Works perfect. Only issue with F/A-18 is no weapon release effect coming through. CM and guns working fine.

thanks, I will take a look what's up with F-18 weapon release

You mean via telemetry? Almost everything, there's full access to the hardware FFB features

Magpie•1/30/23, 12:34 PM

What is telemetry?

walmisOP•1/30/23, 12:35 PM

DCS can export live data about what's going on: https://wiki.hoggitworld.com/view/DCS_export

DCS export

walmisOP•1/30/23, 12:36 PM

We can use this to add additional FFB effects

Phantom•1/30/23, 12:45 PM

great stuff, thanks

Magpie•1/30/23, 12:53 PM

Ah cool. I wonder if it adds any lag or stuttering

walmisOP•1/30/23, 1:36 PM

nope, it runs in a separate process

Do share your changes, I'll integrate into the main branch

PiNKSH!T•1/31/23, 5:56 AM

Would something like this be possible for other games? msfs2020 is the main one I'm thinking of?

walmisOP•1/31/23, 6:08 AM

yeah, the same framework can be used to integrate SimConnect telemetry also

Virus•1/31/23, 6:09 AM

I did not dig into it yet, but it is possible to implement moving trim for modules which should have and doesn't support it (like the harrier and the mig-19...yes all by razbam)

walmisOP•1/31/23, 6:11 AM

I haven't figured out yet how to get trim values from DCS export.lua, not sure if at all possible.

Virus•1/31/23, 6:15 AM

Well I think maybe you should get in contact with razbam as my IFE friends showed me it's easy to implement moving trim...with the 339 they did just in one hour work

walmisOP•1/31/23, 6:16 AM

But that's internal to the module

walmisOP•1/31/23, 6:16 AM

I imagine it would be tricky to control trim externally

PiNKSH!T•1/31/23, 6:21 AM

RAZBAM, I asked them on their Discord about what FFB the F-15 E will come out with, his reply gave me no hope, he wasn't even sure if the F-15 was fly-by-wire or not, it's not only the newest Saudi version is. When I told him it wasn't fly-by-wire he informed me I should do the research of what effects the pilot would of felt by asking people in their discord, yeah so very low expectations from Razbam. Although now that Walmis has made this awesome DCS telemetry effects app I guess it doesn't matter what they do or don't add

Virus•1/31/23, 6:22 AM

I know

Virus•1/31/23, 6:22 AM

But no one is asking them fancy effects

Virus•1/31/23, 6:22 AM

For that we can use telemetry

Virus•1/31/23, 6:23 AM

But the basics....the moving trim is essential

walmisOP•1/31/23, 6:23 AM

Yeah, they could implement this even with an old MSFF2

ddrake1984•1/31/23, 6:39 AM

the fact you can get the telem for most aircraft is really cool

Wwalmis I imagine it would be tricky to control trim externally

roller25.•1/31/23, 8:35 AM

Could there be a solution like how XPForce implements trim for MSFS2020 maybe?

NITE 107 | Snake•1/31/23, 8:36 AM

For A/C where trim works by moving the stick could we eliminate the game entirely and just bind the trim keys and use that to move the virtual center point?

NITE 107 | Snake•1/31/23, 8:37 AM

Then we could use something like the spring effect to give more force needed for greater deflections and still “feel” trim by moving the neutral position

NITE 107 | Snake•1/31/23, 8:37 AM

Only major downside is we would need a reset button to for respawn

walmisOP•1/31/23, 5:41 PM

no, it needs to be populated. As it's open source patches are welcome

skyPickle•1/31/23, 5:46 PM

ok, where does on find the necessary arguments to put in the 'get_argument_value' call?

skyPickle•1/31/23, 5:48 PM

for example , where did you find them for the Dora?

walmisOP•1/31/23, 5:54 PM

this is an entire can of worms - you have to search through module lua files: for example cockpit arguments are listed in (for mig-21) "DCS World\Mods\aircraft\MIG-21bis\Cockpit\mainpanel_init.lua"

skyPickle•1/31/23, 8:27 PM

OMG. you are a hero for doing the planes you already did. I have written some lua files for the streamdeck plugin CTytler made (This allows a streamdeck to receive data from the module in DCS , display the state of the control in DCS, as well as send data back to DCS to change the state of the control - like flaps, gear, etc). I can look at what you did and reverse engineer the source. There are several identifiers a button can have so it's not always straightforward.

roller25.•1/31/23, 8:40 PM

Just asked a trim question on the Razbam F15E discord (seems have a few tossers over there).. so apparently the stick has autotrim, but also moves with trim input...

Yeah, it's diagonal right now, you can change the angles here, all are set to 45 now, 0 would be fro
