FMGS to MSFS (Private MOD)

Post by Scorpi1987 »

Recently I made a private mod that makes FMGS run on the MSFS.

First of all I would like to emphasise that I do not intend to get Jean-Luc in any way into the queer or anything like that, but the mod I made for private purposes surprised me so much in its functionality that I made it available to the wider community.

To make it easier for you to understand what exactly I did, here is a small overview.

Virtual Cockpit removed from the Asobo A320 .

Modification of the FMGS FBW settings of the APFBWcoeff.ini in the [AileronFBW] section

basically that's all I did :-)

But I am a bit dissatisfied with the result, so I am currently working on a complete workaround of the FMGS model.

I am doing this so that the community can get a taste of what is possible with the MSFS,

I am aware that many things will not work at the moment
- Weather
- Some FSUIPC offsets are different than in FSX/P3D
- Light control
- ILS has some limitations or LOC is faulty at some airports

What works is :
-Display TCAS
-Display TERR
-Spoilers
-Flaps/Slats
-Gear
-Flight Controls
-AP

I hope I can continue to sweeten your time with the mod and we all hope for an official release :-)

In this sense have fun with the MOD and good flights

Thanks Sven for publishing that news! I will try that and will give feedback here.
And maybe you can work together with jeehell to create a offical and full working Jeehell Suite to fly with MSFS.

its Here, we arrvied V 1.0b there many changes in it

NEW MSFS FLIGHTMODELL REWORKED based on Asobo A320-NEO

Engine Data improved to NEO Values (FCOM DATA comes with 1.2 or 1.3)

Improved FBW Data - (because i dont have currently the API, i cannot make it better)

ILS - LOC Working with the new Navaids

Smother Landing



Due the old FBW PERF .. somtimes it comes to an dive on OPT.Climb, thats an issue that i have in P3Dv4 too when
i press OPT Climb the Elevater makes a "Jump" to Full Up or Down.



Be sure that the MSFS SDK ist INSTALLED !!!



Happy Flying

Thank you Sven for the tremendous effort and time you have injected in this project to provide this community of simmers with the possibility of connecting the superb FMGS to MSFS. I have tested it briefly (ground Only) to identify the operational modules. Could you please point out the ones still non functional to determine if we are doing the right thing.

Thank You.
Regards
Mike

Hello Mike.
Thank you very much for the praise :-)


The following modules are not working yet !
  • - Lights
    - Radios
    - Sometimes auto-trim after touchdown.
    -If the engines do not start, switch FBW to CFM and then back to MSFS-CFM.


Some Workaarounds
Small workaround or lights:
Use Fsuipc and set the light switches directly to MSFS via FSUIPC.
For the radios, use the MSFS drivers or software from your manufacturer.

In my case SIOC if desired I can provide my profile for the Openockpits A320 RMP

For Skalarki users, use 'Skalarki Profiler with MSFS and Jeehell
For GND Power use the FMGS Config and bind a Button to it .

Currently iam Waitin for the API , that i can make a Own Connector with the WASM Simconnet VARS.

Greets

Sven

JL will most likely need to program native compatibility with Active Sky FS if there is a new API. Interestingly some people say they have got it to work with other avionics suite, which I doubt -

Another one seems to read the wx.snapshot.txt only. Using the MSFS version of another one the weather radar is working even with P3D version of Active Sky running in background without connection to the sim. Of course in this case the display read from AS/P3D data did not match with the default MSFS weather.
See you in the skies…
