Bailey Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) “In folklore, the witching hour or devil's hour is a time of night, typically between 12 and 4 am, that is associated with supernatural events, whereby witches, demons and ghosts are thought to appear and be at their most powerful.” – Wikipedia Download here - https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3315428/ Hello and welcome to DCS-Update Witching Utility. DCS-UwU provides several functions that will prepare your DCS install for a DCS update. Many people swear by these practices. Many do not use them at all. Both with various results. That is why I find the name of the utility quite appropriate. This is not an “everyday” utility. It is meant to be used sparingly, only when you need it. Happy Witching!!! Note: This program has functions that deletes files. It has been tested on multiple systems to keep accidental occurrences to a minimum, aka, zero. If you are not willing to assume that risk or are not comfortable with that, do not use DCS-UwU! DCS-UwU before and after a witching a DCS update. Please read the Readme for more information.

Marroux Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Hello, I am discovering your work and I think you are the right person for my request. There are more and more ship mods available for DCS. It is possible (subject to having combined arms it seems to me) to interact in a restricted way with these ships (setting a route for example). Do you think it is possible to have an application to "take control" of ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svend_Dellepude Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Seems to be another useful tool @Bailey. Looking forward to trying it out! 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Win10 64, Asus Maximus VIII Formula, i5 6600K, Geforce 980 GTX Ti, 32 GB Ram, Samsung EVO SSD.

Sounds like a cool idea though, a remote battlefield commander of sorts. 1 DCS VoiceAttack Profiles | My Mods and Utilities on ED User Files | DiCE: DCS Integrated Countermeasure Editor DCS Update Witching Utility | DCS-ExportScripts for Stream Deck Community Github Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianL Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 8 hours ago, Bailey said: terrain clear is backwards compatible So I noticed that base.lua in Mods\terrains\{TerrianName}\misc\metacache contains a list of files that are in base directory. After cleaning and doing a free flight video, base.lua has a files list for files that do not exist anymore Should base.lua be cleaned as well?

If you can find or conduct some solid testing to confirm, it would help quite a lot. I could then integrate the findings into the utility.
