I am having some trouble setting up my interceptor pedals with DCS, and I am wondering if I am doing something wrong. Here is my setup: VPC button panel VPC CM3 base w/ Warthog stick VPC CM3 throttle Wingwing PTO2 Winwing MIP (VR) VPC Interceptor pedals Everything is working fine in DCS, except for the rudder pedals. For some reason it is not showing up in the upper columns in the controls binding menu. All devices have been calibrated. Weirdly the pedals are showing up in the VPC software, I see all the axis inputs are correct, but not showing up in DCS. I have a lot of devices (not including keyboard and mice), is it possible I reached a devices limit in DCS??? I don't think my issue is hardware caused because I can see the rudder pedals working properly in the VPC software. Any other idea? Thanks

I cant get late activation to work for the life of me! So for context I'm trying to setting up a F18 to fly through a trigger zone that activates a KC-130 to spawn for aerial refueling. I've made the trigger zone. Then done trigger conditions for "Part of Group in Zone" and set client group and trigger zone respectively. Set action as "Group Activate" and the group i want to activate. No matter what the even before spawning in the group is active. I have also tried setting this using flags. Conditions part of group in zone and set client planes. set action as "Flag On" then set a flag number. Then do another set of trigger conditions for "Flag is True" then flag number i used. Set action as "Group Activate" and desired group, and when you load in as spectator its already flying. Can anyone please help explain to me where ive went wrong? lol Stealthhs' F18 Training.miz

Hello ladies and gentlemen, I would like to start this thread in order to have one place where we can all contribute to the gathering of F1EQ documentation, cockpit photos, and other information regarding the Iraqis’ revered and infamous F1EQ, preferably the F1EQ-6, but all otherwise is welcomed. I hold the belief that, after the release of the BE and M, an F1EQ variant has been the most popular wishlist request for the Mirage F1 module. The F1EQ-6, the ultimate F1, was above and beyond in its capabilities, and was easily the most capable variant of the F1 from a Dassault factory. I would like for anyone interested in this project to contribute, whether by searching for documentation and pictures, or just having conversation and sharing information on the elusive F1EQ, in the hopes of catching Aerges’ eyes. I believe the F1EQ would be an incredible addition to DCS, considering its historical importance in the theatres of war seen in DCS, such as the Persian Gulf. The Scourge of the Persian Gulf, the Tomcat Killer, the infamous Mirage F1EQ! I do this, as I am personally a huge fan of the F1EQ, but also because I know that many other DCS: Mirage F1 fans are as well, and I want to have one place where Aerges can see all of us working together and showing that we do want an F1EQ, and that we, or me personally, would not mind paying extra, as it is a very advanced and complicated variant of the F1. Everyone is welcomed, so if anyone has any information, documentation, or pictures (cockpit or external), share it here!

Hello everyone, I am trying to create a script that changes the destination of an AI plane group once a specific flag is on but I cannot find the proper action/function for it. The main idea behind it is that once an F10 menu command is selected the previously spawned cargo plane would fly, land and eventually despawn at the selected airbase so that its cargo can be added in the warehouse of the airport. Due to the big amount of different cargoes and destinations it's too time-consuming to add 80 different groups that fly and have different destinations and cargo, so I was thinking that something like that would be easier to manage. Does anyone know how this can be accomplished? I am also accepting suggestions on how to do it differently.

When I don't have Track-IR booted up when I load in DCS, I am unable to move my camera at all when using Ground Forces with my mouse. Is there a fix for this or does anyone know why? I have no idea why this happens and I really want to fix this issue.

Does anyone have a layout for how the F15E should be binded using the Thrustmaster A10 Hotas? Any help would be great!

