OverDhill Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 I just purchased FC3 and currently use Helios on a networked PC. I have Loophole's Export script working and the gauges are all working in Helios on the networked PC. Is there a way to export the MFCD (and other items) and display them on a networked PC? I am guessing this is a long shot at best but I have to ask. :helpsmilie:
Boltz Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 I don't have FC3, but this is should work. Set it up to render the MFCD and radar somewhere on the FC3 computer (corners or on separate virtual or physical screen.) Then there is a small program initially written by Gremlin77 and then finished and released by whartsell. It can be found here:https://code.google.com/p/hogkeys/downloads/detail?name=Iris-0.1.0.11.exe&can=2&q=. More information can be found in Gremlin's build thread along with a short pdf manual http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=86916&highlight=gremlin77&page=25 I use it in my pit to export the MFDs to a networked computer running Helios and it works perfectly, although because you are still rendering the MFCDs on the sim computer it may slow down FC3. It does not render them from FC3 onto a networked PC, it just copies a portion of the screen from one computer to another. A-10C Cockpit Build Thread My YouTube Channel
OverDhill Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 I have played around with my Helios FC3 skin and rethinking about what can easily seen on the instrument panel with TrackIR. Actually looking directly forward I can see the Vertical Situation Display (VSD) and TEWS Display Unit perfectly without even glancing down. On my 24" touchscreen I can see the following gauges updated in real-time in Helios: Mach Meter Attitude Director Indicator (ADI) Altimeter Horizontal Situation Indicator (not sure it is fully functional) Engine Tachometers (right and left) Fan Turbine Inlet Temps FTIT (right and left) Angle Of Attack (it was off by +12 degrees but fixed the Export script file) Vertical Velocity Indicator Here is what I have so far. I am not really going to miss the VSD and TEWS as they are both clearly visible
