Show only purchased modules on DCS World home screen?

[cordite]

Is there a way to show only purchased modules on the DCS World home screen?

[Lixma 06]

Or.....at least shuffle the ones we own to the left.

[Mars Exulte]

I'd prefer to remove all those icons altogether, myself.

[gospadin]

Maybe two rows instead of one row?

[Roadrunner]

Open folder (default):

C:\Users\*username*\Saved Games\*your dcs version*\Config

 

Edit file: "pluginsEnabled.lua"

 

pluginsEnabled =

{

["A-10C Warthog by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["AJS37 Viggen by Heatblur Simulations"] = false,

["TF-51D Mustang by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["M-2000C by RAZBAM Sims"] = false,

["Su-25T by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["Hawk T.1A by VEAO Simulations"] = false,

["AJS37 Viggen by Leatherneck Simulations"] = false,

["MiG-21Bis by Magnitude 3 LLC"] = false,

["FW-190D9 Dora by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["Bf 109 K-4 by Eagle Dynamics"] = true,

["L-39C"] = false,

["Spitfire LF Mk. IX by Eagle Dynamics"] = true,

["Mi-8MTV2 Hip by Belsimtek"] = false,

["UH-1H Huey by Belsimtek"] = true,

["C-101 Aviojet"] = false,

["Combined Arms by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["F-86F Sabre by Belsimtek"] = false,

["Su-25A by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["F-15C"] = false,

["MiG-15bis by Belsimtek"] = false,

["SA342 Gazelle by Polychop-Simulations"] = false,

["Su-27 Flanker by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["Ka-50 Black Shark by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["F-5E by Belsimtek"] = true,

["P-51D Mustang by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["A-10A by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["MiG-21Bis by Leatherneck Simulations"] = false,

["Flaming Cliffs by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

["Su-33 Flanker by Eagle Dynamics"] = false,

} -- end of pluginsEnabled

 

Every entry that is set to "true" will be shown in DCS.

There will be new entries with time, like for the Harrier, Hornet etc., those must be added by hand if you dont have the module.

 

regards,

RR

it should exist, please upload a screenshot with your /saved games/dcs/ folder, to take a look.

+1 to removing them altogether. They serve 0 purpose

They look pretty  .. not that different from wanting prettier clouds.

I don't share that opinion. Just unnecessary clutter in my eyes 

 

But I'll stop raining on this threads parade now

Hello,

 

OK, we have a misunderstanding ... the person I was addressing had said "this directory does not exist on my version" .. so I understood that he didn't have a "Config" FOLDER.  What you mean is that you don't have a "pluginsEnabled.lua" FILE .. and that's OK, as this file you have to create yourself. Here I'm attaching my version of this file .. edit it so that each line is "true" for only those aircrafts you want to show up on DCS desktop.

 

Do not Add on this file other type of DLC, like Terrains, SuperCarrier or WW2 Assets, or DCS may not work properly. Also, don't add the free aircrafts: Su-25T nor the TF-51.

 

Best regards,

 

Eduardo

pluginsEnabled.lua

[Lange_666]

I don't think that's correct there Rudel.

I have a pluginsEnabled.lua in both DCS Stable and OB and i didn't create them myself.

More... in this file i have entries for SuperCarrier, all my Terrains, the free aircraft and even non-native DCS plugins as TacView, VIACOM Pro etc...

Works just fine

Hello,

 

Do this test: Rename your /Saved Games/dcs.openbeta to say openbeta.bak ... start DCS, it will re-create the /saved games/dcs.openbeta/ folder ... take a look at /Config/ ... you will see that there is no PluginsEnabled.lua

 

Most likely you got that pluginsEnabled.lua from the Forum and placed it there, but don't remember it now

Best regards,

 

Eduardo

[Lange_666]

I take your word for granted but...

No i didn't. In fact, it's through this topic that i now know it exists. I honestly have no clue how it got there. Both my stable and OB versions have one (different ones even, they are not the same) and i'm only testing on the OB version, maybe immaculate conception?

The only other explanation I can think of, is that older versions of DCS did create this file, while newer ones do not.

So it means impossible to move the terrain out of DCS home menu?

[Rudel_chw]

not impossible, but if you set it to false then the terrain is disabled and cant be used on the sim.

So after the last update my folder structure seems similar to your screen shot now, the file you posted does indeed work after I edited it and dropped it in. Thank you

I came across this thread when I was trying to figure out how to cleanup the module icons.

 

It appeared there was no way to get full control of them so I got a bit stubborn and spent some time digging through the lua files.

 

Found a way if you don't mind editing a file:
