  2. XMidiCtrl - A MIDI Controller Plugin for X-Plane

    By VirtualCPT

    About this plugin
    You have a MIDI Controller at home with lots of buttons and knobs? Why not use it with your favourite aircraft to control the autopilot and many other functions! XMidiCtrl is a plugin for X-Plane 11, which allows you to connect MIDI controllers to X-Plane commands and datarefs without the need of additional software.
    The plugin was developed for X-Plane 11.50+ / 12 and supports Microsoft Windows, Linux and macOS (universal build).
    The following devices are officially supported:
    Behringer X Touch Mini The following devices are known to work:
    Behringer BCR2000 Behringer X-Touch Compact Loupedeck Live XMidiCtrl is open source: GitHub page
     
    Features
    Create different profiles for your aircrafts Bind knobs and buttons of your controller to X-Plane Commands and DataRefs Simulate push and pull functions for buttons (normal button press = push, long botton press = pull) Send MIDI messages to the MIDI device to illuminate buttons when certain modes are active (e.g. autopilot, heading mode, ...) Developed in C++ with no performance impact in your simulator  
    Donate
    If you like XMidiCtrl and want to support its further development then you can donate.
     
    Documentation
    Detailed documentation of the plugin and all mapping options can be found here.
     
    Support
    If you need support or want to chat about the plugin then please visit the official support forum.
     
    Installation
    Extract the ZIP file and move its entire XMidiCtrl folder into your ..\X-Plane\Resources\plugins directory.
     
    Examples
    I have included the following examples as well as overlays to print out in the examples folder:
    ToLiss A321 Hot Start TBM 900 Hot Start Challenger 650 IXEG 737-300 ZIBO 737-800 iniBuilds A310 Felis Boeing 747-200  
    Templates
    I included a template for the Behringer X-Touch Mini in the templates folder of the installation package. This template includes an example mapping and further information about the supported mapping options. I have also included my hardware configuration of the Behringer X-Touch Mini in the same folder. You can apply those settings using the X-Touch Editor from Behringer.
    To use the template file, simply copy it into your aircraft folder and start adding commands and/or datarefs for your buttons and encoders.
     
    Usage
    When a new aircraft is loaded, the plugin will search in the aircraft directory for a file called XMidiCtrl.toml. The profile uses the TOML language and holds information about the MIDI devices to be used and the mappings of the encoders and buttons. Further information about the TOML syntax can be found here. The configuration of XMidiCtrl might be a bit intimidating at the beginning, but it is quite straight forward. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you run into problems.

    Installation:
    - Unzip the files in [X-Plane]\Resources\plugins\FlyWithLua\Scripts
    Settings: (edit the lua script)
    -- Here you set if the failures should be default enabled or disabled when your starting up X-Plane.
    -- You can also enable and disable this option (for the current session) in the FlyWithLua menu.
    -- Set true to enable failures, false to disable. Default is true. true and false have to be written with lowercase letters.
    EnableFailures_WizVar = true
    -- Mean time between failures (MTBF) is the predicted elapsed time between inherent failures of a system during operation.
    -- Default is MTBF_hours = 10.0
    local MTBF_hours = 10.0
    -- Max failures pr session
    -- Default is Max_Failures = 2
    local Max_Failures = 2

    -- Severity 1 to 5. 1 least severe, 5 most severe. i.e. if you select 3, you will get failures from severity 1 to 3.
    local Severity = 5
    -- Clear all failures when starting x-plane. Default is false. true and false have to be written with lowercase letters.
    local ClearAllFailures = false
    Logfile:
    When a failure occurs it will log the event to the logfile Wizball_CL650_Failures.log in your X-Plane root folder.

  8. AutoFoV

    By daemotron

    About AutoFoV
    AutoFoV is a plugin for the X-Plane flight simulator, automatically setting the field of view based on the currently loaded aircraft. AutoFoV is open source; you can find its source code and more detailed instructions at its public GitHub repository.
    Installing AutoFoV
    AutoFoV comes in X-Plane's fat plugin format. Simply extract the directory AutoFoV from the zip file and place it as a sub-folder into the Resources/plugins folder of your X-Plane installation.
    Using AutoFoV
    AutoFoV allows to define a custom field of view for each aircraft model (i.e. for each .acf file in your X-Plane's aircraft folder and its subfolders). To define a custom field of view, simply create an empty file in the same folder and with the same name as the .acf file, but suffixed with .fov instead of .acf, and populate it with the numeric FoV value you want to use with this aircraft (only digits 0-9 and the decimal dot are allowed).

