Need more working Offsets

[Chrisoft-Dev]

Hi Pete :)

Well, I'm updating my cockpit for FSX.

So, there are some new features in FSX like :

- CABIN_NO_SMOKING_ALERT_SWITCH_TOGGLE

- CABIN_SEATBELTS_ALERT_SWITCH_TOGGLE

- HYDRAULIC_SWITCH_TOGGLE

- CROSS_FEED_TOGGLE

Now, the Offset 3367 (Aircraft Exit) doesn't work in FSX.

I need the new Offsets of FSUIPC to obtain these informations if possible.

Thanks! Regards,

Chris.

- CABIN_NO_SMOKING_ALERT_SWITCH_TOGGLE

- CABIN_SEATBELTS_ALERT_SWITCH_TOGGLE

- HYDRAULIC_SWITCH_TOGGLE

- CROSS_FEED_TOGGLE

These are new FS controls, fully supported through FSUIPC4 (e.g. via the button and key assignments, or by sending the controls via offset 3110.

If you men to read the state of the switches, I'll just check to see if they are among the new ones supplied by Simconnect ...

.... right -- I can obtain the Hydraulic, Smoking and SeatBelt settings. I'll add them soon, maybe in the next build if I find time.

The cross feed is actually currently supported already (as it always has been) via the fuel selector switches -- 3880 etc (one for each engine), but I see there's a separate single indication too now. I'll add that but it would be interesting to find out how that relates to the othershmmm.

Now, the Offset 3367 (Aircraft Exit) doesn't work in FSX.

It should do -- are you meaning when reading or when writing? It's more sophisticated than in FS2004 as it should be showing separate bits for each exit (I cater for exits 1-8 but I think FSX only deals with 1-4). Please can you clarify what you are observing, with IPC read/write logging to show?

Well, I mean all these offsets to able to read informations.

Okay, thanks :)

Okay. Also, I'll look deeply in these in each engine.

First time, I read this offset 3367 contains value 0.

When, I press toggle_aircraft_exit, the main doors are opened.

Then, I re-read this offset again, contains always value 0.

I didn't try to write this offset. I'll try it if possible.

Thank you for all responses :)
