Hi, inspired by the great work of this person https://github.com/vradarserver/cduhub/blob/main/library/mcdu-dotnet/README.md I'm working on something. At the moment, it's a quick and *very* dirty code with hardcoded folder name, etc .. started few hours ago. Based on things i made for the cockpit master CDU737 and DCSFlightPanel. I've not decided yet if i stay in DCSFlightPanels and tries to use this library ( Or the opposite , bring some DCSBios things into a fork of this https://github.com/vradarserver/cduhub/tree/main , dedicated to DCS modules , which my example is coming from ) But it's a good start i think. Tried with A320 Mcdu , but i also can try with the 777 ( think it's just Pid & vid stuff ) .

if it's the same logic as the Cockpitmaster CDU, you need to send data to device, in a specific way to display things on the screen. I reversed it to make mine work with a10c ( and some more modules ) and dcsbios ( in dcsflight panel). ( made a wiki to explain https://github.com/landre-cerp/cdu737-lib/wiki ) Winwing cdu on it's way, i'll give it a try, but the Game peripheral display Tab in the Simapp pro, the possibility to change fonts , and hint on pixel position makes me think it could be really different.

same, that long and this often degraded is quite new (as far as we noticed) . But thanks for the detailed explaination ThGhost !

Thanks ! Is this "normal behaviour" or a way to make it work in the game ?

Hi, we ( our team ) find CBU105 alignment very, very long ( 30+ mins lately) to get ready, and sometimes in fly they became DEG again. ( degraded i suppose ) .Any explanation on this behaviour, besides bug ?

Hi Biga42. It's all explained in the doc. You have to read text before in each chapter, explaining how to uses charts. It's easier if you have the chart printed while reading the text. I prefer how they did in UH-1H charts where examples are displayed next to the chart ( but it reduces the chart size ) . Then on the top of each chart you have a small "map" with arrows to show you how to read things. Some are harder concept ( single engine blablabla .. ). The one with Stripes on the border are emergency ones ( if i'm correct) . i'm working on a calculator to help prepare missions in a more "realistic" way ( providing DCS A10CII is close enough to the charts i'm using )

This could be the start of a project Actually I'm working on a performance calculator for The A10 and , once the "mandatory stuff" is done, i may add some "airport" database management to help enter Runway length , heading , etc. Something like: enter icao code , Paste Metar, choose RW , intersection, etc.. . Right now it's just an input field to enter TORA ( which is fine too )

HI minsky. Congratulation for this amazing work . As i asked in my comment on the userfiles page : i'm interested in getting structured data about DCS airport (mainly runways , length etc... ) .Is this something you have maintained to be able to format keenboards ? if so , would you share it ?

This happens after the last update ? i removed the Caucasus Folder, then repaired , Same . 2022-12-22 13:29:11.503 INFO Dispatcher (Main): Terrain theatre Caucasus 2022-12-22 13:29:11.504 INFO Dispatcher (Main): load terrain from ./Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua 2022-12-22 13:29:11.517 ERROR SECURITYCONTROL (Main): failed to decode mods/terrains/caucasus/terrain.cfg.lua.pak.crypt 2022-12-22 13:29:11.517 ERROR SECURITYCONTROL (Main): Failed to load mods/terrains/caucasus/terrain.cfg.lua.pak.crypt 2022-12-22 13:29:11.518 INFO TERRAIN (Main): lSystem::load(./Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua) 2022-12-22 13:29:11.518 INFO TERRAIN (Main): lSystem::openSession(./Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua) 2022-12-22 13:29:11.518 INFO TERRAIN (Main): lSystem::exit() 2022-12-22 13:29:11.518 INFO TERRAIN (Main): lSystem::CleanScenes() 2022-12-22 13:29:11.518 INFO EDOBJECTS (Main): lTypeObjectManagerImpl::clear 13 2022-12-22 13:29:13.659 ERROR INTER (Main): Can't load terrain cfg "./Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua": can't open './Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua' 2022-12-22 13:29:13.659 ERROR INTER (Main): Failed to detect the required terrain DLL for ./Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua 2022-12-22 13:29:13.659 ERROR TERRAIN (Main): Can't create ITerrain interface for ./Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua 2022-12-22 13:29:13.659 ERROR Dispatcher (Main): Can't load terrain from ./Mods/terrains/Caucasus\terrain.cfg.lua 2022-12-22 13:29:13.702 INFO ASYNCNET (Main): server has stopped 2022-12-22 13:29:13.711 INFO Dispatcher (Main): Stop

Testing things further : - If you restart the server , the AV8 can connect - if it leaves the server and try to enter again => Crash . you have to restart the server to be able to connect again Edit: Look like crash happens if you reenter the same plane ( once that was previously already "pit" )

server logs on crash.

I recently found this . I'm not using it.

Hi, Working on this project I noticed some strange things on the CDU in the A10C2. From SYS Page. Page 1 : EGI page is not reported to DCSBIOS ? Page 1: LASTE then WIND , the Temp near ***/*** is not reported at the correct position on dcsbios ? (just in front of WNDEDIT ), same when you press WNDEDIT again Page 2 : Press MXLOG lower right , MXLOG page is displayed correctly on the CDU, but a different page is reported on the Right MFD? (shows CADC page instead ) FPBuild , the page number right to scratchpad is not send to DCSBios ( by the way, i also made a AH64 use of this )
