markturner1960 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) Hi, was trying to add some more control bindings for the Harrier, however when I try & highlight the tab (in my case, its the TM mfd's I want to program some view controls onto) it is partially greyed out and I get the "no command available for this device" as I mouse over it. This is only for mfd's 1 & 2, 3 lets me bind stuff. I should add that 1 and 2 already have all the normal buttons assigned. The whole column for each mfd is a darker grey than the rest.... any ideas?

LeCuvier Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Unfortunately, the Harrier is one of those modules that have the files "F16 MFD 1.lua" and "F16 MFD 2.lua" in the folder "...\joystick\". If you absolutely want to use the switches/buttons on these devices, there are three options: 1. you delete these 2 files. They will be re-created by Update/Repair so you will have to delete them again. 2. you rename them. They will be re-created by Update/Repair so you will have to delete them again. 3. you copy the lines of code for the wanted commands from "default.lua" into the 2 files. DCS World will replace the modified files with the original ones when you Update or Repair. You need to have backups of the modified files and copy them back in after Update or Repair. This is best managed with OvGME. If you are not using OvGME or JvGME already, I would recommend option 1.

markturner1960 Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 Hi, OK, I deleted the two files as per option 1, now, the 2 MDF columns are a light blue in colour and I can’t add any bindings...? Have I done something wrong? System specs: PC1 :Scan 3XS Ryzen 5900X, 64GB Corsair veng DDR4 3600, EVGA GTX 3090 Win 10, Quest Pro, Samsung Odyssey G9 Neo monitor. Tir5.

LeCuvier Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 This doesn't make sense to me as the MPCD commands are all available in the "default.lua". Unfortunately I cannot look at your situation. You can of course restore the 2 files from the recycle bin to get back to where you were before. Sorry I cannot give more help as I don't have the F-16 MFD hardware.

flyco Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Just copy the “default.lua” for the aircraft you are using, and rename it as “F16 MFCD 1.lua”, and again as “F16 MFCD 2.lua”. This should solve your problem and allow you to map any of the MFCD to your other controls (not axes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
