I have an options file with all the stuff the way I want it. In the updater I select preset "Default", then I import the settings from my configured lua. I then press save. With Default still selected I start DCS, and all my settings are way messed up, closing DCS I see the messed up settings populate the Default preset as well. The same thing happens when I select Preset 1 and change the settings in the updater manually too. This is so frustrating, I really want to be able to change between VR and Pancake easily. please attach the apps log files, so I can see what's up.

gizmo Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Hi All, Rather new to this software. Just downloaded it and tried to install the DCS to the GUI but unable to do so. Is there a step-by-step guide on how to install the Skatezilla GUI for DCS please. Any help is appreciated. Thank you If you want Peace, be prepared to fight for it ! :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jucky78 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Thanks, Skatezilla! This is a fantastic solution. Personally, I'm comfortable with the command line due to my experience in the DOS era, but I have many friends who find it incredibly daunting. I've already shared a link to this site on 457 Squadron's website with the caption, 'A must-have DCS app - making things so much easier!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oz555 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I have set a path for Simshaker to load with the sim in the custom app section. loads fine, however I need it to load in after DCS has initialised not before or it won't work. I see there is an option in the custom app section to set parameters for the app. Will this do what I need and if so what would I put in there? Asus Z790 PLUS WIFI D4, 13700K RTX 4090 FE, M2.

spikenet Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Thanks for the fantastic update, its tough to cope with change but the new version look promising! I'm having trouble with the presets, I want to have two presets setup, a VR one with all appropriate settings and a pancake one for using my screen and headtracker. I cant seem to figure out for to get those working/setup the GUI is a bit confusing and nothing seems to stick. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lange_666 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Don't use the presets editor, just select a preset you'll find on the on the home tab. Launch DCS, adjust your settings , quit DCS and the next time you use this preset it will load in those settings. You can then rename the preset to VR or Pancake. 1 1 Win11 Pro 64-bit, Ryzen 5800X3D, Corsair H115i, Gigabyte X570S UD, EVGA 3080Ti XC3 Ultra 12GB, 64 GB DDR4 G.Skill 3600.

SkateZilla Posted November 3, 2023 Author Share Posted November 3, 2023 You'll have partial functionality for steam, Launch Functions should still work, Adv. Launch Functions should mostly work. Anything dealing with the Updating, Repairing, Cleaning or Module Management will not work. as "DCS_Updater.exe" is not part of Steam Distribution. 1 Windows 10 Pro, Ryzen 2700X @ 4.6Ghz, 32GB DDR4-3200 GSkill (F4-3200C16D-16GTZR x2), ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate, XFX RX6800XT Merc 310 (RX-68XTALFD9) 3x ASUS VS248HP + Oculus HMD, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS + MFDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
