A couple of wishes on this if possible.

  1. Possible to add colour by % on a simple gauge? The arc allows for more of a range to be shown on a single button but would still like the ability to display green and red zones for example.
  2. Possible to change the background on a generic toggle button? It has a speckled look which I'm not keen on but we cannot set a new background to these e.g. pure black. The gauges for example are pure black so I would prefer these to be consistent.

Thanks as always.

  • I want to do that, but haven't figured how yet (arc is a bit more complicated than straight line). It will come once I figure out a solution 😊.
  • Yes, that's what the Custom ON/OFF Images at the bottom are for.

Is it possible to add Fuel Tank Selector indication? I see someone asked this on the Github Q&A but no answers. Would be great to have FUEL TANK SELECTOR index working so we can see the current selected tank.

Thanks as always for your work on this.

image

nguyenquyhy 8 day(s) ago

I think the request on GitHub is for the event to switch fuel tank. You can already show selected fuel tank with `FUEL TANK SELECTOR:index`.

Thanks. I had already tried that but will explore again today.

Great plugin! Everything is working fine, except...

I am having trouble getting the AP ALT, increase/decrease and VS increase/decrease to work properly in the Carenado Mooney and I don't know if it's because the Mooney has an "arm" button for changing ALT or because of something I am doing wrong or just a bug in the Mooney.

I can supply more specifics if needed. Any help would be great. Thanks!

One of the best additions to MSFS so far - i use it every flight

sadly the AP functions are broken for a while now (at least for the A32NX). You can select Heading / Altitude etc but you can't engage it anymore 😞

I'm looking for the Win10 path for the profiles folder. I would like to copy my profile to another computer. Sorry if this has been asked before. Thanks.

image

nguyenquyhy 3 month(s) ago

Profiles are in `%appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\ProfilesV2`, but I don't think you can just copy and paste to another PC. I would suggest trying export/import feature from the Stream Deck software instead.

Is it possible to display the percentage of Propeller RPM and Mixture?

I am lost and I do not know if I am doing something wrong or maybe it is not possible.

I would be very grateful for your reply

image

nguyenquyhy 3 month(s) ago

For engine RPM, you can use `GENERAL ENG PCT MAX RPM:index`. For prop RPM, there seems to be `PROP MAX RPM PERCENT:index` but I have not added that into the plugin yet. I will test that out and add to the next release should it work.

Great plugin 😊 but is there any way we can set simulation data variables in addition to sending simulation events ? You allow us to read and display simulation data but don't seem to be able to set simulation data, only send events

image

nguyenquyhy 4 month(s) ago

Yes there is no generic way to set simulation data at the moment. Some preset buttons already do so, but it is a bit tricky to make it generic

Any reason why the display sometimes gets corrupt and you have icons superimposed on each other and strange graphics in the display ?

Ending Stream Deck from taskmanager and restarting seems to fix it until it happens again.
image

nguyenquyhy 4 month(s) ago

I am still trying to figure that one out. Does it happen to latest 0.34 version?
image

MSFLYER5856 4 month(s) ago

I'll be running some tests tonight or tomorrow. I thought maybe my SD was broken but I see the display errors also on the computer monitor and my SD mini also.
image

nguyenquyhy 4 month(s) ago

Yes it is the plugin issue. It happens so randomly so I cannot catch it to find the root cause. If you happen to find a consistent way to reproduce it, please let me know. I would appreciate that very much.
image

MSFLYER5856 4 month(s) ago

I couldn't catch it tonight. Had a perfect 1 hr flight with no issues. Using V34

Update: Another perfect 1 hr flight. Looking real good.

OK: 3 in a row, looks like it may be fixed

Thanks for that great tool!!
But how can I update it in the Stream Deck Software? My Version ist 0.29 and there is no update button? Only deinstallation and install profile (what I have already done).

Udated now manually and it works 😊
image

nguyenquyhy 5 month(s) ago

Yes it will auto update once I submit the new version to Elgato. And I do that only once in a while, when I see that a particular version is very stable because it will force everyone to update. I hope 0.34 will be the next one.

Using the latest build of FT for Streamdeck on Windows 10 20H2, i get a message ''this custom action can't be installed on this operating system'' , any idear's?
image

nguyenquyhy 5 month(s) ago

Strange. I am on the same Windows version. Also the only restriction is that you have to be on Windows 10. I would guess that there is some registry error and Stream Deck think that you are not on Windows 10.

