Gargoyle1 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Hello all, This is a quick fix for the broken autopilot to the Mi-8 caused from updating to 1.2.10 PLEASE NOT I DID NOT MAKE THIS FIX! All credits go to FinnJ (I would suggest +rep'ing him for this) Here is his post ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// I have looked into the Mi-8 files and found how to fix it (since the dev´s seems a bit slow to respond). It took me less than 15 mins to find the culprit by comparing the files with some old ones I have in my DCS Open Beta install... Find this file: \DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\Mi-8MTV2\Cockpit\Scripts\device_init.lua Open it with Notepad (I prefer Notepad++ for Lua files) and then find this line (line:118 with Notepad++): creators[devices.AUTOPILOT] = { "Mi8::avAutopilot_Mi8", LockOn_Options.script_path.."Devices_specs/autopilot.lua", {{"ElecInterface",devices.ELEC_INTERFACE}, {"GMC", devices.GMK1A}, {"ADI", devices.AGB_3K_RIGHT}, {"LightSystem",devices.LIGHT_SYSTEM}}, LockOn_Options.script_path.."Devices_commands/AUTOPILOT_commands.lua"} And change it to read: creators[devices.AUTOPILOT] = { "Mi8::avAutopilot_Mi8", LockOn_Options.script_path.."Devices_specs/autopilot.lua", {{"ElecInterface",devices.ELEC_INTERFACE}, {"GMC", devices.GMK1A}, {"ADI", devices.AGB_3K_LEFT}, {"LightSystem",devices.LIGHT_SYSTEM}}, LockOn_Options.script_path.."Devices_commands/AUTOPILOT_commands.lua"} Now save the file (better make a backup before changing it). Voila - Pitch & Roll Channel works again !!

Airmage Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Maybe it is because of the last DCSW updates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flagrum Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Maybe it is because of the last DCSW updates? Yes, the bug is fixed with the latest DCS patch and the manual fix is not necessary anymore (or rather, applying it is counter productive). It works now without the fix.

Chappie Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Funny thing is I performed the fix steps and discovered that the cyclic is oscillating and when looking at the control helper the T asix is bobbing up and down. With it off I am able to hold a perfect hover so I am happy as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devrim Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Do not apply this fix. Probably you're bugging your Mi-8 module by performing this fix. This bug has been already fixed by Belsimtek.
