DCS World | Export Screens With Helios

[@theglaucusblue]

This is worlds ahead of the other tutorials I've found for getting Helios working with DCS. Thank you very much.

[@OverkillSimulations]

Thanks!!!

Great vid. I have a very similar setup. 3 34" ultrawides, 1 55" led TV, cougar mfd's (without screen), 2 8" tablets. So I'm kinda stuck. I have used game glass on the tablets for star citizen and it worked well but for DCS Game Glass only has free home made shards. I'm not worried about having a live screen in the cougar mfd's but I want to keep them for extra keybind buttons and use the tablets as mfd's like you did here. Guess the big question here is "Is Helios the best option for exporting mfd's to touch screen tablets?" Will watch your other vids and see what other things you've tried.

Many thanks, I finally managed to make it work after this tutorial! I have two winwings MFDs with their buttons but I wanted to use another free monitor I had "unused" to put in there the F15E's center mpd.. I got rid of the winwing Simapp pro software and succesfully exported the left and right mfds viewport to the winwings through helios, and then added the center one to the other free monitor I had.. Here I layered the viewport to the bezel structure in helios, the viewport works perfectly, but if I mouse click the buttons do not work.. Do I have to bind them in helios I suppose? Thanks! :)

Freaking outstanding video! Been searching and beating my head against the wall for 2 weeks. Got 3 monitors and my F14 HSD on a iPad. I might actually be able to fly now.

Hi, I have a problem with this "Add at least one enabled DCS insallation location." Which I have to choose? I stuck right here... help please.

[@hsn1473]

thanks for the tutorial but for me it braks the integrity check

[@TheCrash1983]

thank you so much for breaking it down Barny style, i got it all working and am very grateful. subscribed

[@97zx9rninja]

Great help thanks, what touch screens do you use?

[@Bedgie01]

I wonder if this helios originated from the good old days of open falcon, free falcon and red viper as there was a program called helios that did sort of the same thing sort of

[@navyjoker2000]

Is there a way to have the kneeboards export to a second screen using this process?

[@СергейНюков]

Hello, comrade! Please tell me - the Su-25T mod version 1.0 dashboard does not match the panel of this aircraft, which flies in Hot flames version 3. In addition, the heading sensor in version 1.0 mod does not show correctly. How to fix this error? Thank you!

[@jasonhaettich2610]

How do you get the other gauges (F-16 altimeter for example) to sync with DCS?

[@juscianoguimaraes9033]

Good morning, I have a 5120x1440 monitor, I bought another 800x600 monitor I would like to use Apache's MFD but I don't know how to use Helios, I've already watched your videos 12 times but it doesn't work for me, please help me

[@arose001]

Great video but I am still having issues with the set up. Anyone available for a chat? My MFD's are showing up on another screen while the whole console is on another screen. Thanks

[@shamandgg]

THANK YOU!!!

[@blihp]

great vid, thanks. Quick Q- how do connect 5 x monitors to a card with 4 outputs? thanks

[@OverkillSimulations]

Usb to hdmi adapters DON'T BUY THE CHEAP ONES.. they will disconnect at the slightest movement

[@jasonhaettich2610]

Appreciate this!

[@Ulfger]

Well, thank you.

Quick question, I am for now using a single monitor with cougar packs stuck to it for the mfd’s, I wanted to use other monitor space for the rwr, but even though I put the rwr viewport on the monitor, it doesn’t show up but the mfd’s do.

[@N3onL1zard]

Did you ever get this figured out?

[@Dcscockpit]

@@N3onL1zard yes. You have to lay the a-10 rwr bezel down over the f16 viewport

[@danielkenber9823]

Curious.. Just ordered the WinWing MIP which uses Sim App Pro to configure the MFD's. Any thoughts on how Helios or SimApp pro coexist (or don't)?

[@OverkillSimulations]

I haven't actually tried it. That's a good question... however, my thoughts would be based on how DCS World works on LUA files... I would assume.... I know dangerous word..... that they would be fine together.

[@danielkenber9823]

@@OverkillSimulations should be set up in a week or so I’ll report back. Thanks for the reply!

[@vasilisroukis1108]

Any update bout how sim app pro and heliis work? I just want to export rwr in a different display while i have 2 winwing mfds and ufc, is that possible?

[@danielkenber9823]

Finally got my simrig back together and I’ll be working on this type of setup (sim app and Helios) over the next little while. I’ll let you know

[@N3onL1zard]

Any updates?

[@chiefcoonsie]

Great Class!!!!!!!!!

[@Ginuwine-kx2iv]

What do you do if it’s the F-15c? I’m not seeing that in the interface panel?

[@N3onL1zard]

I have an extra monitor that I’m using for MFDs and I chose the add new interface Flaming cliffs And then added generic left MFD and generic right MFDs. It only shows the Radar scanner on the left side where I set it up while in the F-15c, and it shows the right MFD while I’m in the A-10A. The problem I’m having is it shows the cockpit moving in the background of where the MFDs are not taking up space. So I gotta figure out how to turn that off. Plus I’m going to try to re do it to make them smaller and add the RWR and Weapons MFD So I’m still working on it.

[@robstjean5077]

Will this still export the screens when playing in VR?

[@OverkillSimulations]

I think so... I wouldn't see why not

[@greenranger2764]

I saw something new!

[@NSteinseifer81]

Do you have any issues failng the Integrity Check when playing multiplayer? I got all my MFDs set up and since installing the viewport patches, i can no longer pass to play on most servers.

[@mhyteeL]

Same issue
