Cowboy10uk Posted Friday at 06:51 PM Posted Friday at 06:51 PM Mmmmm not sure what I’ve done wrong here. I can get output on my pfp7, I can interact with DCS a treat. The issue I’m having is the mcdudcsbiosbridge keeps shutting down with zero error messages. if I restart it, things start working again, but then it closes down again. any ideas?

Note that i changes the .Exe name to WWCdu instaed of MCdu . i will update the Readme accordingly. Edited 23 hours ago by Cerppo

I had the same issue until I realised I had bound the MCDU MENU key; this key shuts down the bridging app.

I will certainly remove this default behavior it's useless. Edit : Removed in 1.5 and later. Edited Saturday at 05:25 PM by Cerppo 1

I’ll unbind and see if that works. thanks. 7 hours ago, Cerppo said: Thanks for pointing this out. I will certainly remove this default behavior it's useless. Edit : Removed in 1.5 and later.

dahui Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago I have the same issue, that the Applicatiuon closes after a few seconds. Where do i check if the MENU Key is binded or not? In DCS?

In DCS? Install latest, as it is in the code of the version you are using. ( the menu handler was not removed after aircraft selection in older versions ) Latest removed this behavior ( and the menu handler is disabled after aircraft is selected ) By the way , i'm just about to release a new version to get rid off console and command line options. This should be easier for new users. (forces dcsbios config before start , etc .. )
dahui Posted 14 hours ago Posted 14 hours ago Did now twice, exactly according to the readme's. It seems that i am to stupid. Ill wait for the New Version
Cerppo Posted 14 hours ago Posted 14 hours ago Just released https://github.com/landre-cerp/WWCduDcsBiosBridge/releases if it crashes or do not start it's not related to the menu key, you should have something misconfigured.
dahui Posted 13 hours ago Posted 13 hours ago (edited) Got it so far, that the Progam Starts and the MCDU shows the available Modules When i press "CH-47 PLT)" The following Message appears on the BIOS Program I have the Buttons assigned EDIT: When i Press for example AH64, it shows "Bridge Started successfully" Edited 13 hours ago by dahui

Ill wait for you have the wrong dcs bios version , it's written in the README , you need to DL the latest build , not the 0.8.4 nightly build required for CH-47F here too For CH-47F: Download nightly build (or later than 0.8.4) Edited 13 hours ago by Cerppo
dahui Posted 13 hours ago Posted 13 hours ago ffs, i was shure i downloaded the last version, but maybe during troubleshooting, i messed up. Thanks a lot for your help! 1
Cerppo Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago Just in case someone is also having issue when the ch47f Linked lighting is ticked The Dim / Brt are doing nothing in the aircraft -> should change the screen brightness , but do not work. So, i provided a way to dim the physical CDU by linking it to the Key backlight information - if you check the CH47F linked ... Everything is controlled by the cdu knobs . You start the aircraft , fine, then the program receives the position of the knob -> 0 by default . This set all brightness level to 0 ! Just turn the knob and it should react. if you want it to behave like in DCS , leave the CH47 checkbox unticked. And i you don't want light management at all, tick the Global option that says that
Cowboy10uk Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago Fabulous work as ever. Will get it downloaded and tested on my machine tomorrow. Now the big question is how much do I need to bribe you, to look at getting this on the C130 when she finally lands. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Fighter pilots make movies, Attack pilots make history, Helicopter pilots make heros. :pilotfly: Corsair 570x Crystal Case, Intel 8700K O/clocked to 4.8ghz, 32GB Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4 3200 MHZ Ram, 2 x 1TB M2 drives, 2 x 4TB Hard Drives, Nvidia EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW, Maximus x Hero MB, H150i Cooler, 6 x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans And a bloody awful Pilot :doh:

I had no doubt about that. Anyone who goes to the trouble of not only purchasing winwing mcdus and PFPs must have a love of heavy metal and logistics. The Herc is right down our street.
