AxisAndOhs 3.50 has been uploaded to SimMarket and JustFlight. It is already available on SimMarket, JustFlight will probably deploy it on Monday.
The X-Plane version of AAO has been delayed in favor of the P3D V6 variant. The XP version will come at a later time.

• Change: added Prepar3d V6 variant
• Change: Option to export multiple templates in one go
• Change: Added "Filter" boxes to selected template/config selection dialogs

• Bugfix: RPN: Conversations: (END) can be used in a line that contains other code too
• Bugfix: Gauges: Update frequency inaccurate, lagging behind

AxisAndOhs version 3.20 build 43 has been uploaded to the shops today. You can get the new version (only) from your account on SimMarket/Justflight.
Be advised - with this version the default IP ports change to 43380 for the WebAPI and 43280 for the WebFIPs (instead of 9080/8080). This is mostly important for new users, existing users are not affected immediately. Just bear this in mind should you download a new version of an AAO add (StreamDeck plugin!), that you may have to change the port in the plugin.
Another important change is the option to group buttons and axis into color coded "Control Layers". Please take a look into the AAO manual to find out more)
Finally, there is a prototype of a Gauge Editor available on the Desktop Virtual Instruments dialog. This editor is very much a prototype - it works, but it will have quirks or even bugs. The intension is to build this tool up using the feedback from the content creators (hoping that the graphical editor will draw in more people who wish to make sim-external gauges)

This is the changelog:
- IMPORTANT CHANGE: 
  WebAPI: Default Port is now 43380 (instead of 9080)

• Bugfix: Gauges: DesktopFIPs had trouble with BMP files
• Bugfix: Gauges: Desktop and Web FIPs did not process the SizeScale parameter correctly.
• Bugfix: MSFS: LVar to BVar mapping: AAO is not sending 1 (>L:AAO_INPUT_ACTION, Bool) automatically in SU12 mode
• Bugfix: MSFS: manually entered BVars cannot be assigned to buttons directly
• Bugfix: AAO no longer detected empty variable names

AAO version 3.00 has been released today. Although mostly under the hood, the changes in this version are significant.

• Major change: MSFS: with SU12 AAO can access LVars through SimConnect. If there is trouble with this new logic, you can switch the new logic off and go back to the legacy mode in the "Applicaion" menu.
  
  
• Major change: the MIDI library in AAO has been replaced, because the old one is no longer maintained. With the new version the channel number is finally correct (=same as in all other MIDI tools). AAO will automatically migrate all existing MIDI assignments (Buttons, Axis and Combos) to the new channel numbers. A backup of all affected files is created during the process, just in case (See Tools->Create Backup / Restore Database)

Hello @ll,
the Hotfix version 2.81 b05 of AxisAndOhs has just been uploaded to SimMarket and JustFlight. Once it has been deployed to your account there, download and simply install "over" your existing AAO install. Make sure that neither AAO itself nor the simulator are running at that point.
This version is all about fixing bugs:

• Bugfix: RPN: Scripts with A:/E:/P: variables in them were not initialized fully every time
• Bugfix: RPN: Scripts with A:/E:/P: variables in them sometimes would not "fire" on the first call.
• Bugfix: RPN: "+" option is missing for "!...f!" string format
• Bugfix: RPN: Selecting certain variables from the treelist causes an app crash
• Bugfix: Fixed problem where an axis assignment would retain an old value when selecting a new virtual assignment
• Bugfix: Fixed unexpected closing of the app when an empty axis assignment is created
• Bugfix: SaitekPanels and FIPs handler not working with cloned configurations

There is also a new version of the StreamDeck plugin, 14.19, to go with the 2.81

Hello @ll,

AxisAndOhs version 2.80 build 29 has been uploaded to the shops. It is already available on SimMarket, JustFlight should also deploy it in the next couple of days.
The most important change is in the MSFS version - the InGame Panel is now part of the installer, so it will always be there in MSFS (just not active unless you make it so). Please refer to the AAO manual as to what this panel can do (open/close other panels, display web pages, and, most importantly, handle the direct access to the MSFS BVars, making the LVar mappings obsolete!)

Also, there is a new version 14 of the StreamDeck plugin, that now fully supports the StreamDeck "+" too.

Here is the change log:

• Change: MSFS: AAO InGame panel added to the AAO installer
• Change: MSFS: AAO InGame panel can be used to read and write BVars directly from buttons, axis and RPN scripts, without the need for an extra mapping
• Change: Catching process corrupted Exceptions in MIDI initialization
• Change: added text boxes to control left, right margins, center point and deadzone size on the change axis dialog
• Change: added accessibility tags to the Change Axis dialog
• Change: Desktop FIPs: reducing grey line effects when resizing the FIP
• Change: Desktop FIPs: improved performance, image position is only updated when it actually changes
• Change: Clicking on "Connect to simulator" label initiates connection, same as the green LED button
• Change: MSFS: separated helicopter tail rotor pitch and speed events in the axis assignment list
• Change: RPN: unknown A: variables will be read from the simulator directly
• Change: RPN: added seq and iseq operators
• Change: Variable watcher: option to save the list of variable names being watched to disk and to reload it.
• Bugfix: MSFS: Missing landing gear/brake variables added to the internal database
• Bugfix: MSFS: Missing electrical systems events added to the internal database
• Bugfix: Cleaning up virtual files in WebAPI
• Bugfix: RPN: fixed missing initializations in for string script handling
• Bugfix: RPN: String literals not processed correctly when starting with a space character
• Bugfix: RPN: fixed SimConnect flood when scripts were called too quickly in succession
• Bugfix: RPN: (>A: - Variables were not reset properly when changing aircraft

