RIO: LANTIRN not visible, HUD huge (current OB)
bumblebomb replied to bumblebomb's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
Well, thanks - I had to rejoin for unrelated tech issues so the pod was there already, I'll check next time anyway. -
Hi all, 2 minor bugs: today (latest OB as of 16jun2020) flew RIO, had LANTIRN under wing, worked, too, but wasn't visisble to me, Pilot did see it. Other is almost cosmetic: when peering over the pilot's should the HUD is huuuuge. I'd day about 10x. Probably rather a DCS issue and really no biggie. EDIT: wrong subforum, my bad. Please move.

Additional flight names and numbers.

Is it possible meanwhile to have DCS start on an arbitrary screen in a multimonitor setup? On my dual screen so far I had DCS on first screen which happens to be the right on, but now I need a third to the left, and I don't want to go triple screen with DCS but have it on center. Now center screen then isn't the first anymore. Latest openbeta 2.5.6

Specter, do you have any names mods?
-
Even with Vaicom not running same result at first respawn. Only me, rest of the squad fine. Fresh after repair, no mods kept, all moved to backup (was only one in names database)
-
Same today on a server case3 mission with 5 pilots online: only difference: I use Vaicom, the rest not, but Vaicom is not queueing commands, I did all inbound calls via keyboard. The only other difference: when I had to leave the server to re-install SRS I reconnected. I suspect my client registers with the SC but does not un-register it when the role changes / client leaves. I got calls for 411 all the time while I *was* 411 but it was 416 actually talking to ATC. Everybody else was fine, but everybody else stayed in their slot right away, hence my suspicion.
-
Said buddy here, confirm. It seemed the SC module was always one role-slot-change behind, I heard calls for 414 (Shimmergloom) when I was 414 while he was 415 etc. No numbers for Bort, only vanity plates:

3x27" 16:10, in nvidia surrond set to act as one large 6120x1200 (6120, not 5760 because of bezel masking), so far works ok, but on the outer monitors the image stretches and center position at max zoomed out is only just right but can't move back any further. How do I adapt screen setup to match the widescreen, and how can I keep 2 configs for triple/single switching?

default monitor in multi monitor setup
bumblebomb posted a topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Hi, want to switch back and forth from triple screen and single screen for experimenting with triple. When I switch back from triple to single DCS comes up on the right screen - no good. How to I force it to middle? -
Where was an explicit release date announced?
-
Solved, thanks :)
-
Good point, will try. Though the pilot can operate both. Worked like this, is like this in real life.
-
PTT tab: https://pasteboard.co/J6nv06h.jpg I'll try the specials option as soon as I'm around the machine again.

Hi all, the 3way switches: PATH/HDG/ALT and the outside pinky switch are wearing out. I hear the autopilot mode switch is only available from TM as the entire PCB so I guess rather costly. I'm good with the soldering iron, so what parts fit there?
-
Which config screen exactly? Special options? There I have "Radio and PTT: Don't use default PTT Radio Menu Buttons for SRS" and various hotas buttons mapped in "Radio", but just for testing, did not work with no buttons mapped in DCS at all. Switched on debug logging. Anything specific to look out for?
-
Hi, I always struggle to find a good picture upload to share a screenshot in support forums. Is there a recommended one?
-
PTT Tab dial "SNGL MULTI NORM INV" is on NORM - correct?
-
No, then it's there and does "resume" and "suspend", actually listens, does the radio "kchk", too.
-
Since recently TX1 is greyed out in the ctl-alt-c config dialog. When I press the HOTAS button Vaicom (the thumb 4way on a TMWH throttle, stick2, button4), Vaicom even lists: "Transmit TX1 press" "Transmit TX1 release" BUT there is no "k-chk!" noise and no messages like on TX2: "Transmit TX2 press" Listening resumed "Transmit TX2 release" Listening suspended No idea what got messed up. Pointers appreciated. Works in the FA-18 so I guess it has to do with F-14 specific options, not sure though. I got no radio buttons mapped in DCS but let Vaicom handle it all or mapped to "SRS only" buttons.

Heatblur Development Update - Thunder & Cat
bumblebomb replied to Cobra847's topic in Heatblur Simulations
wow, nice, thanks! -
After using the Deltasim slew I think Thrustmaster should shove theirs up an eligible orifice.
-
... think I fixed it. Re-installed Vaicom and re-did settings. Specified path again and checked OB, too, maybe that did it.

2.5.6 current open beta

One other thing: when I click "finish" I get a message "There was a problem during file export-OPenClipboard Failed (Expection from HRESULT: 0x800401D0 (CLIPBRD_E_CANT_OPEN))" Seems to be a code issue rather depending on framework versions, guessing (but only guessing) from: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12769264/openclipboard-failed-when-copy-pasting-data-from-wpf-datagrid
