Introduction to MCT

Once you have MCT installed, you will need to add you product code - you can find this location on the about page of MCT. Once you have provided your produce code, MCT will validate online where you can begin planning operations. If you also have an MCT Online subscription, additional features such as MyMCT will also be available.

MCT uses WebView2 to provide the interface, which means a number of typical web browser controls work out of the box inside MCT - for example, holding left Control while scrolling the mouse wheel allows you to modify the scale of the UI elements. Please note, at this time "Undo" operations are not implement - this is planned in the near future. The layout of MCT uses a left menu to split / categorise major sections of the program. Some sections have in-depth help information, where present can be access by pressing the green help button located in the top left corner of the section pane you are in.

MCT Settings
After you've registered MCT, it is advisable to check some configuration settings before you begin planning TacOp's. You can do this by opening MCT Settings from the left - you will then be present with a list of tabbed sections where you can find relevant settings / options. Within the General tab, located at the top is an option to set both your Saved Games folder in addition to your DCS installation folder. MCT will attempt (where possible) to add new locations / modules as they become available automatically using your DCS installation.
