I have made some little LUA and MACRO files for different aircrafts the last weeks and d'like to share them here.

-- update 05th Aug 2010

reworked cold&dark LUA code so that you get a question at the beginning if you want to go cold and dark

-- update 19th Feb 2010:

Key commands:

One new item is the possibility to start the engines now via a button.

A feature is, that the feathering of the selected engine is included!

Of course you have to select an engine before to let them start (via my LUA or by "hand")

added gust locks, prop sync switch

cold and dark file: completely reworked!

-- update 15th Feb 2010: AS I have learned a little about LUA the last months, I have reworked my original LUA code and have it simplified a lot. Also I added some commands, too (see parameter list).

So, everybody who is interested in this new code have to reassign his parameternumbers!

The Macro and the LUA from Richard Cooke below is unchanged!

--

LUA commands

To get acces to the single commands you have to do the following:

1) copy the code below

2) insert it into an empty editor or Notepad file and save it as e.g. J41.LUA

3) open FSUIPC menu and choose LUA J41 from the drop down

4) insert different parameter numbers depending on the action you want (green field)

J41 cold and dark LUA

Assign this LUA to a key or button.

Pressing this button will set the J41 to cold and dark

(don't use it during flight :lol: )

This cold and dark file was initially from William Ruppel, reworked by me and also with codes from Tom Risager, and Richard Cooke

(A worldwide project - far better then airbus isn't it :D )

(many thanks for this)

--------------

I first posted this on the PMDG/Turboprops forum. Guenter suggested I post it here as well - so here goes.

Inspired by the excellent work of Guenter Steiner I have written another Lua file for the PMDG J41. See Guenter's post here for instructions on how to use this. (Of course it only works with a registered copy of FSUIPC)

<!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://forums.simflight.com/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=78339">viewtopic.php?f=54&t=78339</a><!-- l -->

You need to call this something different to Guenter's file. I called mine J41_Add.lua. It should give you the following commands:

1 Left Fuel Pump

2 Right Fuel Pump

3 Ground Power

4 Warning Panel mute

5 Left Air Cabin Flow*

6 Right Air Cabin Flow*

7 Start Master Knob Left

8 Start Master Knob Right

9 Nav Lights

10 Nav/Tail Flood lights

11Seat Belt Signs

12 No Smoking Signs

13 Left Windshield Anti Ice

14 Right Windshield Anti Ice

15 Left Air Data Anti Ice

16 Right Air Data Anti Ice

17 DC Power Knob up

18 DC Power knob down

19 Prop Synchro Knob

20 CCT Auto Cycle Switch

*I programmed the cabin air switches so they only work if they are set to 5 or off so they toggle between these two values.

Here is the lua file

I hope this helps you to get more "hardware" control of the brilliant J41.

All files work at my system with latest FSUIPC version.

no guarantee that they will work for you (but they should, I'm sure - tested only at FSX Acceleration)

Do any codings at your own risk and just do things if you know what you do...

Be patient that I could not support any question. Please inform yourself how to handle MACROS and LUA files and the power of FSUIPC.

Have fun!

HI guenseli

I've tried to load the LUA files as you described in your last message

but I can't find the file LUAj41 in the list of lua on right screen listin FSPUIC

I followed point by point your procedure with no results :(

I seems this list is already preloaded...

Logically, to be red, this file (lua j41) must be in modules folder? Isn't right?

but no way to find it in that right screen in FSUIPC.(page button and switches)

Could you help me please?

It will be so useful to only push a joystick button to load a dark and cold situation

for the excellent J41!!!

Thanks a lot by advance to take some time for me

Hope my message request is clear

sorry for my bad english :?

no need to sorry about your english, mine isn't better :D

Have you pressed "relaod buttons" or/and "reload keys" in FSUIPC menu after making and saving a LUA file into modules folder?

Have you scrolled down to the section were the LUA files begin in FSUIPC key/button assigning pull down menu?

A file called example.lua is find as "LUA Example" in FSUIPC pull down menu...

Well...just my luck :cry:

I can't seem to get this to work. I own the PMDG JS4100. I have an official FSUIPC v 4.53(which is the latest). I use the VRinsight MCP-Combi with SerialFP2 v2.520 and a Goflight T8.

I can get the HDG, ALT bugs working, but none of the items listed here react in the SIM.

I used Richard Cooke's and your LUA an MACRO and linked it to my FSUIPC but nothing works.

Hi,

I don't understand your post, sorry...

Does nothing work, no LUA, no Macro?

then you have an other, essential problem, which I don't know.

Just for the LUA you inserted above:

in this line:

if ipcPARAM == 19 then

is maybe an error. I would change it to

elseif ipcPARAM == 19 then

I'm not sure if it helps, but try it....

If just one single point is wrong in the LUA file, then the whole script is not working!!!

If just one single point is wrong in the LUA file, then the whole script is not working!!!

Yes, because it is compiled on loading, not interpreted line-by-line, and the compiler stops on the first error.

Best advice is -- always check the Log file, because that is where Lua error reports will be found. If you select Lua logging they will go to a separate Lua log file for each Lua program. Otherwise they'll be put into the FSUIPC log.

For FSX you can run in Windowed mode with the FSUIPC4 log console visible and see the results immediately on screen.

Regards

Pete

sorry that i didn't react sooner...my pc crashed so i'm re-installing everything which will take some time. I'll report back later....maybe the LUA will work at once then :D

well guenseli you seems to know a lot of this lua programing but what about an tutorial on youtube as i know there is some ho needs a visual wiev on how to get startet as reading is good but not always the best way as there should just a littel stone on the road and it dosent work.

Hi Lars,

A "no" to both :lol:

I don't know very much about LUA programming (Pete can confirm this :wink: ) I just gather the Lua variables and put them together for my own needs. And I have already written a little tutorial wich can be found here in this forum as sticky.

I get questions from time to time about that and I always find out that people haven't read this tutorial, but after that they don't have questions any more...

Second point is that I don't know how to make a youtube tutorial...

Is there a site for downloading these updated versions? I'm not sure exactly which files I should copy from the forum post. I do not want to risk ruining the great cold and dark file that is presently in my sim.

Thanks

No, theres no other site...

The versions here in the first thread are updated...

But just copy and paste it from here into a new editior file and give it an other name...e.g. "ColdDark2.LUA"

So, you can use both files if you want.... if it makes sense for you

hello, i love the JS411 too ...

some questions about your post. i am not sure that i understand all correct.

1.) in wich folder shout i save the J41.LUA file?

2.) and the code in part 1 + macro + cold and dark?

thanks for helping me ... Jan

####

To get acces to the single commands you have to do the following:

1) copy the code below

2) insert it into an empty editor or wordpad file and save it as e.g. J41.LUA

3) open FSUIPC menu and choose LUA J41 from the drop down

4) insert different parameter numbers depending on the action you want (green field)

1.) in wich folder shout i save the J41.LUA file?

2.) and the code in part 1 + macro + cold and dark?
