Fair enough. Thanks Pete for the quick response.

All the best,

Hi Pete,

Using FS9, FSUIPC 3.9(z)

Question: I was wondering if I can assign a switch outside of FSUIPC to change the value in the visibility tab "Set Graduated Visibility"? The field I want to control is titled "with this upper visibility (1/100ths mile). Please see image link below as the field is highlighted.

What I want to be able to do is assign a rotary switch within EPIC that will allows me to change this value instead of having to pause the flight and enter the FSUIPC module applet.

Reason being is that during daylight flights I want the max to be in the area of around 60nm but at night increase this significantly as it allows the night lights to "pop" and be more brighter as they are in real life.

Thank you for your time,

Michael

Pete,

Yes sir I did. It was saved in the exact format as the others. I'll keep trying.

Thank you,

Hello Pete,

I have a lua I wrote some time ago that plays various sounds (lua driven) either by switches or programming in EPIC. It has worked flawlessly for several weeks.

Yesterday,I added a new wav file that I assigned in FSUIPC (like many others) to play when a toggle is tripped. No matter what I do the wav file will not play. Just to make sure I was adding it correctly, I went into my lua file and addressed it to play a different wav file which it did successfully.

So I am at a lost why this one particular wav file refuses to play. The file is a vary long wav file as it is intended to play muzak (boarding music) for our home cockpit. The wav file is in the neighborhood of being 15 minutes long. I did check and it was saved in the same format as the other wav's (16 bit stereo etc. etc.). Is there limitations as to what type of wav files can be played?

Any help appreciated,

Michael

Okeedockee. Well thank you for the reply. That is pretty much what I was afraid of.

Thanks again,

Hi Pete,

I am using FS9.

I am now beginning to use some of the older photo scenery in the sim such as MegaCity titles etc.

The problem I have with the photo scenery is blurriness. Even with today's machines I am suffering this as I have multiple display windows operating.

So I did research and was unable to see where I might be able to toggle this during flight.

So my question is:

Would it be possible to read an offset or write a LUA script that allows me to trigger the various levels of autogen in FS9 while

I'm flying rather than pause the sim and change it from the menu?

Much thanks,

Mike Lehkamp

Hi Don, Paul,

The 1= Lua Sndloop did the trick.

The loopers are still acting strangely though.

Many thanks,

Michael

Don, kind of given up at this point of getting all these sounds to work together. Therefore, I have chosen (albeit prob not the right way but it works) to use the Simsound.lua to trigger the "once played" files and to use the Sndloop.lua (which does not work) to someday trigger the looping files. It is absolutely ridiculous the amount of time I've spent trying to get this to work. Esound was perfect. Not sure why they strayed from something that was not broken. Anyway, yes I simplified even more and have posted below what I'm working with including what you requested: enable "Debug/Trace Lua Plugins".

Simsound.lua (This works)Single play sounds

sound.path("C:\\")

if ipcPARAM == 1 then

sound.play("firebell")

elseif ipcPARAM == 2 then

sound.play("safetybrf")

elseif ipcPARAM == 3 then

sound.play("gatebrf")

elseif ipcPARAM == 4 then

sound.play("preparedepart")

elseif ipcPARAM == 5 then

sound.play("clearedland")

elseif ipcPARAM == 6 then

sound.play("crzbrief")

elseif ipcPARAM == 7 then

sound.play("turbulence")

elseif ipcPARAM == 8 then

sound.play("beginappr")

elseif ipcPARAM == 9 then

sound.play("chime")

elseif ipcPARAM == 10 then

sound.play("taxiin")

elseif ipcPARAM == 11 then

sound.play("tcastest")

elseif ipcPARAM == 12 then

sound.play("above10000")

elseif ipcPARAM == 13 then

sound.play("numb1depart")

end

Sndloop.lua (Does not work) Loop sounds

-- sndloop.lua

sound.path("C:\\")

function sndloop(flag)

if ipc.testflag(1) then

ipc.clearflag(1)

if sound.query(refa) == true then

sound.stop(refa)

else

refa = sound.playloop("boarding.wav")

end

elseif ipc.testflag(2) then

ipc.clearflag(2)

if sound.query(refb) == true then

sound.stop(refb)

else

refb = sound.playloop("fueltrk1.wav")

end

else

end

event.flag("sndloop")
