Apar Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 How does Stream Deck perform in VR? Or should be just get the button boxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed-of-heat Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 my experience is that the calls to interrogate switches and switch positions are very expensive computationally... in 2d that "doesn't matter" at least as much, in VR its pretty catastrophic, as the CPU frame time hit is going to be pretty bad. Consequently I just use my Stream Deck as a button box ... https://forums.eagle.ru/forum/english/dcs-world-topics/input-and-output/271902-new-streamdeck-plugin?p=6307488#post6307488 this is what i do: https://forums.eagle.ru/forum/english/dcs-world-topics/input-and-output/282274-stream-deck-as-a-dx-button-box-for-vr SYSTEM SPECS: Hardware Intel Corei7-12700KF @ 5.1/5.3p & 3.8e GHz, 64Gb RAM, 4090 FE, Dell S2716DG, Virpil T50CM3 Throttle, WinWIng Orion 2 & F-16EX + MFG Crosswinds V2, Varjo Aero SOFTWARE: Microsoft Windows 11, VoiceAttack & VAICOM PRO YOUTUBE CHANNEL: @speed-of-heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veenee Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) I am completely new to Stream Deck (got one this afternoon) but for the life of me I can't get it working with DCS. Hotkeys are just not registered, whatever I do - but they are working fine for any functions or keys outside of DCS. What obvious thing am I missing? I got it working with Export Script etc, but it should just work with hotkeys.....right?

I'm a bit unclear about the HotKeys, I take it you mean using the StreamDeck to assign Keyboard sequences to the game using the HotKey button option available for the StreamDeck I assume you've alrready downloaded "System" to enable you to get that button command, shown in the picture on the column at the right Drag that onto a button and it'll give you 2 lines one for a title and one for the keypress sequence. Just a note when it pulls the command in, you will see next to the "Hotkey:" an arrow indicating a drop down window, offering options. Click on it and select the Differentiate left/right modifiers, at the top. Select that before assigning the hotkey, if you don't all modifiers will be the left ones by default i.e. Shift is L_Shift, Alt is L_Alt etc: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veenee Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 thank you, I will double check - but I think I did all as prescribed yesterday the only modifier I tried was left shift, so I guess it would work anyway? but will double check nevertheless, thanks!

veenee Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I think I will have to give up on hotkeys and go the other way with DCS Stream Deck plugin, they are just not being registered in DCS, but are in all other programs(?)

Weegie Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Can you either PM me or post up here what particular keybinds you're trying to implement and I'll try them out with my StreamDeck...............if you want to that is Any Keybinds I've wanted to use via StreamDeck all seem to work fine. One question, are you in Europe? I posted a little while back that I came accross a problem specific to the R_Alt modifier for the European keyboard. A European keyboard sends a L-Ctl+R-Alt when pressed down. Some software is clever enough to ignore the L_Ctl command but not the StreamDeck. To get around that I change to a US keyboard when making the command in the StreamDeck then changeback to my normal UK keyboard in Windows. After that's done it always worked fine so far. Realize that's a long shot but thought I'd post it up anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veenee Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I am based in UK, but I think R Alt is not an issue. Example - I have RIOs CAP numerical keyboard bound as NumPad keys - so no modifiers at all. I linked them the same way in Stream soft as Hotkeys and they do not register when I am in RIO seat. If I press the NumPad keys directly - they work as they should. So many modules, so little time... www.mikphotography.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veenee Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 OK I know what it was My DCS is always run as administrator and Stream Deck wasn't. Works now! So many modules, so little time... www.mikphotography.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf 37 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Question about the file? I get an error message that says there is no application at path C:\DCSWorld\bin\DCS.exe I don't have anything at that particular path, how do I get the profile to work without going through and rebinding everything on my systems?

Renko Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hey guys! New to Streamdeck and im looking for some help I would like to know how to make one button to show me some values, but instad of fraction giving me numbers with value on the sim. For this particulary case i was trying the Gazelle to send me radar altimeter values. This is in the lua: "-- radar altimetre [94] = "%.4f", -- Radar_Altimeter {0,5,10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100,110,120,130,140,150,200,250,300,350,400,450,500,550,600,650,700,750,800,850}{0,0.019,0.035,0.072,0.109,0.147,0.18,0.214,0.247,0.283,0.316,0.345,0.376,0.407,0.438,0.469,0.501,0.564,0.606,0.648,0.676,0.706,0.732,0.756,0.775,0.794,0.811,0.829,0.843,0.858,0.87}" The values that show are the fraction ones, but i want to know what i need to do to have the values on the other string. So it shows 0,5,10,20, etc instead of 0,0.019,0.035,0.072,0.109 I tried to find the answer by myself but i cant figure it out, a little help would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallenbach Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Im very new to the stream deck. I have installed the DCS Bios and the streamdeck-dcs-interface (with DSC export script) In the export.lua is only the path to dsc.bios. But none of your profiles will work for me. I get this error: DCS module not detected. Check that DCS mission is running, there is a .lua script for the module within "DCS-ExportScript\ExportsModules\", and the port settings above match those in "DCS-ExportScript\Config.lua" The exportmodules will work. What is going wrong? Thanks for help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny415 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Installation and Configuration - DCS Interface for Streamdeck - YouTube Are you in the cockpit when you click the button nothing happen? check your stream deck DCS export connection global setting "IP address, listener port, send port" matches in the config file. by going in DCS comms. check your DCS world install directory is set to your game if your using stable version or openbeta, by going to ID lookup in stream deck. check if DCS world is either running with or without administrator. If running with admin, stream deck need to run as admin too. if you using Helios check the video set the correct send port. update your stream deck software and firmware.

Dallenbach Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Thanks for your help jonny, I use only stream deck. All the points I have done before I startet with your profiles. Except to check the export connection. Now I have changed the BIOS.config with the DCS comms. But with no luck. The DCS Interface cannot connect with the DCS. The Modules from Exportscript will do. Very strange. Thanks again for help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
