With all due respect, Stephen, you should get to grips with how difficult and cumbersome and clunky your camera setup controls are compared to the "others".  You made a great program?  Yes! and I always fly with it.  HOWEVER, the latest betas are causing my EZDOK to perform like crap.  Version 3.19 did not cause this conflict.  Every upgrade since has caused my EZDOk to by very jittery and jumpy just after changing to a new view.  Your suggestion to turn off this, and turn off that, and disable this,  does not work.  Can you tell me why?   Why can't I go back and download version 3.19? You don't have that version available? 

 

I simply want to run OPUS weather and EZDOK at the same time. Please respect that decision and preference...end of discussion.   I had no problem before version 3.2x?  

 

I feel that OPUS is a great value and a terrific product (including live camera for those who do not have EZDOK) and I highly recommend it.        

 

Thank you Stephen and Cheryl, whoever yous are , for great customer support and a wonderful product but, my FSX is less enjoyable now until I figure out how to now run OPUS and EZDOk at the same time. 

With all due respect many thousands of users think otherwise you just need to read the manual and step through the example.

 

If you don't want to use Live Camera then don't its fine by me just take the discussion elsewhere please. If you run EZCA then you cannot use other turbulence. You cannot for obvious reasons have two different program's controlling the views eye point, its not possible.

 

There is NO conflict you just have to download the LATEST beta and turn the camera and general DHM stuff OFF.

 

Stephen

"take the discussion elsewhere"?

 

WOW!  just WOW!   

I think you will find the latest betas will work perfectly well with EZCA when you turn off Live Camera, Live Camera Control, and all the General DHM. This fix has been around for a while and was Announced on SimForums. You must upgrade to the latest beta.

 

Stephen

You must download, uninstall, and install the latest Beta though, not the latest Upgrade.

 

The latest Betas included the fix not in the upgrade release version yet. The fix has been available for some time.

I think you should factor in the complexity of the programming going on with OPUS. I would bet my FS career that the "little" OPUS program is doing more computations and data decoding than the "other" competitors. Therefor the more addons they tack onto it on top of the base you're going to see a performance decrease. Yours just happens to be EZDOK, SOL. Yes they could revert to previous versions, but unless there is a significant # of users having the same issue they aren't going to rollback a BETA. For all I know they would have to decode to fix your issue or they may actually have every version updated.

 

IMHO, one person having a problem shouldn't mean reinventing the wheel unless it is a problem shared by many and affects the overall usage of the program. Stephen and Cheryl are trying to help you, and while the points may be getting skewed you can't argue with having the type of support they provide.

 

My .2 cents. I may sound crass, but that's only because your post struck me as such.

Thanks for the response Stephen, but I am a little surprised that there is no video from you guys backing up what you say.

 

Fair enough, I'll give it a try, but really this is a visual piece of software so I would have thought it would benefit from a video to show its wonders.

 

Kind regards

I understand what you are saying and agree with you but we are generally so busy there is nearly enough time to sit down and eat the evening meal let alone take time out to make a video. Instead we provided the General DHM options for users with Live Camera disabled. Just disable EZCA and TrackIR and enable the VC General DHM, then update the weather, and go fly. You should see DHM and Bump Aircraft turbulence. Just remember your Bump Aircraft may need tweaking, you should of course check the General DHM options before doing all this. You will find them in the Configure dialog.

 

Stephen

There are some videos out there showing what DHM looks like, check the links from our gallery page, but the capture rate of videos means that you will not see the effects as well as they would actually appear on your PC.

Why is this topic mark "solved" I'm still having the problem.

Because users have reported that with the latest beta, which has now been posted as a release Upgrade, if you turn everything OFF in the Configure dialog then there is NO camera anomalies originating from Opus. All the software is disabled and all the SimConnect camera and view related functions are completely shut down.

The cause of a previous anomaly was solved and reported corrected in a recent Beta. The software has also been traced and monitored and not one single camera or view altering control is issued, and as I said all the functions are shut down.

So just upgrade to the latest Release Version 3.32.1 and open the Configure dialog and disable Live Camera Control, disable Live Camera, and disable all three General DHM options.

Then ALL Opus camera and view effects are completely disabled and inactive.

Stephen :-)

Ok thanks Stephen.  No hard feelings I hope.  I didn't mean to get snippy and take my constant tweaking and fixing of FSX  frustrations :mad:  out on OPUS.   :huh:  

SOLVED now thank you!
