TARS Installation Issue

[funkster]

Hi All

 

I originally purchased the pre DCSW version of Warthog A10 and have since retuned and updated to DCS world, however I seem to be having some difficulties with installation of 3rd party mods.

 

After some initial problems and help from the community I now have Helios and all my view ports working fine in the new DCS world 1.2.7 version. :megalol:

 

I am now trying to get TARS installed and again I am hitting problems with forums / readme files stating installation paths I just don't have etc. Anyway I have installed TARS and linked it to my TS3 plugins etc however the problem is TARS will not see my DCS world installation? Tars keeps pointing to my saved games\dcs folder and installs but keeps stating "Game Not Found"???? If I try and repoint it to my main folder (program files\eagle dynamics\DCS world) I get a messaging saying path does not contain DCS user file.

 

HELP ????

Doesn't really seem to address my issue. I was looking for a more comprehensive installation guide for DCS world 1.2.7. Although the ones I've found including the manual installation in the actual TARS read me seem to reference different obsessions I.e A10 beta folders which I haven't got.

Under saved games\DCS do you have the folder Scripts and Export inside that folder?

Maybe not but that is the thread that the developer monitors.

Yeah I have my export.Lua for Helios in scripts folder. If I run the TARS install it adds the do file line TARS .Lua. however it still states game not found (installed) in green text in the TARS control panel. ?? It doesn't seem to see the a10 module as per manual images.

Could you do me a favour and post screen dumps of both the TARS control panel and saved games\DCS similar to my attachment. Sorry my Windows is a Danish version

Thanks Hans, sorry for delay (valentines day duty). Here you go...

 

 

edit: sorry for the quality I reduced the size to make it forum friendly. should do the trick though?

Ah I see :thumbup: Thanks Paul

this may help also and shows what I am getting when running (Radios Powered in DCS)

 

 

note: I have also just change TS3 to 64bit version.

Hmm just curious... You are pointing TARS to D:\backup\saved games\DCS. I would have expected the default location of the files to be C:\User\"your user name"\saved games\DCS.

 

You are certain that you are pointing towards the actual location of DCS saved game files and not just a backup have made. I am not sure that you can alter the location of the saved games\DCS during the installation of DCS World.

 

Just a suggestion.

no problem. that is the correct path. i have all my libraries (music, docs, profile etc )setup and pointed to a secondary drive which in turn backups up externally. (just to be safe). This is the right folder and works fit Helios, views etc).

[Hansolo]

Hmm then I guess I am fresh out of ideas. I have tried to recreate on my PC but couldn't get the same "game not installed" even though I tried to remove some of my files from saved games folder.

 

As I have no other suggestions, have you tried to uninstall TARS and do a complete re-install of it? I am sorry I can't be more helpful :(

 

Cheers

I put this in the other thread also:

I noticed one thing, you are not using version 3.0.12 of TeamSpeak. AFAIK that is the last version of TS that is compatible with TARS and direct input.
