  1. Creating missions is often difficult for many. Advanced triggers, for example require the thought process of programmer in order to make them work, if at all. It would be great to apply some AI to the process of: Populating bases. Positioning SAM sites with engagement orders. Placing various field formations, including static objects. Giving movement routes with attacking and defending units in a batch rather than one unit at a time. Doing this with user friendly visual options and with natural language commands would be ideal. I hope AI can tackle these kinds of tasks.
  2. Actually, I have never used a mod manager with DCS. I tried one with MSFS2020 and it was a real mess as the mod itself needed updating which caused all sorts of issues, on top of the mods themselves. Regarding the mods needing other mods, I cannot say. The descriptions of the StaticTemplates say nothing about other mods being required.
  3. Great. I got it working. It seems that I had changed the folder name as StaticTemplates. The folder name should have been StaticTemplate. Interesting that one letter in the folder name was enough to foul up the works. Now that I am able to access the StaticTemplate list, I have another. I just added one of the templates to two airports in the map, added a player flyable plane. However, I cannot fly the edited map. Is there something different in the map once a StaticTemplate is added? How do I fly the map?
  4. I will try again. Maybe there something which prevented the list from populating.
  5. I have found several templates on the User File resource. Once I download and Un-Zip the files, what do I do with the files? Where are static template files stored? When I open the Load Templates from within the mission editor, there are no files in the list.
  6. for a new user, It takes a long time to populate a base with static and/or active units. It would help move things along if there were an option to auto populate and base with static of active units per the widget.
  7. I just noticed that the key bindings on all my modules have gone wacky. Left rudder controls the throttle, right rudder pushes the stick to the left, etc. Cleared bindings on one module, set new bindings and the above functions remain. This is happening with DCS and DCS Open Beta.
  8. I am not able to run standalone DCS under SteamVR. Each time I attempt to start DCS open Beta, SteamVR crashes and shows a -203 error. Restarting both applications does nothing to resolve the problem. However, the Steam version of DCS runs under SteamVR with no issues at all. What am I doing wrong in launching the standalone DCS for VR?
  9. I have a hard time getting this helicopter to slow down into a hoover without the machine instantly going into VRS.
  10. How did you program and DMS and TMS long and short presses?
  11. To do multipliers, you bring up the virtual key press screen and select whichever combination you choose. When I created a control panel for Flight Sim, I created lots if custom combinations for various controls. For example: https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=249111&stc=1&d=1601692895
  12. Yes, I love Touch Portal. I recently created a panel for Flight Sim 2020. I am now working on a panel for DCS. Here is an image of my Flight Sim panel. https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=249110&stc=1&d=1601692426
  13. I am having an issue with the KA50 default view out of the cockpit. The default cockpit view is far too close. For the KA50 specifically, in the ../aircraft/KA50 folder there is no views.lua file. With most, if not all DCS aircraft there are views.lua files where FOV settings may be changed. How does one go about making adjustments to the KA50 default FOV on the KA50???
  14. I am having an issue with the cockpit views in the KA50. You mentioned here that there is a views.lua file in the ../aircraft/FA-18 folder. Why is there no views.lua file in the ../aircraft/KA50 folder? Should there be? If not, how would I resolve cockpit view issues with the KA50?
