Updating Knobster plugin

#1 Post by kass »

I have version 1.2 and browsing the wiki page I found out that version 1.4 is available. Do I uninstall 1.2 first to update to version 1.4 ? I couldn't find details on this. Apologies if I missed it somewhere. I am hoping it will also work in X plane 12.
Thank you for this amazing little hardware that has transformed my VR sim flying enjoyment.

Hi,


Don't think it is described anywhere on our wiki.
It is okay to overwrite the folder.

Note that removing the folder prior will also remove any mode selection you have made before, so make sure not to remove the folder completely.

I don't think that we have a change log for KnobXP. Yes it works with 11 and 12.

Thx.
I checked v1.4 with XP11 quickly.
Everything works and is OK, but now (I only use VR) the KnobXP window does not appear "automatically" after entering VR mode.
Of course, "Enable VR" is selected in the options.
I need to open the plugin window (in the top bar of XP) and click on the drop-down menu: "recover window position".
It's a bit of a pain when using VR.
In v1.2, the KnobXP window immediately appeared in VR mode.

It would be great to have a command that could open / close the KnobXP window.

In XP11. In XP12 I did not check because I am still using XP11.
