AxisAndOhs feature update 2.01

1/11/2021

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,

AAO version 2.01 has been released today.
​
  • The „endless“ setting for MIDI encoders has been fixed. When it is activated, it will make the app repeat the command that has been assigned to a control when it is at the stops (rotary with stops or a slider). For example, when you adjust the AP altitude, you could use a slider. This will work normally in the range that it can travel, and at the stops it will just continue counting up/down until you move it the other way again
  • SimConnect Errors will be caught in most cases now, reducing the probability of a hard crash
  • The “Test” button on the script editor has been fixed
    ​This button will now also show the result of a script, so you can use it to query variable values from the sim etc.
  • Global automated scripts have been fixed
  • The “Read HVARs from sim” feature now finds all kinds of things from MSFS – for example undocumented K: - Events and A: Variables.
  • Again several changes under the hood, like running heavy processing in even more separate threads and SimConnect clients

AxisAndOhs 2.0 upgrade

12/30/2020

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,

AxisAndOhs version 2.0 has been released today.

With this version you will have access to the internal LVars and HTML - Variables, that are used to control the buttons on the G1000etc. instruments in the glass cockpits of MSFS.

This version includes many fixes and improvements that have been requested by users. The WebAPI has been expanded as well, which made it possible to implement a Bridge program to the VRI MCP Combo II device in a very short time. This Bridge program will be available shortly as a free download.

This is a free upgrade for previous owners, just download it again from you account in the shop. It has already been deployed to SimMarket, JustFlight should follow shortly.

Best regards

AxisAndOhs feature update 1.77

12/4/2020

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,

AxisAndOhs feature update 1.77 has been uploaded to the shops today. It should be available in your account shortly.

Here are the release notes:

Changes in AxisAndOhs version 1.77

Major change 1: This version changes the naming and sorting convention for assigned button items. This will happen automatically the first time that you run AAO. Before doing this, the app creates a special backup file with your previous database in C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\LORBY_SI\LorbyAxisAndOhs

Major change 2: When using MIDI devices, the AAO app did not distinguish between Note and CC messages correctly. This lead to duplicate controller actions when in reality there were none on the hardware. This has been fixed, but it will be required to check and reassign especially rotary encoders again. 

- Change: option to duplicate button assignments.
- Change: Added MSFS events for managed/selected speed, altitude, heading and VS.
- Change: Saitek Switchpanel now only processes button events for those buttons that have actually changed
- Change: Option to run automates scripts on a global level (=for every aircraft). This will be more convenient when using Elgato StreamDeck or MIDI Out
- Change: Add and Change button dialog now have tool tipps on the textboxes that can contain long strings
- Change: When assigning a template you have the choice now if it should overwrite the current aircraft config or merge with it. With the latter you can now create partial templates, for example with your MIDI or StreamDeck assignments, that you can merge into any other config without overwriting what is already there.

- Bugfix: MIDI "Toggle" type button events fixed for Behringer X-Touch
- Bugfix: The MFD instrument did not calculate the waypoint positions correctly (magnetic heading instead of true)

****************************
Please make sure to visit axisandohs.weebly.com/downloads to get the advanced sample gauges like the Airbus type PFD and MFD
*****************************

Elgato StreamDeck
On axisandohs.weebly.com/downloads you will find a sample implementation of an Elgato StreamDeck PlugIn that uses the AAO WebAPI to communicate with the simulator.
This plugin technology is bidirectional (=data can be read from the simulator too, not only sent to it), this makes it possible to use the StreamDeck for annunciations.

Best wishes and stay safe

Asobo A320: managed/selected AP mode

11/19/2020

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,
I just stumbled upon another case of non-published sim events. There are events to switch between managed and selected AP modes, but they are not in the SDK documentation.

K:SPEED_SLOT_INDEX_SET
K:VS_SLOT_INDEX_SET
K:HEADING_SLOT_INDEX_SET
K:ALTITUDE_SLOT_INDEX_SET
​
In the current version of AxisAndOhs you have to create two RPN scripts for each of those. For exampe for the speed mode:
  1. “Managed Speed Mode” with the code "2·(>K:SPEED_SLOT_INDEX_SET)"
  2. “Selected Speed Mode” with the code "1·(>K:SPEED_SLOT_INDEX_SET)"
Assign these scripts to buttons as desired.
I will add these events to the native list in the next version of AAO.
Best regards

AxisAndOhs feature update 1.76

11/15/2020

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,

version 1.76 now sports an API based on simple web technology (XMLHttpRequests and JSONP). It supports button events, triggering of simulator event IDs, reading and writing of simulator variables.

This can be used for example in HTML/Javascript based flight instruments or in plugins for the Elgato StreamDecks, to access the simulator directly.

Hello @ll,

the AAO version 1.73 has been deployed to the shops.

- Redesigned the layout of the assignment dialogs to make it clearer which input field is currently active

- Fixed bug where the axis would move slightly in the opposite direction when using curve and deadzone together

- Fixed the bug where the flaps detents box was partially obscured

- Fixed the instances where a split axis must be handled as a slider when applying a curve (MSFS: toe brakes, throttle, propeller, mixture)

- Keyboard and MIDI combos can be used with axis too

- Expanded RPN scripting and gauge logic

Please make sure to visit axisandohs.weebly.com/downloads to get the new advanced gauges like the Airbus type PFD and MFD

AxisAndOhs development blog 1.73

10/10/2020

Hello @ll,

Development progresses with AxisAndOhs.

The next version 1.73 will have more features for the Desktop/Web FIP gauges that make it possible to have a simple PFD and NAV display on your phone/tablet or on a separate monitor. Those instruments are intended to be used with MSFS, they may not work 100% in the other sims. The gauges will be available as free downloads on the axisandohs.weebly.com site.

In my case, I bought a 13" TFT screen that is connected to the internal Intel GPU, which frees up my 2080ti to only power the sim. Likewise, since the instruments are a feature of AAO, I can set my cockpit view to show only the windows (and reduce the in-sim refresh rate). Undocking sim-internal windows usually has a large impact on FPS, and by avoiding this I find performance to be very good. YMMV.

The version is feature complete and is undergoing testing currently. The release should happen next week.

AxisAndOhs updated to 1.72

10/3/2020

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,
AxisAndOhs has been updated to version 1.72:
  • Changed the layout of the main dialog, uncluttered the Tools menu.
  • For assigned axis it is now possible to set a min / max value. With this you can limit the value range, for example to make the reversers of the Asobo Airbus less powerful (min = -0.2 instead of -1.0)
  • The list of mathematic operation that can be used in RPN scripting and gauges has been expanded to include all legacy ops
  • Fixed the bug that prevented the Saitek Radio Panel from changing KHz correctly when in 8.333 spacing (MSFS only)
  • Added a parameter for the webserver port with the WebFIPs. This can be used to change the port number if you already have other apps in your local LAN/WiFi that are using 8080 (video surveillance, media streaming)

It should be available in your accout on SimMarket or JustFlight in the next few hours.

Don't forget to visit the AxisAndOhs site from time to time to check for new desktop/web flight instruments in the DOWNLOADS section.

Best regards
