I am using VR. Finding this button in VR is no easier than from the monitor. If a real pilot easily switches the toggle switch with his left hand just by touch, without turning his head, then I first need to take my hands off the joystick, then feel for the mouse with my hand, then turn my head in search of a tiny toggle switch with my eyes, shuffle the mouse to see its mark on the screen, then take aim and hit that tumbler!!! Yes, during this time the enemy will have time to stick my nose into the ground several times! I think that this toggle switch is extremely necessary to add as a command so that it can be assigned to both the keyboard and the joystick!

VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) Some switches really need to be bind to a key or a button. For instance, during cold starting the F/A-18C, the pilot has to push a button located on the right back of the cockpit at the same time hitting the BIT button on the FCS page to start the BIT. It is rare I know, but some time, in the heat of combat, it would be great if some buttons can be accessed from the throttle and stick, oh, that's why we now have HOTAS IRL.

kdc Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 On 2/6/2022 at 1:02 PM, sa63114200 said: Absolutely correct. This may be the preferred way of doing it. Thanks. So there are two ways of doing it, as you have seen by reply from grishik. However, there are pros and cons to each method. If you do not have a whole lot of modules that require change such as this, and your intended module is stable enough that you don't have to come back and re-add the line after module update, then this simple edit is to way to go. But, if you do, then updating one db_countries.lua file in one location may be preferred. To give you an example, Iranian tankers are 747 and 707, which do not exist in DCS. So I use KC-135 AI instead. Instead of editing the DCS AI config after each release, I add another line to the db_countries.lua file. Of course because I have a bunch of other assets that I need to make such a modification, instead of modifying ten files in ten different locations (which I need to keep track of), I have written a simple script that will copy my master db_countries.lua file with all the necessary lines for me. All I do after a DCS release is to click on a shortcut on the desktop and I am good until the next release. Many thanks for the reply, I will check it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The both entries on the Controls setting page are switched. You can also test it with the keyboard keys, it's the same. I posted the issue already on their discord channel. Not only Landing Gear Up and Down are inverted, but also ANIMATIONS of Radar On and Off, and Rudder Left and Right are having the same problem. Hope they will be fixed in the next update . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archer_111 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Many thanks to the Codename Flanker team for their hard works on this excellent mod ! Is there any future plan to upgrade Su-30's radar so that it can simultaneously lock on 2 separated targets and then launch and guide 2 R-77/77M missiles towards them, just as what TWS 2 mode does in MiG-29S in DCS? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latware Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) hi all, I found how to crank on engines more-less reliably: turn your head to have a view on both engine MFD and starting buttons, freeze the view, then hold button for particular engine until it has 10-11 % of nominal and then start clicking the button approx. 3x a second, engine will "catch up" and starts to increase the RPM, when it is above 13 %, you can start the next one Edited February 14, 2022 by latware 1 greetings latware (Intel Core i7-4790K;NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970;2xdisplay 1920x1080;Thrustmaster HOTAS Cougar+pedals;TrackIR3 6DOF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antonisrho1 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Hello, First of all thanks for the mod, really appreciate your effort to enhancing the DCS experience for all of us - keep up the good work A couple of issues/bugs I found that might help the developers (2 have been previously reported but I can confirm them) - this is the SM model - haven't tried them on the rest. - Bindings for gear up and gear down don't work - only the gear up/down - Axis set for breaks (left right or both) doesn't work - only button assignment for both wheel breaks. - Autopilot bindings missing from controller setup (however someone already published an updated lua file for key/joystick default setup which includes autopilot) - No key binding options for engine shutdown Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order for pylons 11 and 12 to be displayed again on the MASD page, you need to change the selected line in the attached file, as shown in the screenshot(ready modified file is attached). I wish you all successful flights and victories!)))
