ok, these DataRefs are (all) aready used in XP10 (many of them explained and shared here and im X-Plane.org forum) and few are new in XP11 - there are already many topics about that , RTH is based on this things !
for first you need the DataRefEditor (but that´s clear), then the FlyWithLua plugin - http://forums.x-plan...r-xp9-and-xp10/ - put this plugin in the main plugin folder (whatever):\X-Plane 11\Resources\plugins
 
The scripts are very easy to use - se example below:

 

Thanks for the tutorial! I will give it a try this weekend!

Nice Script ... and thats exactly why I wrote my WARNING above :smile:

 

Why? Because its very easy to set up the script and then forget about it ... and when Laminar changes something on their side (the "fast moving target"), and everything looks ugly again, then it happens easily, that you blame (and send bug reports to) Laminar where in reality their change on its own is good ... but only in combination with your script it makes a mess (which you think is a bug, and report)!

 

You say, "nah, won't happen with my script" ? Reality is - and I had numerous such mail conversations in the past years  - that people easily forget or overlook all their changes / tweaks / configs / installations when they find an issue (and usually at the end of the mail exchange its an "ooh ... sorry, ... I forgot that I did this or that ... which messed it all up").

 

So, I repeat: experimenting is cool and nice ... but during a BETA (BETA!) it can become a boomerang :wink: !

 

 

but during a BETA (BETA!) it can become a boomerang

 

That's why the prudent user cleans up his folders before updating, or even better, uses two installs, one for experimenting and one for a vanilla version. Which can be done with XP.

But thanks for reminding us, Andras.

 

 

Tried that, however lua engine stops upon loading.

 

Got it, syntax error found and corrected.  :rolleyes:

In an ideal world, YES :smile:

But my text was not meant for those who understand this (and act accordingly) but for those many - partly new - users who are just new to the fun and (understandably) grab every cool new tweak ... and then forget about it and are in for a bad awakening :smile: (and my experience proved over and over that there are more than enough users like that out there).

Oh - LUA is working?  I thought it was busted?  How can I get these set for good?

You have to build a LUA script...then place it in the LUA Scripts folder.   Now..when in the sim....at the start of the load in...and you are sitting at your airport, the ***red*** LUA STOPPED in the top right will show.  You need to go to your Plug In pull down, and open up the LUA engine...and at the bottom, RESTART the Lua Engine. It will now stay engaged. If you move to another airport...the same things happens. The LUA engine kicks out...and you only have to manually restart it.  Then all is fine again.

Got it, syntax error found and corrected.  :rolleyes:

What was the syntax error?

The proposal to restart the lua engine did not work for me. So I studied the Lua debug file and it told me that some of the controls were not existing. I then looked up the dataref plugin and came to the following solution:

 

set("sim/private/controls/atmo/atmo_scale_raleigh", 30.0)

set("sim/private/controls/atmo/inscatter_gain_mie", -0.5)

set("sim/private/controls/atmo/inscatter_gain_raleigh", 8) 

set("sim/private/controls/atmo/scatter_raleigh_b", 75.0)

set("sim/private/controls/atmo/scatter_raleigh_g", 9.4) 

set("sim/private/controls/atmo/scatter_raleigh_r", 5.6)

set("sim/private/controls/hdr/gain_min", 2.0)

set("sim/private/controls/hdr/sky_gain", 8.0)

set("sim/private/controls/hdr/white_point", 2.2) 

set("sim/private/controls/fog/std_deviation_cutoff", 0.5)

set("sim/private/controls/dome/kill_glares", 1.0)

set("sim/private/controls/clouds/spec_gain", 20.0)

 

The most important one for me is the kill_glares entry. The banding made me nuts.

I dialed the spec_gain back to 20 from 30, still too much IMO. 

Will try a couple of different values to find visuals to my liking. This is all very much up to personal taste. 

 

 

This is all very much up to personal taste.

 

Exactly...very subjective.  Without the RTH interface experimenting is a little more tedious, but it can still be done with the sim running which is good.

That's why the prudent user cleans up his folders before updating, or even better, uses two installs, one for experimenting and one for a vanilla version. Which can be done with XP.

But thanks for reminding us, Andras.

Thats the way how I'm using my X-Plane and (tweaks). I make always a backup and own a clean "version" of X-Plane. Thank you Andras for remindig us, I forgot to say that, sorry. For me as a "long time user" that's clear and there is also a reminder from Laminar (or Ben Supnik) that this Datarefs are undocumented and only used for debugging and it could be that some of them are not included in the following versions of X-Plane!

That was really a simple help and explanation how to use the script, from my side.

:-)

Yep    this one is indispensable

 

set("sim/private/controls/dome/kill_glares", 1.0))

 

Thank you

Cool shot. Mind sharing the coordinates?
