tsarcorp Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I just tested it out and this orientation works great only one strange thing i noticed is a red/salmon pink colour tint on the image. At first I was wondering how I had thermals in the cockpit but colour on the tablet I tested it without the rotation and it works as normal with no colour distortion.

colo Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 Hi, taking into consideration that this forum has been moved into "For Sale" category without any notification, and also that some people don't understand that the free version was always in beta stage (which gives me bad score on Google play due their bad rating) DCSpanelsClient (free version of app) has been removed from Google Play. Thank you for understanding !

Seb_3D Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hello, First off, very ingenious app! Just bought it, works great except for one little problem. When I run it I experience a huge FPS drop. The game usually runs at 60-70 FPS but when enabling the app it will drop to 12-15. I am thinking its because SLI doesn't run in WINDOWED mode (currently running two GTX 660 Ti) however I ran the app in FULLSCREEN mode, it showed fine on my tablet but the FPS drop was still present. Is this something anyone else experienced? Thanks, -Seb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colo Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hello, thank you for your feedback ! As described in requirements the app is only designed to work in windowed mode. I don't have CLI configuration so I am not able to test it with CLI.

AesclepiusCrow Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Resolved the first issue. I had not noticed both devices were attempting to connect on the same port. Set up custom ports on the devices and voila. Colo, I've been using the free client for some time now, but upgraded to the newer Pro client in order to try the newer features. I do read that in the 1.0.5 update you fixed multiple android connections, but I don't seem to be able to get two devices running. I can get them both running in the free client, but not in pro. In the pro client, I get one connected, then click on the second MFD to see the "left" "right" toggle box beneath the MFD, but no connection is ever established. It simply sits there with the MFD image. Also, this is likely not related to Panels, but when using a certain OSB (it is either alt+r or shift+r, whichever the mission reset key was. Erasing or replacing the setting seems to do nothing.) the mission resets. I'm sure there is some means to disable it, but I can't seem to find any instructions on how to do so. Surely this is a .lua edit somewhere? Thanks all. Edited February 19, 2015 by AesclepiusCrow Solved part of issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colo Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 Hi, please download new server version 1.0.8 from lumatek.sk website, I have changed right MFCD OSB 19 button mapping from shift + r to shift + i. Please update - in DCS World - right MFCD OSB 19 button mapping from shift + r to shift + i in OPTIONS -> CONTROLS -> A10C Sim -> RightMFCD No changed needed on client side (tablet) Cheers, colo Intel Core i7 11700, 32 GB RAM, Nvidia RTX 4090, NVMe 3 TB, VR HP Reverb G2, Thrustmaster Warthog + pedals, Cougar MFDs, TrackIR, aInstruments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AesclepiusCrow Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Appreciate it, Colo! I know this is not likely to be added soon, but any chance we'll see A-10C gauges ala some of the other google apps (P-51 and UH-1) in the play store? I know they're not your apps, but that does seem to be the next logical step for this program. It seems now to be the only facet missing from a completely portable device cockpit. I've been envisioning a cockpit in which you simply slide your tablets or phones in and out of a mount and you're ready to fly. Highly portable and in many cases cheaper than the traditional multi-monitor setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eliasr Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Hey Colo, great app for an reasonable price. I was able to virtually create a second monitor. (basicly just told windows to look for a projector on the vga, and selected the resolution, which was closes to my phone <1280 x 720> ) With that set up, I am able to see both MFCD's, but not the CDU. (both on my virtual monitor and in the android application). So far i suspect that the CDU export you cover in your 1HW monitor tutorial, also might have to be applied here. - but I'm not sure. A second issue is that my keyboard settings doesn't seem to be overwritten by your program. The shortcuts for the OSB aren't set. Setting them manually resolves the issue. I think it does a good job, and i think it should have all the support it can get. Especially since it doesn't cost 60$ to unlock individual viewports like some other app does. Wishlist: close and re-establish connection, so mode change can occur with little to no inconvenience. - could be done in several ways. like disconnecting a port for the specific mode when clicking the back button. (then its basicly implemented) Vibration for button clicks and an option to turn it on or off. Should be fairly simple for Android, but i don't know about Ios. A newcomer tutorial, which makes it easier to use the application. Eg. How to create a virtual second monitor, and a recommended size Setting up DCS manually, in case that keybord shortcuts are not working, or something seems missing. Automatically changeing DCS config, so lumatek monitor is selected and resolution is set. Mode switch by swipeing. eg. singlemode MFCD -> dual mode MFCD -> other instruments. I hope you will be able and have time to work some more on your application, as it is a nice thing to the DCS community, and again, it ain't a rip off.

colo Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hey eliasr, thank you for buying DCSpanelsPro ! Sorry to hear that you have problems with CDU (yes is is usually problem with exporting instrument) The main problem with install automation is that DCS world is changing from version to version, for example if you install new patch for DCS world it will unexport CDU instrument again. But you are right I should improve app on desktop and also on Android as well as web page to provide more information -thank you for feedback, I especially like the idea of button vibration I will implement it soon.

eliasr Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Thanks for the update. I just noticed it yesterday. It is some time ago I last worked with Lua, but I will eventually get around to fixing the export issue. I ran into another problem though. When I press start in DCSPanelServer ( v 1.0.8 ) I get the error message: This version is old! Please download newer from http://www.lumatek.sk So I downloaded it again, to be sure, but no luck. I recently updated my java to 8.0_45, so i tried downgrading, but it didn't solve the problem either. I don't have a clue on that one though.

colo Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Regarding CDU export: You don't need to manually edit lua file, just download modified lua file from here, unzip and copy it over original file located (by default) at YOUR_DCS_WORLD_PATH\Mods\aircraft\A-10C\Cockpit\scripts\CDU\indicator Thank for "old version" bug report - I will look at it within several hours Best, colo Intel Core i7 11700, 32 GB RAM, Nvidia RTX 4090, NVMe 3 TB, VR HP Reverb G2, Thrustmaster Warthog + pedals, Cougar MFDs, TrackIR, aInstruments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eliasr Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Great work! All i need to do now, is to set my CDU shortcut keys up and move the coms menu ( http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=88889 ) Changing module works like a charm, and connections are also more failsafe now. I did not experience the issues that Montes had. A minor detail: height and width for the size of the MFCD's and CDU seems to be switched. That is, altering width actually alters height... or at least it is in mine. But it was really easy to set the right values in this update.
