All of the MPD buttons and knob DAY/NT/MONO don't have any animation after yesterdays patch. Especially in VR it's often useful to see which button is pressed because I have to do it blindly just by feel (I'm using Total Controls MPDs).

BRT and VID seemed to working correctly. Track file attached.

 

All of the buttons still work as they should, just the animation is missing.

I just tried it myself and all MPD buttons and knobs animate for me, in both crewstations. Please remove any mods and run a repair, see if that helps.

Did a cleanup and slow repair, but it didn't fix the problem. Buttons and knob animate only if I click them with my mouse, but any controller or keyboard binding doesn't make the animation happen.

I'm not seeing this issue happening for me either.

In a cold and dark aircraft, if I use my touchscreens running Helios to adjust the knobs they do animate in the cockpit to match.  And if I use my keyboard bindings to type something out on the KDU, I see the buttons being pressed in the cockpit accordingly.

At least I'm not the only one with this problem. Did you have any mods installed? I did have a couple and removed those (first deleted the folders, then DCS updater cleanup and then slow repair).

I'll try tomorrow with a cold aircraft if it makes any difference.

I only got the UH-60L Mod installed.

If I bind the button to the joystick, I have no animation for the buttons. ......No Mods......

Clean up and repair didn't resolve the bug with the animation MPD buttons. Also cold starts doesn't affect this. The animation of the JETT Button on the left console also don't work with hardware devices.

I did a full re-install (deleted everything DCS related from my computer and downloaded again), still same problem. So it's definitely a new problem after latest patch.

I also tried with several different graphics settings, did not affect the problem. Same issue on 2D and VR.

I replayed your track file and saw the knobs for brightness and video rotating as you manipulated them, but I did not see the WPN, or FCR buttons (etc.) on the MPDs being depressed when you were switching between pages.

What device do you have the MPD bezel buttons mapped to?

I use Total Controls MPDs, but I also tried a keyboard binding and joystick buttons for the bezel buttons with the same result, no animation.

I can verify there are multiple buttons and knobs that are no longer animating, but when bound to joystick. They animate when I click on them.

Checked today again.

For me it‘s the Total Controls AH-64 MPD‘s having the issue. MPD button and Day/ Night knob animations are not shown, but the button actions do work! The Bright and Vid knob animation is working!

Other animations (TM Trottle buttons and switches, Stream decks and Keyboard) work fine for me. I have KU unit, Fire Detection and Test panel, EUFD and some other functions running with Stream decks. They work fine.

Did you try to bind some of the MPD buttons eg. to keyboard or throttle? Because for me the animations did not work, no matter what hardware device I used for the MPD buttons.

Checked again.

animations do not work when I bind the mpd buttons to another device or keyboard. 
this is very strange.

The bright and vid knobs work because they are axis binds. The mpd buttons and the night/day knob are button bindings and do not work.

Can confirm that this IS an issue. Clicking on the buttons with the mouse works normally, animation present.

However, when the MPD buttons are bound to a device, no animation is displayed. Can the ED testers please reproduce this bug with the buttons assigned to a device.

Hello all. 

Thanks for your patience. I have reproduced the issue and reported it internally.

Please bear in mind that we're giving this a low priority as we have other higher tasks at hand.
