yes, I am fully aware of the limitations of the current LUA export system.... its the future stuff I am hoping that will be coded into BS that want to get to play with (and really woulddnt take that long to add into the core game code). If its just the same LUA data we currently have access to but in a new package, we are OH so screwed for external MFDs, screens, dials, Shkval/ABRIS, etc....

looking at the lua code posted on that site, its partially incomplete: at startup, they open a tcp connection... at close, they shutdown that connection. In the "LuaExportAfterNextFrame" routine, they do obtain some data from the game... but do nothing with it (apart from Barometric Altitide -> "socket.try(c:send(string.format("Arn.Resp:15=%.0f:\n",altBar*0.032827))) ") Spitting this data out after every frame gives rapid data update, but also slows the game machine a lot. Or maybe I`ve just eaten/drunk too much this weekend and I cant read LUA code properly right now :)

AFAIK ED are looking at completely recoding the LUA and export data routines for Black Shark, and I am also hoping that they will be generous and let me loose on it after its done... we shall see

Just spotted this thread, bookmarked it all, and am adding stuff to my to-do list :)

You wont be able to get the TV from the A-10/SU-25T to display on a second screen, there just isnt any data export facility for that.

I bet its the network timeouts that are kicking him. Open the config\network\config.lua file in a text editor, and change the gameTimeout and idleTimeout to 600

TouchBuddy MCP Active Module anyone? (Anyone know how many MCP status entries there are in BlackShark?)

If only I had a chance to get my hands on BS to test with TouchBuddy for Active Module support... am sure I could come up with a few ways for them to enable some kind of exportable data that I could use in some way... alas, no replies to my PMs (but I am guessing the devs get hundreds of these kind of requests every week -> "oh please let me join the test team" <- so I can totally understand why I dont get a reply... just a bit frustrating :music_whistling: ). (Note: *NOW* would be a good time for the TouchBuddy users on the test team to speak up :) ) EDIT: Just got a PM back... I`ve been told to sit and wait... and in return I promised not hassle any more :)

yes :) *cough* If only I had a chance to to actually try it though.... <sigh>

open the graphics.cfg file in a text editor and add this line to the bottom: MaxFPS = xx (where xx is the frame rate you want to liit lomac to)

sadly i dont think so....

I cant get the gigantic map file, I think the server has melted :)

oh, thats just cruel and mean :music_whistling: (/me looks at personal collection of early 25T training mission screenshots, with gear up while stationary....)

At 2 minutes 15-16 seconds, the KA-50 flies through the top of a tree... are the trees "transparent" for collision meshes like in Lomac?

Steffan May's race/flight pit :)

GA, I can host... PM me so I can grab a copy directly, and I`ll host it on my server at work

(RWR/SPO version to be done later...hopefully)

MFD came a close second in the poll? mmm.... (Note: this plugin is still WIP)

FighterOps out soon? Woohoo... great stuff, I`ll put that on my list of things to get in the near/mid/far future: - FighterOps - DukeNukem Forever - Playstation3 (in Europe) - Windows Vista

Thats an odd accent for two americans :music_whistling:

I just did procaff to stop the network stutter... i didnt look at any other apps at the time :)

create a shortcut for Hyperlobby, the "target" box, enter: (Edit the procaff location accordingly) CPU affinity is inherited from parent processes... if one program starts a second program, that second program will inherit the first programs CPU affinity. So, when you fire up HL (on CPU 1), and it starts Lockon, the CPU stuff is done automatically, and Lockon will also be running on CPU 1. If you ever want to fire up Lockon by itself (i.e without Hyperlobby), then create a shortcut for Lockon, and in the target box, enter: (Edit the procaff location accordingly) The reason why some people use procaff on dual core machines is that it *CAN* cause problems with online gameplay (stuttering)... not on all machines though.

I get sick watching other tracks/videos when they use a TrackIR, but I wouldnt fly without one :) Its like being car sick... never get sick driving, but sometimes get sick as passenger. I would rather lose my HOTAS than my TIR (or my touchscreen)

what part of "Command line examples" on that page made no sense to you?

I had been flying Lomac for about 6-7 hours (with a solid 3 hour session near the end) when my wife called me and asked for me to go and pick her up in the car. This was at abut 2am Sunday morning, so I was more than just a little tired. Anyway, out of the driveway, drive down the straight road, come to the first roundabout and move my head to see if there is any traffic... but kept my eyes pointing straight forward. Thankfully something waved a big red flag and set off loud alarm bells in the back of my brain, and I stood on the brakes and screeched to a halt on the white line.... <phew> I carried on driving very carefully, and with the car windows wound all the way down to keep me very much awake. My wife thought it was funny.... i guess I would as well, if it wasnt me it happened to :)
