Ray, thanks for the video.

 

How can you press OSDB 19 in the Ikaus cockpit, if you have deleted all?

 

I did not understand that yet.

Ray,

 

How can you press OSB19 in the Ikaus cockpit, if you have deleted all?

 

I did not understand that yet.

 

I was surprise too. that were a bleu lined squere where was the deleted botton.

and of cousre I was not able to do anything because it was not supposed to be theire

iF It it hapen again, I will try to get pictures or video.

 

tha bad pars is that I thing it make DCS freese then DCS crached.

 

I remove MFCD from export script too now. It may never happen again.

We shall see

[raymondabel]

I love Ikarus, but on the A-10 profile I get "Stuck MFCD Keys" flags every time use it. Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions for how to fix it?

 

 

Look that I am not the only one....

 

I Have F16MFCD so I deleted all the ikarus OSD* from a-10c.ikarus. the same with a-10c.xml and I just did witt DCS-script, a-10c.LUA.

 

now, I am testing.

so far, looking good

Ray

I saw in DCS.log that you use F16 MFCDs. With the next crash also the export.log would be important. Otherwise nothing remarkable was to be seen.

Ray, that has nothing to do with Ikarus or the export - scripts. You are using your F16 frame now. But it's nice to see it happen with it. There is a way to change those behaviors. Unfortunately you have to change the clickabledata.lua of the A-10C.

 

 

-- Left MFCDI

elements["PNT-BTN-MFD-L-01"] = {class = {class_type.BTN}, hint = _("OSB 1"), device = devices.MFCD_LEFT, action = {device_commands.Button_1}, stop_action = {device_commands.Button_1}, arg = {300}, arg_value = {1.0}, arg_lim = {{0.0, 1.0}}, use_release_message = {true} }

.....

 

Change true to false for all MFCD - buttons.

 

 

Or just press the clamping button a second time.

because pressing all keys, clicking everywhere did not change anything

 

BTW: I am impress bu you knowlegde og the DCS confif files

Thanks Ray.

 

 

The button with the pink square is the one that is stuck.

[raymondabel]

Thanks Ray.

 

 

The button with the pink square is the one that is stuck.

 

I figure that out. Maybe I should upload the video but with the lua modify, I should not have the situation again

[McMicha]

@raymondabel

please do a test without the exportscript and check if the keys still get stuck!

no stuck key so far but Ikarus does not work anymore

[H-J-P]

That is interesting. Ray, are you sure?

 

Of course, Ikarus is not working anymore. This is normal with this configuration. Maybe McMicha has an idea what it's all about. He develops the lua - scripts.

I have a dumb question, but is it possible that my Ikarus profile is messing with my controller input. Since I got Ikarus working, the F18C has so much rise, that countering it with full down will not level the plane. If its possible its causing this, what can I do to fix? Any help would be much appreciated.

[H-J-P]

There are no dumb questions. Only stupid answers. Ikarus does not normally affect your controllers. Unless you are using the wrong DCS - IDs somewhere. You created your own Ikarus profile?

[raymondabel]

DCS crash again tonight during a MP game.

I reboot with my old helios setting. No crash.

 

I do not know what is the problem.

Thing for sure, if I let the OSB* then I get stuck MFCD key. I F I delete them then I got DCS to crash.

 

I am avalable if you wanna do some more testing but I thing that I am not going to plys MP with Ikarus again. To bad because it is very hard work but I feel the profile would have to be revisited and this is something that I do not have the knowledge to help the SDA team. I am just à gamer.

I just see that you work on it (Version 1.4.5.3s)

I will give it an othe chance.

What should I test?

 

feel free to contact me directly

 

Edit: stuck key steel an issue. Next step: deleting the OSB*

testing Ikarus-master V1.4.5.3s

 

My modifications:

- OSB* are deleted from a-10c.ikarus

- moving cokpot switch and panal to fit beween my F16 MFCD (that should have absolutly no i,pact on ikarus behavior)

 

Results:

- no crash so far in solo.

- here is my logs. You will see that theire is some exeption on ikarus .log.txt

- ILS and TACAN : Work a lot better !

 

NOTE: external light switch could be removed because (like OSB*) it does not work with HOTAS

Right MFCD stuck key

OSDB 19

then DCS crached

Hello raymondabel

 

I've tried and tested a lot around.

Also I get it that a key is stuck and the corresponding message appears, but I have to hold the key down for several seconds.

But I can make it common again by clicking on it a few times.

 

But I never crashed DCS, so that must have another reason.

I also have no problems pressing the MFCD button over a DirectX button (in my case a jostick button).

 

You also don't have to delete anything in the A-10C.xml or A-10C.lua file, it's enough to delete the buttons from the Ikarus profile.

 

In your posted log files you don't see any error that could lead to a crash of DCS, you actually don't see any error (except in the one Ikarus log).

 

 

 

I honestly don't know what's different about you that you have such problems.

Maybe it's TacView.

 

I myself have never run the ExportScript together with TacView.

 

 

Maybe I can test that....

allo

first: thanks to spend some time trying to understand the issues I am facing.

 

here is my script rep.

You will see that I use Universal Radio that is mandatory to play with my clan.

Tachview is not mandatory but no one in my clan has the issues that I have trying to use Ikarus.

 

Also: I wrote "crash" I should have wrote : Freeze" and have to "alt-ctrl-delete" to kill DCS process. That may explain why theire is no error in my logs.

 

As far as OSD* are concern. I simply deleted those as well as the external light switch.

 

Last thing: I put my old Helio profile (using OvGME is easiy to switch Ikarus to Helios and Helio to Ikarus) and no issue with Helios

BUT running with Helios is like driving my old Honda Civic whan I have a brand new car just beside it

 

One again, thanks for your time

@Ray, so you know what makes sense, the following information:

 

The *.Ikarus is only responsible for the layout and the parameters to be sent.

 

The *.xml file contains all the DCS IDs we have defined there. You can then use it in the *.Ikarus file.

 

If you do not want to use something, delete it in the *.Ikarus file or in Ikarus itself.

 

It will not be used anymore. It will not be sent anymore. The data that comes then from DCS, have no effect. They are simply discarded.

 

 

Thanks for your support.

so deleting an object in *Ikarus has NO impact because the object will not be call by anything and will not call anything.

Right?

I made it today, DCS is frozen ... Interesting ... I'm not here to say what I think ... (****)
