Joe1978 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Perhaps it is a stupid question or it has already been formulated, but could someone please explain to me how the TCS works? I've read the manual but I think I'm doing something wrong: In most missions, the TCS doesn't seem to work and in the RIO seat, everything seems to be set up properly. I have even waited more than 5 minutes for the system to warm up, but still I do not get images. In the pilot's position, even when starting a mission with the plane already in the air, I almost always have a black screen and TV is NOT selected in the TID. I don't know what I can be doing wrong Asus Rog Strix Z390F, i9-9900K, 64GB Crucial DDR4/3300, RTX3080, NVMe M.2 980 Pro 1T x2, SSD Evo 860 1T x2, Seagate Barracuda 1T, Seagate Barracuda 6T, HP X32C, HP Reverb G1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise we have to work through this step by strep: Let's start at the beginning: Have you turned it on? If so how? Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

Joe1978 Posted June 2, 2023 Author Share Posted June 2, 2023 Thank you Tonight I will post a mission to see if we can find the bug. This is the procedure I use: 1º System on (IR/TV power switch ON) 2º I wait a few minutes (system heating) 3º TCS mode: Auto 4º SLAVE switch: TCS For missions already started, the controls are already configured like this. TID mode: Attack: my pilot should have video. TV: Only RIO should have video signal Asus Rog Strix Z390F, i9-9900K, 64GB Crucial DDR4/3300, RTX3080, NVMe M.2 980 Pro 1T x2, SSD Evo 860 1T x2, Seagate Barracuda 1T, Seagate Barracuda 6T, HP X32C, HP Reverb G1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TV has to be selected in front for the pilot to see. Was the problem in PG map? Try other map.

Lt_Jaeger Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 In current MT someime the TCS for the Pilot does not work , at least in VR that is. I did not found a pattern yet, but it is hit or miss if I get a TCS picture in the front seat. Most of the time it is there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I select (in the pilot seat) "TV" in the VDI but I have a black screen with green symbols. I forgot to mention that this problem is random.

PD919 Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) A quick workaround that has worked for me is that once I load into a mission, I test it. If it doesn't work I quit and press fly again in the mission recap. Edited June 4, 2023 by PD919 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diego999 Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 What has worked for me is to ask Jester to use TCS, then ask him to use the pod again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealius Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Is this map-specific? In Syria I have no issues with TCS nor LANTIRN, but in Caucasus it's always bent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
