BaD CrC Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I'm looking at some options to equip my pit right now, and I believe that it would be easy to stick two screens behind my panel to display all the gauges + ABRIS + TV. Considering the price of one simkit gauge (between 150 and 250 euros) and the price of a big screen (200 euros), this will allow significant savings. Unfortunately, displaying anything else than TV and ABRIS is not implemented in the game. Any chance that it will happen, or do you guys have a solution for this idea? :helpsmilie: https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
soup55 Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 BaD CrC - This has been my thinking also. I have seen it implemented in simulators, some, to the point where they place bezels over the simulated guages, along with proper rotary knobs, switches, buttons, etc. If you hear of a solution please post it! And if I learn something along these lines I will be sure to contact you. :thumbup: Sounds like the way to go! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] SOUP55:matrix:
BaD CrC Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 Simmeters started to do this kind of things with Eastern block gauges displayed on secondary panel. I wish we could have some gauges graphic editing tool then use their workspace 2 system. I'm sure that there will soon be a way to export many parameters through lua files then through TCP-IP. Having a second PC in charge of displaying gauges will also save fps for the sim. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
Acedy Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I'm sure that there will soon be a way to export many parameters through lua files then through TCP-IP. You can already export alot of raw data via the export.lua script (and also send commands to BS), which you could then process in a separate application. See the tutorial here: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?end_pos=567&scr=default&lang=en However I would wait for the PCIP package to be released, see: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=31052 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] *** SERVMAN SERVER MANAGEMENT MOD V2 FOR DCS:BS V1.0.1 *** *** VERSION FOR FC2 ***

BaD CrC Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 Wow, this stuff with Touch buddy is pretty awsome. Thanks for pointing this out. It is getting really close to what I am looking for. I guess it's a matter of time before we have gauges displayed on networked PCs for cockpit builder. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden
