It is indeed possible, but you'll have to mess with XML scripts, that's not the way we want to go. The events are there in their SDK, so they should work. It's so frustrating that they don't give any priority to it :) Instead they focus on 'crap' like scenery, getting VR to work before they even have DX12 support, etc... Priorities guys!

I just installed the beta on my networked laptop and the plugins on the main machine. In Air Manager, I only see one panel (the blank one :lol:) marked as FS-2020-compatible. Aside the question of a G1000, which may be difficult to do and need time, is there any panel (even an elementary one with perhaps a couple of gauges) ready just to test it in the present beta?

I looked though the forum but didin't come up with a definitive answer.

Thanks and kind regards, Michael

Just answering my own contribution. I found I can select the blank panel and there are MSFS ready instruments for it. Thus, I may an elementary C172 sixpack wich was really easy and it connected and ran fine over the network with MSFS running on the main machine. :D

This was a pleasent experience and I'm ready to take part in the MSFS - Air Manager ride from this point. Originally, I bought Air Manager for AeroflyFS2 time ago which, unfortunately, never really materialized. Thus, I have a working license already which I would like to leverage in MSFS (would be prepared to pay for an update if required).

You guys are definitely doing a great work.

Thanks and kind regards, Michael

It comes with 19 pre-made panels to my counting. But you can of course also create your own.

In the Beta 4.0 which I use the (BETA 14) the only panel marked as "FS" is the blank one. Do I miss something? All the others are FSX, P3D, and/or XP.

Kind regards, Michael

Hi Michael,

Sorry for the good news. You missed nothing.
I am sure with time there will be more.

You could always clone a instrument and make it compatible for FS2020 yourself. We all do that and make adjustments to style etc That is the power of Air Manager.

The panels aren't updated indeed, but you can generally ignore that. It's still a beta :)

Thanks guys, as I said I will follow progress closely. I was actually amazed how flawless Air Manager (even the beta) works right now.

Kind regards, Michael
