I just put the RCS code into a very specific vessel and it works fine. Even my framerate doubled, because the your Simplex implementation is faster than the Gauss-Jordan which I had.

Darrenc, I like your code very much. There are vessels which really need it. Sometimes, ideas in this forum are months ahead of their time. ;-) Thank you!

Good question! The server application is a standalone application. It requires Windows and the VC runtime package, nothing else. If it asks for a QLIB DLL, just delete the USBTTL-Input module (a dll in the same folder as the server application).

Yes, you were right. I did not mention anything here because I did not want to put myself under pressure. My primary goal is to create a very stable and well-throught-out addon. And this takes time. The client module was originally part of a vessel addon. I had to do a major refactoring in...

Link fixed. Should work now.

NetMFD could be a solution ... During my student research project, I have built a professional simpit - and written a plugin which can distribute MFD instruments over a TCP/IP network. (The research project is referenced on the Orbiter website.) However, I have been refining and refactoring the...

The Client seems to have a Problem with black transparent color key in 2D panels. The black area is not transparent, but black. I am using white (0xFFFFFF) now and it works.

Wow, that was quick! I think I will keep the links for some months. But you can make a copy if you like.

Again: I have written a Network-MFD addon as part of my thesis. It is now published: http://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=14784 Advantage: - You can use as many MFDs as you want to over the network. - Easy to install, easy to build, schematics available. Disadvantage: - Requires...

Thank you! Glad you like it. :-) This would be great. The more people make use of it, the better.

Hi, I've just completed a my thesis: A Simpit Framework and the exemplary implementation of a Soyuz-TMA simpit. I am posting the Presentation first: (German, but many pictures) http://mymp3s.de/Studienarbeit_Abschlusspraesentation_20100310.pdf Full thesis with explanations and code examples...

I have the same problem that Puma mentioned. I have copied a fully working version of Orbiter on my USB stick. - On my Laptop, FBW works. - In my desktop PC it does not show up in the Extras-List. Orbiter does not mention it in its log. My conclusion: must have something to do with the...

The Russians experimented with extreme ballistic coefficients: http://www.astronautix.com/craft/irdt.htm I think this way of re-entry is pretty cool because you reduce peak heat loads. Of course, you must get rid of the same orbital energy, but you have more time for surrounding (residual)...

Yes. I'm doing the project at my university. We want to build a soyuz-style simpit to train students. So, having a mouse in the cockpit would be .... strange. Simulation should be as realistic as possible. There actually IS a pointing device in real Soyuz!!! Well but .... it's not really a mouse.

Yes, CameraMFD does not work when the focus switches to another vehicle. So far, this is the only limitation I have encountered. But I interpret this as a CameraMFD-issue, not as an issue of the ExtMFD ....

Exactly what I was worrying about. But obviously there's not a big problem. I even had 600x600-Frames running over the network and it was not even closely exceding the capacity! Now I'm using 300x300 frames and scale them up by factor 2 after receiving (very easy in GDI). I've set the MFD...

My implementation is based on the external MFD code, which is included in the orbitersdk. On the main screen (see image attached to my post above), you can see a small white dot in the upper left corner of the display. This is what's left from the external MFD. Basically, every time the window...

Hello together, just yesterday I have finished a Client-Server-MFD system. How it works: 1.) You compile my "NetMFD.cpp" into your spacecraft-dll. 2.) You give your spacecraft-dll a list of IP-adresses (one for each MFD) 3.) You install the MFD-Server on each of your laptops. I'm using some...
