Frost Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) Since there is stil no mission cartridge-system*** is there at least some kind of workaround, third party tool, or a way to manipulate the aircraft files directly, so I could save an aircraft in a very specific avionics state and with customized display and weapons profiles? ***(neither a more indepth one for individual modules nor a more generalized one for all modules. For example as part of the editor) PS: Imho, such an option through the regular GUI would elevate the entire sim much more than "just another aircraft". It could be as immersive as a virtual data cartridge system, or as basic (but still very functional) as being able to save a mission at any point, especially after the aircraft is perfectly configured. I mean something that even decades old flight sims already managed. Or is there actually a way to save a mission/flight at any given time and I just missed it? I'm still quite new to the DCS world.

Yes, at least for some things. I have my own countermeasure profiles, MFD configs, and IFFCC settings saved. They're buried in the lua files. I don't know about weapon profiles, I know the HMCS settings can't be done, which would be nice.

Sure, the countermeasure lua can be found \Mods\aircraft\A-10C_2\Cockpit\Scripts\AN_ALE40V\device\AN_ALE40V_params.lua IFFCC is in DCS \Mods\aircraft\A-10C_2\Cockpit\Scripts\IFFCC\SETTINGS.lua MFCDs are in \Mods\aircraft\A-10C_2\Cockpit\Scripts\MFCD\device\MFCD_left(right)_param.lua I tried to do other things like defaultTGP settings but was never able to make it work, now that we have the A-10C II upgrade, the TGP laser mode is latched by default which mostly makes that a moot point for me.
