DCS DTC

https://github.com/the-paid-actor/dcs-dtc

This is a mod for DCS that works as a DTC (Data Cartridge) for the F-16.

Features:

• Allows uploading to the F-16 cockpit:
  • Waypoints
  • Countermeasure settings
  • Radios
  • MFD pages settings for the major modes (NAV, AA, AG, DGFT, MSL)
• Enables you to share and receive settings from other people using this mod, either by file or clipboard
• Allows capturing a waypoint coordinate using the F10 view in DCS, or a "markpoint" by flying over a point in the map.

Requirements

This application is written using .NET Framework 4.7.2. You may want to download the latest version from the Microsoft website.

Installation

• Grab the zip file from the Releases tab on Github.
• Unzip it into a folder of your choice.
• Copy the DCSDTC.lua file into C:\Users\<your user name>\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts. Substitute C: for the drive where your Windows is installed and DCS for DCS.openbeta if you are on the beta version.
• In that same folder, edit a file named Export.lua. If the file does not exists, create it yourself.
• Add the following line to the end of the file, if its not there already:

local DCSDTClfs=require('lfs'); dofile(DCSDTClfs.writedir()..'Scripts/DCSDTC.lua')
