H-J-P Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I'm missing something and I'm not sure what. For instance, I modified the A10C.ikarus profile for placement on my screen, removed alot of buttons, lamps, etc... Ran it and all works great, actually very impressed. But then I decided to put back the whiskey compass. I added a record and entered it exactly as it was but it doesnt get game play feedback. So I tested further, I deleted and readded the AOA and now it is dead. I cannot locate anywhere any binding info. Am I missing something? Strange. Have you ever tried to restart Ikarus?

H-J-P Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Thanks for that. Looks working. I just don't like the "gray shadow". Can you email me instructions how you want to get my changes? Gray shadow? If you mean the gray background, I have already made darker. You need Photoshop or something like that. In the folder "Background" you will find the file "F5E_FrontPanelDark.PNG".

Regnad517 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Could you give me your Ikarus file? Sure thing. And here is exactly what I've done and can reproduce it everytime, have tried multiple times. I start with the A10C profile that prebuilt, I remove the panels and gauges I am not using, then set proper x and y cords for my setup. Then lets say for instance, I decide I want to add back the Whiskey Compass, when I do all gauges work except the whiskey compass. It happens with all gauges as well, not just whiskey compass, so if I delete the AOA and re-add it, then AOA stops working. The example I am uploading here, all work but the Whiskey Compass. Would love to know what I am doing wrong, thanks for looking. So I just fixed it, I opened the Ikarus file in Notepad+ and noticed it didnt put back the Functions for Compass so I copied the functions from the original, changed the Device ID and all is good in the universe again. Tested with AOA as well and same issue. ThanksA-10C.zip Edited March 21, 2018 by Regnad517 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danvac Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I have now installed the shadow for most instruments. That makes the more plasitic. It does not make sense. I know that I have sun on right side and when I look at instrumets I see shadow from left...can you make master switch off for shadows? Also this line is not correct: https://github.com/H-J-P/Ikarus_Source/blob/436993743e3241a4edf7256f3a079d8640c3c11b/Ikarus/Ikarus/Gauges/F5E/F5E-ASI-2.xaml.cs#L143 It should be: rtASIMach.Angle = (- rtMach.Angle) + rtASI.Angle; and I am still not sure if it is fixed correctly. I see it misbehave, but I did not checked if I was running correct version at that time. https://github.com/danvac/Ikarus_Source/blob/76299deb07859895ec7a3ae42eab82c9a653d4c9/Ikarus/Ikarus/Gauges/F5E/F5E-ASI-2.xaml.cs#L154 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-J-P Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Now I understood you about the shadows. A master switch / checkbox could help. Or we only fly at night ;-) You get the master checkbox.

H-J-P Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Regnad517, I think there is a misunderstanding here. After redefining the instrument, you must also re-enter the instrument functions. For this you mark the instrument and then switch to the tab "Instrumentfunctions". Did you try that?

Regnad517 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Yeah as I said at end of my earlier post, I see the functions were missing. I really haven't seen an "easy" way to put the functions back without knowing the ID and settings in advance but have been able to just copy settings and get it all working.

With my version it works without problems with your file. That should be solved. Which Ikarus version do you use? Backup your changes. Not that to be overwritten.

Naj-Treg Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Thank you for pointing this tool out. I hadn't even heard that one. Unfortunately there is no official download page. But I hope Strike277 will find its coordinates.

H-J-P Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Can you add gauge for Pitch Trim Indicator? Due to position in cockpit above ADI it is hardly visible. (screenshot attached) -- Pitch Trim Indicator Pitch_Trim = CreateGauge() Pitch_Trim.arg_number = 52 Pitch_Trim.input = {-10.0, 0.0, 1.0} Pitch_Trim.output = {1.0, 0.0, -0.1} Pitch_Trim.controller = controllers.PitchTrim Is built in but not yet tested with DCS.

Regnad517 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 So I have noticed a bit of a lag as flight goes on so I am curious about putting Ikarus on a LAN machine and running it from its own dedicated computer. I am curious though as to how to export the RWR and MFCD viewports I will need for the A10C? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMicha Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Hello Regnad517, our DCS ExportScript cannot export screens like MFCD or RWR and transfer them via network. These displays are displayed via the DCS suitable vieweports. The developers of UltraMFCD wanted to make their program network-compatible, maybe this will be something.

Thermal Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I got a touchscreen today, and started looking around at the various options, and came across Ikarus - and then installed it any played around with it for a bit.
