LUA Scripting Hooks

Maswi · February 8, 2019

Hey guys,

for a mission I want to run on my server I need some hooks lua.

I started out writing my code and testing it in console so far with a fake DCS interface. Everything was working perfectly.

I then tried to interface it with DCS, so I put my .lua file into

/savedgames/DCS/scripts/hooks

Of course it didn't work. At first I thought, I had done something wrong in my script so I simplified it down to something like:

local simplescript= {}



net.log("this callback has been reached")


DCS.setUserCallbacks(simplescript)

However, I cannot see the corresponding logs and my script never runs.

Forum tells me another guy has kind of a comparable problem here, which was never answered

Anyone can help?

Thanks

Hi Maswi,

I found something interesting here:

"Installation:

Take the file and put it in the servers - C:\Users\<computer name>\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\

File has to end with GameGUI.lua (case sensitive)"

After that, it worked for me! (but not callbacks, not yet)

Thx xcom if you read this
