July 29, 201015 yr Hello,I need help with dsd_xml_sound3 guage. I read through release notes and I did the following:Add this to panel.cfg:gauge03=dsd_xml_sound3!dsd_xml_sound3, 73,529,45,45,./Gauges/config_file.inicreated an ini file:[Config]Lvar=Sound[LVars]Lvar00=dsd_xml_sound_id_00[sounds]Sound00=./Sound/dsd/Release_break.WAVI can't get it to work. Do I have to create an XML file as well to get it to work? If so, could someone help me with the XML as I don't know how to do this. --------------------------------------Cheers,
September 4, 201015 yr Hi,this is a example ( out of my TCAS development work) how you should define your dsd_xml....I created a folder with the name TCAS and copied into the main Gauges folder of FSX.1. This TCAS folder includes the dsd_xml_sounde.dll. I renamed it to sound3.dll .2. I have two .wav files . TCAS_Alert.wav and TCAS_warn.wav.3. The sound.ini file is as well in this folder and looks like this:[Config]MaxSounds=4Lvar=TCAS_SoundIdLvarStop=TCAS_SoundStop[sounds]Sound00=./Gauges/TCAS/TCAS_Warn.wavSound01=./Gauges/TCAS/TCAS_Alert.wav[LVars]Lvar00=TCAS_WarnLvar01=TCAS_AlertNow you have to work with the LVars "TCAS_Warn" and "TCAS_Alert" in your XML code in order to trigger the sound.The entry in your panel.cfg must be in ths example like this:gaugexx=TCAS/Sound3!dsd_xml_sound3, 0,0,,, ./gauges/TCAS/Sound.iniNow FSX looks into the TCAS folder in the main Gauges folder, will find "Sound3" and adress "dsd_xml_sound3" name in the .dll.The definition " ,, ./gauges/TCAS/Sound.ini " is the path where the Sound.ini file is located.Thats the way I work with it, and it works perfect.Hope this helpsDietmar
