Re: AM 3.0 BETA (windows + raspberry pi)

Don't know if you've made up your mind on this, but can we expect there will be an upgrade path for previous owners of AM, with a lesser price than for new customers? Most of the "old customers" have produced at least one valuable gauge and contributed to the store, so I got the feeling th...

Re: FSX pausing when clicking on AM Panel

As they say in the famous HHGTTG: "Don't Panic!" 8-) I had the same problem last year and got the answer on the forum, so here it is: You should uncheck the "Allow pause switching between tasks" option ( my own FSX version is in French so it's a loose translation) in the Options/...

Re: ATR Guages Engines and systems

Very nice work Jml79, Skinman is definitely the tool for this. A small remark: the red mark seems slightly wider in reality, as well as the green arc. And the right and left slanted black pads(?) should be the same size according to the pics. Forgive me for this, I'm an Architect... :oops: A high fi...

Re: Six pack in progress

No problem Russ, I'll continue with my project the way I intend it. I won't add any switches though as I already have them in my hardware custom panel, nor the radio set, but these can be easily added afterwards the way I described if needed. I expect to be finished with this set of instruments by t...

Re: Six pack in progress

Here's a quick and dirty setup of what I meant previously.
the ASPEN is already prepositionned, and is set to overlap the main instruments

What do you think?

Re: Six pack in progress

FYI, we have a serious (free) competitor for this kind of panel for XP, that's exactly what I intend to do in AM: b58-left.jpg https://simvim.blogspot.fr/p/baron-58.html But what I like in AM is to get my hands dirty and setup my panel the way I want, and replace the six pack by an ASPEN by a simple...

Re: Six pack in progress

Russ my ten cents: In my own experience, I figured that trying to cram too much gauges in the same physical screen ends up with the gauges being too small and unrealistic. The standard size for the primary instrument is 8cm (3"1/2) diameter, period. Secondary ones, such as OAT or temperature ar...

Re: P-51D cockpit build

All is well now, I had seen the blue sky in the Attitude indicator in the pics.

Thanks for telling me.

Re: Six pack in progress

I saw that. My goal is to get a working touch panel to demo at FlightSimCon with AM 3.0. I hope to gave the Baron and Cessna ready to demo, one on FSX and one on X-Plane. Below is my first concept layout to start with since I can't show the incomplete full panel yet...too many missing elements. I m...
