Working on glass displays for the MD-11

Featured Replies

Hi all,I've been working on a DX9 glass display for the PMDG MD-11. It connects via simconnect so it can be run from another computer using separate displays. I cannot access any FMS data so the amount of data I can show is limited. All lines, arc's, fonts are generated using tiny triangle-strips to keep the edges sharp and the rendering time minimal. It runs very smoothly on an ATI 5770, about 2.2ms to do all three displays. All flight data is interpolated to give the appearance of real-time operation.cheersJohn Headlam

Thanks Markus, I used the Martin Air and Swiss Air MD-11 DVD's to craft the fonts, sample the colours and place the various objects. The PMDG MD-11 is a joy to fly, well worth investing the time to build this app.cheersJohn Headlam
