raymondabel Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) using the A-10C profile IFCC (384) does not seem to send info to DCS correction. if the Ikarus switch in at the "on" position, if I move it to "test"position, DCS receive a "OFF" position. the bottom switch farder right ( touchpanel) does not seem to do anything Same with master arm(375) ; main gun(376), laser (377) taxi light (655) so it seems that theire is someting to adjust with 3 way switches Touche panel switch does not seems to do anyting Whish list : - close/open cockpit, Thanks for you time Ray Edited April 29, 2018 by raymondabel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fakum Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Thanks Ray This one is a little more tricky since there are 2 layers. I was able to make the Harrier VHF radio window transparent, but the radio data will not export through the Base panel AND the VHF panel? I dont know how to do that?

I will try to figure out how during the week. Thanks well I spend some time reading the WIKI and most of the doc. I use to do some programming many years ago but to be honest. I hope H-J-P will help us out. because I will spend undred of hours to first understand the be able to fix any code. Modifiying an interface to fit a screen is one thing. Modifify code to work with DCS is an other. Salutations Ray Edited April 30, 2018 by raymondabel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-J-P Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) There is also a wiki for the export script. Everyone should know that, too. https://github.com/s-d-a/DCS-ExportScripts/wiki If someone has understood that too, then he can solve many things himself.

raymondabel Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Correction needed I'll take a look again. The A-10C profile was one of the first we developed. Thanks for the IDs. That helps a lot. Good report. Thanks for your time !!! beside the 5 3-ways switches and the "touch -panel" one, everything works perfectly. here it is : I would realy do appreciate if you could fix those. If you have the time to ha a canopi open/close that would be a very great add-on. About the suggestion to go to the WIKIs (their is some of them) I have read it. To be real honest, my programming time are about 20 years behing me so, it is a bit hard for me to find what I am looking for. Thanks anyway for each minutes you will spend looking to it for us.

BluFinBima Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Hello everyone, I've been looking at the AV-8B profile in Ikarus, and it is a great piece of work. Apologies if I have missed the answer to this, but my searches turned up nothing. Unfortunately I cannot find a DCS-Exports for the AV-8B. For most devices I can work them out, but for devices in the synthetic range (ie 2000 upwards) and which are calculated in the Exports.lua, I'm struggling to identify the sub-devices for the AV-8B. Does anyone have an export.lua which calculates the values for all of the devices in the AV-8B DisplayDotMatix classes? If so, would you mind sharing with me please? Many thanks BlueFinBima Latest Helios Virtual Cockpit Team version of Helios can be found on Github BlueFinBima Helios YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluFinBima Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Many thanks for the response Heinz. I realise this is a little cheeky for me to ask, but it would help me a lot if you could post or PM me with the senddata lines for devices 2000 - 2018. I'd also be interested to know if you think it would be possible to expose the ODU messages directly (ie without using a viewport). The AV8B is still in beta testing. Please wait a bit longer.

H-J-P Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) It is very difficult if the mainpanel_init.lua is actually almost empty. Of course we still have possibilities, but they too are limited. It costs time. That should not be.

Guppy Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) I'm having some crazy performance issues running this software. Lets talk about my setup first, though, 4 Displays: 1x Primary: ASUS ROG 34" 3440x1440 3x Secondary 8" 800x600 I'm running DCS in windowed mode, with the game extended to the secondary monitors. I have setup the F-15 to export two separate 'windows' to two of the monitors (one of HSI and one for ADI). In the Export.lua file I have added the line: dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[scripts\DCS-ExportScript\ExportScript.lua]]) When Ikarus is running (or even not running) I am seeing wild frame rates between 19-30fps. When I comment out the dofile line my frames stay contantly at 60FPS. --dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[scripts\DCS-ExportScript\ExportScript.lua]]) Is this a known issue? I tried searching this thread but didn't see any direct answers. You'll find my computer setup below in my signature. When I'm running all 4 monitors I turn off SLI and have one of the GTX 1080Ti devoted to the secondary monitors. Thoughts?? UPDATE: I went into the Config file in the DCS-ExportScript folder and set both D.A.C. (DCS Arcaze Connector) and Ikarus and D.A.C. can send data from true to false, which improved my frames. I'm mostly stable at 60FPS but it stutters occasionally; is this normal behavior?