Hello, I am slowly starting to understand the way lua works within DCS, and I have a "simple" idea. I would like to get the Horizontal Acceleration value, and have it represented on a scale on the controls indicator. Like the SU27 acceleration meter, but continuous, so not 0, 1, 2 states Could someone with more experience explain where they would maybe start? I can learn how to do it, but I just need some guidance linking it all together. Thankyou -
I couldn't find the right topic to post this under, so sorry if this is the wrong one. I have had a refund request approved for the f-15e (in store credit) and support have passed the request to a manager (this was at 0:900 GMT Friday) How long will it be until the credit reaches my account? thanks in advance.

So recently from the new update my F-16 has not been able to detect my track ir or hotas and throttle. But all my other modules can. I cant look around or do anything. Does anyone have a solution? -
I have spent a multitude of hours researching how I can try to edit the avionics and flight model of the CJS Super Hornet. Alas, I have had little to no success. I’m at a loss right now, and I would really appreciate some help. I know little to nothing about coding or computers, so this is all very confusing to me. From all my research, I found that the player flight model for the hornet (also used by the CJS Super Hornet) is a professional flight model. This PFM is a .DLL file and is encrypted. I heard the avionics are also encrypted (probably also in a DLL file [i never found it so I wouldn’t know]). Can someone help? I got DCS for my 15th birthday in July, and I found the Super Hornet a while ago. I just really want to make the flight model more like a Super Hornet. If someone knows how to edit these DLL files(idk if that’s legal. Is it?) please teach me. Or maybe if someone knows how, you could edit it for me I suppose? Maybe a developer could help me, someone with knowledge and authorization? Please, I just really want this. I know the Hornet and Super Hornet are really similar, but I love the little details. I love small changes that make each aircraft different, even if it’s two variants of the same aircraft. I love dogfighting, and I’ve heard of the AoA and slow speed performance of the Super Hornet being even better than the Legacy Hornet. I’d love to experience that. I don’t intend to sell or pirate the DLL files or anything. I know they took years of research and development, and I deeply revere that dedication. I would never steal that work. I’m not trying to pay anyone for this, and I don’t expect someone to help. I’m not entitled to help. However, I just wanted to reach out and see if I can find the right person who wants to help me. All I want is to fly the Super Hornet with my little brother and my friend. Please help, I’m out of ideas. Also, if anyone does help, here are the changes I would love to see: Decreased RCS to around 0.1-0.5 m2 (I think it’s in the .lua but I’ll put it in just to be safe) Increased radar detection range. (The AN/APG-73 did 60nm, but the AN/APG-79 does 80nm; I can detect a plane sooner than Legacy Hornet can) More consistent Radar STT lock (DCS Legacy Hornet loses STT lock a lot; appears to almost be intermittent at times) Increased thrust (to emulate increased subsonic acceleration) Better AoA performance (Legacy Hornet flew at max 35o AoA; Super Hornet allegedly has higher max AoA; 20% better seems like a good estimate) Increased lift (Better slow speed characteristics; more control at low speeds; 20% better seems good) Increased pitch rate (Nose pitches up or down quicker and with more control; maybe 7o faster) Increased survivable G load (requires higher G-force to break wings off airframe) (If I over-explained, I’m sorry. I just don’t know if I used the right aviation terms and want to make sure I’m understood properly)

I bought a Leap Motion hand tracking device, and tried it out in DCS VR. The experience was not very great. Even though the tracking works fine in the Leap Motion App, my hands are all kinds of crooked in VR. My Fingers do weird stuff in DCS, even though they show up correctly in Leap Motion. And even worse is the pointing in DCS. The cursor doesn't go where your finger points, it is very awkwardly positioned, I had to twist my hand way left, and way down, so the cursor went somewhat in the right position. It seems to point from the middle of your hand, not the finger, which is very annoying. And it wiggles around so much, it is almost impossible to hit buttons precisely. Additionally, my hands disappear regularly in VR, without moving them. I have to move around my hands to get them to be tracked again. All of these Problems are non-existent in the Leap Motion Control Panel I also tried the "Fingers" app, that is supposed to emulate a mouse cursor by pointing your finger, but it also tracks your whole hand, not your finger, so I have to move my hand around in a very awkward manner to point where I want. I tried different tracking modes in leap motion, desktop, screen mounted and headset mounted, but nothing seems to improve the tracking. I am very disappointed with the implementation of Leap Motion in DCS. The Leap Motion Tracking itself is very good, but in DCS it is very very bad. Which is a shame, since finger pointing in DCS would be VERY beneficial for VR.

