Countermeasures panel

[tom1502]

Hi all,

Is it possible to assign buttons to the countermeasures panel that is just in front of the collective? The panel where you can select whether flares come out of the left/right fast/slow/singly? I've got the collective controls sorted, but I would like to have the other panel assigned on my Warthog TMS.

Thanks,

 

Tom

Hi Tom,

 

Yes you can but you need to MOD a lua file, C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\SA342\Input\joystick\default.lua...

 

This should do it for you... any problems PM and I'll fire across a file..

 

{down = device_commands.Button_1,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 1.0, name = _('FLARES L'), category = _('MODDED')},
{down = device_commands.Button_1,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 0.0, name = _('FLARES BOTH'), category = _('MODDED')},
{down = device_commands.Button_1,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = -1.0, name = _('FLARES R'), category = _('MODDED')},

{down = device_commands.Button_3,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 1.0, name = _('FLARE SLOW'), category = _('MODDED')},
{down = device_commands.Button_3,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 0.0, name = _('FLARE FAST'), category = _('MODDED')},
{down = device_commands.Button_3,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = -1.0, name = _('FLARE OFF'), category = _('MODDED')},

{down = device_commands.Button_2,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 1.0, name = _('FLARE SEQ'), category = _('MODDED')},
{down = device_commands.Button_2,cockpit_device_id = devices.FD, value_down = 0.0, name = _('FLARE SINGLE'), category = _('MODDED')},

Thanks for that!

I'll be honest, I have no idea what I am doing with those files, but I can make a copy of it first just in case!
