[ipc.writeSTR (0x3380, "test") and ipc.writeSW (0x32FA, 0) function]

Hello Pete,

I have a problem with the latest version of FSUIPC (FSUIPC6).
My program worked very well with Prepar3D v4 and FSUIPC5 but now that I have switched to Prepar3D v5, I am forced to switch to FSUIPC6.
The problem is that when I use the ipc.writeSTR (0x3380, "test") and ipc.writeSW (0x32FA, 0) function, my fps drop suddenly when displayed and they don't go back up.
Is this a display optimization problem with FSUIPC6? It worked very well with FSUIPC5 and Prepar3D v4.
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Patrice."

[create a menu like GSX with lua script using FSUIPC ?]

Hello Pete,

I would like to knwow if is it possible to create a menu like GSX with lua script using FSUIPC ?

Thank you in advance.

[Reading GSX datas]

Hello Pete,

I'm trying to read variables of GSX but the values return always 0 (sometimes it's work).

This is my code : GSXNumPassengers = ipc.readLvar("L:FSDT_GSX_NUMPASSENGERS_BOARDING")
                  ipc.display(GSXNumPassengers)

I also test :     GSXNumPassengers = ipc.readLvar("FSDT_GSX_NUMPASSENGERS_BOARDING") but have the same result.
                  ipc.display(GSXNumPassengers)

How can I read GSX variables correctely and that the values are updated ?

Thank you in advance.

[P3D v4 change color text green bar]

Hi,

I am programming an lua program for P3D v4 using FSUIPC and I'd like to know how to change the color of the text I write in the upper green bar.

I'd like to write in white.

This is my actual code :

ipc.writeSTR(0x3380, "/DEPARTURE INFORMATIONS\ " .. "Cruise altitude: " .. cruiseAltInt .. " fts | " .. "Flaps: " .. flapsInt .. " | " .. "Transition altitude: " .. transitionAltInt .. " fts | " .. "V1: " .. v1 .. " kts - " .. "VR: " .. vr .. " kts - " .. "V2: " .. v2 .. " kts")

ipc.writeSW(0x32FA, 0)

Thanks a lot,

P. A.
