Fantastic.

So happy I could cry! My pit project is restarting!

I so know the feeling - a re-design is in the works already.

FPS reduced on single machine

some return from a french tester

FPS hurt if not on network

his results on a single machine : (a good rig + 1 to 4 different screens with two GTX295 cards)

BS alone = one single screen + all graphics options ON : almost 100 fps

BS screen + TV screen + graphics reduced at half : 70 fps

BS screen + TV screen + ABRIS screen + graphics reduced at half : 30 fps

BS screen + TV screen + ABRIS screen + BSVP screen + graphics reduced at half : 15 à 20 fps

network setup is the way

lets hope our french tester does the network test

on the same setup for comparison

Would be useful to know his rig set up.

I am currently re installing everything on my new one, then I will try with the multi monitor configuration, but I am already conviced that I will have to put as much processing as I can on a second PC anyway. Yes, networking is the way to go.

I know that it would be incredibly difficult to do that, but what would be even more fantastic than what BSVP is already doing, is to have ABRIS and SHKVAL as a networked gauge too.

I was thinking the same thing, if it can be accomplished without too much of a performance hit. Between that, and TouchPal (hopefully) being able to run across the LAN eventually, the possibilities are very interesting indeed!

Edit: A HUD 'gauge', especially a networkable one, would be a worthy addition, too!

:music_whistling::D

they are all in the spirit of christmas... :santa: a bit in advance :holloween: !!!

:lol:

wait just....:alien: two more weeks :clown_2:

I leave quickly... !!:D

for FPS

my tester said he gained 10 FPS (from 20-30 FPS he finished at 45 FPS ) with tranferring SIOC on networked pc

Win 7x64 QuadCPU 2x295GPU

wait just....:alien: two more weeks :clown_2:

No need to wait that long, Gadroc's already posted an export.lua in the TouchPal thread which enables BSVP and TouchPal to be used together :). Here's a composite image of my setup:

A great day for cockpit builders :).

Cheers,

merging SIOC + BSVP is OK

merging Touchpal + BSVP is ok

merging SIOC + Touchpal is ok ???

merging SIOC + TouchPAL + BSVP is ? no info ??

How to merge the three ones ?

LuaExportStart() function seems to be problematic about ports reading for the three altogether

work in progress : lua explains (in french) http://www.checksix-forums.com/showpost.php?p=977504&postcount=3

3 possibilities

1st :

someone develop a new server like LOSIOCServer by LeCreole, but for BS

2d :

You can launch two BSVP's on two different PC's because they've both use the same port, so the option is to use different IP's. Changes in script the same as DD mentioned a bit earlier.

idea is :

SIOC stay on main PC

Touchpal AND BSVP on LAN PC

3rd :

Update for TouchPAL and / or BSVP to accept 100% network functionnality without losing key emulations sent to BS

et attendre une mise à jour reseau de touchpal pour ne plus perdre les emulations clavier en reseau

any comment ?

an attempt for a soluce :
