  1. Hi, I am just wondering if anybody knows what values affect the egt value in the aircraft config file? eg. the temperature at certain N1/N2 values, temperature at startup etc... Any help would be very appreciated. Regards Chris
  2. Hi, I am writing a little app to let me operate and view gauges using FSUIPC in VB2008. The problem I have is that for example, if N1 >70%, the EGT will drop by about 50degrees. I have written the code and it works but the temperature drop on the gauges is too quick, it goes from one value, straight to the modified value. My question is therefore, is there a way to make the transition smooth so the gauge needle moves down slowly rather than instant? Thanks in advance, Chris
  3. Hi mate, many thanks for your help. I will let you know how I go on. Once again many thanks the sim world needs people like you. Regards Chris
  4. Hi, many thanks for your swift reply, I am just wondering how the code is written in VB to make this happen? I am very novice at this! Thanks in advance, Chris
  5. Hi, I`m wondering if anybody can help me with what is probably an easy fix. I want to write the command to load a saved flight from within a visual basic instructors station I am writing. Whener I give it a value to load I get a VB exception. eg.. Dim flight As Offset(Of Short) = New FSUIPC.Offset(Of Short)(&3F00, True) Private Sub btnload_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnload.Click flight.value = savedflight1.flt End Sub Any help would be appreciated, I am but a novice at this :) Thankyou in advance
  6. Hi, I understand there is an option to adjust both traffic density and toggle in the assign key/button press menu, but i`m wondering if there is an fsuipc offset that I can use from a networked machine, running my own development of instructor station software? Thanks in advance Chris
  7. Hi, thanks for your quick response and helpful information. I am struggling though (being new to programming) to write the byte value as (4). I basically need to write a (4) from offset 0x310A .2 (bit 2). Could you possibly help wih this matter, thanks again and regards Chris.
  8. Hi, I am new to this programming game but what the hell, i`ll give it a try :) I have figured out the basics, but I want to write to offset ( 310A .2) Rudder disconnect. It should write (4) to this offset to disable it via a check box, and then repeat every 9 seconds until the check has been taken out of the check box. Thanks for your help this is what I have so far : Dim RudderDisable As Offset(Of BitArray) = New FSUIPC.Offset(Of BitArray)(&H310A, 1) Private Sub Rudder_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Rudder.CheckedChanged Me.RudderDisable.Value(2) = IIf(Me.Rudder.Checked, 1, 0) End Sub I do have other stuff in between on a timer which works fine, it`s just that every time I write it uses a 1 and I can`t get it to write 4.
  9. Hi, I am trying to write a LUA module to basically disconnect the rudder when a switch selection is made. I have never written in LUA before (or any other development software) and having read the notes that came with FSUIPC I was a little confused. If somebody could offer there assistance I would be eternally grateful. When the switch is pressed offset 0x310A gives an active (I think its a 1(Rudder steering inactive)), I would then like this offset to repeat setting 1every 9 seconds, until the switch is then released to stop the process and go back to 0 (Rudder steering active). The reason I want this repeating every 9 seconds, is that the command resets itself every 10-12 seconds. Thankyou in advance for any help you can offer Chris
  10. Peter, thankyou for your quick reply I will definately look into that programming language and see what I can develop. The reason I ask about the push button selection is that I am modelling a Jaguar Simulator, It has a selection on the control grip that enables "Nosewheel disconnect", It basically allows the pilot to carry out all of the control surface functionals without the nosewheel moving. I understand that the nosewheel doesn`t move when the aircraft is stationary, but there is a indication in the control panel when it is on/off, and I would like to model a nosewheel steering failure as the aircraft is moving. Thankyou once again Chris
  11. Hi Peter, I wonder if you could help with a little problem I`m having, I basically want to disable the rudder axis using an FSUIPC offset if possible rather than an option within the FS9 controls menu. I would like it to be disabled/enabled by a switch press but the only option I have found via an offset (which I don`t have on me for reference right now!), disables the rudder axis but 10 seconds later re-enables it without any input. Is there a way to take this time limit off? I hope you can shed some light on this matter. Just to clarify I want to disable the axis for failure simulation. Regards and well done for an excellent piece of software Chris
