Helios in DCS 2.0

[Ashy]

Has anyone been able to get Helios to work with 2.0. My current .lua will not export the images....

I was having grief last night.

My user/saved games/dcs/scripts export script was the culprit. For some reason when I had the 'dofile - aries' line edited out with '//' - Helios broke.

If I removed the '//' (Enabling Aries), or removed the entire line (Disabling it), it works perfectly.

No idea if you have the same issue, but that was my fix.

Ah, if you were using // that explains it. You should be using -- to comment out unwanted lines.

Images? Or you mean TAD/CMS/CLOCK/ETC... ?

Yes it will not export anything. It will not export left right mfcd clock rwr nothing. Normally when in 1.2 my monitor would turn black and the once i got in the plane it would then export the images. now all i see is my desktop. As if nothing is happening.

Ok so I was able to get everything to export as normal. now when i run helios all it does is crash as soon as i run the profile. Any clue as to what i should look into?

Make sure you fix the exports, resolution and screen configuration
1. From old install transfer exports for MFCD, Clock, UHF repeater, CMSC, CMSP
2. Copy monitor config file from old install to new install
3. Copy game settings and you should be ok

Is export script working OK?
Did screen configuration change?
Did profile get changed somehow?

Export script is working as should.


Yes i had to change the screen configuration changed. Meaning i had to change the resolution in game. To 3840x1080 which in turn made the export script work. (Forgot i had to do that stupid me.)

I haven't changed anything to to profile.... that i know of....

Does your helios work Energy? I think i may try uninstalling and then re installing helios.
