markturner1960 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Hi, I cant find the OP, apologies, but someone here kindly posted some edited .lua files that enabled you to program the ECM dial, launch bar and hook bypass switches correctly. I have re posted them again below. This was great apart from you re install after each update. If I re install now after 2.7, it causes various things in the cockpit to be "unclickable" and be generally fubar'd.... Can someone who knows this stuff look at why this might be and possibly alter the files so they work again with 2.7? heres hoping! Thanks!

FoxTwo Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 You don't need to do this anymore since they enabled the ECM in the F-18. Run a repair on your DCS install and try the default bindings. They fixed a typo in the F-18 bindings lua code (COCKPIT_LIGTHS is now COCKPIT_LIGHTS) and that's probably why it's broken but it's completely unnecessary at this point.

markturner1960 Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) hi, thanks, but its not there yet - hook bypass and launch bar still only listed as extend/retract & field / carrier, instead of a command to match the actual position (Which these files added).....but at least we have the ECM. Can anyone help with the others?

Can anyone help with the others? Yes hook bypass and launch bar are not in properly. Neither is the fuel dump (on/off) I think. Here's my current default.lua for \Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Input\FA-18C\joystick\ it should get you what you're looking for. default.lua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markturner1960 Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 Thanks buddy, did you make the original files as well?
