TARS is now compatible with Flaming Cliffs 3

Recommended Posts

Try un-checking and re-checking "Install Tars" in the control panel. If you installed a mod and it overwrote your export file, that would fix it.

 

Alternatively, ensure your server is set to enable export in its network config.

Asked server admin to investigate network.cfg file first...

This is file list, how it should be, if you are running TACVIEW + TARS + HELIOS

 

%USERNAME\Saved Games\DCS\Config\

network.cfg - with exports enabled "true"

 

%USERNAME\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\

Export.lua - with HELIOS code ending with --file ends with dofiles like

dofile("./Config/Export/TacviewExportDCS.lua")

dofile(lfs.writedir().."Scripts\\TARSExport.lua")

 

 

now in

c:\Games\DCS World\Config\Export\

you should find only one file

TacviewExportDCS.lua

 

and in the

c:\Games\DCS World\Scripts\

 

Export.lua should be left above folder untouched, and there should be no legacy TARS files or folders inside DCS install folder (delete all of them!) and/or user folder (if you did manual editing). I noticed these manual checks have to be done to avoid having left over TARS files (probably conflicting or dead) if you installed newer version of TARS over older version of TARS before TARS was compatible with changes to DCS regarding how user lua files are handled in windows user saved games folders.

Not anymore, shamandgg! With the last versions of TacView (1.2.4) there is no more need to re-create the DCS-disused directory \DCS World\Config\Export\

 

Now, TacView 1.2.4 installs the needed files for exporting DCS data directly into \Saved Games\DCS\Scripts with:

  • One line at the end of export.lua:
    local Tacviewlfs=require('lfs');dofile(Tacviewlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/TacviewExportDCS.lua')


    (the same export.lua will also contain the dofile for TARS or other apps/add-ons needing it)

  • the TacviewExportDCS.lua in \Saved Games\DCS\Scripts

I will migrate last .lua file into my Saved Games folder manually.

 

Now regarding <51>SERVER, we have trouble.

Due to high rate of requests regarding exports have been disabled (false'd) in network.cfg file for our server. Server admins asks us on what particular times we wish to have TARS compatibility (read: we will enable exports on certain times), then we can make TARS fly-in events on <51>SERVER.

I'd be really happy to organize such TARS fly-in event on large scale. Where users can test TARS to the max, with their preferable aircrafts, exchange experiences and help others with configuration. Something like HAM radio gather-up nerd-event. Wanna?

:pilotfly:
