Capt Zeen Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) Hello all ! This week i was playing around width the posibilities of a MI-8 helios profile, and i reach at this point : Using the FC interface i manage to export everything from DCS to Helios... Switches, lamps, instruments! and for the first time i manage to syncronice everything ! In other words, if you click in the cockpit, Helios syncronice their switch and viceversa. The same features you get width the ka50 or a10C interfaces. I show you the three panels i am working at the moment...Everything is working and syncronized. Hope you like ! Ah, yes, i know, i need to finish the su27 one ! main Pilot panel Running a lamp test in the cockpit Starting engines from upper panel . . . UPDATED: New screenshots below! .. . . .

Lobinjaevel Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Awesome! Thanks for this and all your other profiles, will definitely start flying the Mi-8 more when you release this. You have made my DCS experience that much better with your profiles!

Will you be syncing the F15? Hello Sobe. They were not implemented (WCP and RWR) when i did the profiles. I just made the holes to put external tool behind it. Right now, and after working on the su27 , i got all the information i need to do the WCP very easy. The RWR is another thing, I got all the data to create it, ( like de beryoza) but the representation is something i cant do in Helios, so is needed another tool to create it. I know some people work on it, some time ago, but dont know if they finish it. In my plans are redo all the old profiles width the new implementations, but need to finish somethings before.

Capt Zeen Posted September 13, 2015 Author Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) Hello all I little update on the MI-8 progress, Version 0.7: Everything you see here is working!, instruments, lights, switches etc, syncronized in boths sides, from helios and from the cockpit. All the panels are compacted so you can arrange later the position of each one, to adapt to diferent monitor configurations. Hope you like it : . . . .

zehir Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 is it possible to use Helios during multiplayer gaming? do you know any server that allow it?

vicx Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 I love Helios layouts even though I don't use them anymore. I want to take all the helios panels of the Mi-8 and turn them into a big poster I can print and put on the wall. Someone did that for A-10 and it looked amazing.
sollymans Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 These look brilliant, just started flying the mi8 and can't wait until these are ready. I use your profiles for the ka50 and they make a massive difference. Thank you.
Capt Zeen Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Well ! almost finished, only need to solve how to implement the UV26 digits. New Screenshots Capt_Zeen_HELIOS PROFILES_WEBSITE Capt_Zeen_Youtube Channel

molevitch Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Hi all, I am rather new to DCS and I fly mainly the Mi-8. Thank you for your work Capt Zeen. If I understand well, HELIOS is an utility that allows the display of 2 cockpit views at the same time. Hi Simicro, Helios is an app developed by Gadroc to port instruments, buttons switches etc from the clickable cockpit in DCS to a separate screen or screens, enabling you to have a fixed view of cockpit instruments. With a touch sensitive screen, the switches become switchable by touch. Its great! With a multi-screen set up, you can surround yourself with the relevant cockpit panels. Combined with headtracker like Trackir and a Hotas system, it starts to get very immersive.... Yours Molevitch SCAN Intel Core i9 10850K "Comet Lake", 32GB DDR4, 10GB NVIDIA RTX 3080, HP Reverb G2.

BravoYankee4 Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Great work! Now I'm almost about to buy this chopper just because of this profile :) Any plans for a MIG-21 profile? That would be awesome to have side by side with my DCS-BIOS setup.

Capt Zeen Posted September 30, 2015 Author Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) Yes! i got version 1.0 of the profile ! Everything is working, all switches, instruments and lamps (Thanks to [FSF]Ian for the help in UV26 digits and MyG for his help in the breakers switches) Now the question: Make sense wait a couple of days and implement all the new features promissed in the new beta 1.5, before publishing? I got all the art and mechanics ready, only need the data from the new switches and instruments. Edited September 30, 2015 by Capt Zeen Capt_Zeen_HELIOS PROFILES_WEBSITE Capt_Zeen_Youtube Channel
sobe Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Capt Z Are you waiting until DCS 1.5 to update the F15 and finish your SU-27 profile? I am curios as to whether 1.5 (or even 2.0) will break Helios now that Gadroc is no longer updating Helios. If so, that is going to be a major pain. Thanks for all of your work to date.

molevitch Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Hey Capt Z, Fantastic work on the MI-8 Helios Profile. It has revolutionised my enjoyment of this already good Heli sim. Now I have great controls of the weapons and everything else. Just brilliant! Thanks and keep up the good work!
