Black Shark Nirvana with TouchBuddy

[Celo63]

Roger that Snacko. Thanks for clearing that up. One more fly picked from the ointment, so to speak. :D

 

I'll ask about the phantom monitor in a more relevant thread.

 

Cheers :thumbup:

The TouchBuddy site is back up now in case you needed something there..

Very nice profile there!!

Makes me want a touch screen.. I have a question (tryed finding a definite answer but have'nt found it): Can I use a USB screen for touchbuddy so as to have the second DVI-port on the graphics card for something else??

 

Thx

Yes, you should be able to use any monitor. There is nothing special about touchbuddy that requires a special monitor. If other programs work on that montior, then touchbuddy will.

I have tried to use DD's profile for TB and BS but have had some problems.

First, when I tried it in full screen, it would not work. When I tried it in windows mode, it worked but parts of the Skval and the Arbis were duplicated so not the full Shkval and Arbis showed. Also, numerous times I got a error message and the game dropped back to the windows screen.

 

Is any one else having problems? Does it work in full screen?

thanks

Excellent profile! It inspired me to get touch buddy and to my wife's dismay purchase a touch screen (luckily found a great deal on e-bay for a 15").

 

Now that the PCIP is available through lua how would I go about making buttons toggle in touch buddy? I have the necessary skills to work on the lua side, but the touchbuddy side is rather lacking in documentation.

 

Will this require writing new active controls? If so is there a way to get access to the lomac file configured via the touchbuddy config file or will each control need to parse the files individually?

Have you downloaded the Toolkit for Touchbuddy? It is fully documented with integrated context help. That and looking at other profiles to see how they did stuff should help you figure it out.

I have not done this yet, but all of the problems people are having in setting up DDs profile have to do with configuring BlackShark, not Touchbuddy.
