streamdeck apps

[4df5 4]

I am looking for any X Plane stream deck apps    for GA planes that work in X plane....I see at least 1 for FS2020 but not sure on X Plane....

any info????

SPAD.next or Axis and Ohs.  SPADs is a lot of mouse clicking.  Axis and Ohs is a lot of programming.

Any plane or plugin with Linux support will work on the steam deck identically to the desktop version of XPlane

Or https://www.elgato.com/en/stream-deck ?

I assumed what he was asking for was an app that would allow him to configure his Streamdeck to work with XPlane aircraft.  Those two apps would do that.

Right, I'd never heard of streamdeck and misread it as steamdeck initially before realising it might not have been.

I have one...replaced my logitech switch panels with it.  It's pretty amazing but a challenge to configure all the screens.

I only simulated fly in VR 😛, got excited because I thought he had a steamdeck.

I found Flight Deck from a German guy..it costs 12$.USD. But it has very few X Plane aircraft....I have been making button assignments on the StreamDeck today. It works good and is tactile. I haven't got into making buttons that can display changing data parameters like altitude and many more. That's tricky. I got buttons made for to switch HDG/NAV/ALT and have several views on buttons.Buts lots to learn still. I don't like the "hats" on joysticks...I wish they weren't on it..Havent found a good video

on programming the difficult buttons yet....

would be great t o have a repository for free button configs that work on the StreamDeck. It can do a lot of cool stuff.

It would be worthwhile to get it going..

well, here is one open source solution for X-Plane and Zibo 737 (or any other plane, if you configure it)

When I first got my Streamdeck, I programmed keys to fire off start commands to simple Python programs on the PC  which modified parameters in the XP-Engine. For instance from clear to bad visibility or wind sundenly, basically to throw situations at myself on approachor turn on/off switches

I cannot find the code for the Python progs any more but I think I used an API (getDREF/sendDREF) from Nasa to talk to the XP engine with Python. All the Streamdeck butto did was to trigger the Python program. Also the concept  works nice on Arduino and Raspberry

Glasairman,

By any chance, did you implement any timing delays into your 'situations' uses and/or use failures in your training?
