Hi boffins,

I have used DCS UFC faultlessly for about a year, but im currently having an issue where the only way to run and have button functionality is be disabling the Public Firewall.

I have created inbound and outbound rule for the ports the app is connected to, and tried TCP and UDP but it still doesn't work.

outbound port is 5160

inbound port 25070

Can anyone assist?

 

Thanks in advance

For some reason TCP worked not UDP

I just got this today and it is really amazing (I fly the Hornet).

I had a little issue on android the app would freeze but once I power cycled it, it just came up and i configured the IP and it worked as indicated after following the steps.

Really great work, if anyone else is in doubt I highly recommend it!

Hi,

Happy to see some news : 

 

Is someone can confirm the AH-64D is not available yet on the new version? I updated the app and the script, but no Appache.

Thanks.

Hi, I bought it yesterday. New version with AH-64 - I have it

 

Do you plan to add a fully working MFD (with functional displays) in the future?

Still no AH-64D! What wrong again so?

No, the previous version of DCS UFC and the modules supported in it will have the same capabilities and will continue to be supported. Only new and subsequent modules will be added in DCS UFC X

Hi,

I have some questions about the AH-64D :

1) Concerning cursor & TEDAC : if I press and release the cursor controller or the MAN TRK, the cursor/TEDAC move as planned. If I press, move and release, the ciursor/TEDAC does not stop to move (visually, the controller is stuck in position). Is it itended or a bug?

2) Any chance to have the abbreviations for each button & controller of the TEDAC?

Thanks,

Vincent

Hi,
I purchased the DCS UFC app yesterday and today I found out about this new DCS UFC X app, can I upgrade my app somehow without purchasing the modules again that was present in the older version?

Hello ! The "old" app will still be updated. So with UFC X you just need to buy the modules not included in the other one, if you want. No need to buy it 2 times.

I agree that sort of "migration" of "old" app to the new one would be easier, to have a single app only.

Any chance to invert the UP & DOWN function of the MAN TRK (RH TEDAC Grip)? It is not suppose to act like a joystick if I am not making a mistake.

Once again, thank you for this app.

I have been using the Original DCS UFC App for a few years now.

Recently purchased the F-4E and OH-58D Panels for the new DCS UFC X app. I am very happy with the new additions and the way @pet333r created the app so that new modules can be updated and purchased for DCS UFC X as needed.

New KEEBOARD Panel is very handy and fun to play with: The Info included in the DCS UFC X Menu "requires the DCS KneeboardX application located in the script folder"

• To be more specific it is located in:  \Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts\pw-dev_script\Utilities\DCS_KneeboardX.exe
•  When you set up the Kneeboard Config correctly for DCS World Saved Games and Installation path everything just works.

@pet333r thanks for doing such a good job of documenting the details within the app.

Is there a guide to use kneeboard x ?  What is this option used for? TO display kneeboard on tablet? 

 

Is there a option to have flacon DED displayed over ICP in portrait mode?

After reading through some of the older posts. The MFDs do not display data, just act as the buttons to press.

Does anyone know if Helios will work along side DCS UFC?

Plan would be one screen for DCS UFC. Then two other touch screens using helios for the left and right MFDS.

YES helios works fine beside UFC

I have just been made aware of this app and it looks very interesting.

I fly the Ch47 and Apache a lot. For the Ch47 I would keen to use it to have a better view of the VSI MFD.

Is anyone able to confirm if this is possible please before I buy an Android tablet and the applicable apps.

In the main menu in the application, in the upper left corner you have a side menu button with additional information about the configuration of the Kneeboard panel

DED is displayed in portrait mode together with ICP

On the A10C CDU display, the lettering is of different sizes resulting in lack of alignment with the CDU LSK's and there appears to be a flickering of the data entry field in time with the cursor flash.

Is anyone able to help me, as this really is quite annoying when using the CDU?

Hi, I did purchase (in the past) dcsnav and dcs ufc apps.

Now if I understood correctly, the F-16/F-18/F-14 (and so on) in both DCS UFC and DCS UFCX are the same...so is that correct that I don't need to buy it again?But I just need to buy new ones if I want to use modules not in DCS-UFC?
Which is the difference between the 2 apps? (other than the kneeboard and the new modules)

Also are more features planned for the kneeboard? For example, the ability to write on it (with the tablet pen) or to load also from mission/theater or custom folders similar to what is possible with open kneeboard?
That would be very important for me.

With the previous version you also have access to all modules in it, so there is no need to buy them again. Only new modules will be added in DCS UFC X.

As for the Kneeboard panel, it's a pretty good idea what you wrote, worth checking out.

Thanks for your reply.
About the kneeboard part, an openkneeboard equivalent for android/ios tablets would be really handy and useful

Great...that's really cool, I really look forward to it.
Any plan to implement also other functionalities to the kneeboard part?Like custom kneeboards (from custom folders or from the device) and kneeboards from mission/theater?
Thanks
