Thanks. Oddly enough, there was a post on the iFly board yesterday from Steve Masson that said Jouni was on holiday, but their FSUIPC kit is "being worked on . . . " <g> Again, thanks for your help. It is sincerely appreciated. Chris

Hi Pete, Thanks so much for the quick response. You're a true champion. Yes, it's for the new iFly 737 NGX (for FSX). Do you have details (i.e. whereabouts) about the free program that interfaces with the FSUIPC offsets? Is my script on the right track? I'd also like to eventually use it (same functions, VNAV, LNAV, CMD) for the recent PMDG 737NGX (for FSX). Are the offsets for those options subject to the pending SDK? Thanks a million. Chris

I'm using FSUIPC to assign keystrokes to a couple of GoFlight modules (RP48 and P8). Specifically, I'm using the RP48 to activate various MCP buttons (LNAV, VNAV, etc) that have been assigned keystrokes via the iFly routine (accessed from the FSX "Add-On" drop-down menu). For example, I've assigned SHF-F7 to activate VNAV. As we all know, the LED won't light up when FSUIPC is used for the button assignment. I have a rudimentary understanding of how to make the LED turn on via a LUA script. If I understand it, I could have LUA monitor a hex memory address (offset) and, depending on the content of (0 or 1) that address, LUA will turn on the LED. Using skittles' LUA tutorial, I've come up with what I think the routine might look like: function VNAV (offset, value) -- Turns on LED #1 on to indicate the VNAV button on the MPC has been pushed model = GFRP48 unit = 0 id = 0 if value == 1 then gfd.SetLight(model, unit, id) else gfd.ClearLight(model, unit, id) end end event.offset("????", "??", "VNAV") My question is: how can I establish what the variables for the offset value and string value are? The offset library doesn't have anything for the MCP buttons (VNAV, etc) I've programmed.
