Another radar gauge for VC & Window usage

Recommended Posts

Got it,

Thanks very much Roland :P

I used as you proposed, the standard Gps buttons to drive the radar parameters via FUIPC

 

  • GPS zoom out button: Range +
  • GPS zoom in button: Range -
  • GPS group knob increase: Tilt +
  • GPS group knob decrease: Tilt -

I introduce your gauge in the VC panel.cfg as follow and get the radar after 3 clics on the "menu" button of the radio panel

file=$RAF_GPS.bmp
background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=2048,2048
visible=1
pixel_size=2048,2048
texture=$RAF_GPS

gauge00=Cargo400M_Rol13Gauge!NAVCOM_info,                    1448,1450,600,467
gauge01=Cargo400M_Rol13Gauge!NAVCOM_info2,                   610,842,600,467
//gauge02=Cargo400M_Rol13Gauge!NAVCOM_info3,                   610,1443,600,467
gauge02=RolasnRadar!oRadGauge,  620,1460,580,470, starton|sweep|icing

...

 

Here is the result:

Pascal,

 

As you are now able to drive the radar, may I suggest that you change the declaration as follow:

 

 

gauge02=RolasnRadar!oRadGauge, 620,1460,580,470, sweep|beam|icing

 

The radar will then start off (much more realistic) and you will get the benefit of the new beam animation :)

 

You should be able to adjust the gain as well from the Gps "Page knob" events.

Hi Roland and thanks for your great work as I've seen by its pictures. I installed the gauge into PMDG MD-11 as your instructions:

 

1 - Downloaded and installed Microsoft VC++2013

2 - Pasted the gauge into FSX Gauge directory

3 - Added "WindowXX=RolASN weather Radar" to the plane's panel CFG

4 - Also added

"[WindowXX]

size_mm=500,500

zorder=4
gauge00=RolasnRadar!ShellRadGauge, 0,0,,, sweep|beam|icing|nogps"
 
to the plane's panel CFG
 
but I've got a black square instead.
 
I use Windows 7 Ultimate (fully updated)  with FSX Acceleration.

Hi,

 

Of course you understand that the XX must be replaced by the number that follows the last existing [Window] declaration of the MD-11 panel.cfg?

Did you see the comment on [Windows47]?

 

 

// UPDATER [Dummy: MUST BE ALWAYS THE LAST PANEL!!]

//
[window47]

 

So you should keep the Updater in last position (48), and move up the radar as [Window47]

I did that but still the black square both in 2D & 3D panels.

 

Both? What do you mean?

You cannot install the gauge twice in a single panel.cfg.

 

Following your declaration you should obtain only the 2D Shell pop-up.

Do you see the Bendix Shell (with its knobs) when you open the pop-up?

 

You need a SimConnect installation. Do you see one in Windows panel/Installed software list?

 

Did you installed the x86 version of the VC++ 2013 redistributables ?

 

 

You panel declaration should now be the following:

 

 

[window47]

size_mm=500,500

zorder=4

gauge00=RolasnRadar!ShellRadGauge, 0,0,,, sweep|beam|icing|nogps

I meant both in MD-11 2D & 3D panels. I always use VC in MD-11 and just as a test I selected 2D panel in FSX settings to see weather the gauge work in that or not.

Yes my PC has SimConnect installed.

My operating system is 7 64 so I installed version 64 of VC++2013 . Windows did not allow me to install 86 version.

and my panel cfg is the same as you posted

As written in the manual, you have to install the x86 version of the libraries.

I'm running Seven x64 as well, but Fsx/P3D are x86, then you need to install x86 libs.

 

I don't see why your OS would forbid that.

I use the 2D version in the VC as a popup without the Bendix shell. The gauge works perfectly using the middle mouse wheel to activate the various modes, change range, tilt and gain. 

 

In my case, the Bendix shell tended to mask the labeling of the above features, so using "the black square" is actually preferred.

Thanks Roland it now works perfectly.I think it would be good if you include an opener for this version of your gauge like Bryns'. How cloud I assign a key for opening this gauge without using FSX Menu Bar?
