[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

Thank you,

 

I have forgotten 2.4 pdf doc.

 

For airports databases, I havn't seen this sample. I have try it npw and it works fine !

 

For AI traffic I will have a look

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

* Added new contructor to FsLatLonPoint to accept Lat and Lon in DecimalDegrees : tested and Ok

* Added new FsAltitide class to convert between Feet, Metres and FS Altitude Units : tested and Ok in meters

* Added FSUIPCConnection.MoveAircraft() method. This will move the plane to the specified location,   an optionally set a new Altitiude, Speed, Pitch and Bank is specified : tested and Ok

All is perfect :-)

 

When you will have time, can you give us samples for AirportsDatabase and AITraffic and AiPlaneInfo.

 

Thank you very much for your job !!!!

 

 

[Problem getting Zulu Date & Time]

Thank you, it works perfecly

[Problem getting Zulu Date & Time]

Hi Paul,

I have a problem with Zulu Time and Local Time :

I choose an airport on US, (KVPS for example)

Local Time = 30 may 2017 18:59:30

Zulu Time = 30 may 2017 23:59:30

and have a timer to update values each second. All is ok but when Zulu Time = 31 may 2017 00:00:01, date for Local Time is now =31 may 2017 19:00:01. For Local Time date must be 30 may and not 31 may.

Here is the code :
       

private Offset<byte[]> fsLocalDateTime = new Offset<byte[]>(0x0238, 10);
        private Offset<byte[]> fsZuluDateTime = new Offset<byte[]>(0x023B, 10);

        private Offset<byte> zmin = new Offset<byte>(0x23c);
        private Offset<byte> zhour = new Offset<byte>(0x23b);
        private Offset<byte> second = new Offset<byte>(0x23a);


        private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            // Process the default group
            try
            {
                FSUIPCConnection.Process();

                // get local Time
                short year = BitConverter.ToInt16(fsLocalDateTime.Value, 8);
                DateTime fsTime = new DateTime(year, 1, 1, fsLocalDateTime.Value[0], fsLocalDateTime.Value[1], fsLocalDateTime.Value[2]);
                short dayNo = BitConverter.ToInt16(fsLocalDateTime.Value, 6);
                fsTime = fsTime.Add(new TimeSpan(dayNo - 1, 0, 0, 0));
                lblLocalTime.Text = (fsTime.ToString("F", CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("fr-FR")));

                // get Zulu Time
                short year2 = BitConverter.ToInt16(fsZuluDateTime.Value, 5);
                DateTime fsZuluTime = new DateTime(year2, 1, 1, zhour.Value, zmin.Value, second.Value);
                short zuludayNo = BitConverter.ToInt16(fsZuluDateTime.Value, 6);
                fsZuluTime = fsZuluTime.Add(new TimeSpan(dayNo - 1, 0, 0, 0));
                lblZuluTime.Text = (fsZuluTime.ToString("F", CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("fr-FR")));

            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Error : " + ex.Message);
            }

       }

 

Thank you for your help.

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

Paul,

Thank you very much. You are the best !

I will test this release sunday.

 

Have a good day.

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

Thank You Paul.

Do you think that you will add this possibility or not because not work with FS9 ?

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

OK, thank you very much, Paul.

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

Paul,

ID can be user aircraft ID or AI Aircraft ID. If there is a problem with AI, just for user aircraft will be ok.

Thanks.

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

Hi Paul,

Do you think that it is possible to add this method ?

MoveAircraftTo( Aircraft_ID, Lat (decimal degrees), Lon (decimal degrees), Alt (meters),  Heading (degrees), With_Slew_Mode (boolean default is true))

Thank you.

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

Paul,

Don't worry. I just give suggestions to have better view of your fantastic job. I have time and you have time. We will be patient and we can use all the functions when they will be documented. Or we will ask you help and we know you are there for us.

Thank you again and I hope I havn't hurte you with my post

[fsuipcclient for p3d 64bit]

Hi Paul,

Can you update changelog with the new features included between RC2 and RC6 version ?

Can you open your own post for 3.0 version and put the changelog and the last release of 3.0 RCx version ?

Thank you for help and your excellent DLL.

[MakeRwys : possibility to choose only one file]

Pete,

 

I don't need all other files and it will take less time to generate only the wanted file.

 

If there is a problem, don't modify this.

 

Thank you.

[MakeRwys : possibility to choose only one file]

Hi Pete,

 

I have just discovered MakeRwys. Thank you again for this simple and powerfull tool !

 

I wanted to know if it is possible to choose to "export" only one file : runways.xml for example like this :

Thank you.

[Cant read nearest icao in c#]

OK.

 

Thank you Pete.

[Cant read nearest icao in c#]

Hi Paul,

 

Is there a way to have the nearest airport from given coordinates ?

 

private Offset<string> nearestICAO = new Offset<string>(0x0658, 4);

...

double Lat = 48.4

double Lon = -4.4

 

private string NearestAirpot(Lat, Lon)

{

...

FSUIPCConnection.Process();
...

return this.nearestICAO.Value;  // "LFRB"

}

 

Thank you for your help !

[Send Control to a Simobject]

Thank you Paul for all these intersting informations.

 

Can you confirm this sample ?

 

private Offset<int> id = new Offset<int>(0x2904);

private Offset<int> ctrl = new Offset<int>(0x2908);

private Offset<int> val = new Offset<int>(0x2900);

 

id.value = 637;   // FSX ID od my Simobject

ctrl.value = 66054; // STOBES_SET for example

val.value = 1;   // Set to 1 for true

FSUIPCConnection.Process();

 

 I will give you results if it's Ok.

Thank you again.

[Send Control to a Simobject]

Hi Paul,

 

I wanted to know if it is possible to send controls via Offset 0x3110 to a none user Simobject (Ground or Misc or Airplane).

I have the ID the Simobject.

 

How can I specify the ID to use in :

sendControl.Value = ACTION_TO_DO;

FSUIPCConnection.Process();

 

 

Thank you for your help.

[Create AI for helicopter]

Hi,

 

I want to create AI for helicopter. You can't do this with simconnect.

Do you think there is a possibility to do this with FSUIPC ?

 

1. Create helicopter : no problem

2. create waypoints to follow : no problem

3. Take off : ?

4. Reach the speed and the altitude : ?

5. Go to the next waypoint : if 3 and 4 is possible, it is not a problem

6. Take on at the last waypoint : if 3 and 4 is possible, it is not a problem

 

Thank you for your help.
