The latest version of FSUIPC7 and the WASM module

[Stinger2k3]

Hi,

I have been using fsuipc7 in conjunction with the Mobiflight WASM module since as soon as they became available for MSFS.

I wish to update FSUIPC to the latest version and have read that there is now a WASM module authored by John Dowson.

If I update to the latest version of FSUIPC does the WASM module now come with it or do I 

have to download it separately?

Once installed, should I delete the Mobiflight wasm module?

Many thanks

It comes with the installer. Just download the latest version and run the installer.

Not if you want to continue using the MobiFlight events via FSUIPC event files. You can do things without the MF WASM, but you would have to stop using the MF events and re-program those assignments to use lvars, hvars or calculator code. This is quite straightforward for most MF events, as they just set lvars or activate hvars, but some are more complex and require compound assignments. For the time being, it may be easier to continue using the MF WASM module.

For the next FSUIPC7 release, I am planning to implement a mechanism that sends calculator code directly from predefined custom events, such as those listed in the MF events.txt file, and to also allow parameterized custom user-defined events. This should remove the need to use the MF WASM module entirely. I will publish details hwen ready.

This new functionality is now available in v7.2.16, just released.
