Another radar gauge for VC & Window usage

[Lucass 3]

Ok, one step forward...

I installed SimConnect - now I have it in Programs and Features window - and now radar works but only in windowed mode - VC still nothing :unsure:

(even mouse cursor doesn't change over the radar display on various click spot locations)

 

Here is my panel.cfg. Can you look at it?

Ok, one step forward...

 

Lucas

 

Looking at your panel.cfg the only thing I see is that it looks like you are using the normal resolution panel while I'm using the high definition setting. Not sure if that is a problem, but you might try changing that in the PMDG_BAe_JS4100_ConfigManager. You'll have to copy back your "gauge06" line into [VCockpit02]. As always save a backup of you panel.cfg before changing this in ConfigManager

 

This will also have the effect of giving you a nice clean panel,cfg as I see a reference to something called XGauge defined as a 2dD pop-up that I don't have. Not sure if that is a problem, but it is always good to get back to a fresh panel.cfg when trying to troubleshoot.

 

In any case, good to hear the gauge is working now. I'm sure you're close to getting this working.

[roland_lfor 245]

Lucass,

 

I strongly suggest that you remove the XGauge declaration as it may create a confict with mine.

 

Remove the whole XGauge lines:

 

[Window08]
size_mm=253,190
position = 5
Visible = 0
ident = 14991
zorder = 100

gauge00=XGauge!WeatherMap,0,0,253,190

 

and also its declaration in [Window Titles]:

 

Window08=XGauge

 

and hopefully it should work this time!

 

Roland

[Lucass 3]

Hi Roland,

 

I tried remove XGauge (via UNINSTALL option in ASN; not manually delete the lines) - but no results...

 

I will try Skyscraper's suggestions...

 

Lucas

[roland_lfor 245]

Which file are you editing? panel.cfg, or panel_hires.cfg or panel_lores.cfg?

I don't remember exactly the JS41 but I know there is at least 3 panel files ... which one is used, not sure

 

Roland

[Lucass 3]

I don't remember if there are files as you mentioned, I have to check this... however, I think, one file is used in simulation...

 

I edited panel.cfg .

[Korber 4]

You should comment out the rxpW gauge (//), in your "VC section 2" to have Rols radar appear in your VC,

try these changes:

[roland_lfor 245]

I don't think it's the trick as far as Lucas don't own the RXP. However it can't hurt to try.

 

But I think I understand now why it does not show up:

 

The coordinates and size 532, 528, 472, 331 are good with the HiRes version of the VC.

For the LowRes VC, Lucas should try 266, 264, 236, 166.(the default RXP location)

 

Roland

[Lucass 3]

I see that I should do a few more tests - I will do it when I'll be at home, then report results...

 

Thank you for help, guys.

 

Best regards,

Lucas

[Lucass 3]

Roland, BINGO! Changing coordinates for low resolution VC resolved my problem. Finally!

Thanks again for help, Gents! ..and thanks for nice addon

 

Ps. Maybe it is worth to describe this case in Manual, Roland?

 

All the best,

Lucas

[roland_lfor 245]

Great Lucas, I'm happy for you!

There is always an explanation ... if we take the time to search :Big Grin:

 

As proposed Skyscraper, you should try the HiRes version of the JS41 panel.

 

Roland

[Lucass 3]

Probably it was the reason that I changed to low res. - If I remember rightly, in HD VC I had sharpness edges on instrument indications.

Maybe it depends on monitor resolution...mine has 1280x1024.

[skyscraper 1]

Lucas,

 

Good deal, glad you have it working.

 

The issue I have with the JS4100 is some pixel "crawling" (for want of a better description)  around some of the instrument bezels that regardless of Hi or Normal cockpit resolution, no amount of anti-aliasing will fix. We had a long forum discussion years ago when it came out. I fly that plane mainly as copilot as the issue was less on that side and the FMS is closer (but now the weather radar is further away :mad: . I might of hangered it, but other than that one issue it's wonderful piece of work by PMDG.

[CoolP 283]

 

 

no amount of anti-aliasing will fix

To help, transparency AA will do the trick. Well, it does here and that's with 4x Sparse Grid Supersampling.

[roland_lfor 245]

Hello,

 

I've tested a new animation on the radar today, to simulate the radar beam and put more life in my cockpit, especially when there is no rain in front of me.

 

It use some transparency with the precipitation bitmap:

 

 

 

It does not give the good feeling in this still picture, but it's quite nice with animation.

 

It will be available as an option in next update.
