Hi! I just wanted to share the experiment I started some time ago, to have a small app creating PNG images with the flightplan filled in, to use as kneeboard in VR. With some time, and the help and encouragement of my virtual squadron mates, and some users here, this has grown from a small experiment into something that is useful (at least, I hope so), so I thought it would be worth sharing. Currently, in version 1.5.0, the features are (quick summary, not updated in a long time, so some features could habe been missed in the re-cap): Mission importing from .miz file Selection between Blue/Red coalition Green/Red NVG filter applicable to all pages Export formats: individual PNG files, ZIP file with all PNG images, PDF file Possibility to select individual pages to export Standalone format (.5js) to save status/distribute the cards, and continue edition Option to add a startup delay to all waypoints TOS (for Cold start) and up to two station times (AAR, CAP, HOLD...) Mission Datacard Mission timing: check-in, taxi, takeoff (delays adjustable) Display of info from up to 5 flights (Package section): Callsign, Task, Tacan, Aircraft type, Frequency and TOT (manually filled) Departure/Recovery/Alternate airfield info: populated from flight plan, but editable. Name TCN, ILS, Freq (UHF/VHF selectable), Elevation and Runway heading (BRC if carrier) Weather data: QFE, temperature, Wind, cloud base, cloud ceiling Flight info: pilot name, tacan(manual edit), BORT number, laser code (manual edit) Joker and bingo calculation Waypoints: action/name, altitude, heading, distance, coordinates, TOS Right click a waypoint to send its coordinates to the notes1 tab Coordinates can be changed between DDMMSS.SS, DDMM.MMM and MGRS Grid Manually modify the TOS of any waypoint, with the option to re-calculate timing before that point Support package, for the comm card: AWACS Up to 3 tankers Up to 2 JTAC/AFAC Commcard Support of 2 radios with 20 preset channels Posibility to overwrite .miz file with presets Codewords: GV5Js standard, but possible to edit manually Pop-up calculator Left/Right action graphics with all parameters Notes Notes 1: text + image layout (option to send TGT Coordinates from Mission Datacard to Notes1, with mouse right click) Default image: AMSL authentication. Can be changed clicking on it Notes 2: Full page image Notes 3: 2 images layout Navcharts DCS and Combat Wombat's charts for Caucasus, Nevada, Persian Gulf and Syria Checklists F/A-18C checklists F-16 Cold Start and Mavericks A-10C Cold Start F-14 Pilot & RIO Cold Start Program notifies of updates available Initial installation file in provided link Updates through the app Coordination Card 1 or 2 CAP Patterns Option to include a TGT Area Flow graph, defining timing for each flight in the package Selection between PUSH/TOT or VUL time per each flight BVR Timeline for main A-A threats Added 2-panel layout option, to visualize 2 tabs (can be dragged) at the same time Download v1.8.6 PS: if you want to contribute to the development, there is a paypal button to accept a beer

Hello guys, I am “secretcode”, “Esparza”, “FalconMasters” (I have many aliases). And I am here to introduce you to: simtools.app simtools.app is a personal project I’ve been working for some time and that I made to solve the need I had for a way to make custom checklists for all the modules I fly in DCS. With simtools.app you can: Create checklists for all the modules in DCS Store checklists on the cloud Share checklists with others Open checklists in your phone Follow someone else’s checklists Download the checklists with customized sizes for DCS World Link: https://www.simtools.app/ To use the app you must register and verify your account, once you do that you will get access to all the features of the site. For the moment simtools is only composed of the checklist maker, but I have planed some more tools and features to the site. I hope this app is useful to you, If you want to learn more about the project, request a feature, report a bug or whatever you can join the discord: https://discord.gg/grXueh2Ddc See you!

KB Quick is an all-in-one app to quickly and easily create and edit kneeboards, organise them, associate them with aircraft, quickly select and publish them for specific training/mission requirements, and easily re-edit and re-publish them with a few clicks. I realise there are other excellent kneeboard utilities, I developed this one for my own training needs and have decided to share it here in the spirit of DCS forums. Please download from here : https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3315463/ Features All-in-one kneeboard creator/editor/manager/publisher Rich Text editor (one or two columned) Basic instant conversion to Night Operation versions Kneeboards are managed as .rtf files and can be quickly selected and re-edited Easy association of kneeboards with specific aircraft One-click selection publishes or removes kneeboard image to/from appropriate DCS kneeboard folder Snipping Tool-like, screen area capture directly into kneeboard page Import existing kneeboard images The program is easy to use but I would highly recommend that you give the pdf manual, included in the download, a once-over before you start for detailed usage and configuration information. It does NOT access any DCS World folders other than your saved games Kneeboard folders only when you choose to write kneeboard images. All of its kneeboard data and configuration files are stored in the “KBQuickFiles” folder, which it creates in your “Documents” folder. The software is and will always be free. All feedback is very welcome. Please report any bugs. *** Version 1.1 : Fixed minor bug in which the image of the message box which asks "Save changes before changing kneeboard?" gets captured into the kneeboard image. *** Version 1.2 – Improved app appearance for displays using >175% Windows Text and App scaling (typically 4K monitors and high-resolution laptops). Thanks to Backy 51 for assistance. Added Context menu Functions: Undo : Undo last editing action Colour | Choose Colour : pick any colour for selected text/insertion point Highlight Colour: Pick any colour to highlight selected text Background Colour : Pick any colour as kneeboard background Version 1.3 – Added unlimited undo/redo levels. Improved Snip! window edge visibility. Updated manual. Version 1.4 – Added basic table creation and editing Right-Click and “Insert Table” to create 2,3,4 or 5 column, single row table, sized to pane width. Tab past the last row cell to add a row Rows and columns can be resized by clicking and dragging their edges To delete a row, double click, just to the outside of row’s left or right-most cell to select the row, then cut. Updated user manual. No need to update previous version, simply run the program from the KBQuick 1.4 folder. When you're happy with it you should get rid of the old KBQuick folder if you have one

