If I just want to use the stream deck as a button box, I don't need ExportScripts or the DCS interface for Stream Deck, or DCS BIOS correct?  

 

I would just need to 

1) Map any command I want to use on the stream deck to some keyboard command

2) Set up a button on the stream deck to send that command

 

Are there any exiting F-15E and A-10CII profiles out there that do not require ExportScripts or BIOS?  I'm not having much luck finding them.  I guess I would also need keyboard mappings for those profiles.

That's correct.

Thanks!  This is more work than I expected setting this thing up 🙂  But will be so handy once completed.

The StreamDeck is totally worth it.  Extremely versatile.  There are some excellent profiles on the DCS user uploads, as well. 

By the way, I've been using StreamDeck for quite some time and have yet to have an update mess up the ExportScripts profiles.

So what's most useful and or easiest, the 15 button or the 32 XL version?

I want to maybe use it for complicated start-up functions for WW2 prop-planes and Helicopters.

PS i noticed a lot of DCS user profiles are for the 32 button XL version. Are they maybe easy to convert for the 15 button Stream Deck?

I guess it depends on the aircraft and how many buttons you need. I have 2 XL's and use the DCS interface for Streamdeck. There are so many profiles made by the community so I simply use those with some minor modifications..I also use the XLs for MSFS (with AxisAndOhs), IL2BOS etc..

Personally I prefer the XL version. On the 15 button version you loose at least 2 buttons per page to go back and forth between pages leaving you with only 13 buttons (same goes for the XL off course but you still have 30 buttons per page to play with)

Converting is doable, but a faff. In hindsight I probably should have gone for the XL.

The issue with converting is that the Stream Deck software doesn't actually show the buttons outside of the 15 that are on the smaller model. I found that one can use the Lorby Editor in combination with the Stream Deck software, but it is not that convenient.

Well, i ordered one 32XL version ... curious now what it brings. Thankx all ..

ADDED: got a warthog set plus crosswinds pedals.

Now i am trying to get going for some ww2 planes. Spitfire, BF 109P51, p47, Dora and FW a8, and especially Mosquito

But also especially for some helicopters like the Huey, Gazelle, as i don't have a collector hardware stick .. any profiles i could look at?

ADDED 2: Got some tips, and the "DCS Input Command Injector by Quaggles" found here:

https://github.com/Quaggles/dcs-input-command-injector/releases/tag/1.0.11  seems the way ...

==============

ADDED 3: just gotl Streamdeck going for IL2 Great Battles, not tested DCS yet.

Very important find was NOT to run it as administrator, it screwed up Windows 10.

Hello, i have downloaded the P47D profile, but how do you import it into Streamdeck XL properly? It works as standalone profile

There is also some general DCS plugin, and i read somewhere that it must be imported there.
