extracting variables from MS FS2002

[majsheridan]

Hi,

I hope someone out there can help me

How do I extract the variables form microsoft flight sim 2002?

I need to extract variables such as altitude, pitch angle, roll angle, heading, etc...

Is there a way of doing this using the FSUIPC.dll????

I'm new to all this so any help would be much appreciated.

Yes, that is what FSUIPC is for. Download the FSUIPC SDK from http://www.schiratti.com/dowson and check the Programmer's Guide and example packs provided.

thanks pete.

I have found a list of the "offsets" so I should now be able to extract the variables using the FS Interrogate program

In the SDK, the FSInterrogate program comes with a file called "FSUIPC.FSI", which is, in itself, a "list of the offsets" -- what's more, it has all the right conversions already built in. You don't need one to use the other.

I don't know where you found your "list of offsets", but the only official one maintained by myself is in the document I call the Programmer's Guide ("FSUIPC for Programmers.doc").

I was going to use the offsets list contained within your FSUIPC for Programmers.doc and enter them manually into a new project within FSInterrogate.....would have taken me ages and would have been very stupid considering this has already been done in the fsuipc.fsi file :oops:

Anyway, I'll have to try it again tonight (i'm at work at the moment)

thanks again for your help :D

Yes :lol: :lol: :lol: .

I'm updating both the list and the FSI file at present, ready for FSUIPC 3.47 released tomorrow. I expect to re-issue the SDK with up to date information by Monday.
