Another radar gauge for VC & Window usage

[roland_lfor 245]

Original implementation indeed, thanks for posting :smile:

Takes a good pair of glasses for sure!

Re statement on previous page of this thread, where is v3.2 available from... as doing a search in the Avsim library on Rolands name, only brings up a download option for "Weather Radar VC & pop-up Gauge V 1.0"

[roland_lfor 245]

Ok, 3.2 concerns the Prepar3D version, not the gauge version which is 1.0.

[robb13 22]

Thanks for clarification of that... if I had read all 26 pages, I'd probably have picked up on that.

Hi,
Thank you, Roland, for this excellent gauge. Finally I have found the perfect replacement for the Alabeo Aztec stormscope that doesn't seem to work in P3Dv3.x.
The image shows some panel textures which are part of a repaint I have made for the Aztec.

I assume that the gauge will not work with Active Sky 16 or will it?

[roland_lfor 245]

I have no idea ... until someone get the API documentation if any.

If the API is the same and the interface DLL also, there is a good chance.

 

But I saw somewhere that they are going to deliver a radar gauge with AS16 so I'm afraid the interface will disappear for 3rd party gauges.

 

Is AS16 a replacement of ASN? Not sure to understand the new HiFi product line.

 

Also I'm still waiting the API enhancement to add the vertical profile view in my gauge. My ticket has been accepted a long time ago (almost 1 year), but still nothing in the last SP5   

[jabloomf1230 2,445]

Yes, AS16 is the new version of ASN. The linkage to the radar in the PMDG aircraft is continued in AS16, so maybe the new app isn't all that different from ASN.

 

ASCA is a new companion product that adds cloud textures that change dynamically while the sim is running.

[roland_lfor 245]

If the PMDG radar is ok, mine should work as well. Both use the same API from ASN.

So tha't good news!

 

Can ASCA work with ASN, or do we need to move to AS16?

[jabloomf1230 2,445]

According to the limited information provided so far by Hifi, ASCA works with any weather injector, but the dynamic textures only work with AS16.

ASCA Integration for Real-Time Texture Dynamics

AS16 works with any texture/graphics add-ons (including default graphics), but when combined with ASCA, real-time texture dynamics and automatic wx-influenced selections are enabled

[roland_lfor 245]

Patrick,

 

Can you confirm that the ASN Radar API will remain in AS16?

Thanks

Hi Roland, all,

Yes, the API remains and even extended further but is fully backward compatible.  All developers, please feel free to contact us for pre-release integration testing builds (support.hifitechinc.com).  We're very close now.

[roland_lfor 245]

Thanks a lot Damian, very good news

 

@Cool: nice integration, thanks for your feedback!
