    It's not.  ED has alleged that Razbam used ED's intellectual property (IP) on an unrelated project without their permission.

    and how do you know that?  I haven't read that anywhere at all pal.

     

    @NineLine - how do we get a refund for the F15E.  Is there a specific process / email?

    Cancel - submitted.  Thank you.

  2. Just popped in to say 'thank you' again for such a brilliant mod / script system.  My god, I've only an IQ of 4, you boys are 6 and up for sure!  😉

     

    Seriously, very clever - thanks again!  Can you confirm for me in the Apache that i am unable to enter any letters?  For example making my own SP point.  As in..............  SP as an IDENT.

    ?

  3. Hello legends,

    This is my home cockpit.  I've loved every bit of the build and much to do but.......................  for now, I'm loving it!!  Thank you for the advice given.

     

    (moderators: posted in videos and screenshots in error.  Content to leave it there but if 1 is to stay, then please keep this one - thank you.)

  4. Hello all, hope you are all well?

    I got this for Christmas:

    GeeekPi IIC/I2C 2004 20x4 Character LCD Module Display, Support I2C Protocol, LCD 2004 Module Shield for Arduino Uno Raspberry Pi

    I've managed to get it working but not with DCS BIOS.

     

    To be honest, I haven't the foggiest of what i'm doing with it in DCS BIOS or what i could use it to display.

    For some context of my abilities, I've built about 8 panels, dual apache and F18C.  Comfortable with Arduino IDE, Bort, DCS BIOS (FP Fork) for switches, buttons, LEDs, potentiometers and Encoders.  I've nearly finished the lot and will be doing a series on it on my YouTube Channel. My last video (an alternative 12 days of christmas heli focused) if you watch it you see some of the panels in it.  Out of 10, being say a tek creations panel set, mine are an 8 I'd say.  They are good - even the wife says so and 3 months of maticulous Heli Shed time, acrylic, laser cutting, engraving and about 500 quid later, I got what i wanted.  My own custom panels.

    Pic below gives some context.

    It's a custom pit essentially, mixture of DCS BIOS, HID, WinWing Top Gun, Tek Creations kit, home made panels, 2x10inch touch Screen and Helios, mated to a 65inch 4k gaming TV.


    Bloody amazing.

     

    You might be able to see just behind the stick that i have made a wooden box as a placeholder for another custom panel - i intend to use this as a panel for light indication - SAM, Speed Brake, AAA, Xmit etc etc.  I fly almost excluisivly in Alt F1 Hud only view.

    So..............  any ideas what i could use it for?  As well as what on earth would be the coding for it?

    Very greatful for some examples (copy and paste would be nice) - hell, I'm happy to pay for it if needs be.

    Bless ya - safe flying.

    Using the same examples, the SH and the MH-60, the reason is we are still finishing the Charlie, so starting a SH doesn't make sense in that regards. As for the MH-60, our helo teams are simply tied up with current work right now. 

    A FF Su-27 is possible, but the team that would do that most likely would be the one nose deep in a MiG-29 right now. 

    So with all respect ole chap................ just 'when' do you expect to finish the Charlie?  it was after all released 30th May 2018.....

    What is the estimated timeframe to complete the F35?

  6. Well good luck with this ED.

     

    Personally, I think you should focus on actually making sure that those modules you have released over the past god knows how many years I've given you, are actually finished and not borked on every patch release...................

    Along with missions...............

    Along with campaigns...........

    That would be nice..................  wouldn't it?

  7. Same here.  Full crash rep[orts and logs submitted several times last night (so please don't ask me to dump a log file here).  Slaving George on pre made missions (mission select, or even campaigns like Horseman etc) just crashes the sim - freezes up - then up comes the report diag / crash report box.  However, not in the mission editor from scratch.

     

    Cheers.

    Hi Merkin,

    thanks for this much appreciated. I am trying to use the winwing UFC in HUD only view and have read somewhere if you export out the UFC even as a small 1 x 1 pixel the UFC should still work well i will try anyway. 

    You know that  If you are in Hud only mode and then switch to any other view other than normal cockpit, your FPS will tank?

    Lol, i spend way too much time on the internet doing geek stuff! Seriously though, you look at how msfs and dcs has leapt forwards because of initiatives from members of the community, those who have the time and skills to be creative and contribute to the community, its one of the things that helps sort out the many bugs in complex software interactions.

    DCS_Volanta.lua 2.98 kB · 0 downloads

    Completely agree - all are legends in my eyes for doing so - I've been there pal - spent years bug testing, fixing, etc but not any more.  Fact is, all software could do with far more of it nowadays than ever before - complexities, deadlines, pressures, shareholders, yadda yadda.  Thanks for the file, it's here for all and perpetuity for someone to picup and that's immensely good of you.  I've moved onto the 'moving map' mod which is bloody fantastic.  Cheers pal.

    Solved for me - dcs_volanta.lua file had never installed, nor the corersponding entry in the export.lua file. Now both in place Volanta connects perfectly in sp or mp, im running Openbeta_MT

    Great for you - revisiting this - where on earth did you get the dcs_volanta.lua file from and regarding export.lua how or where is it stipulated that this is the do file line?

    I mean if it works great but seriously, in 2024, software relies upon users to fix it when it promotes its integration into DCS World?  Wadda loada pants orbx!