Radio KAOS for DCS is a utility which makes it possible to generate and listen to your own audio playlists, in mission, without breaking immersion, by using the aircraft cockpit radios. It’s intended as an occasional “add-on” to any DCS mission. It achieves this by leveraging the DCS feature which allows a mission to contain a radio transmitter which can be triggered to broadcast an audio file on a chosen frequency. Some will recognise this as an old trick, this app just makes it an easy one. Features: Create DCS compatible “Radio Playlist” audio files (.ogg format) from selections of your digital audio tracks. Your tracks can be spliced sequentially or randomly into a single radio playlist audio file. Playlist files can have different types of tuning/static or themed clips inserted between tracks for added immersion (If you’re a Huey driver, try the “Radio Nam” AFVN clips) Create “_KAOS” mission copies of any existing DCS missions which will each contain: Your selected radio playlist A powerful 10 kW Radio Transmitter set to broadcast your radio playlist at a selected frequency Two Comms Menu F10 commands to allow your coalition to start and stop the broadcast in mission Once created, launch the “_KAOS” mission in DCS, tune your cockpit radio, and use the provided comms menu F10 commands to start and stop the broadcast while in mission Quickly update any _KAOS mission with a new playlist with a click so it can be different for each flight Version 1.1 Bug Fix Fix bug preventing generation of radio transmission commands in F10 menu items on some complex missions for Multiplayer. To upgrade from 1.0 version simply replace your "Radio KAOS for DCS" folder with the one in the download NOTE that Radio KAOS will NOT change your original DCS mission file. It will create a copy named <mission name>_KAOS , placed in the same folder as the original. Tracklist & Playlist Generation Tab: - Use to build up track lists from your audio files and generate Radio Playlist audio files from them Manage and Export Radio KAOS Playlists Tab -Use to Generate “_KAOS” versions of your DCS missions with an inserted Radio Transmitter to broadcast your Radio Playlist files. I’ve made a more detailed user guide here : Radio KAOS for DCS User Guide.pdf Please have a read before installing Please download the app from the DCS User files section : Radio KAOS of DCS A few Notes: This app is intended as an occasional “add-on” to any DCS mission. Although I've tested that _KAOS missions can be successfully re-edited in the ME, If you regularly make changes to your mission in the ME, I would recommend that you use the original mission as gold copy, make changes to that, and then use Radio KAOS to regenerate a _KAOS version as required (it will overwrite a _KAOS version of the same name). Be aware that the generated radio playlist audio file is physically inserted into a mission so that mission’s file size is increased by the size of that file. A 60 minute playlist is approximately 60 MB. The 10 kW radio transmitter is inserted in the centre of the mission’s map and should be powerful enough to be available everywhere. Please bear in mind however that like any radio transmitter, it requires line of sight so reception will vary with terrain (as it should do). You may also experience a short delay between tuning your radio and starting to hear the broadcast. Multiplayer: I don’t frequent multiplayer servers but from what I’ve read on forums, a running radio transmission is only available to players who joined the mission BEFORE the transmission was started. Therefore, wait until all players are online and then use the F10 command to start the transmission (You can also always stop and restart the transmission at any time). If you’re a mission builder and prefer to insert your own radio transmission trigger action via the ME, you can still use this app to create and update playlist files in your missions. Please see the user guide for details.

