AxisAndOhs 2.23 released

12/17/2021

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,

AxisAndOhs 2.23 has been released today. SimMarket will usually deploy it in a couple of hours. JustFlight will take longer this time, we got an “out of office” reply from our contact there - he will be back on Monday)

Changes in AxisAndOhs version 2.23
  • Change: re-tuned the “fast turn” logic
  • Change: BVar: removed trigger var when inserting into scripts, it is no longer necessary
  • Change: “Skip” Button actuations if a controller sends unwanted signals
  • Change: Redesigned the Desktop/Web FIP initialization logic
  • Change: Variable and Event watcher windows resizable
  • Change: RPN: Script database is saved after every change
  • Change: RPN: Autoscript selection with groups
  • Change: RPN: “Test” button reveals last calculation result, even when there is no assignment
  • Change: RPN Editor: No dots when Ctrl&C ing from lower script box
  • Change: Additional AAO events for tiller on/off/toggle
  • Change: added option to select a specific langauge for voice recognition

  • Bugfix: Close Observer windows when closing AAO
  • Bugfix: BVars: Avoid app crash when content folder does not exist.
  • Bugfix: RPN syntax check not recognizing H: vars
  • Bugfix: RPN << and >> operators reversed
  • Bugfix: Desktop/Web/Saitek FIPs didn’t understand nonlinear structures with degrees
  • Bugfix: Threading conflict in script handler
  • Bugfix: fixed errors on the dialog for entering manual custom variables
  • Bugfix: Changing a script in the RPN editor doesn’t update the script cache.

MSFS USERS PLEASE REMEMBER TO ACTIVATE YOUR BVAR MAPPINGS AGAIN - INSTALLING AN AAO UPDATE RESETS THEM TO DEFAULT!

Remember to get the new StreamDeck plugin too - new exciting gauges are coming soon from the hard working authors of StreamDeck profiles and those will require version 6 of the plugin.

AxisAndOhs 2.22 released

11/18/2021

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,

AxisAndOhs 2.22 has just been released and uploaded to the shops. Please give them a bit of time to deploy it. With SimMarket, you should receive a notification via email when it is done.
  • Major change: merged the current MSFS default variables and events into the selection dialogs
  • Major Bugfix: Trigger events for axis not working correctly has been fixed. Unfortunately this bug has introduced invalid trigger settings in all axis that are based on events. This is corrected in 2.22, but that happens on a global scale. If you have axis assignments that are meant to be triggers, those will have to be revisited and the trigger mode reset to Both/Up/Down.

  • Change: New RPN script editor GUI element
  • Change: Tracking dialogs for default simulator events and variables
  • Change: AxisMin/Max fields: direct text input enabled (doubleclick the field)
  • Change: added A: option on the customvar input dialog
  • Change: Revert blacklisted MIDI devices if they are not the same “thing” anymore
  • Change: handling Min/Max Axis ranges that don’t have a center.
  • Change: BVARs: “1·(>L:AAO_INPUT_ACTION, Bool)” no longer necessary
  • Change: RPN: Filter for RPN scripts on the editor
  • Change: RPN: script variables are no local to the call
  • Change: Touch events for DesktopFIPs
  • Change: option to disregard the MIDI device IDs and use the channel number only

  • Bugfix: RPN: Fixed hex and octal numbers
  • Bugfix: RPN: “?” RPN reading the stack backwards

There is also a new version of the StreamDeck plugin, the 5.03. This version allows the authors of SD profiles to embed script code directly into the profile (writing to and reading from script code), so they don’t have to ship separate script import files (this is fully optional, it can be done either way)

AxisAndOhs 2.21 released

10/22/2021

Hello @ll

version 2.21 has just been sent to the shops. It should be deployed shortly.
  • Main change 1: GUI redesign of the Button and Axis assignment dialogs
    ​
  • Main change 2: MSFS: Mapping BVars to LVars: This is an experimental feature that hacks into the MSFS input event logic to bind B: input events to LVars of your choice, so you can call these input events from RPN scripts.

