  1. old post, got it sorted? each column has a save option at the right of it's upper bar. Save it with it's own *.dif.lua, name and it will be saved in ... Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\InputUserProfiles It makes sense to add the plane name to your file with joystick or pedals to remember what it was.
  2. Hi. I'm new to model making with Blender, sorry .. Importing EDM files with Blender 2.8 was not possible before. But how's about 4.3.2 and installed-from-didsk addon 231029 io_scene_edm installed? It seems to have loaded OK but wont show up in the list of importable file types, must you activate something for that and where ??:
  3. Alas ... stupid question. There's no simple fix like importing the .edm files in some EDM editor and exporting a fixed version automatically? https://github.com/ndevenish/Blender_ioEDM PS just saw this tool in Model Viewer 2: null
  4. I think the mod is based on the in game SU-25T frogfoot source code, which's place seems to have been taken by my bought P51D as i understand so far. Probably due flyabillity. Just PM'd Patrick56 about it, curious.
  5. I found this USER DC3-C47 MOD, and it seems a player C74 add on plane. Promising? https://www.mediafire.com/file/sqsacfbsggxecjo/DOUGLAS_DC3__by_ERIC_ET_PATRICK_CUESTA_UPDATE_2017.rar/file It seems to load and even work in game 2.9.13.6818.2. but there are no graphics, and when flying there is only an active aiming display, no cockpit.... Any tips or suggestion s for a fix?
  6. Just got it going with your fixed VPC 0.9.6 mod: (posted elsewhere too)
  7. Thanks Eduardo for your VPC Airfield Equipment 0.9.6 beta .. finally i found it, and got streetlights working. A test - Syria map, ww2 assets, combined arms needed.`WLLYS by night Syria TEST v2.miz Now the wait is for lights on all vehicles LoL
  8. I PM'd you, thanks ...... Here's Nigel in IL2 ... hope the DCS fellers would look more like Michael Cain and the pilot like James Bond.
  9. Bought it, looks great, but still have to try it out better; hope there will be more ground surface objects like villages and roads to come. Mods with lamas, sheep, condors and locals with ponchos LoL.
  10. What makes DCS and ww2 more interesting than IL2 are the ships, ground objects, especially drive-able stuff, the maps and more. And helicopters as side line.. Sorry you're bothered by my simplifying wishes ... LoL. Indeed, out of frustration i take the Mosquito among others out for a spin in IL2 once in a while. And yep, especially with it's ww1 stuff you could do with a lot less hardware. IMO for DCS (as gaming fun) the mousing affairs are something i feel idiotic in the midst of action. Must be my personal taste. I might miss that game mode now dismissed in the recent versions of DCS since i started with it. BTW made quite a few missions (and skins) with IL2, mostly as historic as possible. Tried to make a few for DCS as well, only half finished so far alas. Here's an unfinished attempt-test for some not happened mission in regards of Operation Cerberus by the Nazis with a Mosquito. Attack Hawkeye60's beautiful Nazi ships coming from Brest before they get away .. + Operation Cerberus v1b_JJ.miz
  11. Payload means load of the weapon (setup, like for bombs, rockets, paratroopers etc). finally got the arming for bombs in Streamdeck. You'll have to open the bomb safety panel first, then set fuses etc as above, but first set up the keyboard keys right on the controller page for all those mousing actions, and finally the joystick dropping bombs button (in Stick). I still have some engine management setup wrong in my warthog throttle for the Mosquito, keeps losing power and hits the drink (or ground) after air-start. Time to get away from DCS for a while now.
  12. So i have got a streamdeck 2 button press sequence setup working for the mosquito ... 1st is the bomb doors toggle, 2nd for the complex selector (Camera or Bombs) and fuse arming etc. But i cannot find the sector for the bomb type payload, 250lb or 500lb (bomb lcompartment) yet ... I found a lot in ChazFlyz manual. Tips? 2nd button setup:
  13. will look into that, thanks
  14. Went a little further in setting up the Mosquito's button setup with Streamdeck. Mousing around with the yellow + on various switches like bomb functions for doors, bomb station, flaps, gear lever, Bombs to Camera lever, magneto switches, and many more just seem to have a one way - one time activity, and the switch etc wont react again to the mousing + . Is that a bug?
  15. https://www.warhistoryonline.com/instant-articles/beer-carrying-spitfires-of-wwii.htmlhttps://www.warhistoryonline.com/instant-articles/beer-carrying-spitfires-of-wwii.html this is just only one page filled with juice for mission makers ... shop around for ideas.
  16. Was testing a home mission With a spitfire using Beer Bombs .. and wondering why they did not explode on one of Hawkeye60's mighty Nazi ships. This explains it ..... https://www.warhistoryonline.com/instant-articles/beer-carrying-spitfires-of-wwii.html This whole warhistoryonline URL might be inspirational for ww2 missionm makers.

  17. General remark: I am more into WW2 planes, and also a tourist; not too much into one but like to switch planes a lot. So i got into programming Macro's for Streamdeck. The latter is not capable yet of sequences involving the win keys, f.i pressing Multiple action Hotkeys Lwin+Home with one button would not work alas, or Lwin+Lalt+1 for Rearming. Without a win key Streamdeck works fine. Been extensively communicating with Elgato Support, and they might come up with a fix. I got a Razer tartarus v2 gamepad added now that works fine with the win keys, alas misses the programming graphics displays of the Streamdeck. Has also only 32 buttons.
  18. Just found this 2019 collection, so far no read me alas .. https://www.mediafire.com/file/jey19urdo7a2k8j/NAVAL_MOD_COLLECTION.zip/file ADDED: just found out; GAME MASTER ONLY should be on for the ships to show in the game ...
  19. looking at the content, WWII DKM German Naval Squadron, there's no readme, only en encylopedia file ..
  20. My notes are a chaos LoL. Right now i am trying to figure out AGAIN how to activate Hawkeye's ships in a mission. GRRR
  21. Found the latest in the game doc folder: DCS User Manual EN.pdf
  22. Quite used to it now, if only the win keys would work it's a perfect asset for DCS. That little Razer thing is in fact better and easier, but it hasn't got the programmable button displays.
  23. ADDED 3 - Just got another mail from elgato tech support, they're still working on it, and sent them extensive reports on the not working wth win keys, when setup in streamdeck. Meanwhile i got a second hand Razer Tartarus v2 ganmepad ... that works fine with the win keys in multi action key setups.
