ArturDCS Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Hi, Been banging my head with this for a good while now. Problem is that the gauges(FIPs) freeze (or hang) for some people but not on my PC. So I have made a test version for anyone having FIPs and willing to test it in the A-10C. Requires DCS-BIOS, if you use DCSFlightpanels you are good to go Start the program (DCSFIPS.exe) Click "File" -> "New" -> Choose "A-10C" The gauges will show once you are in your cockpit. Gauges available are HSI and VVI So, anyone NOT getting problems with hanging?? There is a combo/dropdown box there in which you can change the thread priority for the thread writing the images to the FIPs. Any difference which priority is active? You can download it here.

-Hammer- Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Hi ArthurDCS! Great news, that you are still improving your SW :thumbup: It´s one of the Must Have SW with DCS A small Feeedback, tested with latest 2.0 Alpha, 1.5.7 and DCS-BIOS v0.6.0 DCSFlightpanels_x64_2.1.699: FIP is working Performance is improved when CPU Priority is set to Highest Still laggy but its working for me DCSFIPS_x64_1.0.49: Doesn't work :( No FIP Image in the Setup Window of your SW when I try to save a setting, I get an Error message like .... something with HidLibrary.dll..... I took the dll-File from 2.1.699 -> resolved the Error message when saving (still no FIP Picture) The FIPS 1.0.49 doesn't show the HSI or VVI Windows 10 | i7-8700K@5GHz | 2080 Ti | Intel Z370 Chipset | 32GB RAM@1866 MHz | SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 1TB| Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS w.

JaBoG32_Prinzartus Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Hi Arthur! I am starting to create a DCS Flightpanels profile for Mi-8. However, the radio panel does not seem to work. Log file provides the following message. 666 Custom message = [Via SaitekPanel.SetLastException()] System.Exception Failed to find control R863_FREQ for airframe Mi-8MT. Did you switch airframe type for the profile and have existing control(s) for the previous type saved?

ArturDCS Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 Hmm looks like you don't have the most recent DCS-BIOS. Hi Arthur! I am starting to create a DCS Flightpanels profile for Mi-8.

ArturDCS Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 OK. FIP support is removed in the next release of DCSFlightpanels and whether DCSFIPS will ever be anything looks a bit unlikely.. Thanks for your input! Hi ArthurDCS!

JaBoG32_Prinzartus Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 I downloaded v0.60, is there a newer version around?

ArturDCS Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 Yes 0.7 just released. BUT it should have worked previously though. I will test with 0.7 now. Let's switch to the other thread. This one was FIP & Saitek meant only. DCSFlightpanels dcs-insight dcs-bios DCSBIOSBridge BIOSBuddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArturDCS Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 What does the error log say? When you say laggy, how much lag? Can you post a video showing it? Hi ArthurDCS!
