Toni Carrera

@frostycabI suppose that I was trying to make out that I do not hoon about at large speeds, in reality, I would rather control my speed and arrive late, than give it the full beans and die en route. I know the picture provided did not show that, but that is what I find happens after I have been flying a while, the speed just creeps up and up, because I almost feel like I have the pitch full forward at times to stop it pointing at the moon Well I thought that too about the axis, but I tried pulling out everything but the joystick and collective, both of which are TM product, HOTAS Warthog and Stick (using F/A-18C add-on grip As for the stab, not a 100% on that, I will check in next flight. I have tried resetting all controllers, and axis, but the same occurs. It just seems to always want to be nose high whatever I try. I will gather some more information and provide on here. I feel though, with all aircraft I fly, I work almost at times with decimals of degrees. I am so gentle on the controls, and not a yanker and banker, just a so gentle, as I have been when flying real helicopter, granted not a military one. I work on the 'Slow is smooth, smooth is fast' methodology, always trying to avoid pilot induced oscillation One question, when you are flying the Apache, say at 40kts and release the stick, what does the helo do, with zero trim. What does your nose do? Toni

I have nothing above 828 and yet you can see that I have the updated AH-64D_BLK_II.lua in the right path as per below You can see from the image, at the top, the path to the export script and the content of the file containing the new information

OK, well I do not wish to enter in to an argument about it, so I will just pull back from my question. I can assure you at lower speeds, 60's to 90's, I have the issue where naturally the helicopter sits way above the transition line and I have to maintain a huge amount of forward pitch to just keep the crosshairs on the dashed line Worry not, I will just get my Stream Deck profile done for the CPG that some are waiting for, and go back to the F/A-18C Apologies for wasting everybody's time in reading this thread Toni

I am deffo in the sim and the display is showing both C and F values and in ARM mode Toni

Hi Bailey, That is what I took from our other conversation and yet this is what I get and here is script and path Nada

I am totally confused, why can I not get the values from new script to display. I know I am doing something stupid, or not doing something at all I have downloaded the new export script for the AH64D_BLK_II.lua and placed it where it needs to be, but can't work out which value to put in the Title Text Change field Sorry for being an idiot Toni

I do not want to travel fast, I want to be slow if anything, the problem is that I am spending so much time pushing forward, that the speed is all over the place. I can assure you that even at around 60 kts, in order to keep the aircraft from pitching nose high (a lot), I have to keep the stick way forward The image I selected to show was, the last I took of 7. I will reduce the curve in options to 10 and repost image

HI sobe, Unfortunately, I am not well versed enough in the ability to diagnose issues when it comes to your scenario. Could it be something to do with the ports that they work on. I remember when watching the setup video from Charles Tytler, where he talks about if you want to run StreamDeck as well as another 3rd Party device or service/software at the same time Sorry that I can't be more helpful, I promise you that I would if I could Toni

Hi All, I have managed to sort out my Anti-Torque issue now, but I have a significant issue with Pitch In order to just maintain level flight, you can see by the attached image, how much forward stick I have to apply, just to try and maintain level flight I am trying to avoid using Trim at the moment, as that just makes everything worse. The problem is that as soon as I get airbourne pretty much, my nose is pointing to the sky, and I am fighting to keep it down as you can see from the control axis in the top right, so rather than nice controlled flight, I am spending most of my time looking out the window pretending I am a Kangaroo I am constantly centering my TrackIR whilst in flight. One thing I have noticed, if it is relevant in anyway, is that I seem to be sitting quite high in the cockpit on start. I have to reduce the physical height of my head by scooching down in my chair, and reducing my cockpit head height with RCTRL+RSHIFT+NumPad2, to get anywhere near being able to BoreSight my IHADSS. Makes it worse that I have to do it every time I restart the flight, not sure if I can save it so I do not keep having to do it. I have tried without TrackIR and the same issue is there I am not sure if you can tell by my image whether or not my cockpit head is at the right height. Like I said though, my biggest issue is the fact that I am having to apply so much forward stick, just to keep the nose down, even to just stay level in height, but because I am doing that, I have no real ability to control my speed. As soon and I box the speed, it immediately disengages and I also get the tone Please can someone help me with this, the aircraft is unflyable as is. I do not get this issue in the UH-1, SA-342 etc Thank you for your attention Toni

