What is SIOC?

 

SIOC is a programming language/system that is used to program a flight simulator based on Opencockpits IOCards. Basically this means connecting a switch in your home build cockpit to the aircraft add-on in MS Flight simulator and, the other way around, using information in that add-on to control led's and digits in your cockpit.

Hi. I'm still running v1.1.1.1 and haven't yet moved to DCS World. Anyone else made the leap with SIOC in mind that could share the result ?

 

(Sorry if i missed any earlier post/s)

Thanks Stelios. Yepp, I've seen that. Pancake made a very good tutorial.

 

I was more looking for some insight of what to expect when migrating an existing SIOC config used with DCS v1.1.x to DCS World. I'll have to make 'some' reading and recap if there are some dead ends prior doing the upgrade ;-)

 

Cheers

It should not be that different once you point to the proper directories(?).

 

I am using Epic hardware with Helios and going from BS2 to DCSW is going quite well. I know it is different than your setup though.

 

good luck,

Thanks Superbus. Allways cautious when upgrading and will be some time before I try to make the jump :-)

Holding my thumbs and hope for some insight on the upgrade path

 

Cheers

Clueless

 

I'm sorry to report I have made little or no progress. I copied the old export.lua to the new directory C:\...\DCS World\Config\Export and examined what changes there were in the example file and implemented them. DCS connects to SIOC server when I start the sim, but it doesn't seem to send or receive anything. DCS freezes completely after drawing the first frame.

 

I'm afraid I'm not smart enough to crack this one. It has to be something really stupid and simple, though, because I can't think of any reason they would have changed anything fundamental now. There was no need.

Thanks SuberBus. Sounds like the jump to DCS World will be a challange. I'm not ready to make the upgrade yet so still hoping for the best.

 

Only OC & SIOC/SoftTH in my Pit right now but it may change :-)
