Heli Shed

Interesting - thank you - now i cant find where i got my own AMs from!!! Looking forward to trying this - thank you muchly! (edit - ahhhhhhhhhhhh i see! I used the AMs for the button and not the LED! Thank you again - grateful)

I get a define error when using these lines JC - hense direct use of Address Matrix

Sure - here you go pal: DcsBios::LED pltIntlMcautionBtn(0x801c, 0x0100, 43); DcsBios::LED pltIntlMwarnBtn(0x801c, 0x0200, 45); looking forward to seeing what Jonny Chicago says because he has it working..........................

Really? So................. master caution and warning both light up your led's in your pit? I'd be interested to see how you managed to do that my friend because all that is happening my end is my leds lighting up when the button is pressed in sim, rather than being an output in sync. for example: DcsBios::LED pltIntlMcautionBtn(0x801c, 0x0100, 43); DcsBios::LED pltIntlMwarnBtn(0x801c, 0x0200, 45); This is supposed to ensure the LED is lighting up when the master caution/Master warning is activated in the sim. But.................................. nope. Board is a Mega. Thank you.

Excellent project my friend - I'm doing likewise with a Hornet pit AND an apache as one (clicky, clicky!!). Let me know how you get on with master warning and master caution lights / led outputs. They dont seem to work even when using the address and mask as per BORT. bravo!!

Bit late to the party here but was researching and came across this. Object camera now has its own key bindings when in that mode, so...............pressing RCtrl and F2 puts you in Object camera mode, then use WASD and Pgup and Pgdwn for speed. Refer to the control key bindings in the menu.

So................ some work to do for sure but, congratulations to ED for making a start - of course this is EA and there are bound to be changes to accurately reflect what the country is actually like - from where I'm sitting after three tours, that amount of work is significant.

rob10 is correct - ignore it.

solved problem for me too however.................................. now there are random disconnects, lag, then reconnects. A revisit of a very old problem which no doubt will be resolved at some point. I'll assume this has been picked up? Dangerous I know, but I'll do it anyway. Cheers.

Probably a daft question - forgive me but with differing FOVs and eye line positions available via the RCtrl,Shift and numpad feature 'where' is the 'design eye position'? Thank you.

Thanks - all sorted now

stopped working for me since the latest simapppro patch - reinstalled and also events folder too - no joy. Anyone else having this issue? Bloody marvelous app by the way - thank you!

fixed.

same issues - no mods! Cancel that, my bad - su30 installed now removed.

Just bumping this - Congratulations @f4l0 - excellent piece of software and by far and away better than NLR own iteration of haptic control and also SimHub. I've just gotten the HF8 today and SimShaker for Aviators works a charm. Thank you. Currently on stable. Should I use the beta version of SSA? Donation inbounds - thoroughly deserved. Best wishes Tyger

Hello Legends and Heli-Heads! I've put these videos together for you over the past few days and hope it may be of some use to some of you. There are some great videos out there discussing the options but I wanted to add my own contribution focusing on evidencing the various options you have and, the thought process of selecting.................................. which one is right for you? Best wishes all, x

shockingly bad prep ED, shockingly bad! Thanks for keeping us abreast anyway but a great reminder that you own the modules and that we essentially rent them. That's right peeps - no ED, no modules.

I think volanta is dead with DCS World?

This may be helpful for you but it was a while ago and with a 1080ti. I'll be doing another shortly with the 4080 - the principle will be exactly the same. Why not give it a go - absolutely '0' stutters.

@derneuemann - part 2 and part 3 is there mate with another that is a conclusion. There is also another video which i believe releases friday which pitches the 4080 vs itself - max Fps vs Max hz. I will be testing in VR yes but to be honest, I've done that with a 1080ti and it wasn't actually the hardware but, setting up DCS right and the OQ2 right in the firstplace. However, I will test for you and others so that hopefully, will also be of benefit. @Mr_sukebe - agreed - about that yes although as you can see it Part 3 of the series there are significant other benefits too - lower heat, lower energy, better utilisation / matching with a modern and powerful cpu. In short, I think it is well matched with the 13900k which wasn't remotely bothered and I think it'd be ok too with a 12900/700 or even 11900/11700 but I think lower than that and you would be cpu bound with this bugger but............................ have any of us, ever............ been CPU bound with DCS world? Not me......

Hello legends, Helii-heads and choppers, hope this short note finds you all well - greetings and salutations to you from the Heli-Shed. I've just swapped out a RTX 3080ti for a RTX 4080 in preparation for more additional DCS World content on Heli-Shed and thought it was a really good time to crank up the settings and pit these two against one another. It's in three parts. Part 1 - Nvidia Control Panel Test Settings. Part 2 - DCS World Test Settings - these are just 'test' settings and i certainly don't recommend you fly normally with these. Part 3 - Short flight pitching them both against one another. The flight uses close ups, distance, scene switching, combat etc - all the tricks in the trade to burn the beasties being matched - in this case both cards were over 98% pretty much the whole time. I'll be putting a few other videos together giving some advice on how to make DCS world look the best for your system as I've seen some advice out there which is just plane wrong to be honest. Everyone's system is different but, if you follow a few basic rules, you'll have a really smooth experience and completely immersive. As someone with an IQ of 3, it really isn't that complicated either - if I can do it, damn sure you can too. Wishing you all well, pop along to Heli-Shed on Youtube and please do me a favour and sub me. Thank you muchly!!

turn eye tracking off and use head only - you'll be glad you did OP.

Thank you Sirrah

Thank you corbu1 - nice of you to say. Appreciate that.

Dear Pilots, I hope this short note finds you all well and getting some flying hours in, on this wonderful Sim of ours - DCS World. I wanted to post a short note via 2 videos that respectfully informs those subscribers to my lil YouTube channel of DCS World. They will know that lately, I rebranded 'Wing-Flex' to HELI SHED and started to add content for my other luv in this life - Radio Control Helicopters. I thought that was deserved of explanation. I'm just adding variety on one channel for those things I love. Helicopters and DCS World. RC Helicopters have always been a big part of my life but, DCS World has not gone away, far from it. We'll be ramping up DCS world content, but of the Helicopters only - all of them! Fly-ins, missions, tutorials (we've already done one on Polychop's SA342 Gazelle that is linked all over) live workshops and some top tips! There are some fantastic channels out there for DCS world and I am in no means engaging in competition with them - the more channels there are, the better for our niche in my view. I'd be grateful for the support if you haven't already - it's a lot of work putting vids together for the TubeofYou and followers. Having been a strong advocate of LOMAC, FC, FC2, DCS World, a former ED Tester, content creator and VFS leader, I've been about a tad over the many years and many older ones will know me as 'Tyger' from the 104th as a SL & WC of the old 74th. I very much fly as a lonewolf nowadays with a very small group of friends and family and it allows me to put it down and pick it up as and when life allows and, means I can really enjoy the sim for me, instead of creating routines for others. I loved it in the day and all the guys of course but, retiring after 26 years service in the British Army-Infantry (PWRR) in 2013, meant that I had to focus on family, a new worklife and then 'anything else'. DCS world had a knack of becoming my all, of 'everything else'! Of course it would......... So lookout for plenty of DCS World content from me/us but don't be alarmed if as a subscriber, you get a notification of RC Helicopter content - you never know........... you might pick one up. Seriously though, DCS World is and always will be, high up on priority. Respectfully & thank you Tyger A Special DCS World Video put together by Pilgrim for HELI SHED 'The Helicopters of DCS World'
