IntroductionStatusMFD will depict thrusters, control surfaces and more, graphically on a generic spacecraft schematic.OverviewStatusMFD is compatible with at least the following spacecrafts:DG, DG MkIV, DG-S, DG-R, DGIV, DG EX, DG-XR1, DG-XR1, XR5 Vanguard and Space Shuttle Atlantis.StatusMFD monitors the following functions: Main thrusters (left, right) Retro thrusters (left, right) Hover thrusters (forward, aft) Attitude thrusters (rotations, translations) Rudders Elevators Ailerons Wheel brakes (left, right) Autopilot navigational sequences AF Ctrl: off, pitch, on RCS mode: off, rot, lin Flight status: Landed, In flight, DockedAn help overlay can be activated through a toggle button. The exhaust display for the attitude thrusters can be set to extend linearly or logarithmic. Logarithmic will make the exhaust display more sensitive to low thrusts.A readme file and a comprehensive pdf manual are included.

Review:
 
I cannot use this mfd. It is installed to my Orbiter/modules/plugin directory and enabled in orbiter. But somehow this mfd does not show in the list of mfd's
 
Make sure that the runtime components of Visual C++ 2005 express edition, as well as the runtime components of Visual C++ 2008 the express, as we don't know what compiler the author used to compile this particular add-on.
 
Downloading the 2008 runtime file does the trick.
 
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

The StatusMFD is compiled with the MS C++ 2008 Express edition. So as already pointed out the runtime files for 2008 should make it work.

(I'm on the way to make a drawing interface (C# 2008 Express ed.) where you can design your own schematic with the different attach points. This is a stand alone module which writes to a text file, then read by the StatusMFD in real-time. Should also support non-atmospheric vessels like Shuttle-A with aux. engines)
 
Status MFD ver. 1.1 halfways

Hi!

The project mentioned above with a drawing application for Status MFD is at a halfway point. The image below shows an example drawing for the wellknown DeltaGlider, with marked thrusters (and two flags).

The image after this displays a settings dialog for the attitude thrusters. This application (Status MFD draw) make it possible for you to design your own schematics with a customized configuration and the placement of attach points.
