Great looking setup! Good work! You can easily remove the control boxes on the top right by setting the <ShowTitleButtons>true</ShowTitleButtons> property to <ShowTitleButtons>false</ShowTitleButtons> Each panel has that property so make sure you disable them all! Enjoy HawgTouch :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xxx Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 You need to add a condition for each button, takes quite a while. Have a look at the profile I posted and change the image names if you like to be Tyrixs, which will speed it up. Basically each light is its own button and event. OK, I have the warning panel positioned perfectly ( just fits a 19" monitor with the MFCD's, CDU and UFC thats in the ACC.XML ClearDark sorted for me earlier in the thread). Now my question is how do I get DCS to send the light instructions to the Hawg Touch warning panel? Sorry for the novice question, but I see no "init" guage files to export like the other panel guages. The warning panel seems to be in a Main panel init.lua in the A10c/cockpit folder? The lines are like this;- caution_lamp(404,SystemsSignals.flag_MASTER_WARNING_STUB) -- MASTER WARNING caution_lamp(480,SystemsSignals.flag_ENG_START_CYCLE) -- CAUTION LIGHT PANEL etc...... What do I edit to get the HT warning panel lit?

What do I edit to get the HT warning panel lit? Apologies for my dumbness:doh: The caution panel lights are already being sent to HawgTouch (since version 1.3) What you need to do is tie the button you want lit with the corresponding export event. To do this you need to use the <DataImportID> property on the caution panel ClickButton controls. To see the full list of statuses exported click HERE Notice under STATUSES section, the statuses beginning with CP_ are caution panel items. Here's a quick code snippet, check the BOLD parts: <Button> <Name>ENG_STRT_CYC</Name> [b]<DataImportID>CP_ENG_STRT_CYC</DataImportID>[/b] <Clickable>false</Clickable> <PressedImage>\Images\Tyrix_CP\CP_EGS.png</PressedImage> <DepressedImage>\Images\Tyrix_CP\CP_EGS-off.png</DepressedImage> <Type>ClickButton</Type> <ID>1</ID> <X>80</X> <Y>24</Y> <KeyCommand></KeyCommand> </Button> <Button> <Name>L_HYD_PRS</Name> [b]<DataImportID>CP_L_HYD_PRS</DataImportID>[/b] <Clickable>false</Clickable> <PressedImage>\Images\Tyrix_CP\CP_LHYDP.png</PressedImage> <DepressedImage>\Images\Tyrix_CP\CP_LHYDP-off.png</DepressedImage> <Type>ClickButton</Type> <ID>2</ID> <X>147</X> <Y>24</Y> <KeyCommand></KeyCommand> </Button> This code was taken from Tyrix's Caution Panel which can be found here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1175554&postcount=170 If you got any more questions let me know :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xxx Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Again thanks for super fast reply. I am a real Dumb.ass! "What you need to do is tie the button you want lit with the corresponding export event." "To do this you need to use the <DataImportID> property on the caution panel ClickButton controls". So how do I tie the button to the export event? Do I need to edit the mainpanel_init.lua? Or am I not getting it? I have Tyrix's panel xml in the editor now, I dont know what to edit?:doh: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]i7 Haswell @ 4.6Ghz, Z97p, GTX1080, 32GB DDR3, x3SSD, Win7/64, professional. 32" BenQ, TIR 5, Saitek x55 HOTAS.

You dont need to change a thing :) You will never have to mess with the export.lua file what so ever.

Xxx Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Thanks, I will try it again. It did not work before.

I had not enabled Data Export, hence my confusion and my bothering you taking up your valuable time.

Everythings running in administrator, but how do I ensure "data export" is enabled? Look at HawgTouch main window. At the Data Export section (left) it would say either: DISABLED (red) ENABLED (green) HELIOS (green) OUTDATED (orange) If you have anything but ENABLED it wouldn't work. Click the [Enable] button and restart the sim! You should be good to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druid_ Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 CD. FYI the Vne (max speed) bar on the ASI stays fixed whereas in reality it moves according to altitude (or more specifically air density). The Airspeed indicator works as advertised. i7-7700K : 16Gb DDR4 2800 Mhz : Asus Mobo : 2TB HDD : Intel 520 SSD 240gb : RTX 2080ti: Win10 64pro : Dx10 : TrackiR4 : TM Warthog : ASUS ROG SWIFT PG348Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClearDark Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 Thanks Druid_ The Vne data is not exported by DCS-A10C at all (or I was just unable to find it), hence why that particular needle stays static. I could derive the value from altitude and current speed if I had the exact formula. I'll try to guesstimate it as best as I can for future releases (or just look harder for that little piece of info) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CptBanzai Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Version 1.6 (next release) will be compatible with Steam.

I'm still waiting on some answers, I'll post updates soon :) ClearDark if you need any help with making a HawgTouch Steam compatible version just PM me.

I could derive the value from altitude and current speed if I had the exact formula. I'll try to guesstimate it as best as I can for future releases (or just look harder for that little piece of info) A rough calc :- TAS = altitude/200 + IAS (e.g. IAS 240 kts at 20,000ft = 100+240 = 340 Kts TAS) I'm assuming the Vne pointer is based solely on TAS. i7-7700K : 16Gb DDR4 2800 Mhz : Asus Mobo : 2TB HDD : Intel 520 SSD 240gb : RTX 2080ti: Win10 64pro : Dx10 : TrackiR4 : TM Warthog : ASUS ROG SWIFT PG348Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did't get it for Hawgtouch but i was wondering if i will be able to set my touch-screen up as a CDU and have the CDU data show within the touch-screen to? If that makes sense? As far as I know the CDU wont work in a touch screen without Hawgtouch. With Hawgtouch the CDU works well apart from the OSB keys which dont interface with DCS. Its to do with the "Down" and "Press" keysends. My xml "ACC.xml", which CD re did for me in an earlier post, contains the code for the MFCD's, UFC and CDU. CD is working on a "Genious keyboard thingy" method of sending key presses to sim without having to map them yourself! :smilewink: Regards.
