694B32 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Hi - I'm new here. I only just discovered your software. I currently use Panel Builder but I watched the video and read the information on making your own gauges and that looks a really useful tool to get closer to the variety of aircraft I fly. To help me decide whether to buy your software I wondered if it is possible to create gauges that will read the appropriate lua in non default aircraft? For example when I got the A2A C172 I had to adjust Panel Builder so it read the A2A Lua for rpm (L:Eng1_RPM) rather than the default FSX RPM. I did that using a short lua program as follows: while 1 do -- READING LOCAL VAR Eng_RPM = ipc.readLvar("L:Eng1_RPM") -- WRITING OFFSET ipc.writeDBL(0X66CA, Eng_RPM) -- DELAY ipc.sleep(100) end Is it possible to do something similar with your software.

Corjan Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hi Rich, Air Manager right now can connect to FSX using SimConnect. LVars would make a nice addition, since allot of data can only be fetched using LVars. I time, we will surely implement this, although I cannot say anything sensible (yet) on when that will be. Sorry :) Our first focus right now is finishing up AM 2.1, and creating an iPad application. When I know more, I will surely post something on this forum. Kind regards, Corjan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
694B32 Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Many thanks for the reply Corjan. I'll keep an eye on your site as having access to Lvars and the ability to design gauges would be cockpit heaven for me! Thanks again, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
