October 21, 200223 yr Where does one get the latest information, assuming there has been any released? I've never really been able to find much info at all. Does anyone know if there is a website that might have some current info? On the radarcontact website I only see stuff about v.2.2. I won't bother to ask about a release date. Just really more interested in its features and interface.Thanks, Adam :-)
October 21, 200223 yr Adam,Have you checked the RC forum here at Avsim?Dave dv Win 10 Pro || i7-8700K || 32GB || ASUS Z370-P MB || NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11Gb || 2 960 PRO 1TB, 840 EVO My Files in the AVSIM Library
October 21, 200223 yr Direct to the thread you seek:http://ftp.avsim.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboa...ewmode=threadedRadar Contact V3 Feature list:http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/3d...024e7a343a.html
October 21, 200223 yr Thank you very much guys for the link. It sounds amazing!I didn't see anything about the user interface. Will it be a series of drop down menus such as the existing FS ATC menus? Or is it likely to be a series of key inputs that must be memorized? I haven't even seen a version of RC in use. Regardless, I'm really looking forward to this program! :-yellow1 Thanks again,Adam
October 22, 200223 yr Commercial Member version 3 uses peter dowson's advdisp.dll to provide a small 1 square inch window, with 5 menu items, a navigation line (what, how far, what heading to your next checkpoint). looks something like this [email protected] [table border=2 bgcolor=#000000" bordercolorlight="#FF9933" bordercolordark="#FF9933][tr][td]http://www.jdtllc.com/images/Radar_small.gif[/td][td] Co-Developer of Radar Contact V3] the premiere ATC adventure add-on for FS JD Read my blog
October 22, 200223 yr Sorry jd, I should have said hopefully you guys will make a transparent one, seeing that you're a co-developer! I've gotta be a little more observant! :-lol Adam
October 22, 200223 yr Commercial Member that would have to come from peter dowson. we've asked, he's not thrilled with the idea. either are the beta testers, or most of the people i talk to. they like the little box, they can put it anywhere on the panel, change colors, fonts, backgrounds, etc. lot of things you can do with it.[email protected] [table border=2 bgcolor=#000000" bordercolorlight="#FF9933" bordercolordark="#FF9933][tr][td]http://www.jdtllc.com/images/Radar_small.gif[/td][td] Co-Developer of Radar Contact V3] the premiere ATC adventure add-on for FS JD Read my blog
October 22, 200223 yr Author Moderator Hi JD and all,As well as using AdvDisp for RC3 info you can also direct the information to a utility called ShowText. This is a separate executable and also allows you to size the font and window to whatever size you like. If you have a separate monitor it's a nice alternative.Cheers, Ray (Cheshire, England).
