EMC Doesnt Work With New DCS - Other Options?

[Sharpe_95]

Hey all,

I was forced to do a clean install of DCS recently. However, when I came to use trusty EMC by Iceman I found that doesn't work either. I have not seen anything to suggest that Iceman is aware/attempting to fix his software and I am left running helios with no 'view ports' (correct term?).

 

My questions:

1) Does anyone know if there is any likelihood of EMC getting updated some time soon?

2) Is there a fix?

3) Is there a workaround? [bearing in mind that I know basically nothing of LUA scripting/code and getting the 'viewports' into the right place on my profile lua script is about the extent of my ability in this area (hence using EMC).]

 

:helpsmilie:

 

Many thanks,

-Sharpe

Hi Sharpe_95,

 

If you want you can try my files (attached). They have been made manually using this method, http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=70716. The easiest way to do so is by using JGSME (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=98607). Unpack the attached .rar files and plase the entire HMA viewport folder into your JGSME mod folder. Then you can substitute the original files with my and it is reversible.

I am not rendering in the 3D cockpit, when using viewports

 

Cheers

Hans

Goes to show the level of stupidity we are dealing with he - I am sorry PeterP but I just don't understand your very comprehensive and well written manual (I told you I was stupid with Lua etc) :doh:

 

I am (or should I say 'was') able to position the view ports (indeed I have a script ready to go that I saved before I reinstalled DCS). My issue is I cant get the view ports to 'appear' or get them 'active' so to speak. Once I can get this done, I can simply reuse my old Lua script detailing the exact locations for each viewport (I was running HELIOS with Cpt. Luz's set up). So I just need to do what EMC used to do - ie 'install' the view ports in order to make them come onto my second screen and do 'what they have been told to do' in my lua file.

 

Sigh - sorry for being so utterly useless.

More :helpsmilie: please

This pre-sets will switch on the export of avionics to dedicated view-ports - just by simple copy'n'paste.

And will remove any conflicts between A10C and Ka-50

I love you PeterP and want to have your babies :thumbup:

 

Please accept payment in the form of my house/wallet/wife/child (take your pick). All I would ask is visitation rights (to my PC in my house, the wife you can keep!).

 

Many thanks, rep inbound,
