FSUIPC7 voor MSFS uitgekomen

Vandaag is versie 7 van FSUIPC uitgebracht, gericht op Microsoft Flight Simulator. Deze interface is een soort tussenlaag tussen Flight Simulator en andere hard/software en zorgt onder andere voor mapping van hardware en uitlezen van waardes uit de sim die weer in andere oplossingen gebruikt kunnen worden (bijv. weergave van TCAS in payware vliegtuigen). FSUIPC7 is nu verkrijgbaar bij simMarket en kost nieuw zo’n €30. Bestaande gebruikers kunnen voor zo’n €18 een upgrade uitvoeren. Uiteraard is er ook nog de gratis versie. Bekijk de features van de betaalde versie hieronder.

 

Joystick control facilities:

  • Facilities for joystick calibration – specifically, more accurate setting of dead zones and centres.
  • Joystick mapping for multi-engined aircraft throttles
  • Facilities for reverse thrust adjustment on each throttle, or via a separate reverser,
  • Joystick button programming, for any Flight Sim control, including those not available in FS’s own assignment menu.
  • Joystick buttons can also be made to produce key-presses, for instance when this is the only way to control an add-on aircraft panel or other accessory.
  • Joystick button assignments for use by WideFS clients on Networked PCs.
  • All button assignments programmable separately for press and release
  • Facilities for analogue flap and spoiler setting, with detentes.
  • Facilities for analogue elevator trim setting ( rudder and aileron to come).
  • PFC COM-port connected devices, operating through our PFCP3D4.DLL driver, can also have their switches and buttons programmed using the same facilities.
  • Capabilities for all of these things to be specific to an aircraft, automatically changing when you change aircraft.

Direct axis assignments

  • Facilities for asignment of any Windows API (not DirectInput) joystick axis to any FS axis control, or sequences of other controls dependent upon axis range and direction of change.
  • Axes can be read as Windows Game controler calibrated values, or direct as ‘Raw’ values for setting specific values.
  • Capabilities for these things to be specific to an aircraft, automatically changing when you change aircraft.

Key press programming facilities:

  • Key-press programming, for any Flight Sim control, including those not available in FS’s own assignments dialogues.
  • FS controls can be sent with fixed parameter, for use in setting specific analogue values.
  • Key-press combinations including SHIFT, TAB and CTRLas extra shifts, for many more assignment possibilities.
  • Key-press assignments for use by WideFS7 clients on Networked PCs
  • All key-press operations programmable separately for press and release, and for specific aircraft or general.

Other features:

  • Lua programming interface/interpreter for advanced control
  • Advanced logging facilities
