SkateZilla Posted February 8, 2022 Author Posted February 8, 2022 Quick Update: Re-coding is ongoing, as well as GUI Re-working, One decision I have finally made, after weeks of debating is anything 2.0 and Prior will be removed from the app (So 1.1.1.x, 1.2.x, and 2.0.x), What does this Mean?: -Removal of Alpha Branch functions (Alpha has been discontinued for a while)(Removal of Alpha Branch Install, Update Options, as well as Alpha Readouts). -Removal of DRM Launch for Starforce DRM (Starforce has been removed for a while). -Removal of the Old Training Modules (and the Tab) for FC3 Aircraft and related tabs (they have been replaced and non functioning since 2.5 was launched). -Likely removal of Hawk T1.A from Modules list. -App will still be able to detect 1.5/2.0 builds and launch, but modules from that era that have been discontinued will not be in the app. If you want to continue to use the App to maintain legacy builds, I recommend keeping the current version just to maintain legacy builds, but this version will not be updated w/ new modules. If by chance the new core and GUI have a lot of issues when released, I may do one more update to the legacy app. if there is enough demand, possibly maintain both. Also, another question I've been asked, Unofficial/Unlicensed modules. These are community modules, that are unlicensed by ED. I will not include a Module I don't have permission to include, and every module must meet the criteria of: -Module Must be Independent and Self contained, (ie Not borrowing DLLs, or EDMs from other modules) -Does not rely on another module to be purchased, (ie Using FC3 Avionics, requiring FC3 to be purchased, or Using Su-25T avionics) -Does not overwrite an existing module,(ie Replacing a module to use it's cockpit and Flight Model). -Must be actively supported. 4 2 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

greyeagle787 Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 Hey All, Don’t know whether this has been addressed yet but I’m considering a Mod, OpenXR, that will bypass SteamVR. So will just be using the WMRPortal for my G2. Will this affect using this utility?? Thanks
98abaile Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 I had an issue once where it would always still open Steam VR, but inexplicably it stopped and now it opens OXR every time. Haven't changed anything in the updater.
EcosseFlyer Posted March 31, 2022 Posted March 31, 2022 Just a quick question relating to the Utility. Is there functionality within the Utility to run DCS using certain graphic settings for VR and non VR at launch. I have 3 presets within the sim that ive got for "VR", "non VR" and "Screenshots". Im curious where in the utility i can set which of these graphic presets in sim to run before lauching DCS. I know there are "Presets" in the Utility but I`ve assumed that these refer to the Utility settings themselves(having specfici modules loading for example) and not in sim graphic settings? Is there a way to set the Utility to launch using my in sim settings? If its there im not seeing it so apologies. 1 Wookie My Rig: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D@~4.5GHz+ || MSI x470 Gaming Plus Max || MSI RTX 3070 SUPRIM || 32GB Corsair Vengance DDR4 RAM@3200 || 27" Quads || Win 10 Home || TM Warthog HOTAS || Logitech ProFlight Pedals || TrackHat Clip / Declan Camera || Rift S Modules: A-10C & A-10C II || KA-50 2 & 3 || FC3 || CA || UH-1H || AV-8B || L-39 || F-86F || F-5 II || Mi-8 || M-2000C || F/A-18 || SA-342 || Super Carrier || F-14A/B || AH-64D Maps: Caucasus || NTTR || Persian Gulf || Marianas || Syria

Is there functionality within the Utility to run DCS using certain graphic settings for VR and non VR at launch. I have 3 presets within the sim that ive got for "VR", "non VR" and "Screenshots". Im curious where in the utility i can set which of these graphic presets in sim to run before lauching DCS.

Lange_666 Posted March 31, 2022 Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) It's under the App Settings tab, open de app, launch DCS, just set a graphic setting to your liking, close DCS, set a name for the preset in the app and press apply. Continue in the same way for more presets, then when all is done, go home page and select one of your presets there, it should start DCS with that preset when launched from the app. Works nice!

skypickle Posted April 1, 2022 Posted April 1, 2022 I have two installations of DCS and this wonderful utility launches each properly. One is 'pure' and the other has changes in various lua files. However, I have also specified different saved games folder in the app settings for each. One DCS folder in the proper saved games location has many missions in its missions folder. The other DCS 'saved games' folder in the alternate location has an empty missions folder. When I launch the 'pure' client which is associated with the DCS 'saved games' folder in the alternate location ( with the empty missions folder), the game starts up with all of the missions from the proper folder with all the missions.Both presets have green squares in the status column. Then there is a button labeled 'Specify Custom User Profile folder'. Isnt that what the entries in the 'Saved Games Folder PAth' are? custom locations? When I specify a 'Custom User Profile folder', which slot/build does it refer to? 4930K @ 4.5, 32g ram, TitanPascal
