I am trying to get my old Touchbuddy FC2 profile to work with FC3. But it seems things have changed as to how you setup DCS World to allow export.

 

First, are the Official DCS LUA instructions correct anymore, or are they out of date??

 

There is no "..\config\export\export.lua file anymore...

And I cannot find a the "..\config\export\config.lua" and ensure that the "EnableExportScript = true" to turn on export.lau.

 

Trying to figure this out myself, I am getting confused.

It appears now that DCS World also uses "C:\Users\XXX\Saved Games\DCS" for some files? The only config.lua files that I see are now in:

..DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\A-10C\Cockpit\Scripts\config.lua

..DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\Ka-50\Cockpit\Scripts\config.lua

..DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\Uh-1H\Cockpit\Scripts\config.lua

 

 

Any help on how to setup DCS World export for FC3 is greatly appriciated. :doh::doh::doh:

 

Thanks,

Snacko

Thanks for the reply. My problem is that the Export.lua file is never getting called at all. The only thing that I have installed is TARS, and I am wondering if that is causing my problems. My next step is to uninstall TARS.

 

At this point I am simply trying to get the Export.lua file in my Saved Games/DCS/Scripts to get called. I have tried many things. I have this script at the top of the Export.lua file to write out a test file just to show if Export.lua is just getting called, but so far it has not ever run.

 

--TEST TOUCHBUDDY OUTPUT --
local myfile = io.open("./TOUCHBUDDY_TEST.TXT", "w")
if myfile then
  io.output(myfile)
end
io.write(string.format("TOUCHBUDDY EXPORT IS WORKING\n"))
io.write(string.format("----------------------------\n\n"))
io.close
