JIGGAwest Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 7 hours ago, Gremlin17 said: anyone got any tips on how to use this with the harrier, specifically with entering target waypoints for JDAMs? Thanks. The harrier already has a F10 markpoint system that imports to your CAS page. So, TheWay wouldn't help you much here. Also the process for JDAMs With TheWay you would have to import waypoints and convert to target points.
tmansteve Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Thanks for that Taipan. Had a problem the other day when showing my brother how to use it. After we landed, we started it up but we had no Green Circle on map. Will try again later Cheers
tmansteve Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) Got it going, stupid mistake, forgot to press the cross to start adding. Would like to know if the waypoints are added to your last waypoint or can you select your last waypoint before transferring. Cheers Edited May 2, 2023 by tmansteve 1
Gremlin17 Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Thanks for your reply. @JIGGAwest I know how to use the F10 and CAS imports, but i was just wondering if the Way had an easier way of doing it. Cheers.
TheoreticalApex Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Any plans to support the UH-60 Black Hawk mod? I don't know if it is even possible or not but with how much CSAR and CTLD flying the 60 does, I know it would be incredible to have The Way implemented. 1
Clifton19 Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 Hi. I have added the additional line to the Export.lua of my Saved Games folder, but when I run DCS, TheWay says no connection to DCS. Have I done something wrong? Thank you.
Leonski Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 Well it did work for a short time because after update in DCS the isnt working. what happend McDonnell Douglas ✮ F-15C Eagle ✮ // USAF 2012 // Raytheon Trophy HD
Willie Nelson Posted May 13, 2023 Posted May 13, 2023 This mod is awesome for VR, thanks heaps! I was able to get it drop in waypoint while setting up my mission and then close the app and launch. Great stuff. If I could be so bold however as to ask would a future version be capable of populating the Hornet Stores Pre Planned waypoints pages? From what I can determine this is Nat an option at this stage… i7700k OC to 4.8GHz with Noctua NH-U14S (fan) with AORUS RTX2080ti 11GB Waterforce. 32GDDR, Warthog HOTAS and Saitek rudders. HP Reverb.
Willie Nelson Posted May 13, 2023 Posted May 13, 2023 I have two versions of DCS instaled, one for VR Multi-thread and one for VR single thread. When I first opened V2 of the Way I used the ST version in VR and all was well. I observe that when I now try to use the MT version that I although the way shows that I am connected to DCS FA18 Hornet in the top LHS of the app, I cannot use the CTRL+SHIFT+S to save a wayoint in this branch of DCS, it is now only working in the ST version. Do I need to set it up on both independetly and if so, how? i7700k OC to 4.8GHz with Noctua NH-U14S (fan) with AORUS RTX2080ti 11GB Waterforce. 32GDDR, Warthog HOTAS and Saitek rudders. HP Reverb.
RogueRunner Posted May 14, 2023 Posted May 14, 2023 Very useful app but it does not display the cursor on the F10 map on Quest 2 VR headset. The cursor is visible on the 2D display. Everything else seems to work though, just no way to get the correct coordinates in the Q2. With the price of ammunition these days do not expect a warning shot.
bigtruck Posted May 15, 2023 Posted May 15, 2023 Is there a way to remove the confirm prompt for the F18 when transferring a waypoint ? ... it renders the whole idea of the VR shortcut useless since it forces you to remove your headset to go back in the GUI to click "confirm". (for every waypoint !) The whole idea of the shortcuts was be able to use Theway in VR without remove the headset, right ?
Guldendrak Posted May 21, 2023 Posted May 21, 2023 Great great mod. Any hope to get it work for Mirage F1EE ? ^^
MrReynolds Posted May 21, 2023 Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) Disregard. Seems to be fine now Always used this mod - essential. Has the latest Apache update broken the script? I can't get the original, or the new one working. Was fine for the FA18 yesterday....... Thanks for any feedback Edited May 21, 2023 by MrReynolds

Sorry if I’m being dense. So, to properly upgrade you must remove the old TheWay.lua file from your Scripts folder. Then paste in the new one for V2, and use the new installer exe for it.

RogueRunner Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) another request, for VR after you use the S+C+T to transfer the current WP into the jet, can the app delete the list automatically? MY experience last night was I flew around, used C+S+S to save the point, using the scractpad hack ofcourse since the circle is not visible in the Quest 2, and transfered it to the F16. Then later added another target but if created the whole list again in the INS computer. EDIT Scratch that, I see there is a C+S+D to delete everything Edited May 22, 2023 by RogueRunner With the price of ammunition these days do not expect a warning shot.

ejzg Posted May 31, 2023 Posted May 31, 2023 Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Sorry for my English. null
Leonski Posted May 31, 2023 Posted May 31, 2023 Well I reinstalled dcs and the way and still no luck! I have also helios working. McDonnell Douglas ✮ F-15C Eagle ✮ // USAF 2012 // Raytheon Trophy HD
flyingscotsman Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 Hi Comrade Doge, Looks like a great tool I am getting cannot connect to DCS. Sure I'm doing something stupid...usually best to assume operator error. So I have main DCS Beta on my E:\Drive. I have put the The Way lua in C:\Users\mygamename\SavedGames\DCS Open Beta\Scripts. I installed the new V2 version, I may have put the 'add this bit to the Lua file' in the wrong place, Its at the very bottom - See attached 7zip files I ran DCS world Beta, and then tabbed the screen to open The Way, the window appears, but says, cannot connect to DCS world I opened a Nevada map with an Apache and could set up waypoints on the DCS mission editor map, but could not get The Way to respond. Feel free to slap me for being daft, no rush either, I'm a patient ex mil guy THANK YOU TheWay.7z Export.7z
Sprool Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 Brilliant tool - big thanks! Works so easily in the F-16. Struggling wiht the F-18 Jdams (J82) to get it to work properly. Is there a step-by-step tutorial somewhere on how to use in the Hornet? I cannot get the bombs to ready for release? I'm sure its pilot error as I've not flown n the Hornet for ages. I can get the co-ord data transferred over correctly and get the Jdams on countdown to ready but the pp1 mission remains crossed out. I have jdams set to pp mode, instant fuse. I checked the data was in precise and correct co-ord mode selected before data transfer.
