  1. The Bunny Apache Export modifications stopped working with the latest update (1/27/23).The display control folders (EUFD,KU,TEDAC) have been moved to the main DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Cockpit\Scripts\Displays folder. To each folder you must add the following lines to the ends of the X_init.lua files as follows: to the "DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Cockpit\Scripts\Displays\KU\KU_init.lua" file add --ViewportHandling dofile(LockOn_Options.common_script_path.."ViewportHandling.lua") try_find_assigned_viewport("AH64_KU") to the "DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Cockpit\Scripts\Displays\EUFD\EUFD_cpg_init.lua" file add --ViewportHandling dofile(LockOn_Options.common_script_path.."ViewportHandling.lua") try_find_assigned_viewport("AH64_CPG_EUFD") to the "DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Cockpit\Scripts\Displays\EUFD\EUFD_cpg_init.lua" file add --ViewportHandling dofile(LockOn_Options.common_script_path.."ViewportHandling.lua") try_find_assigned_viewport("AH64_CPG_EUFD") to the "DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Cockpit\Scripts\Displays\EUFD\EUFD_plt_init.lua" file add --ViewportHandling dofile(LockOn_Options.common_script_path.."ViewportHandling.lua") try_find_assigned_viewport("AH64_PLT_EUFD") My "\DCSWorld\Config\MonitorSetup\AH64D.lua" looks like this --Monitor setup file _ = function(p) return p; end; name = _('AH64D'); Description = 'Cockpit, left and right MPCDs' Viewports = { Center = { x = 696.0; y = 1600.0; width = 5120; height = 1440; viewDx = 0; viewDy = 0; aspect = 3.555555555555556; } } LEFT_MFCD = { x = 3923; y = 707; width = 761; height = 761; } RIGHT_MFCD = {x = 4970; y = 707;width = 761;height = 761;} AH64_CPG_EUFD = {... AH64_PLT_EUFD = {... AH64_KU = {... TEDAC = {... } UIMainView = Viewports.Center GU_MAIN_VIEWPORT = Viewports.Center The TEDAC and MFCD exports do not require any init.lua file modifications Hope this helps!
  2. Yes - thanks. Found he problem - floated the cursor over the Campaign name in the list and it popped up "Missing module-Persian Gulf"
  3. Just purchased and downloaded AH64 MAD campaign on STREAM. The MAD campaign shows up on the campaign list for AH64 and it is select-able but the OK button is dimmed and nothing happens when it is 'pressed'. Cancel button works fine. Campaign shows as 'inactive' which is normal for a new campaign. Tried restarting and checked the files location and everything looks fine. Anyone else with this problem?
  4. This is a quick and clean profile - straight DCS assignments for the new Thrustmaster FA-18c joystick and (A-10) HOTAS throttle. Enjoy! :pilotfly: Instructions: 1. Startup Hornet in Cold and Dark. 2. Hit 'esc' and Adjust Controls. On the CONTROL OPTIONS page Select 'Modifiers' and ADD the Throttle Red Hat-forward and the Joystick Sensor Control-center push buttons to the 'Modifiers' list. 3. Clear all entries from joystick and throttle (and optionally control rudder). Just select an antry in a category and press 'Clear category'. 4. Select an entry from joystick and push the 'Load profile' button. 5. Navigate to the included file titled "Joystick - HOTAS Warthog (select Joystick in CONTROL OPTIONS and load profile).diff" and execute. 6. Do the same for Throttle entries and optionally the Rudder, MFD1 and MFD2 (cougar) columns. 7. Go to the C://Users/{your user name}/Saved Games/DCS/Config/View folder. Rename the SnapViews.lua file to SnapViews.lua_ to protect it. Copy the included SnapViews.lua file to the folder. These views may need to be tweaked to conform to your monitor size and resolution (see https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=216344 ) 8. Relaunch DCS to load the snap views and you should be good to go. Notes: 1. The Parking Brake button is not a toggle. Hitting it once will completely release the parking brake but to engage the brake you must hit it again once (to turn the break handle) then hit RIGHT-CTRL-P to pull it. 2. The views on the throttle pinkey switch are SNAP views that are HELD by the toggle switch. If you do not re-center the switch when you are done with the view it will mess up other views (like your CENTER VIEW). 3. To use the VIEW CENTER/VIEW COCKPIT button on the joystick (as your 'time to fly the aircraft' button) you can just hit it most of the time, but if you have messed with the zoom you then need to center-push the zoom button (right next door). If your view has been wandering outside of the cockpit you need to hold the throttle-SHIFT (red hat forward) button while hitting the VIEW CENTER/VIEW COCKPIT button to bring your view back inside the aircraft then release the shift button and hit the VIEW CENTER/VIEW COCKPIT button again to center the view. Sounds complicated but is actually pretty quick and intuitive. (I consider this button to be the most important on the joystick if you don't enjoy flying into mountains.) 4. Note that the real-world FA-18 functions of the joystick buttons are 'SHIFTED' while the view functions are not. After several hours of experimentation I found this configuration to represent the best compromise between authenticity and survival. HornetProfile.zip
