A10 MFCD Helios Help Please


Kenpilot

Recommended Posts

I'm running Helios on a second monitor for the Main Instrument Panel. All of the instruments and gauges that I have in my profile are working great and displaying but for some reason the MFCDs are not displaying. Can someone help me determine why and or help me get them to display? Thank you!

In order to display the MFDs you will need to configure DCS viewports. In the past to accomplish this you needed to manually configure appropriate monitors.lua file. These days Helios can assist with the config even though it plays no part in generating the viewport. But you will need to manually select the generated lua file in dcs video configuration

Ok, how do I manually select the generated lua file in dcs video configuration?

Anyone else having problems to apply the Helios patches after installing 2.8? I can export the dials and numbers for the A10C II but I dont have MFDs, CDU, RWR nor clock.

Yup none of mine will install either. I reported on helios GitHub.. not sure if helios needs to update for 2.8 or if ed locking down the cockpit scripts so they fail IC in MP messed it all up

I unchecked every patch but my A10CII patches in the according section, it worked!
 

All viewports were exported correctly. Maybe you give it a try.

just ran through the cptnzeen discord and seems the issue is with a certain ka-50 patch.. i disabled all ka-50 patches and the rest of mine installed fine, a-10c2 , f16, f18, av8b, p51, huey

only need to disable- mods\aircraft\ka-50cockpit\scripts\device_init.lua everything else should install
