Pancake Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) This is a short explanation on how to install DCSW 1.2.7 with Helios and SIOC for home cockpits. Some of the folder structure have changed in 1.2.7 and thats why helios doesnt work. I will make a better tutorial later on with screenshots to make it more new user friendly. I hope this help everyone who is upgrading his homecockpit to 1.2.7 I will apreciate some feedback about this short tutorial so I can white a better one with pictures and so. :) **************************************************************************** This is a short explanation on how to install DCSW 1.2.7 with Helios and SIOC for home cockpits. I will make a better tutorial later on with screenshots to make it more "new user friendly" Let't beging with a new fresh install of DCSW 1.2.7 1) Create " C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Config\Export " Folder 2) In this new folder: copy "Export.Lua" located at " C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\scripts " copy "OAKES FILES" copy "Gadroc SIOC integration script" 3) Open HELIOS. Under "3rd Party Scripts" paste this line ---> "./Config/Export/SIOCExport.lua" 4) Install DCS A10C inteface via the "SETUP DCS A-10C" button pointing to this path " C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Config\Export " 5) Create " C:\Users\Administrador\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts" Folder 6) Copy everthing inside " C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Config\Export" to " C:\Users\Administrador\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts" Folder By now HELIOS should be working with DCSW. 7) Open SIOC, import your config file and save it to "C:\Program Files (x86)\IOCards\SIOC" Check your EDIT.INI ( it shoud point to your sioc config file) Copy SiocConfig.lua to " C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Config\Export\SioCConfig " ****************************************************************************OAKES Export_0_93_beta.zipGADROC SUPPORT SiocExport.lua.zip Edited May 17, 2014 by Pancake :joystick:Cockpit Project ---> http://imageshack.us/g/805/43072310150728796824899.jpg/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevos758 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I don't run helios at the moment but step 6? Is there something missing there? Facebook Ripp's Garage Tech LLC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AggressorBLUE Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 While I appreciate the effort, I'm still really confused here. And yes, step 6 doesn't make sense. I also think something is missing from Step 2. Where are we supposed to copy those to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pancake Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 Step 6 was wrong. I edited it. :joystick:Cockpit Project ---> http://imageshack.us/g/805/43072310150728796824899.jpg/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnepethomas Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Thanks for this, didn't know Helios already had integration with SOIC, learn something new everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradaz Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I am struggling to get Helios working with physical toggle switches. I have my commands configured, what do I need to do with regards lua files to have the physical switches working in-game? Is it a similar process creating the export folder and copying existing files across? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pancake Posted July 4, 2014 Author Share Posted July 4, 2014 I use SIOC to drive my phisical switches so I dont know how to doit on HELIOS. :joystick:Cockpit Project ---> http://imageshack.us/g/805/43072310150728796824899.jpg/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P1KW Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Well, I'm going to take a chance, I took more than a year with the card in a drawer ... With this I can start from scratch with the 1.28? Greetings!

oscarfg Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Hi. I'm trying to get working the Opencockpits MCP with DCS World, so I guess I don't need anything related with HELIOS. Anyway, I'm not able to make it working on DCS World 1.2.10 following the mentioned steps (I tried it without HELIOS steps and with them), but no way. The point is that I got it working with DCS A10C standalone, using only the OAKES files and changing the specific files, but I can't make it works on DCS World. There is a thing that I don't understand. Following HELIOS step number 3 and 4, when I press the "Setup DCS A-10C" button, I notice that the folder c:\Users\MyUser\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\ is automatically created with an Export.lua file inside it. Then the step 6 indicates to copy everything on folder C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Config\Export to folder c:\Users\MyUser\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\. I understand that this will overwrite the Export.lua file created from HELIOS. Does it make sense? Am I missing anything? I'm really stuck on it Thanks in advance and regards.
