DCS UFC ( Android app )

Thx for this awesome APP. It makes my Workflow more better.

But I have a little Question.

Are there other Funktions planned for the F16.

Maybe EHSI or Masterarmpanel.

I need to know how many Tablets I have to order in the Future ;P

Hi pet333r,

First of all, thank you for an amaizing app!:thumbup::thumbup:

I`m having a problem with the Hornet IFEI as some of the guys that already posted. Buttons works OK, but no info display. UFC works perfect, the rest of the planes also works perfect (Viper and the Mirage).

Just try this different things today.

1. Clean installation of DCS Open World.

2. Just download your script so it`s updated.

If I check the network, every time that I press some of the IFEIs buttons some information gets send to my computer, but no response with information (marked in dark grey).

The "Destination Unreachable" errors happend whenever I start a mission.

PC: 192.168.1.107

Tablet: 192.168.1.113

Any ideas what`s wrong?

Let me know if you any more information.

Thanks!

Hmm, I've tried rebooting the device, and no luck. Will try rebooting the router next.

I found a bug that could cause this, download the file itself to Hornet and replace it in the script.

https://github.com/pet333r/pw-dev_script/blob/master/Modules/FA-18C_hornet.lua

Let me know if it helped

Sure, more additions are planned, not only for Viper:smilewink:

EHSI is Viewport the same as MFD (and that's more complicated)

... but ...

I managed to "extract" some data from EHSI (and it would be even better), but I still have to "figure out" the rest

Thanks for the quick response pet333r, unfortunately it`s no joy for me, still the same problem.

I updated the C:\Users\mirage\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Scripts\pw-dev_script\Modules\FA-18C_hornet.lua file, restart the app, restart the sim but still the same problem.

let me know if you need any test or capture (maybe some network capture) from my side.

Thanks!

I did quite a bit of modification a few minutes ago

U are the best and tke ur time:thumbup:

I think I discovered the problem - for some reason my laptop was using the same IP as the forced IP on the tablet. I'll reserve the IPs for the DCS UFC devices and see how I go.

Is any functionality for the Viggen also planned?

Dadapanel, WP Panel, Mastermode Switch, Central Indicator.

First, the CK-47 and the waypoints. I didn't think about what to add later, I think Master Mode panel as well. What useful else can I add?

You are awesome thanks for the quick reply.

Thanks again for your support pet333r, but I still have the same problem, I don`t know if the new version fix the problem for anybody else.

I downloaded the entire repo again and update the pw-dev_script folder. Update the new Config.lua with my tablet IP, and restart everything. The UFC and bottons work OK, but no engine information is displayed.

I have a lot of the Viggen controls bound to my Virpil throttle. But it would be really helpful to have on a tablet, for me, would be the 1) Data panel, 2) Navigation panel and 3) Engine control.

Thank you for all the hard work you put into this software! :thumbup:

YOU ARE THE MAN! Keep up the great work - including one more panel for the Tomcat so I can have 4 x tablets and 1 x smartphone cluttering up my desk!:joystick:

Just did a full reformat/reinstall of Windows, and had to reinstall DCS and my apps. It looks like I've stuffed up my Export.lua file though, as DCS UFC is no longer working. Note that I have three different programs that all touch Export.lua in their own way, and they don't always work together - DCS UFC, TacView and SimShaker Aviator (haven't installed SRS yet). Here's the Export.lua contents I now have, and I'm getting zero response from DCS UFC (I've updated the app on my tablets, and run the update script.

Didn't you change anything in the main Export.lua file after reinstallation? Check your computer's IP address, maybe after reinstalling Windows it has been assigned a different IP (compare with the one given in the DCS UFC settings). If this is ok check the firewall (in Windows) that it is not blocking ports

Just a few more things to add, tests and the panel will be ready????

Wow! The Viggen panel looks great!

My PC's IP is definitely 192.168.1.101, as you can see from the ipconfig command. What port should I open? Does the Windows firewall normally block this port? I'm also using Bitdefender, which is new to me - can't see a way to open individual ports, it can only give permission to apps. And I've given DCS permission.

Was my export.lua file correct?