Hi, thanks for your continued updates. I installed this manually long ago, what's the best way to see which version I have installed? If I update, will I have to remake my profiles? Thanks.
image

nguyenquyhy 6 month(s) ago

Basically I try my best to make sure all new update is compatible with existing profiles, so you should not need to redo them. One way to know which version you are using is to click on More Action button in Stream Deck software and find Flight Tracker inside there.

Thanks for this Addon!!!
I just installed the profile into STream deck (downloading within Streamdeck), but now I can not change anything in this profile. Why is this?
image

nguyenquyhy 6 month(s) ago

Hmm which profile are you talking about?
image

joeljodel 6 month(s) ago

Hello to all,

Great work but I have the same problem than Abzero.
I installed Flight Tracker and KobiFlightConnector 8.0.2.6 and everything worked well. Problem appeared when I restart my computer, it is not possible to modify or display keys related to flightTracker neither related to Mobiflight in stream deck software.
As soon as I click on these keys nothing happened and Stream deck crash!
If I click on keys related to stream deck function it is OK.
I try to reinstall all the applications but I have the same issue.
Remark when I reinstalled streamdeck software ''flight tracker'' already installed and not possible to unstall it at each time.
Please help as I was so happy when it works it is so wonderfull.

nguyenquyhy 6 month(s) ago

Could you please file an issue in our GitHub https://github.com/nguyenquyhy/Flight-Tracker-StreamDeck/issues with some screenshots and logs (%appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins\tech.flighttracker.streamdeck.sdPlugin with names like flightstreamdeck20210403.log)? Looks like the plugin crashes for some reasons.

What was the status of having two or 3 values displayed on the one button or two different actions on the same button. I was wanting to have all the warning lights on one button. Stall , Overspeed, Caution.

nguyenquyhy 6 month(s) ago

I don't think anyone works on that yet 😀.

Thanks again for this app.
When will you give it a connection with your Flight Recorder ?
image

nguyenquyhy 6 month(s) ago

Haha thanks for using both tools. I do have a plan to add that but I don't know exactly how the feature would look like yet https://github.com/nguyenquyhy/Flight-Recorder/issues/19.
image

popele3 6 month(s) ago

Don't make knots with your neurons !
We only need six functions: Start/Stop recording and the four replay ones. Others are not in-flight functions and can be used by clicking the buttons. (Could be improved later).
Keep it simple, basic and efficient like Flight Recorder is.
No need for a powerplant making all including coffee ! I bought the Italian app two days before you release Flight Recorder, and I didn't use it after, cause I don't even understand how it works (and don't want to try).

First of all a very big thank you.
How can I assign lights? (Beacon/Strobe/etc.)?
Is it possible to upload a profile? That we can import it ?

Thx
Tom

On the top of the description above you can find a link to a discussion thread with some profiles. I remember some other profiles are also unloaded here in flightsim.to. Or you can go to our thread in MSFS forum for some others https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/stream-deck-button-box-my-c172-implementation/229137.

It is a bit all over the places at the moment, so I am thinking of building a small page to collect all those profiles from our contributors for easier access.

Hi - Sorry it's me again! I have been spending a lot of time recently setting up a default aircraft profile (the Beechcraft Baron G58) with Flight Tacker so that I can then replicate it of all the simpler aircraft by deleting buttons as appropriate (I was intending to pop these on the site for others, but I just can't get it finished!

Overall it has been going quite well, and most of it is now done. I do have a few odd Simconnect issues that have me stumped - which I may ask about some time - but my biggest problem by far is with the G1000 Audio Panel. I had no issues setting up the PFD and MFD (including the the soft key menus, knobs and joysticks), being able to use all of the Mobiflight commands to get pretty much everything fully operational. The Audio Panel however is a different story. Not one of the buttons will work. There are no Mobiflight threads about any issues (and all of the toggle values are in the Mobiflight file in my Community folder - because I checked. Also, when I checked MSFS 2020 for the operations of the keys in question (in developer mode), all of the variables seemed correct too.

I can't really see why it would be a Flight Tracker issue, but I can't think what else the problem could be. Have you heard from anyone else with any issues? Do you have any ideas?

Thanks

Peter

nguyenquyhy 7 month(s) ago

Are those Audio events inside our https://github.com/nguyenquyhy/Flight-Tracker-StreamDeck/blob/master/FlightStreamDeck.Core/TOGGLE_EVENT.cs? Would you mind filing an issue in GitHub listing the events that are not working so I can try them out?
image

pjglewis 7 month(s) ago

No problem. I will do that tomorrow.

Thanks

Peter