  • Change: Desktop FIPs are shown in the task bar now.
  • Change: Direct input option in the down/up numerical controls of the button dialogs.
  • Change: RPN: reading flight plan data into LVARs
  • Change: RPN: option to access local LVars anywhere as macros with @lvar
  • Change: RPN: check for self calling script reworked
  • Change: RPN: added (RANDOMSOUND) command
  • Change: RPN: clicking on a script group in the treelist selects it in the editor

  • Bugfix: Exception when re-assigning midi axis
  • Bugfix: After creating a new script, the “Update” button is now activated
  • Bugfix: Saitek Multipanel could dial in negative altitudes
  • Bugfix: RPN: One-shot autoscripts were not reset when a plane is loaded

About the BVars… this feature is a little more involved than usual and strictly experimental. It will probably not work for all BVar implementations out there (but there is a work around described in the manual if it doesn’t)
Please make sure (!) to read the chapter about that in the AAO manual for MSFS. Also, it may be a good idea to run AAO “As Administrator” when creating configurations with the BVar module.

Changes in AxisAndOhs version 2.20

  • Change: RPN: two new ops: lldist and llbrg (distance and bearing between two lat/lon points)
  • Change: RPN: (SOUND:) and (SOUNDLOOP:) can play audio in parallel now (so you can have some background sounds and then play the flight attendant announcement on top of them).

  • Bugfix: Axis dialogs not recognizing trigger events
  • Bugfix: MIDI axis not working correctly with virtual keys
  • Bugfix: Script initialization delay can lead to exceptions “unknown RPN op”

Hello @ll,

As of 1st of September 2021, all sales operations of Lorby-SI will cease. 

All payware assets and IPR have been transferred to our partner company "Lorby Wildfire Response Inc." in Canada, a subsidiary of "Wildfire Training Solutions Inc." handling all matters software.

In a first step, the "vendor" in the various shops will be changed to reflect the new owner effective immediately. Over the next few weeks all other assets (websites, screenshots, manuals etc.) will be adapted to reflect the new ownership too. And there will be another shop of our own where you can purchase the Lorby products.

Lorby-SI will still exist, but it is just a contractor now, handling development and support as required.


Best regards
Oliver Binder

Hello @ll,

Hotfix 2.09 b04 is out.

This fixes the issue with the slider type axis..

This version also has a new button on the "Add/Change Button" dialogs to suppress the currently visible input event. This should help if you have a stuck button or encoder on your devices somewhere.

Other bugfixes:
  • LEDs getting stuck for slow/fast turn button configurations
  • App crash when selecting “None” on the axis assignment dialogs
  • Range protection cuts LVar values
  • Saitek Panels not remembering the operation mode automatically

AxisAndOhs new version 2.08 released

6/28/2021

0 Comments

 
Hello @ll,

AAO 2.08 has been released today.

This version is mostly about stability and bugfixes. A lot has changed under the hood concerning the handling of controller events.

here is the change log:

Significant changes:
  • The input event processing logic has been redesigned, so it works the same for all input devices.
  • The startup and connection sequence of the app has been redesigned. The app will now try to wait until the aircraft has finished loading before it establishes the various data connections. This is to avoid problems with certain addon aircraft that don't like it if LVars are assigned too early in the process.

Individual changes:
  • Change: Scripts: The output of the "Test" button is always copied to the clipboard, so you can Ctrl&V it into a text editor
  • Change: MSFS: AAO tries to match aircraft liveries to existing profiles for this particular aircraft addon
  • Change: the current simulator flight plan can be copied to the clipboard (Menu item in "Extras").
  • Change: static Macros can be used in the Desktop/WebFIP logic
  • Change: Local variables will retain their values when 
  • Change: MIDI Out now supports program change events
  • Change: it is possible now to access string variables in the WebAPI (for example to show the call sign on the StreamDeck)
  • Change: When assigning templates you now have the choice of what to merge exactly (so only parts of a template can be loaded into the current config)
  • Change: Saitek Panels: all controls now fully event based, MIDI mode can be configured for individual aircraft now, option to override the output variabls in MIDI mode
  • Change: Add/Change button dialogs: input value boxes now unlimited in range (to accomodate PMDG DC-6 ROTOR_BRAKE event triggers)
  • Change: Added startup error device file to catch instances where the app would not start fully when incompatible devices are connected.
  • Bugfix: Blacklisting MIDI devices crashed the app
  • Bugfix: Add/Change Button dialogs had trouble handling gamepads
  • Bugfix: Combo Buttons were only working when pressed before the actual button
  • Bugfix: Long/short clicks were duplicating
  • Bugfix: Local variables were not retaining their values when the app recovered from a SimConnect crash
  • Bugfix: custom variable import used incorrect headers
  • Bugfix: SOUND took precedence over everything else in scripts
  • Bugfix: Global automated script dialogs not handling duplicates correctly

If you are using the Elgato StreamDeck plugin, please make sure to download the new version 4.12 from the AxisAndOhs website
