Lomac TEWS

Scrambler · 01-14-2007, 11:43 AM

Hi

I have TEWS module working - a bit of a resource hog on local (improved with build 11) but does not seem too bad when on Client / Server. The one thing that I am puzzled about is that the outer compass heading seems to be operating in reverse. [i.e. if heading due north it is showing correct but if you swing say East to 30 the TEWS outer compass swings to 330] Is this correct or is my understanding of what is to be displayed wrong.

Just going to check now

The compass heading doesnt actually work at all in some of the aircraft. This is due to lockon not exporting that data, and not a bug in TouchBuddy. Back in 10 mins after I have checked this

OK, you are correct (how did I miss this? bah!)... i`ll fix this now.

new v1.3.0.12 EXE ONLY build now available for this issue. The core and full builds are also being uploaded as we speak.

That was quick - tested and can confirm outer compass now working as expected.

Note was it your intention to have debug = 1 in the local cfg you included in the zip.

Thanks again for speedy service.

So, are we okay with the current quick fix with the "touchbuddy-local" file?

zorlac · 01-14-2007, 05:06 PM

nope, I should have included the normal touchbuddy.cfg file, which has the priority option it it...

zorlac · 01-14-2007, 05:17 PM

new touchbuddy-1.3.0.12-exe-only.zip file uploaded, with the correct config file in it

I cant wait until I fall asleep... its been a busy day... <sigh>

Thanks for the quick update. Take a break and get some sleep, we have more that enough to keep us busy for a while
