Helios 1.6.610 Hot Fix 1

Release 1.6.6101.2

About Hot Fix 1

The previous release of Helios 1.6.610 did not deliver the plugin file 'AH-64D.dll' which contains the majority of the content relating to DCS AH-64D Apache. This Hotfix level corrects this problem.

User Notes

This release contains an interface and associated artefacts for the CH-47F Chinook from Eagle Dynamics. Since the CH-47F is still in Early Access, it is anticipated that future changes by ED will require further updates to Helios. There are changes to the Falcon BMS F-16 MFDs and Hydraulic Pressure gauges as well as support for Version 21.
There have been changes to several Helios controls to enable easier implementation of advanced binding in profiles. There is also a number of bug fixes

Helios 1.6.607

Release 1.6.6070.2

User Notes

This release is predominantly bug fixes affecting AH-64D, AJS-37, F-15E, A-10C, along with new fucntion for Falcon BMS and the ability to use individual display lines for the F-15E ODU. There are significant changes to the AJS-37 Viggen which were contributed by @usagiyon.

Notes

1. The changes to the AJS-37 SoftInterface means that the latest revision is not backwardly compatible and profiles written against an earlier release of the soft interface will not function completely as it used to. This can be remedied by using an older copy of the files DCS.AJS37.hif.json & DCS.AJS37.hif.lua into the %userprofile%\Documents\Helios\Interfaces\HeliosInterfaces\ folder.
2. The AH-64D TEDAC from the Toolbox in Profile Editor now comes with a viewport named TEDAC which does not require a patch (although the original patch is still shipped with Helios. This name change, resolves a problem with ghosting of the in-game TEDAC display.

Helios 1.6.606 HotFix 1

Release 1.6.6061.1

User Notes

This contains a HotFix for a problem which resulted in many of the DCS SoftInterfaces incorrectly over-writing their driver files.

Another release with a mixture of bug fixes and minor improvements. One significant change is to DCS drivers for interfaces which declare multiple variants (examples are the DCS F-14B, DCS P-47D, & DCS P-51D but there are others).

Note

Changes made in this release will result DCS users needing to perform "Setup DCS" in one of their DCS interfaces to remove the preflight
warning that HeliosExport16.lua has been changed. Users of interfaces which have been declared with multiple vehicles will also need to perform "Setup DCS" in that interface in Profile Editor to update the drivers of affected interfaces.

Helios 1.6.603

Release 1.6.6030.1

User Notes

This release has a focus on viewports with a new control to allow adjustment of viewport images using the Screen Exporter control. These image adjustments are similar to the latest release of Iris Screen Exporter which also now has the ability to adjust image characteristics. Iris Screen Exporter now has improved documentation. The DCS Monitor Setup interface has new helper functionality which aids the creation of the configurations needed by Iris Screen Exporter.
The Control Center now has the ability to transfer control to another profile, as well as improvements to the command line options. Profile Editor also has improvements to the command line.

The new Mirage 2000C profile from @Soyouz2000 exposed bugs and omissions in the interface which have now been addressed and new gauges have been added. Patches for the F-5E RWR & RADAR have been added along with new viewports, and some minor bugs have been resolved in the F-15E functionality.

Developer Notes

Profile Editor, Control Center & Controls

• Iris configuration Helper for DCS to assist with the creation of the configuration files for Iris Screen Exporter

Click to see more information about the Iris Configuration Helper

While not mandatory, it is strongly recommended that the following steps are performed on Profile Editor on the computer running DCS. This reduces the number of manual changes needed to the Iris configurations following the creation of the Iris Partial configurations.

1. The Iris client runs on the remote computer where the Helios profile will be running in the Control Center. The Iris client needs a configuration which tells Iris where to render the viewports it receives over the network.
2. The Iris server runs on the computer where DCS runs. The Iris server needs a configuration which tells Iris where to capture the viewports exported from DCS and also the IP address where to send the captured viewport data.
3. Start by opening the Helios profile which will be run in Control Center on the remote computer
   and selecting "The current Profile will be run on the remote computer running Helios"
   from the dropdown. This will result in a partial Iris configuration being
   created for the remote computer in the folder %userprofile%/Documents/Helios/Iris_Partial_Configs/. It will also create a "compact profile"
   containing only the viewports needed on the DCS (local) computer in the folder %userprofile%/Documents/Helios/Profiles/.
4. Open the compact profile in profile editor, and "Reset Monitors" ensuring that
   "No Scaling" is also specified.
5. A second partial Iris configuration will be
   produced when "The current profile contains viewports for the computer running DCS"
   is selected in the dropdown. This partial configuration is written to the folder %userprofile%/Documents/Helios/Iris_Partial_Configs/. This is used on the DCS (local) computer and
   this will match the Monitor Setup file which is also configured in this interface.

• Profile Chaining as submitted by @finbarlay in #760 which is a new output binding on the Profile interface which allows Control Center to transfer control from one profile to another

• ProfileName Lua global variable made available to Lua Script binding values

• Active Profile Name trigger added to the Helios Information interface
• Allow Control Center to loop round the profiles using the Prev / Next buttons rather than stopping at the first / last
• Add in new darker versions of the standard wheel images.
• Fix for the Inverted Vertical processing for the linear potentiometer.
• Exposed the Inverted Vertical and Inverted Horizontal as checkboxes in the behaviour for the linear potentiometer.

• Adjustable Screen Replicator control added to allow image adjustments to be made to screen captures such as viewports.

• Fix for problem where Viewports incorrectly showed the ability to rotate in Profile Editor Layout. "Simulator Viewport" & "DCS Monitor Setup Script Appender" controls no longer display "Rotation" in the Layout section. #767

• #755 Profile Editor and Control Center command line improvements

1. Help text improved and Usage examples added.
2. Attempt is made to find the profile specified on the command line of the Control Center and Profile editor in the Profile directory and secondary profile directory as taken from the HeliosSettings

F-15E Strike Eagle
