Ok me and Shane were discussing adding waypoints via the manual menu. Its a chore.
I suggested modifying the keybinds to allow the pilot to key in waypoint directly so I looked at the file and this works.
If you want to give it a go feel free. It adds controls to be bound to your keyboard keypad to make entering co-ordinates a doddle.
Key 1 is latitude and Key 6 Longitude as well as 1 & 6. It will make sense when you use it.
Edit: WH version is just for warthog stick users.
Revised version now later in thread.

Re: Replacement Lantirn mod file
these controls for the pod are driving me nuts they just dont do what is advertise. or iam using the modifeir wrong or something. its driving me nuts, as for shanes issue ivenot got a clue whats that about , i just think dcs is very broken since the update and they dont care.

Re: Replacement Lantirn mod file
Shane was sorted last night. We dropped 8 bombs between us and I hit with 4 and Shane hit with 3 so doing pretty well.
I am not sure what the issue is with your set up bud but every one of my controls does exactly what it says on the tin. I can only think there is some conflict on yours or there's a process that needs to be done that you are not doing. Probably through no fault other than not knowing the system.
I will put together a step by step guide to try to walk people through getting the targets locked, bombs dropped and lasing done.

Re: Replacement Lantirn mod file
Revised files that now include the full nav programming binds. You need them if programming nav points via the keyboard.

Re: Replacement Lantirn mod file
No too sure but it seemed to be something not done in the right order or set correctly initially. After it was sorted he was dropping and lasing fine.

The Lantirn CAP file overlaps when I try to enable in ovgme, so can I overwrite the keyboard/default .lua ??

You need to disable the mod in OvGME then overwrite the file in your OvGME install folder and then re enable it. Its a direct replacement for the original one.
