  1. Being from the Milwaukee area, I too bought the scenery package immediately, and overall I really like it. However, I too am not satisfied with the brown colors on the South East part of Milwaukee County. If you look at the South Shore Yacht club on the photo (small marina just NE of KMKE), you can see all the boats on shore with the winter covers on them. So, The area photos from that part of the county were not taken during spring or summer. I hope that this can be resolved somehow as it is annoying to be around Mitchell Field (KMKE) and have all the ground dirt brown instead of the pretty green grass that is actually there!

    My other minor quibbles that I sent in were:

    1) KUES (Waukesha) has the control tower in the wrong location

    2) KUES RWY 18/36 is slightly off center as the painted lines do not quite line up

    3) Mitchell Domes not given a 3-d representation

    That all being said, this was my first scenery package and I absolutely love being able to fly around Milwaukee and have it be so realistic.

  2. Thanks for the quick response! I see that in my list now - I just skipped the AutoPilot Section thinking that wasn't it. I can use the Write() function and set it just as I wished.

    As to your second note, yes that was what I meant. I was wondering if there was a way to create a keystroke with a value as a parameter so that I wasn't limited to just using the pre-defined parameter value (from the FSUIPC keyboard shortcut config dialog). I guess everything that I would want to set in there probably has an offset in the memory block that I can more easily set with the Write() command anyway.

    Thanks again!

  3. Hello.

    I have just started looking at FSUIPC and was trying to programaticly set the heading bug. I saw the entries for VOR1 OBS and VOR2 OBS but no mention of the heading bug. Is that an unlabeled offset somewhere that I can do a FSUIPC_Write() and set the desired heading? Or can I somehow programaticly issue a keyboard command w/ a parameter (the desired heading bug setting) via FSUIPC - I found the control ID for the heading bug: "HEADING_BUG_SET 66042" in the list of control document - but do not know how to programaticly use that.

    Help!

    Thanks!