Hi, Total noob to modding DCS (not texturing) and I have this problem where I go an retexture a missile it (and make required .luas etc to make it work) it overrides existing textures ingame for the missile (I know the livery approach but the texture resets to it's original one after release so theres that). The question is: is there a way to make a skin, for example for the AIM-120C that only loads on one plane?

Hello everyone, DCS is non stop crashing on me. Sometimes one thing works, then it crashes again after getting it going. then the fix won't work. Search for hours on forums and you tube videos and sometimes find another solution that works once or twice. One of the last crashes, I noticed, that I changed resolution to my projector and the game crashed. Changed the resolution back and the game work for a little bit. I have played with that resolution setting for hours before and had no issue. If its not one thing is another with DCS. I tried numerous things including reinstalling DCS, Windows (back and forth between 10 and 11), Drivers. I have set my page file, run as administrator, set DCS app to high performance in windows and nvidia control panel. Spent more time probably trying to fix DCS and get it working then flying at this point. This game is so awesome and I love flying, but its getting close to wanting to give up on DCS altogether. The these crashes are on start up, never while playing. It never gets past the LOGO on startup. Doesn't go black, just Logo pops up and then after 5 - 20 secs crash advisory window pops up. I know DCS is a delicate game and seems numerous people have so many of the same problems while others no problems at all. I'm not sure if its the same issue or a different one at this point but can someone take a look at these crash files and let me know if anything sticks out to them or something I should try. info on my pc: RTX4090, AMD Ryzen 5950x, 64gb of ram, ROG Crosshair VIII Formula MOBO, 1200watt PSU, 5 virpil hotas and panel devices (powered by USB hub), Winwing MIP( consisting of 4 devices and 3 MFD screens. Powered through USB HUB). TrackIR w/pro clip. DCS open beta (i had numerous crashes when on stable too) Thanks everyone, Cheers. dcs.20230214-225913.crash dcs.20230214-225913.log dcs.20230214-230130.crash dcs.20230214-230130.log dcs.20230216-041045.crash dcs.20230216-041045.log dcs.20230216-041741.crash dcs.20230216-041741.log

I'm trying to move on to more advanced trigger options and settings, and I'm working on using the "PLAYERS UNIT ARGUMENT IN RANGE" trigger. Could someone point me too where I could get more information on using the arguments and parameters for triggers? And, maybe where I could find the file within my DCS install, that would have the numeric value, for the aircraft I want to associate the triggers with?

Hi all, I'm new to the forums so please forgive any errors on my part, out of the blue I've started to have sudden and constant frame drops, game hitches, and freezes and I really don't know what to do about it. The performance issues occur in all of my modules on all of the maps in and out of multiplayer. My specs: 16 gb ram RTX 2070 graphics cardx Intel i7-9700 @3 GHz My game was running fine until it wasn't pretty much. I have a log file for a session that triggered to make an account to get help (see attached). All the best, Captin Pelley dcs.log -

H, so I have been playing DCS for about 2 years now, and I recently started having an issue, where when I go into the mission editor and select the aircraft option on the left side of the menu, all that shows up on the right side is the waypoint options, with a big whiteish-blue box on top. (Pictures Below.) If someone has had this issue before and knows how to fix it, please let me know. P.S. I have made several missions before this, and it has worked fine, this is only a recent issue. Also, even if I place down the aircraft, it doesn't change. Helicopter and tank menus both work:
