Yeah, the free version is good enough I think though. It shows the differences here http://lomac.strasoftware.com/tacview-order-en.php
By the way, check you have "allow_object_export = true," in Saved Games\DCS\Config\network.cfg, as this will allow clients to record their own Tacviews. It was already like that in mine, so maybe Tacview does it when it installs or maybe I did it a long time ago and forgot
For Slmod, after unzipping the "net" folder to Saved Games\DCS\Scripts, you have to run a mission (SP works I think but try multiplayer if that doesn't do it) before the Slmod folder is created in Saved Games\DCS\.
The latest version that I linked to, v7.2.63 http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=21...81%7CSLMod , is not by the original author who's stopped working on it, so that might explain some inconsistencies in the manual, although the zip includes a "Slmod v7_2 Manual rev0.pdf", so I imagine that he's written/edited that and it should be up-to-date.
PS. I found there's a bug with the SU-25T training missions where Space doesn't always work to fire the missiles! You could just map a joystick button to Fire in Controls but I use Xpadder to map keyboard commands to joystick buttons and use one button as a modifier to double-up the commands I can use my limited buttons for, so that doesn't really work for me. I might try remapping Fire to something other than Space (if I can find a spare key!) and hopefully that will work.
