Simpit Software from SDA

OK. I'll take another look at that. That has worked better.

 

juste let me know when ready to test

[McMicha]

Hi McMicha, I noticed today the fuselage tank indicator for the P-51D is not working, did you fix that in the new version/export also along with the few other things in the german ww2 birds?

Hello Dafiew,

 

the mistake was not known to me so far.

The bug will be fixed with one of the next updates.

The DCS - ID for the fuselage tank indicator has not yet been documented. I'm going to check this evening again.

[H-J-P]

The document id is just wrong. I actually do not see the instrument. Can you help with a picture there?

Hello McMisha and H-J-P, guys I am very grateful for your work as I get to have an incredible glass cockpit setup for my A10C!

 

I still have crashes although I am not sure if it comes from Ikarus itself since the last update it seems to have helped alot.

 

When activating switches, sometimes it causes DCS to lock up (no interface and last frame is shown). If I look at the task manager and look at the wait thread it appears to be DCS that is hung on itself over the network usage, if it makes any sense.

 

The reason I am still suspecting some influence from Ikarus, is that It occured at leat twice doing the same sequence while starting up the hog, using the cmsp panel. At this point the GPU and CPU at not that much stressed.

 

Other ocurences of such lock ups are mostly during very busy situations, with multiple attacking and defending units over cities and such.

 

Sometimes even, Ikarus freezes momentarily while activating stuff, I go like, wtf, then I notice my main screen is locked up. About 50% of the time it will suddenly carry on after a few seconds, other times it's game over.

 

As I am running _lots_ of softwares and overclock moderately, I am still thinking about dialing back my overclocks, if that is the problem.

 

However, I troubleshoot all sorts of stuff so I have and am willing to spend the time into providing any information that may be useful to stabilize my system.

 

Thank you so much again for the great piece of code.

@ METEOP

If I may.

I find out that DCS freeze less when I use ASUS GPU TweakII with OC setting on my GTX 1070.

I've just switched to MSI Afterburner, before I was using Tweak2 with the same results.

You can see it in the top left section of my profile that I have created, I assume it’s the fuselage tank, it’s not registering for any tanks, also the 109 MW pressure is not working (190 works) and oxygen pressure gages in both the 109 and the 190 are not working either

 

Thank you very much guys! Your software takes this sim to a whole new level

MSI is only to limite he FPS.

I limited to 60 because my screens does not support faster

@Dafiew: This is an interesting profile. I'll take care of the 190 and 109 afterwards.

[H-J-P]

@Dafiew: 109 and 190 solved. P-51 is open. I do not see a mistake here. It is probably the module. None of the three possible fuel gauges work.

 

I have uploaded a new Ikarus version 1.4.5.409. Please update.

 

Thanks for your support.

installed and will test it later today

[raymondabel]

I see that in https://github.com/H-J-P/Ikarus/commit/05560497daada2ef6a424b37276a31e8e39ec4fa

 

no specific changes for the A-10C?

Edited January 10, 2019 by raymondabel

[H-J-P]

The last changes for the A-10C were for TACAN and ILS. Take a look at it. Thank you.

 

Have I overlooked something?

probably not.

it is in the https://github.com/H-J-P/Ikarus/commit/05560497daada2ef6a424b37276a31e8e39ec4fa that theire is no a-10c modification.

 

also

as far as my testiong goes, this is a succes.

no DCS freese.

[H-J-P]

We can optimize everything. That too.

I thought you already tested that with McMicha. Yes, nothing changes for the buttons. Also on the stability of such changes, there is no influence. :pilotfly:

[H-J-P]

Ikarus itself is now finished. The other new versions will contain new ads. As e.g. for the F-16.

 

The last big problem with the buttons I understood and solved accordingly. Understanding the mechanics behind it was very interesting.

Good news. The fuel gauge works now. Please refuel the P-51 on the ground and update to version 1.4.5.410. Thanks.

Multi PC Ikarus set up

 

I have just built a new PC and want to build a sim pit. To determine how I will set up the sim pit I need to get some questions answered that I can't find the answers to. I hope this is the place to post this. This is what I'm thinking for the the monitor set up. I would like to use a 45" 4K TV or some kind of projector set up with a glass instrument panel using Ikarus. What I would like to use for the Instrument panel is a 23" HP TouchSmart PC w/ touchscreen. So my first question is, can I export MFCD's, RWR and the like to another PC running Ikarus or is it limited to just another monitor? As far as software my question is I only need Ikarus and an export program like DCS BIOS, plus openning specific ports for it to communicate ? Thanks for the help !

You can export Ikarus to another computer running the cockpit but so far I have not come accross an efficient way to get the DCS exports to said computer.

 

So far I was not successful in increasing performance by using a second computer so running everything from the same pc.

[McMicha]

Hello, Oh-Zee,

 

first of all thank you for your interest in our software.

 

Ikarus shows only the data sent by the export script, but you need a certain export script.

Namely our DCS ExportScript, which you can download here.

 

How to set it up and what it can do can be found in the Wiki.

 

Other export scripts, like DCS BIOS or the export script of Capt Zeen, or the HELIOS Project don't work.

In most cases you can run these export scripts in parallel.

 

 

Now to your questions.

The DCS ExportScript can read all data from DCS which is available as text or numeric value and send it via UDP network to your own computer (localhost) or to a remote computer.

What definitely doesn't work at the moment is the export and transfer via network of screen views like the MFCD, RWR, Radar or other screens.

 

These screen contents can only be displayed via viewport on the same computer running DCS World.

 

Ikarus can send data from displayed switches via network back to the ExportScript and thus to DCS World.
