Tacview 1.6.0 official thread

Vyrtuoz:


Tacview 1.6.0 is now available to everyone!


Download: HERE


The long awaited real-time telemetry is here! Use it with DCS World, FSX, Prepar3D, or X-Plane to record and review in real-time a flight in progress. An first draft of the instructor remote control is also available. This tool enables you to control up to four simulators, to assist trainee pilots and reduce their workload.

To prevent cheating, real-time telemetry may be disabled during network sessions depending on the host preferences.

These two new features go naturally well together: Use the real-time telemetry to watch in real time your trainee from outside and inside the cockpit. Help him/her using the remote control to pause its flight simulator and actuate some of its aircraft controls. In the next update, you will be able to directly bind joystick and keyboard to remote control commands.

All Tacview network features are independent and can be combined the way you want. For example, you can combine the real-time telemetry and the online-debriefing to review, with your fellow squadrons leaders, in real-time, a network battle in progress like a red-flag training.

In addition, many updates and fixes are introduced in this version to better enjoy flight review for all your favorite simulators.

While several surprises are on their way for this year, the next major step will be Tacview 2.0. This new version will offer a fully revamped UI, and a will include most of the improvements which have been requested over the years.

Meanwhile several updates are still planned for Tacview 1.6 and maybe 1.7, to offer a smooth transition while waiting for 2.0. For example, you will soon get an integrated static objects editor to easily add navaids to a battlefield and will be able to display analog cockpit instruments to get more intuitive and faster reading while analysing the quality of a flight.

It looks like the port is now configurable globally in the application rather than per instance like I was asking in the beta 1 thread.

If you're running two instances (say release and alpha) on the same server there's no way to set the port per instance. Rather than having this configured in the application can it be moved to the Tacview Plugin in on the Special tab in the DCS settings where it would make more sense?

Vyrtuoz:
In Tacview 1.6.1 you will have the possibility to choose the real-time telemetry and remote control ports. You will also be able to define a password to authorize some people to record real-time telemetry despite an active anti-cheat delay.

I did not have the time yet to add theses option because of DCS World menus limitations.

xaoslaad:
Awesome! Sounds good and I look forward to it.

Foxy:
Hey Vyrtuoz.

I'm a member of a falcon BMS flying community using Tacview for our event's debreifing but for some reasons since 1.6.0 we're experiencing troubles to connect to an online debriefing.
We used a lot this functions in the past with the previous versions of tacview and without any problems.
42673 port is forwarded for the host. We did try several hosts but no luck.

Can you have a look at that function please ?
