The Orb::Connect add-on plus add-ons by Kamaz and others made it eminently doable to drive LEDs and inputs from switches. The XR- vessels have an interface that allows for really detailed vessel control. Master/Slave should enable you to drive external views, although I never personally got...

Where was he when I was growing up? :thumbup:

Yes, Orb:Connect is stalled but not forgotten (and vMC never really worked with it). My wife passed away this time last year, and I haven't been dedicating much time to 'hobbies' since then. The O:C v2.0 is updated for Orbiter2010, albeit with an earlier API, and I will try to get back into the...

Looks like there's room for 1-3-1 or even 2-2-2 seating. Have to maximize that revenue. :thumbup: Looking awesome!

Indeed. I really liked that universe, and the Whitestars in particular.

Cool! Good Work!

Definitely needs some overhead windows with a dorsal docking port.

Agree. It would really take a common effort from the vessel developers. I've suggested using dbeachy's XRVesselCtrl as a baseline before, and others have suggested using the generic messaging framework, but nothing has come of that so far.

If you ignore performance, rotation, aspect ratio and scaling issues, :) probably not terribly realistic but pretty flexible. That's one problem with physical flight decks for Orbiter is the wide range of craft and panel layouts available to us - and where dynamic panels would really shine...

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. RL if pummeling me at the moment. I'll update the documentation to make sure that's called out. Sorry for the head scratcher, but thanks for trying O:C.

Real Life is in my way right now, but I'll try and take a look when I can. Is there anything in the orbiter log? Does the client get a response before the CTD? It only happens with the updated (for P10) DG-IV only? And KSC rwy 33? Very strainge.

What type of XR-series info are you wanting? I'll try to take a look at the Flight Deck section again; I'm sure I can find a couple new pearls of wisdom to add :) Would folks be interested in some how-tos/examples of specific hardware installations? I know bhawthorne promised us a nice...

You're quite welcome. I'm glad it's of use to others. Doesn't sound like it :facepalm: I'll check it when I get home.

Cool. How much latency do you see with the slave? Can the slave instance be run on a different machine?

It is definitely a feature we flight deck builders will use. I was not aware it was available, but now that I am, re-prioritization and saving for additional monitor will begin.

As flyer mentioned, that's STS specific, and doesn't mention where the lights are located. According to Wikipedia: , but the image shows it to the right. I like configurable. :cheers:

WRT having to tap on the actual button text. . . Yes, that is the problem I am having with selecting the buttons; I'll need to 'tap twice' I see that netdialog doesn't display the options normally shown in the dialog box (e.g. list of targets from Orbit MFD), just the title, presumably because...

Oops. Forgot that piece. :facepalm:

Just tried ORC and ran into a couple issues. First is that the VNC windows don't scale as expected. here's an image of ORC and normal VNC clients along with the second issue - the dialog client won't connect. Dragging frame larger doesn't help, and I've opened that port on my internal firewall...
