  1. Thanks Hollywood! That's great to hear! I can't fly without VAICOM now, and while the current integration is great, this would make this virtual aviators days! Thanks again for all you do!
  2. That would be my hope as well!
  3. That could be keywords! You may need to go into the Keywords page and do the 'Finish' steps since those features were added. (If you haven't already, ignore me if you have!)
  4. That's great! I am limited on my PTT options as well with an X-52, so that is my primary motivator. I love your idea!
  5. Hey Hollywood and Co! Thanks so much for working with the SRS devs to make VAICOM work so well with SRS! My one question with dynamic switching is would there be a way (maybe I am missing it, maybe in a future release) to give SRS PTT priority until a command is given? I am aware that saying 'switch' while broadcasting on SRS would transmit it, so maybe a double tap/release of the PTT key or something similar? OR, alternatively to the current function, maybe a double tap activates SRS (I imagine Vaicom needs to control the PTT to pass it to SRS) Just a thought! Let me know if I can be of any assistance testing this! Soupy
  6. I'd like to add to this, the RWR in other modules is 'redirected' through the special radio audio options, but not in the F-14, its always through the 'main' sound device, like Jester. Cheers fellas!
  7. I have an interesting one, when I connect to the Persian Gulf Blue Flag server, the config window doesnt update with the plane I am in. While the regular radio commands worked, AIRIO did not. I connected to the Caucasus Blue Flag server, worked fine. GAW, worked fine. I ended up having to disable AIRIO and use the wheel to fly on PG. What files would help determine what is going on?
  8. Strongly suggest you watch this and avoid yanking on the stick like King Kong with a hard-on. It's not a fly by wire aircraft, nor is it a video game, and treating it like it is is whats biting you in the ass. The plane is perfectly capable of keeping up with any of the other fighters in the game, AI or player. Enjoy!
  9. Made this request in another thread that I thought was this thread, but SAS mode toggles would be great. Right now you have to bind two individual buttons if you dont have switches. Thanks for all the hard work guys!
  10. I am having the same issue, using the menus works fine. However, mine DOES say the command is constructed, as well as getting the voice command in the game. It's just nothing responds. On the same frequency, using the mouse menus, I get a response. Both radios in the F-14, haven't tried others. EDIT: Just tested with the A-10C, it appears to be working there.
  11. Just a toggle for each of those so one button press is sufficient to toggle the status (since they are binary). Currently I have to bind two buttons on my X-52 for each one. On else off means I have to hold the button, when I let it go it goes back to off.
  12. I am having an issue with Vaicom Pro and the F-14B, where it will send the command to radio 1 (pilots radio) but I get no response. Then when I key radio 2 (which you can't do from the front pit IRL) on the same frequency, I get a response. Same frequency, trying 'Texaco, approaching for refuel' on the Caucasus quick start refueling mission. Also, Simple Radio can hook into DCS and use the hotkeys assigned to whatever radios are assigned in DCS. I know Vaicom hooks in, would it be possible to utilize this in the future? Thanks for making a great product for a difficult niche landscape! It's really great, I just cant use it with the F-14 right now.
  13. Does anyone know how to add toggles? I'd like to set the SAS on and off switches to a toggle but right now the only options are on or off, necessitating two sets of binds.
  14. I feel like this is an ME bug, but whenever I try to add a Tomcat it puts it on cat 4 and resets all the static objects to the center of the ship. Hope someone can fix that eventually!
  15. I agree Senchay, I believe the stick and throttle were in their own categories before today, now they are in one called 'HOTAS' (which is more in line with the other study modules).
  16. Literally the top post in THIS thread.....
  17. It would be really really really awesome if we could choose which playback device DCS uses within DCS itself. Right now I have to rely on a third party tool, which works, but I am sure it would be more graceful if DCS could do that itself. I don't use VR but I at times need to use my headset for DCS and leave my regular output alone. If DCS was authoritative rather than just using whatever was default it would eliminate a lot of headaches for VR users I am sure.
  18. When I install this to \DCS World\ it fails IC with 'textures/font_cockpit_rus_2 @ fui/fonts/' If it's loaded into Saved Games it does not appear to work. Can anyone advise where this should be?
  19. Ok so I put the mod into the Install folder under Mods and it worked. I seem to have it in my head that mods go in the Saved games folder. Ergo, that means my final question boils down to this: How do we know what mods go in \Saved Games\DCS and what mods go in the actual DCS installed folder?
  20. :D In Saved Games, or in the install folder? See my confusion here? If there is no one solitary place to put mods, how are we supposed to use tools like JSGME or OvGME.
  21. Again, apologies if this is a stupid question but: I am trying to install the 476th TAD mod for the A-10C that allows for smaller scales on the TAD. The mod is this structure (under whatever folder it goes in): \Aircraft\A-10C\Cockpit\Scripts\TAD\TAD.lua Based on what you said before, I would place those subfolders in %DCS Install%\Coremods, correct? Because when I do that, it doesn't work.
  22. Pardon my apparent dense-ness, but is that in the Saved Games folder or the installation folder? I just want to be crystal clear. Ahh, I see a Coremods folder in the installation folder. Sorry Skate, this is why I started a new thread since this one was for authors originally :D
  23. Mods still not working? Per the update notes they should be but Skate makes it sound like maybe they need to be moved from Saved Games\DCS\Mods here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=204850&page=2 Can anyone confirm?
  24. So looking at the tool, I would create/use the VR shortcut to launch DCS, but disable VR in DCS? Thank you for your assistance! I told Hollywood_315 (of Vaicom Pro) it's folks like you who really make this community shine! Cheers!
  25. It's admittedly a weird way of doing it, but if you just look at it as a loyalty discount rather than 'e-cash', it makes more sense. I can knock a $60 purchase down to $48, that's 20%, a fair discount for a brand new module like the Harrier. You don't often see new games on a Steam sale for that level of discount.
