Vulpes Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Hi Capt. Zeen, I found a couple little things that I´m not sure about if they work correctly: - the airspeed indicator in your profile shows a different speed than the one in the cockpit (profile is about 10% too high) - I can't see the little triangle (at 0°) in the radio compass indicator. And: is there a possibility to increase the refresh rate of all the displays in Helios? Or is just my computer too slow? It's of course playable but the indicators do not move as smoothly as in the game cockpit. I am still amazed at your profile. I would still be interested in a Swiss-German keyboard version...:smilewink: Thanks for your hard work and your support. Vulpes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizzy Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Hi Vulpes, PC has a lot to do with it.... I used to run it on a i7 Laptop 2.5Mhz and it was not too bad with just a slight lag but on a my current high spec PC all is very, very smooth with no lag nor ASI difference...

Vulpes Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Hi Gizzy, Not the answer I was hoping for... :smilewink: But thank you. I'll start saving up for a new computer then. Vulpes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Patricio Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Is there a way to cut and paste individual instruments from this profile to fit on a smaller display? I'm using an 8" Liliput and while I can get the profile to work, it's too small to be much use at that size. I can highlight and copy the relevant instruments (VVI, etc.) in the profile editor to a new profile with no problem, but once copied they no longer register the data from the sim. I'm clearly missing a step somewhere but the couple videos I watched haven't helped me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Zeen Posted July 7, 2016 Author Share Posted July 7, 2016 The best way to do it is to copy the complete profile using the windows explorer, then open this new profile and delete all the things you dont need, and rescale the things you need. In that way you dont miss any code. Is there a way to cut and paste individual instruments from this profile to fit on a smaller display?

San Patricio Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Thanks for the advice and the awesome profiles. The problem I keep running into is that I am using two smaller 8" monitors. I can load the profile onto one of them and everything works fine with resizing, etc. But when I try to copy any instruments over to the second smaller panel, no data registers from the sim in game. I apologize for what is likely a silly question, but I've read the Helios manual now and watched several videos but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. It was my understanding that highlighting an instrument, copying it, and then pasting it into another monitor on the same profile should work.

Helios dont copy everything to other location, sometimes, Usually if the target is another monitor, or the hierarchy is not the same. Sometimes i fixed this changing some lines in notepad++ Send me the profile after your reset monitors, i can take a look and see what happens.

Nism0 Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Hi Capt Zeen, I seem to be having a weird problem that I am unsure how to fix. 1. I followed your instructions for installation to the letter. 2. I run helios and the profile appears where i expect it, and the gauges mirror those in the dcs. 3. My controls are not responding in the sim. No response at all from anything. Not even the keyboard. 4. I restart the sim and check control assignments for "UH-1H Sim", and it is completely blank. Not just the assigned keys, but the actual assignments are missing. Just and empty list appears. All other aircraft still have all their assignments, except the "UH1H Sim" Any ideas or advice on how to fix the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you by any chance using a modified joystick input file, such as 'Joystick - HOTAS Warthog.lua'? If so, be advised there was an update to the DCS input files as of 8/23/16. If you are using a modified one dated before that, you'll have to redo your modifications with the current file to solve the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt Zeen Posted September 28, 2016 Author Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) Hello all! I remade the keyboard default.lua for the UH-1H Helios profile. Looks like BST changed it on one of the lasts updates. Please use this new one, ready for the last version of DCS http://www.captzeen.com/helios/archives/Uh-1H_default.rar Thanks to Nism0 for the feedback ...

Capt Zeen Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 Hi I'm sorry to keep at this but I must be missing something. but I believe I am placing the default.lua in correct place but something is not right. Please help thx Lee If everything is in the correct place, and the problem persist, try runnig Helios in Administrator mode. If you are using windows10, the UAC can block the outputs from Helios to DCS, too. To be sure, everything is correctly installed, open helios in administrator mode, then open notepad with an empty document, and mantain focus on it. When you click on the buttons or switches, you can see some letters appears on the notepad document. Thats mean Helios is sending the keyboard command correctly. If DCS dont get the keyboards from Helios, probably is because the UAC, try to low a level of security and try again.

DeJohn Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Dental1 1. Do you use JSGME or OvGME? If not you should be! The reason is... anytime you use a modified or changed game file, when DCS updates it will see your file as being the wrong file and replace it with the original correct file. Thus the need for using a (Generic Mod Enabler), so you can unload your mods before you allow DCS to update and replace them afterwards. 2. Capt Zeen's default.lua file belongs in the Uh-1 input keyboard folder. When you look at the Eagle Dynamics\DCS\Mods\aircraft\Uh-1\Input folder you'll see 3 folders... 1... UH-1H (sim mode) 2... UH-1H easy (game mode) 3... UH-1H Gunner (as the name implies) In each one of those folders has a 'Keyboard' folder. You place the default.lua file in the folder that you fly... ie if you place it in 'sim mode' but fly 'game mode' it won't work.