“In folklore, the witching hour or devil's hour is a time of night, typically between 12 and 4 am, that is associated with supernatural events, whereby witches, demons and ghosts are thought to appear and be at their most powerful.” – Wikipedia Download here - https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3315428/ Hello and welcome to DCS-Update Witching Utility. DCS-UwU provides several functions that will prepare your DCS install for a DCS update. Many people swear by these practices. Many do not use them at all. Both with various results. That is why I find the name of the utility quite appropriate. This is not an “everyday” utility. It is meant to be used sparingly, only when you need it. Happy Witching!!! Note: This program has functions that deletes files. It has been tested on multiple systems to keep accidental occurrences to a minimum, aka, zero. If you are not willing to assume that risk or are not comfortable with that, do not use DCS-UwU! DCS-UwU before and after a witching a DCS update. Please read the Readme for more information. Thanks to all of those who make mods and dev for DCS. Thanks to Eagle Dynamics. Thanks to everyone who has spread the word about my mods and addons for DCS. Thanks to JCofDI for being the first to be Witched -Please join us in the Discord server: https://discord.gg/PbYgC5e -Please feel free to donate. All donations go back into DCS to create more free mods, just like this one: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/asherao -Check out my other Mods, Utilities, and VoiceAttack profiles here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/filter/user-is-asherao/apply/?PER_PAGE=100 -If you would like to contribute to the development of DCS-UwU, check out the code, or if you like spaghetti, the DCS-UwU Github is located here: https://github.com/asherao/DCS-Update-Witching-Utility Feel free to contact me on the ED forums (Bailey) or better yet on Discord (Bailey#6230).

Super Hornet inspired UFC Control app for the F\A-18C for DCS World. I've been working on this app for a while, since UFCs are difficult to build i decided to make this app and use it with a 8 inch fire HD tablet in my cockpit setup. I added some extra features like the ability to control some of the panels and i currently working on adding a Data Cartridge feature to input way points faster. I tested everything i could and everything seems to be working so far. I would really appreciate if you guys can report bugs back to me. I'm also open for suggestions on extra features to add, etc. For now the APP is only available for Android but I'm in the process of submitting the app to the Apple App Store. Let me Know what you think! Hope you guys Enjoy The APP! INSTRUCTIONS: Video Tutorial: Coming Soon 1- Get The App: Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.embarcadero.HornetUFCDCS iOS https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hornet-ufc-dcs/id1604694496#?platform=ipad 2- Download the lastest release of HornetUFCDCSAppServer from the GitHub Repository https://github.com/AlphaMikeSimulation/HornetUFCDCS/releases 3- Unzip The Content somewhere in your hard drive( Desktop Or C Drive For Example) 4- Copy the DCS-BIOS Folder yo your Scripts folder ( C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts) 5- Edit your export.lua file and add this to the end of the file: dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[Scripts\DCS-BIOS\BIOS.lua]]) 6- Open the HornetUFCDCSAppServer.exe and go to settings and inpiut the IP Address of the Tablet or Phone that you are using for the HORNET UFC DCS App 7- Click in Shutdown Server and Start the server again for the new IP to take effect 8- Open HORNET UFC DCS In your phone or tablet and go to settings, input the IP of the computer that you are using for running DCS World 9- Open DCS World and wait for HornetUFCDCSAppServer status to change status from DCS Not Running To Waiting for DCS... 10- Open any Mission and wait for the HornetUFCDCSAppServer status to change to Connected 11- Now you can control the UFC from your phone or tablet, ENJOY!

For anyone who does not know it, here's some info about the SVP-24: https://thaimilitaryandasianregion.blogspot.com/2017/08/additional-information-on-svp-24.html It's basically a Glonass based targeting system that automatically releases an unguided bomb by comparing the target and the aircraft relative positions, and according to: the aircraft motion, the bomb flight model, the enviromental data (wind, humidity etc). Somewhat of a CCRP on steroids. I was playing with the idea that such system could be emulated by an algorithm fed with telemetry data via Export.lua, some data relative to the weapon used, and the target coordinates. The app would first output a heading for the bombing run (or perhaps would it be possible to add waypoints via script to player controlled FC3 planes like the su-25/27/33 ? This whole thing would be meant to be used by those type of aircraft after all!), and eventually output the hotkeys for a weapon launch authorization override followed by a weapon release command at the right moment. I am aware this wouldn't be like a small effort (on top of the code, some tables for each type of bomb would need to be made and I guess the values could only be found empirically), plus an external app should be written in C/C++ (I guess), and that goes beyond my capacities. So I was wondering whether there is anyone around who's crazy enough to be interested in developing this.

Hi folks! I’d like to invite you (livery makers) to showcase your liveries on https://dcsworld.pro/liveries A modern, clean UI that shows off your content vs the outdated User Files experience. A “Netflix” for liveries (I know this example is a bit overused! But you’ll love it!) We just launched a day ago and are already off to a great start with a handful of prolific makers already posting their liveries daily. As content grows, we’ll be rolling out smart search features and more rich UI. How it works: Sign up and use the easy backend UI to input your liveries and upload your amazing livery photos. Note: we do not host the livery files (it would just be too expensive but also to not step on ED toes). When a user finds a livery they like, they click a “go to download” button that will take them to your User File page for that livery. Simple! Eg. https://dcsworld.pro/liveries/3332272 Bonus: we have a mobile-friendly UI. Our backend also includes basic stats on user activity. Unique meta card for each livery. SEO indexing. [EDIT] you can now register using this special registration link for livery makers: https://dcsworld.pro/register?register=maker note: if you are not a livery maker, don't register! no point! :D (yet!) Thanks! Magma