AAO version 2.70 has been uploaded to the shops today
Here is the change log:

• Change: Added ViGEm Interface, so AAO can be used to control games that rely on XBox controllers (SnowRunner and the like)
• Change: Added Virtual Mouse
• Change: Added P3D Camera/View SimConnect methods
• Change: Added new logic for filtering potentiometer noise for axis

• Change: RPN: Additional parametrized "(CALL:scriptgroup-scriptname)" command to call other scripts from RPN code in addition to (>K:scriptgroup-scriptname)
• Change: RPN: Added mousex, mousey, mousecmp commands
• Change: RPN: Added option to replace a color when using LOADIMAGE (useful for gauges)
• Change: RPN: Added (REPLACECOLOR:) command
• Change: RPN: MSFS: added option to use native parametrized events over SimConnect (K:2:, K:3:, K:4:, K:5:)
• Change: RPN: output from testing scripts is no longer written to the clipboard, but to the debug window instead
• Bugfix: Deleted Buttons and Axis were still active until config was reloaded.
• Bugfix: Add Axis crashing when entering an LVar before a controller has been assigned
• Bugfix: Midi axis to vJoy axis doesn't work with direct assignment
• Bugfix: script variable not working for axis assignments
• Bugfix: Changing an existing axis assignment to vJoy leaves the previous varible/event intact.
• Bugfix: Add/Change Axis can leave invalid Axis Min/Max values
• Bugfix: Add/Change Axis can result in the "None" event being assigned
• Bugfix: Dialog for "Hardware change" is ignoring templates
• Bugfix: FSX/P3D not detecting cloned aircraft configs correctly.
• Bugfix: RPN: GOTO not working correctly in multiline scripts

version 2.60 has been released today. 

The biggest change in the 2.60 is, that templates can be linked to your current aircraft too, instead of "applied". "Linking" a template will not copy all buttons, axis etc. into the current configuration, it just references them. So a change in the template will directly affect all aircraft that have a link to it.
This should make sharing (and especially updating!) templates much easier.

Here is the rest of the changes:

- Change: Templates: option to exclude all scripts from template export
- Change: Templates: AAO asks if you want to overwrite an existing template when importing it again.
- Change: Templates: Option to create an empty template in Offline Mode
- Change: RPN: added bytof, bytol, bytoi operators
- Change: RPN: added "procexist" operator
- Change: RPN: improving performance of RPN parser
- Change: RPN: String query now returns numerical result when string is null
- Change: RPN: KEY_ events can be entered numerically
- Change: RPN: Added (AAO_ONLINE_MODE) and (AAO_OFFLINE_MODE:xxx) commands
- Change: Updated MSFS SDK information, updated MSFS SimConnect DLLs (SU10)
- Change: Updated P3D V5 SDK information
- Change: Gauges: Added FontColorScript, FontHeightScript to GaugeText Desktop/Web FIP elements 
- Change: Gauges: Desktop and Web FIP Handlers can be stopped with the standard "X" button
- Change: Updated to current PMDG 737 MSFS SDK
- Change: BVar mapping LVars now show up in the variables treeview
- Bugfix: Templates: Applying/Merging the same template again was multiplying the autoscripts 
​
- Bugfix: Gauges: Cursor areas on DesktopFIPs not scaling with the gauge
- Bugfix: vJoy interface was not activated if used only in scripts, required at least one button
- Bugfix: vJoy interface not active while RPN Editor is open.
- Bugfix: The result of "Delete Config" and "Empty Config" was not immediately visible in Offline Mode
- Bugfix: NPE when closing RPN Editor when no config has been loaded

AAO 2.51 has been uploaded to the shops yesterday. SimMarket has already deployed it. We got an automated reply from JustFlight that they are on holiday at the moment, so it may take another couple of days until the update is available to JustFlight customers.

• Change: AAO now has an interface to work with vJoy. With that you can send virtual joystick button events or axis to other apps with AAO Axis or Button assignments. For example, you can trigger MSFS features that are only available in MSFS controller assignments (=the camera controls) using a vJoy device instead of keyboard keys. As another example, in Offline Mode you could use AAO as a bridge between your MIDI hardware and any app that has joystick control, for example your racing sim.
• Change: SaitekPanels and FIPs available in offline mode
• Change: Updated Axis/Buttons dialogs so they only accept one outgoing action at a time.
• Change: RPN: Option to select additional scripts to be exported with a Template
• Change: RPN: Option to remove the Edition when exporting scripts
• Change: RPN: added commands for using vJoy events in scripts
• Change: RPN: added slen command (string length)
• Bugfix: Writing to A: variables stopped working after RPN editor has been used
• Bugfix: List of template for Export not sorted
