GPWS Altitude Callouts for every plane

Hi Community I´ve just programmed a little instrument, it´s providing the GPWS Callouts at and below 500ft during final. It´can be used for all planes I guess, needs only adapting the landing flaps value. At the CJ4 its easy, except non normal activities it has to be FLAPS HANDLE INDEX of 2. You als...

Re: RNP scripts working in version 4.1

Salut Gilles Thanks again for your great help. For my use the mainpanel is completed, except the EPR value, which might not been offered by the Lvars. Since I´m dependend of Pop-outs I won´t add the X-Plane compatibility. The X-Plane 12 default MD-80 misses switches and system depth for even the Nor...

When I pause the sim (active pause) it´s showing the correct values and the dial is working. Hmm. what makes the difference of a...

Re: Trick against stucking flight controls when mousepointer at cutout

Here are two examples if someone needs a template.
The PFD cutout is filled with 1% of black colour, The ND has a small window at the upper right corner for clicking through left (hard to see :D )

Kind regards,
Herbert

Same when you have a cutout of your AM overlay, as the PFD frame or CDU overlay. The trick is, when you fil...

Trick against stucking flight controls when mousepointer at cutout

Hi If you, as me are using mouse instead of touch, and stay with the mousepointer at a pop-out panel cutout, the flight controls will be stuck (MSFS issue). My trick is, I fill the cutouts with a layer of 99% transparency, you won´t see, but the flight controls don´t get stuck. With all these glass ...

Re: PMDG 737-700 instrument collection

Is in the German manual missing "You also need to add this entry to the 737_Options.ini file of FS2020:
[SDK]
EnableDataBroadcast=1