Hi All, Not sure if I am allowed to publish this type of thread on the forums, but just in case I am allowed; I have put Version v.01b of my AH-64D Apache (Pilot Only currently) StreamDeck XL profile on the User Files section of the main site. If interested, you can find it here - https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3321515/ I hope you like it Toni

@Bailey No, wasn't fake, that was me. Sorry, I jut thought you meant on here

@BaileyDo you mean you have PM'd me, if so, I have not received it @Topcat357 I too want to create a sub-page that allows you to press the Lamp Test button and have them all display on said page. Sort of like I did on my F/A-18C profile, where it reported the status of various configurations, things like Gear Status, Launch Bar Status, Flap Status and so on etc, only this time you will press the lamp test and it will show all the lamp values, being both go/no go Is that what you meant regarding lamp test output? I have found the outputs and will start to create a sub-page now for the outputs for the main key lights now, and will publish asap Toni

@Bailey, anyone for that matter, any idea how I can get the values for CMWS Flares and Chaff remaining values so I can put it on a display for the appropriate page Thanks Toni

Yep, that worked @idenwen Just got to understand what this is telling me now Toni

Hi All, As previously mentioned, the profile is now available, as well as the first update which makes the already great icons by @pellelil even better by the new set he/she released You can find the profile at https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3321515/ Hope you like the first version, which is only for the pilot. I will make a start on the variant that will include the CPG controls also Toni

I have just published my first pass at the StreamDeck XL AH-64D 'Pilot Only' profile, I am sure it will appear as long as ED do not have any problems with it. I will post the link when it appears in User Files Toni

@frostycab I have this issue, uninstall from StreamDeck the DCS Interface, and reinstall it. I personally am reinstalling version 1.0.4 of StreamDeck XL interface This resolves for me the issue where when I press a button that has already worked I get an Exclamation Mark, and the is not information for any module, and no modules even listed under 'ID Lookup' Apologies if what I am describing is not relevant and wasting your time. I am also wondering if the latest update to the StreamDeck software itself is causing, at least it has just dawned on me that this is when my problem started Toni

Let me have a look and I will see what I have, what aircraft are we talking about, AH-64D?

@Bailey I have completed the first pass of the 'Pilot' profile, which I will package up and post later on. Guess it will take a day or so to appear on the User Files I still have some bits I have not worked out how to do, such as display the values of Chaff and Flare content/remaining Other than that, I think I have mapped via Device and Commands IDs only, all the switches and buttons. The only exception to Device ID etc, is the CTRL & V to show/hide George, that is a straight Keyboard Shortcut Anyway, off to final test it Toni

@jibletAre you referring to an older version of the StreamDeck Plugin or Export Scripts? I have versions of various dates going back to about July last year, as I am a bit OCD on keeping historic stuff

There is certainly something weird going on, my StreamDeck XL is only now randomly being able to recognize that I have DCS and the SD connected. Been fine for 8 months, and in the last couple of weeks, since upgrading and going back to the original version of the interface 1.0.4. I spent all day yesterday programming my SD for the AH-64D without a single issue, now today, I can't get it to connect at all

Thank you Bailey

@Topcat357 You and me both, I can't believe that years of flying helicopters in various Simulators, including DCS, and after flying her for every day since day 1, I am still unable to fly her in any meaningful way Anyway, back to the Profile, I will have finished the entire StreamDeck XL 'Pilot' profile today, and will release in User Files Toni

Still does not explain why we saw the original video from Wags had the different set of indicators in the top-right, which he said in response to my YouTube that we would also have these on display Toni

Yay, now we are cooking. So from an action point of view, I use what I have been, for the display point of view, that is what you were referring to before Bailey when you said read the value of the lamp in the ExportScript Understood now My sincerest thanks to you both for your patience an understanding, I truly appreciate the information you continue to, and have provided to me Off to code the rest of them now Toni
