hawk2495 Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Alirght, this is going to be fun I think. I've got 3 Cougar MFDs. They all work fine in every plane but the A-10C. My third MFD is greyed out like the other two because of the default bindings. I was wondering if anyone knows a way that I can clear it from the default so I can bind it to something else. Why is the rum always gone!?!?!?!
hawk2495 Posted August 25, 2019 Author Posted August 25, 2019 Alrighty. Well, as soon as I posted this I had an idea and it worked. So.... I guess I don't need this thread anymore.. lol If a mod could please delete. Why is the rum always gone!?!?!?!

Ala12Rv-Tundra Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 What was the fix? I think you have to manually delete the MFD 1 and MFD 2 default files on the core installation (not Saved Games...).

=Panther= Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 Another method is to grab the latest drivers, and tell the mfd that it is the third one. Without the latest drivers, the limit was only two mfds. I did a quick video demonstrating this a few months back.

Though deleting the defaults for 1 and 2 just opened up a bunch of possibilities too. This way I won't have to do it again for anything else though. Cheers! Why is the rum always gone!?!?!?!
=Panther= Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 By deleting the defaults, doesn't really fix the underlying issue. The third MFD is showing as MFD2 instead of MFD3 in windows controller page. So the computer thinks you have two MFD2 and one MFD1. Not an issue with DCS, since we can map around it with the unique IDs.
