DCS World TARGET profile for TM Cougar and Warthog + MFDs
Home Fries replied to Home Fries's topic in Thrustmaster
Spud, I was away for a while, and just saw this. It's no doubt due to the new version of TARGET that allows up to 120 buttons. This makes the DX+.tmh file redundant and likely incompatible. I'll need to look at this, so please be patient. -
DCS World TARGET profile for TM Cougar and Warthog + MFDs
Home Fries replied to Home Fries's topic in Thrustmaster
No promises. I'm very near the stack limit of what TARGET will allow. I'm hoping I can get one more module in before I put all my effort into CTS 3.0. -
You're in! (Time late 1 week or so)

Yes, the TMC file. Sorry. Also, sorry I took so long to get back. I was away all last week. -

Once you have downloaded version.txt (and the version in the OP of this thread is correct), be sure to put it in the CTS\DB folder. You should be prompted to overwrite the original. If this doesn't work, you can always reinstall. As long as you install to the same location, it won't affect your custom profile settings. Please upload your dcs_world.cts file so I may analyze it. -

I'll take a look at the Mirage. I haven't looked at the MiG-21 since VAICOM went freeware, so I'll take a look when I get an opportunity. Thanks for the heads-up. No promises; it may be something I need to fix in CTS 3.0. I responded to your PM, but I'll post the answer for everyone else's benefit. I noticed on the hornet in particular that you need longer keypresses than the default 60ms to get something to register. I actually increased the default keypress time for the F/A-18 in particular, though this is something you can adjust in CTS. If you go to the F/A-18C section of the values page, you'll see Keypress Duration for F/A-18 and Delay between Keypresses for F/A-18. These are set to 70 and 80ms respectively, and you can increase them by small amounts to work for your system. Regarding the diff.lua files, the R/N for the kb file is for the orientation of the numeric keypad, where N is for Normal (789 on the top, 123 on the bottom) and R is for Reverse (123 on the top, 789 on the bottom like the UFC itself). The rest of the files are for the specific controllers, e.g. WH for Warthog and HC for HOTAS Cougar. The first 2 MFDs are applied to the TARGET profile integrated into the virtual controller. The MFD3 diff.luas are for if you have a third MFD you can apply that to the individual controller in DCS (TARGET sees only the first 2 MFDs). Remember that the controls menu is a spreadsheet, where the commands are the rows and the controllers are columns, and each controller gets its own assignments (and its own diff.lua). -

Everyone, I'm happy to announce that version 2.72 is released, along with a new webhost that should provide better uninterrupted service than my personal NAS. A new installer is available in the original post, as well as an updated version.txt that you can place in your CTS\DB folder. However, if you do not wish to do a full update, you can open your existing version.txt and replace the top line with this entry: http://cts.virtualarmedforces.com/CTS/DCS/CTSversion.txt I would also like to give a special shout out to the Virtual Armed Forces for hosting CTS going forward. This may seem a bit self-serving since I am a member of the VAF, but I cannot appreciate enough their commitment to the storage and bandwidth CTS requires. If you ever want to play PvE multiplayer in a competent, yet relaxed atmosphere, give the VAF a look. You can also see us in the Air Combat Sim Podcast #42! -

First, you shouldn't install CTS to your TARGET folder in c:\Program Files (x86). This is a protected folder. Install CTS to someplace like your Documents folder. CTS will find your TARGET install. Next, be sure to compile DCS_World.tmc in the CTS graphical user interface prior to running it. I'm sorry I can't spell this out auf Deutsch.

All, It's been a while, but I'm happy to announce that I have a persistent solution to hosting that takes the CTS content off my NAS and onto the cloud. I would like to thank @VAF [136] Striker of the Virtual Armed Forces (shameless plug) for the storage space. A month ago, I had to change my network solution, and with the new solution I was unable to forward the HTTP port to my NAS, and I refuse to set it up as a DMZ. Once the cloud-based solution is finalized (thanks again, VAF, in another shameless plug), I will upload a new installer EXE as well as an updated version.txt for you to use if you don't wish to reinstall. In the meantime, the latest files are still available on my Google Drive. Just extract the zip files to your CTS folder and they're nested properly to go into the folders they should be in. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! -
We are recruiting, and the discord was just updated (we were unaware that the so-called permanent link had expired). We'd love for both of you to stop by our channel and see if we're a fit for you. Full disclosure: activity for our F-14 squadron is currently suspended while we build the F-15E squadron, but we will gladly reopen it for membership with interest like yours. We have one F-14 driver who recently returned. We're also happy to instruct in both pilot and RIO seats.

@Rudel_chw Thank you for doing these missions. They're a great addition to the training regimen!
