Oh well I will just have to see what I can do with thisxwhen it comes out. The more I think about it the more I'm starting to think that this might Negate the reason why I wanted touchscreen in the first place.

Yeah that does answer pretty much all my questions thanks. What I want to do for my simpit is to choose a ship like the xr2 or the dg4 And emulate that ships panels as much as I can through remote mfd and mount them on touch screens (think star trek TNg console) I am eagerly waiting the release...

Will this work with multiple outputs on one comp? Say I had 1 of with Mint graphics for the main display and then another of for up to say 4 displays? I'm also guessing that u can make it display almost anything you want? So if you wanted to make a copy of the 2d Panel and put it on a big...

I have to keep an eye on this. A 2D panel on a touchscreen would be good enough to satisfy my simpit urges.

So just so I am up to play with this project. ( I have been out of the loop for a while) the aim is to have a seperate program running on another computer or laptop that will allow you to full screen remote MFD's? What are the chances of doing this with the full 2d panel? That I would be...

thats awesome!! good to see my homeland looking so good. what hardware/addons are you runnng? and at what altitude. my orbiter experience never looks as good as that

funny my orbiter crashes when i try load up the hyperdart. could be my poos computer

After looking at the link, a touchbuddy may solve my most immediate problems for now. the dual monitor setup sounds good. I will just have to play round

Thanks for the reply. Its good to know that almost anything is possible, but I will wait to find out how LockingToggle did his one. I should really admit that my knowledge is limited to hardware and electronics i dont really know the first thing about programming especially in orbiter. Are...

Kinda back on the original topic, this kind of thinking isn't new. the New Zealand Military discovered a long time ago that off-the-shelf windows based components are a lot more versatile and cost effective solution than dedicated military hardware. The fact that windows is everywhere means...

Yeah well its no secret that I want to build a sim pit of my own. For now i think it will be limited to a desktop board with physical representations of some of the 2d panel switches so that i dont have to keep clicking the damn buttons all the time. I notice on your center panel that you have...

Can you elaborate on what that does? I was thinking that this cockpit would be an awesome basis for a simpit. Also whens the real military version going to come out, one with lasers and bombs etc etc. :P

Bloody awesome, when you get time you will have to give me more info on those MFD's I was going to play around just trying to get one going and then do up a tutorial on it (or even if im good enough, building and shipping them). I would almost say that ripping a keyboard apart would be almost as...

Im against the militarization of the planet.... and I'm in the army. Its just one of those necessary evils, as much as I want world peace, I do not believe that humans should discard their martial skills. I am certain that we are not alone in the universe and it would be extremely naive to...
