  1. Hi There, I have the following in my FSUIPC7.ini: [LuaFiles] 1=ipcready 2=LaapATCv2.1 3=fuel_select 4=Announcements\callouts [Auto] 1=lua LaapATCv2.1 2=lua Announcements\callouts and there are two issues: #4 in [LuaFiles] does not show up when in FSUIPC7 Assignments/Keypresses and using the dropdown to assign a keystroke to start that lua file, presumably it doesn't like the subfolder, however it does start the same script in the [Auto] section Complimenting the above I was testing this and have found that if I restart FSUIPC7 when I am in "Ready To Fly" mode, none of the [Auto] lua scripts will start. I have attached two FSUIPC7.log files, one where I start FSUIPC at the menu before you go to the plane and the other when in Ready to Fly mode. Cheers, Rick fs7-ReadyToFly.txt fs7-InMenu.txt
  2. Hi, I have the following in my script: event.offset(0x0842,"SW","climbp") -- vertical speed change - 30801 event.offset(0x0842,"SW","climbt") -- vertical speed change - 7727 event.offset(0x0842,"SW","climbj") -- vertical speed change - 5505 event.offset(0x0842,"SW","cruisep") -- vertical speed change - 4260 event.offset(0x0842,"SW","cruiset") -- vertical speed change - 3499 event.offset(0x0842,"SW","cruisej") -- vertical speed change - 2972 event.offset(0x0574,"SD","descentp") -- altitude change - 1976 event.offset(0x0574,"SD","descentt") -- altitude change - 641 event.offset(0x0574,"SD","descentj") -- altitude change - 567 event.offset(0x0574,"SD","finalp") -- altitude change - 515 event.offset(0x0574,"SD","finalt") -- altitude change - 487 event.offset(0x0574,"SD","finalj") -- altitude change - 454 You can see they are 2 sets of Offsets, Each set has the same Offset that is called 6 times when it gets triggers. At ther end of each line is the number of times each event was called during a flight of just over 3 hours. Is it normal for there to be such a huge difference between the times each event is called? I guess I was expecting them to be called equally. The issue I am having is when the plane is descending at 4000fpm there are 12 events getting called in rapid succession. One of the functions (descentj) has a flag that is set when the altitude gets below 27,000 feet. What I found was that was not set until the plane was at around 6,000 feet and it seems it's because that function is not called often enough to be triggered any earlier. I am thinking I will have to change the script to have 2 events and 2 functions and move the other functions into one of those 2. Cheers - Rick
  3. Ok, no worries - thanks for taking the time to look into this 🙂
  4. sound.play("paxsign.wav",0,100) does work Tried with -100 and it does only play when FSUIPC has focus and mutes when it looses focus, in the manul it says refers to "FS" having focus, does that measn FSUIPC and not Flight Simulator?
  5. sound.play("paxsign.wav",0,-100) I believce this will play the sound in the background, but what happens is nothing is played?
  6. So I have found out 🙂 No Problems, thanks for your speedy reply John!
  7. Hi, when using sound.play, is there a way to stop ALL sounds that have been started using this command without specifing a "ref" ? Cheers
  8. Hey Pete, I know in the debug logging you can have certain offsets displays in the FSX windows title bar, but can you do the same from within LUA code? Reason being that I want to be able to see my lua is still running without having a window open or similar until needed Thanks in advance
  9. Hi, I'd like to use my old(ish) tablet as a switch panel, similar to the example at the bottom of the WideFS manual, Is there some way I would be able to view/operate the WideFS screen from my Android tablet.. All I can think of is some kind of remote desktop from tablet to PC running WideFS and view/operate that way, but thats a bit clunky.. Looks like some of the "Instructor Station" software has some of what I want, but need to have a way of setting custom controls/macros Any ideas?
  10. Hi, Ive started to create a new airport and have put the basic on it, just one runway with the airways on it.. When I start Tower and select the runway I get this error in the log Internal map error, no runway for approach line! Fatal error - no Approach lines found for selected runways!! Now I know that taxiways have to be connected with black dots etc, but I can't see anything like this for airways, so how do you fix this error?
  11. Thanks Pete, that is EXACTLY what I wanted, just a push in the right direction, I'll have a stab at it
  12. I have just purchased the Saitek Multi Flight Panel, and if you adjust the AP Altitude it sends the following commands to FSX: My query is, to adjust altitude or heading by a vast amount it requires twsiting the knob round and round for some time (eg. going from heading of 3 to 183 or altitude of 4500 to FL30) Is there some way of using FSUIPC to trap these commands and either apply acceleration or something similar to enabled fast changes?
