mickt014 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Hi Gents, I have struggled for 4 days now with Helios and appear to be getting no where. I can get the profile to run on my touch screen but cannot get it to mirror the sim in any way. I hope someone can point me in the right direction of a step by step guide for Old Brain dead Dummies. I have watched god knows how many videos/guides but get nowhere. I have a 34inch main screen 3440x1440 to run the sim on and a 21inch 1920x1080 touch screen. Also have 2 27inch 2650x1440 either side. I have no idea what to do with Lua files so I am stuck. Hopefully someone can help. Thanks in advance Regards Mick :cry: There are old Pilots and there are Bold Pilots.....but there are no Old Bold Pilots :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Zeen Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 probably you are installing the CapLoz profile for the A10C. Or an old profile. ED made changes on some code time a go, and all the old export.lua dont work anymore. Just go to my website: www.captzeen.com and download the latest export.lua from the download section. With that one, everything works again. Capt_Zeen_HELIOS PROFILES_WEBSITE Capt_Zeen_Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickt014 Posted April 15, 2018 Author Share Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) Hi Capt, thanks for the response. I already have got the latest lua Nov 17. I still cannot get anything to work, I have made my own gauges as per YT videos and still nada. I put the lua in the DCS World folder and a copy in the scripts just incase :-) is that ok?. Do I need to edit the lua in anyway?. I have tried just about every recent profile I can dl. I'll keep trying, really want the gazelle on my touch screen. Thanks Just found a newer lua in the Gaz folder, but yet again no joy. I have tried just one or two gauges on all screens and nothing. Can you confirm where the lua should go exactly. I am sure I am missing something with the luas but I don't know what. Am I supposed to edit them or are they PnP ?. Thanks again :-) Edited April 15, 2018 by mickt014 Found latest lua There are old Pilots and there are Bold Pilots.....but there are no Old Bold Pilots :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeJohn Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 mickt014; The export.lua file you downloaded from Capt Zeen website goes in the Scripts folder in your saved games folder. Looks something like this... \Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\export.lua If you don't have a Scripts folder there, create one and place the export file in it.

Capt Zeen Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Looking at your profiles, i dont see nothing wrong. Run DCS, start a mision with the A10C, and then, exit from the mision. Then go to DCS/logs/dcs.log and check if there is a error related to the export.lua If you want, send it to me and i can take a look.

mickt014 Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 Hi Capt, have just ran clean install of 2.5 with A10c and it works !! :-). Excellent piece of kit, thank you very much for your help and the effort you have put in to this program. Finally is there a separate process for the mfc's, I am just about to drag the web and look for a tutorial / guide. Many Thanks from a very happy A10c Pilot :pilotfly: There are old Pilots and there are Bold Pilots.....but there are no Old Bold Pilots :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
