An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.
astiles5470 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Excellent, thank's a lot towsim. We are on time to use the new version tomorrow night for a Korean campaign that we are flying this summer. Enjoy your vacation

Vespa Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Towsim, great work with Ariesradio. I just got in trouble with a weird issue...I've succesfully installed the tool, activated the plugin in TS3, I start DCS and I see the pop up panel with frequencies....but when I try to exit from the mission....DCS crashes. The issue happens just in the DCS World...all works fine in DCS World Openbeta. I tried to reinstall the tool several times...checked the Export.lua file in both open beta and normal installation....I wasn't able to figure out what's the issue. Any idea? Thanks
Vespa Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Update: downloaded and installed new 1.940 version....In the TS3 activation plugin I got the message: Export.lua could not be located! Export.lua file is in the same folder of the previous Aries version... Thanks for any help
towsim Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) @ Vespa At the begin of the installation procedure, a dialog opens to specify the important folder paths for DCS World and Open Beta. If your SavedGames path is not standard, then you can change that in the dialog. You can check the path after the installation in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AriesWings\DCSsavedGames and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AriesWings\DCSsavedGamesOB If the paths in the registry do not match the real paths, you may change the registry data to the real values. If you open the registry, please use the programC:\Windows\SysWOW64\regedit.exe. There are differences between the 32 Bit Registry and the 64 Bit Registry. Please let me know, if you could solve the problem. Edit: You should even check the plugin version number in TS3. It should be V1.940. You can find it in TS3 menu/Settings/Plugins.

Vespa Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Thanks a lot for your reply towsim. About DCS crashes: I have fixed cleaning the Windows Registry. Don't know exactly what happened. About the update to 1.940: - Ts report the correct plugin version as you can see from the pic below. - the TS Aries plugin menu show the Eavesdropper in grey, I cannot select it...is it correct? - I still get the Export.lua error. "Export.lua could not be located". Of course Export.lua is in the correct folder...I can find it and open it with my Sublime Txt2 editor. ( I usually wrote code in Lua when I was the Project Director of TargetTobruk sim) Thanks again for your support and tool
Esac_mirmidon Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Vespa, did you have a clean export.lua? I´ve deleted previous export lines like Tacview or Tars from my export line ( the quick manual suggested it ) and 0 problems. " You must think in russian.."

towsim Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 @Vespa The message ' Export.lua could not be located!' is generated at the moment, when the dialog function tries to locate the Export.lua with the help of the registry entry. The following errors could initiate the message: Export.lua path not found in the registry The attempt to open Export.lua as file (wrong path or file does not exist) File size is zero (empty file) No sufficient memory (very unlikely) The more important question is, does DCS find Export.lua, means, do you see the Aries Radio Panel coming up during a simulation session? If yes, then the TS3 plugin DLL seems to have a problem with access rights. In the latter case, only the function to enable and disable the Aries Radio Mod is impacted. All others should work normal. The Eavesdropper is available only, if you are connected to a TS server. The Radio Communication Quality dialog is available only during a running simulation session. If the folder still exists where you unzipped the installation package, you should find the file AirbornRadioInstaller_log.html please, send this file together with C:\Program Files\TeamSpeak 3 Client\plugins\AriesRadio\ AriesRadioLog_log.html to support@ariescon.com.

Vespa Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) Thanks again for feedback and efforts. I removed completely the tool: - uninstalled Aries - manually deleted Aries folder from DCS and DCS Open Beta - manualli deleted registry entry for Aries - cleaned registry with tool. After that I have reinstalled the tool, executin setup.exe as administrator (of course) Got the same trouble with lua file not found :( Weird is that installing Aries the dofile instruction is added to my Export.lua file. Here you are my Export.lua file content: -- Export file dofile("./AriesWings/AriesRadio.luac") I wrote the comment "-- Export file" just to avoid empty file. DCS find succesfully Export.lua file since the Aries radio panel pop up when in game. Said that it should be a TS dll permission issue...even if this is weird since I had no such issue using previous Aries version I'm going to send log file to the email you wrote above towsim. Edit: towsim, I have no AriesRadioLog_log.html file into TS plugin folder Edited August 10, 2014 by Vespa
towsim Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 @Vespa: You find the the file in: C:\Program Files\TeamSpeak 3 Client\plugins\AriesRadio\ AriesRadioLog_log.html BTW, I inspected your installer log. It seems to be all ok... Pleas check your e-mails. I sent you a special DLL for error inspection. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Vespa Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Thanks towsim, got the verbose dll, installed and started TS. Got the same error with no log file....but...if I start TS as Admin I got the plugin working fine and log file is created ( I sent it to you by email) It seems to be weird....I didn't ever started TS as admin previously and got no issues. I can fix just setting TS to run as admin every start.....
towsim Posted August 10, 2014 Author Posted August 10, 2014 Very nice. I will include the Admin thing in the installation guide. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
LowLee Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Thanks towsim for this release! ;) Fletto i muscoli...e sono nel vuoto [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Snoopy Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 The 476th vFG is looking at adopting Aries if our TeamSpeak host forces an update past what TARS currently is comparable with but noticed a few things while testing today. The following, although said to be implemented didn't appear to work. -Frequency interference caused by two transmitters -Terrain Masking -Voice encryption on demand in the A-10C via KY58. Lastly, thanks for the mod, we liked what we saw so far in our initial testing. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website
Gaanalma Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 THX for this release! 36° Stormo Virtuale adopt Aries! Veriy nice tools! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] www.36stormovirtuale.net
towsim Posted August 12, 2014 Author Posted August 12, 2014 @paulrkriii The frequency interference is audible only for a third listener. The two actors, who transmit at the same time have the receiver switched off (disconnected) as long as PTT is depressed. Nevertheless, we will test this, terrain masking and the KY58 again this night. I will keep you informed. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
chromium Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I can only say that with the past release previous 1.940, terrain masking and frequency interference was working, tested by us also with KA-50 (terrain masking and interference) and A-10C (interference). I can't test actual release before 26th August.

Snoopy Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Thanks towsim! We'll continue test and evaluate to see if it meets our needs and pass on any other things we find. And to make sure it's clear we only tested with the A-10C. I sent you a PM last night concerning the KY-58. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website
towsim Posted August 12, 2014 Author Posted August 12, 2014 (edited) Dear Aries user, regarding paulrkiii's test of frequency interference and terrain masking, I can confirm, that there was a bug. Unfortunately, I commented the functions out for test purposes. We repaired the bugs immediately and have a new DLL as download available at: http://www.ariescon.com/AriesRadio.zip The ZIP file contains ariesRadio.dll. it must be copied to C:\Program Files\TeamSpeak 3 Client\plugins and replaces the old DLL in that folder. Terrain masking and frequency interference now works as expected. The KY-58 basically works, but has some logic errors while evaluating the power switch. The repair of the switch logic takes a little more time. So a bug release with a working KY-58 can be expected next week. I am sorry for these troubles...

Esac_mirmidon Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Its in your plans to release a guide about how to use the KY-58 with the ARIES software? Or is enough with the A-10C manual?

As long as it uses the panel in the A-10C it's not complicated at all. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website
towsim Posted August 13, 2014 Author Posted August 13, 2014 The handling of the KY-58 is explained in DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\A-10C\Doc\DCS A-10C Flight Manual EN.pdf on page 145. It is not that complicated but confusing. If you try it out with some other players on frequency, you run into troubles with spoken explanations, because you are encrypted and not longer available to the others, if the configuration does not match. So it would be a good idea to use the Eavesdropper while acting as lecturer. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
