Steam Gauge Overhaul

Thanks for your quick reply, Nick !
(and also for the new Lvars for home cockpit builders ;-) )

@Buzz Strange indeed. Mine stays blank whatever the configuration.
AIso, I can't find the precise file that needs editing to make appear the copilot inside cockpit. Any help appreciated.

Thanks.

I refuse to believe that the King Air will be ignored.. I'm betting the King Air will be a new aircraft from the ground up by Black Square.

Thanks BS. I never owned the tds, but had some wtt mods for the pms50. I removed them from the community folder to be certain.
I then uninstalled your exe and removed the pms50etc folder.
Restarted and installed the exe and the pms50 folder from a fresh download again.
The next flight was without problems. Will test with another FP further.

@GunStrauss you may be loading the aircraft after flying with another aircraft that left something switched on or off that is causing this behavior. Have you started in safe mode, loaded a simple MSFS single or twin, then restarted selecting first a simple MSFS single or twin, then switched over to the BlackSquare Baron?

OK - Thanks mate. So no FD bars in the Caravan.
Cheers

All I can say is that this sounds like nothing I've ever heard of in any of my aircraft, or in MSFS, for that matter. I suspect this is related to hardware or 3rd party bindings, but I know that's not much to go on. If you can't find your problem soon, Just Flight support is far more experienced than I am at diagnosing simulator-level problems, while I specialize in just my own aircraft. Good luck, and let me know what you discover so that anyone in the future with the same problem might be able to find the solution here.

Interesting. I loaded up the Caravan today, both the Default Green I use and the Default Red just in case there's panel shenanigans, and in both cases the knob worked. It's a lot slower than I remember it being (and as we all know here by now, my memory is infallible 😉); the heading knob seems to rotate 1:1 with the heading bug, whereas the HSI course knob rotates a lot faster than the CDI, so it's possible I just didn't notice it yesterday.

Simmarket updated their files yesterday at 16:57 UK time. If you purchased after then you will have the latest version.

Everything will be linked to the native WT avionics now. Just be aware that some liveries might have included their own panel.cfg files, which might have to be replaced or updated to reflect this change.

Thanks a lot, @hangar_101 , I have been able to build the Fuel Selector switches of the Analog Baron in my Loupedeck Live device, thanks to your instrtuctions. I didn't have idead about these values 19 and 20.

I use a trackball mouse for most interactions. Using hand tracking is not functional on most planes. The controller is used mostly for ATC (i place the interaction box on the floor beside me) and when ending the session.

Yes, I found that, thanks very much. Though in the ended I decided to just fly the NA Bonanza, save the turbocharger for the Duke.

Thanks.

Outa curiosity, what will become of my beloved King Air? In other posts I have seen mention of the Baron, the Bonanza and the Caravan regarding 2024.. But what about the King Air? Please tell me that no mention means something big is in store for this timeless aircraft in 2024.

For me it just stopped working.

No worries. The upgrade is otherwise brilliant and much appreciated!

All that note means is that the new default state when the transponder is powered on is "ON", instead of standby, as I believe it was before. This is how most transponders in the United States are programmed, after the FAA's guidance changed some number of years ago to recommend conducting ground operations with the transponder activated. I forget who recommended that change in the Baron specifically, but I recall making the change so that the startup state would be consistent across all my aircraft. As for why yours boots into altitude reporting mode, I'm not sure, because I just checked the code, and it's definitely set to "on". If you want to check this on your end, make your own changes, or revert to how the aircraft behaved previously, you can located the "apron.flt" flight configuration file for the Baron and edit the line that reads, "TransponderState=2". 0=Off, 1=STBY, 2=ON, 3=ALT. I hope that answers some of your questions.
