Double J Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 What is it? Can you use it instead of a registered version of FSUIPC. Looking for an easy way to properly assign all my throttles and buttons. I don't feel like paying 35 bucks to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f16jockey_2 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 No luck, LINDA (Lua Integrated Non-complex Device Assigning) is freeware, but requires a registered (payware) version of FSUIPC. Here's the site http://fs-linda.com/ I'm studying plain Lua for the moment, to program the LEDs on my Saitek X52Pro. Dunno if using Linda would ease things up. Will try it once I'm really comfortable with Lua (which does all I need for now). BTW Lua is also free, but also requires a registered FSUIPC.

torkermax Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Linda is used to sense var inputs . (It's not for potentiometer inputs/Axises). That's accomplished using FSUIPC axis assignment. Dont think it can be used as an output to trigger leds. I use Linda for my homemade hardware inputs. LED lighting is accomplished through switch closer wiring and Axis assignments per FSUIPC..

pvarn Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Ah OK. I knew what LUA was but didn't realize a LINDA acronym was being used. My opinion is the guys above are right. Registered FSUIPC is needed to give LUA access to FSX. -Pv- 2 carrot salad, 10.41 liter bucket, electric doorbell, 17 inch fan, 12X14, 85 Dbm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torkermax Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 FSUIPC will be the best FS invest you can make! Specially if your into assigning buttons etc! The adding linda to get even more flexibility per aircraft because not all addons use default variables.

Mark Hurst Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 What is it? Can you use it instead of a registered version of FSUIPC. Looking for an easy way to properly assign all my throttles and buttons. I don't feel like paying 35 bucks to do it. As you will know from other responses, it requires FSUIPC. The immediate advantage of LINDA is it gives you access to pre-made scripts for many payware aircraft that cannot be programmed directly from FSX or FSUIPC. Such libraries can be done with raw FSUIPC - using Lua code in each case - but the LINDA framework makes it much more accessible and in particular does away with the need to use a numeric parameter to distinguish between functions. (The Aerosoft Twin Otter Extended library, for example, has several hundred functions.) You will find that a lot of work has gone into exposing the internals of popular payware aircraft such as the A2A 172, 182 and Cherokee in a way that allows you to program them to your buttons and switches. Here's of using a LINDA library made by someone else. MarkH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LED lighting is accomplished through switch closer wiring and Axis assignments per FSUIPC.. On the Saitek the LEDs can adressed done through Lua function calls to some "saitek.dll" library (think it's meant for X-plane originally). Anyway, I got it working with raw FSUIPC and Lua. This means I don't have to bother Linda ? Wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
