Simpit Software from SDA

I believe you need to use a monitor config for this as you would with Helios.

Ikarus itself doesn't need one because it's just taking data from the game and rendering its own instruments.

What you're trying to do now though requires the actual game output to be displayed directly on the other monitor, requiring the config.

I dont think Im trying to implement anything that is not expected? when I run Ikarus, I need the DATA to show up where it is assigned to show up. Perhaps I am not understanding what the expectations are here?

 

With great respect, does anyone know how to get this data to show up on the Ikarus panel where it needs to? If not, I might be able to figure out what I need to do by referring to a Helios monitor config I have. I was not clear that I had to make one for Ikarus. Thanks for any help. Ikarus is looking very good, cant wait to get it working as needed.

As I have already written, this is of course possible. I do that myself too. But that has nothing to do with Ikarus. That's all DCS.

Ok, I was not aware of that for some reason, I just assumed Ikarus handles that. Now that I understand, I will customize my monitor config to assign those exported positions, many thanks for clarifying that for me sir.

Sorry HJP, I did not see that written in the WIKI sir. Maybe it was information overload? I donr know, but thanks.

I know someone who knows better than me. McMicha. Please ask him.

However, you are already in the area of having to program something. That should be clear to you.

allo all

NOTE: English is not my mother langage

I have reed all 61 pages.

I D/L all files.

Did a lot of RTFM then

It started

Instrumatation works

Thing that do not works:

- Switches: Switche do not works using the mouse. I do not hace a touche screen

-Main panel appear corretly in my second screen (the botom one), but allthe other never show up beside a very short flick when I switchthe profile on. How to make them !appear? Probably the switch à the bottom of the main board that do not works with the mouse.

MFCD seize: I have Cougar MFCD that I "sticked to my 2e screen with double sided tape. Is it possble to to be able to "rezeize them (I know that I will have chices to make with all the other

My setup:

windows 10 64

swithes do not switch..

That looks good. Did you change the *.Ikarus or the *.xml file?

The definition of the switches is stored in the xml - file. Is that empty?

I have successfully located the X & Y coordinates for the 'ODU', and confirmed it does EXPORT just fine, but it will not project through the Black Boxes? I can not see them on the panel?Is there any transparency setting I need to review? Thanks,

this is right out of the zip file. I could try to do a little vido for you on private chanal on youtube if it can make it easier. to diagnostick

Thanks for your time

Nice, Fakum. Change the file AV8BNA_Background.png. Make it in this area transparent. O.k. I will do it with the next update.

How should a video help there? It works for me. I miss every idea now. The instruments work, but not the switches! That can not be.

Videos are to show you my setup then the symptomes.

maybe this is me missing some config

here it is. I will remove it when my problem will be fix, it it can be fix.

if not, I will delete it anyway

Thanks again for your time

Ray

You use the switches wrong. There are click / touch zones. You have to click this.

I can open the file in 'PAINT', but I do not know how to make it transparent? I could not figure a way to do it viewing its properties either. If you can tell me how to do it, I will learn something for future. Thanks

well

I use to call that kind of bug a "code 18"

because the problem is 18 inches away from the screen...

many thanks.

I will make some testing with that A-10C

I will do some modifications so it fit immy screen dimentionsand Cougar MFCD

Also If I find any glitch or bugs should I contact you here or directly ?

So far only the IFCC does not seem to send info to DCS correction. if the Ikarius switvh in at the

"on" position, if I move it to "test"position, DCS receive a "OFF" position.

Also, I find that if you use directly a switch in DCS, Ikarius does not follow.

Over all

GREAT JOB !!!

I was using Helios for years, Now I just need to check it my Clan setting is compatible like with Universal radio. I keep you posted

Many thanks agan

Ray

Ray, please post it here. That could help others too.

I think that does not work with "Paint". I will change the background for you today.

Ray, please post it here. That could help others too.

I will be glad to do so.

I just need to do more RTFM and testing

Thanks Again

Edit

working with : https://www.getpaint.net/index.html

that's the problem. Thank you for clarifying that.

I use an old free version of Photoshop or Affinity. Affinty is so good. The best part is, it costs almost nothing. But it's really cool ...

https://affinity.serif.com/de/

using the A-10C

so far so good

I had to réinstall Universal Radio

I had to adapt from helios but it is ok

I remove all HOTAS switches to make sure theuir is no problemes between the HOTAS and Icarius

same with Cougar MFCD

also modify open windows in A10CBackGround to fix the Cougar MFCD

IFCC does not seem to send info to DCS correction. if the Ikarius switvh in at the

"on" position, if I move it to "test"position, DCS receive a "OFF" position.

the bottom switch farder right ( touchpanel) does not seem to do anything

Things missing :

- close/open cocpit,

- activate air

Try gimp - http://www.gimp.org - its free, and does at least 80% of what photoshop does. There is a fair amount of tips for it online - doco and youtube videos on how to do stuff.
