Winwing MCDU -can it be used in DCS - for other aircraft

[GregP]

Just wanted to say thanks for developing this program! I got my CDU working with the A-10 last night and it's fantastic, really adds to the immersion.

Yes indeed, thank you. Everything has been working as expected.

Great work, thank you!

Mmmmm not sure what I’ve done wrong here.  I can get output on my pfp7, I can interact with DCS a treat. The issue I’m having is the mcdudcsbiosbridge keeps shutting down with zero error messages. 
 

if I restart it, things start working again, but then it closes down again. 
 

any ideas?

1st be sure to use the latest verstion ( 1.4 beta at this time , but here are the releases https://github.com/landre-cerp/McduDcsBiosBridge/releases )
and the readme instructions. 
https://github.com/landre-cerp/McduDcsBiosBridge/blob/main/README.md

Common mistakes: 
Check DcsBiosLocationPath uses \\ not \    "c:\\Users ...."  

Note that i changes the .Exe name to WWCdu  instaed of MCdu . i will update the Readme accordingly.

I had the same issue until I realised I had bound the MCDU MENU key; this key shuts down the bridging app.

Thanks for pointing this out. I will certainly remove this default behavior it's useless.
Edit : Removed in 1.5 and later.

Ohhh , yep I do have all the keys bound on my pfp7.   I’ll unbind and see if that works. 
 

thanks.

Even better, I’ll just download the latest version.   That was pretty quick work.

 

thanks.
