throttle from their stop positions to idle position. I cannot,.my throttle in sim does not move until engine is running??? I have to use the r-CTL-Home/END to start the engines. can you please advise how do I bind these keys to the throttle levers,or is this not possible. I have searched the forums -the explanations are little over me. Many thanks.

Hi Many thanks for taking time to answer. I did have 'player' selected in mission editor. I have managed to find the issue. Despite un-checking Game Mode in general options,the A10C game kept loading . The reason for this was because in the game editor under Customise/ mission options in the overlay section ,the Games Avionic Mode was checked ( under value section).I think this is default setting. I hadn't even opened this option till today. on trail and error-un-checking it made the A10C behave as real thing. Happy days.:pilotfly: The problem now is everything is so difficult.:mad: May be I was better off with games Avionic mode????:doh: Many thanks - Qas

Hi everyone-sorry I am here again for some more help. So far I have not played any missions that come with game. I have created my own little mission to help me learn the basics. In mission settings I have selected A10C with average skills. I am hoping someone please help me set up the A10C real in my game. I thought it loaded automatically when I selected Simulation in settings. In my start up settings I have selected simulation. In the game I have mapped same keys to both A10C real and A10C game. Recently I have been trying to learn multiple maverick firing. I mapped the steer point keys -flight pl, Mark to my key board. In game,I get no response when I press the key board,this makes me think that although in my in game options I see A10C real- the A10C real is not in play. The other reason is I still see the red diamonds on my targets -whether I have A10C real or A10C game selected in my games options. I have enclosed 3 screen shots to explain my sections. Can someone please suggest how can I tell if A10C real is loaded or the A10C game when I started a mission. Sorry for the confusing explanation- Qas

many thanks -found it, things will get easier now-youtube will be happy with break