  11. CrewPackXP - Crew Callouts

    By N1K

    **Updated 01/04/2022** CrewPackXP is a FlyWithLUA utility designed to add some crew communications for aircraft in X-Plane 11. This includes basic callouts, and in some cases assistance from the PNF in high workload phases of flight. Settings can be adjusted to enable or disable the whole plugin, or just certain features of each aircraft. Flight Factor 757 / 767: - Virtual FO to pre-flight aircraft - Take-off and Landing calls by both crew members - Flight Attendant PA's - Ground Crew positioning of equipment - Virtual FO assistance with go-around procedure Hot Start Challenger 650: - Virtual FO to pre-flight aircraft - Take-off and Landing calls by both crew members Source Code https://github.com/N1K340/CrewPackXP/tree/main/src Documentation http://crewpackxp.readthedocs.io/ Changelog New features and bug fixes are listed in the change log. Installation Copy the Scripts and Modules folders into the main folder of FlyWithLUA: > X-Plane 11 > Resources > plugins > FlyWithLua Once enabled, the First Officer should announce his entry to the cockpit roughly 15 seconds after loading in. CrewPackXP settings can be accessed via the X-Plane menu bar: > Plugins > FlyWithLua > FlyWithLua Macros > Crew Pack Settings Prerequisite This plugin uses the FlyWithLUA plugin to interface with X-Plane. It is available freely from [X-Plane.org](https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/38445-flywithlua-ng-next-generation-edition-for-x-plane-11-win-lin-mac/) Luna INI Parser (LIP) is included as an additional plugin module for use with FlyWithLua. This module allows for the saving and reading of settings data within LUA. It has been included in this package under the MIT Licence offered by creator Carreras Nicholas. This is a common plugin; it may already exist in your modules folder causing a prompt to overwrite. Usage The CrewPackXP functions run autonomously based on in sim events, provided the aircraft is enabled within the CrewPackXP settings. Refer to each aircraft's entry in the manual for details on settings and features available. Disclaimer / Feedback This package is to be distributed as Freeware only under the GPL v3 license. This is the first time I have coded a plugin, any feedback is welcome. Bug reports, please include the x-plane log.txt file in the main x-plane folder for the flight in question.

  13. LES Saab 340A Yoke Power and Speed Charts

    By N1K

    This package will replace the default instrument approach charts on the yoke with a selection of power and speed charts.
    The data is derived from the charts.pdf provided with the aircraft, speeds are based on Sea Level and 0 degrees celcius.
    Being a turbo-prop, the difference in most speeds are only a few knotts and makes a compromise for the limited chart space.
    To select the chart to be displayed, click on the 'charts' icon towards the bottom of the gizmo toolbar (the one that looks like line graphs).
    Includes:
    * Climb Power and ECS OFF Takeoff Power
    * Cruise Power and ECS ON Takeoff Power
    * Selection of Metric or Imperial weight Speed Charts

  15. Make it easy to follow takeoff and landing speeds

    By aeysim

    ATTENTION: Only for LES Saab 340!
    It makes it easy for you to follow takeoff and landing speeds.
    Takeoff speed (approximately) :  105 knts (green)
    Landing speed (approximately) : 115 knts (red)
    1. Download and extract file
    2. Insert folder "Cockpit.png" and "Cockpit_LIT.png" in Aircraft/X-Aviation/Saab 340A/.............. Variant/liveries/.........../objects
    Apply this process to all variants and liveries.
    4. Enjoy!
     
    P.S: An explanation came from LES: CTOT is not based on 64% torque, it is based on 64˚ Power Lever position.
    So I re-edited the file and unchecked the Torque indicator showing 64%. I arranged the picture again according to what is written here. However, they need to fix the error in the Flight Tutorial.pdf file (p.11) found in the aircraft manuals.
    I reuploaded the corrected image file. Sorry.

    This download is fully independant from FlyJSim art assets. Therefore, as we couldn't touch to the actual fuselage, we mimic the hole in the fuselage with a mask.
    This should work well with my Combi repaint where I painted the door on the fuselage.

  20. Forbid external view (Lua)

    By XPJavelin

    X-Plane external view is forbidden.
    When you try to switch to an external view while it's not plausible to be outside at that moment, you will be bring back immediately to the virtual 3D cockpit to focus on flying. There is no user interaction with the script, it is running silently in the background at all times.

    Installation
    FlyWithLua required.
    Install the script into .../X-Plane 11/Resources/plugins/FlyWithLua/Scripts/

  21. Freighter conversion (P2F or PCF) for the ToLiss 321

    By XPJavelin

    In this package for the ToLiss Airbus, we mimic a main cargo door for the A321P2F / A321PCF, a rigid cargo barrier and some window plugs using a single 3D object that needs to be attached to the model.
    Our custom object is placed under the Etalab Open Licence.
    This object is not part of the ToLiss product. This modification is not approved by the original author at ToLiss and attaching the P2F package to the ToLiss model is done at your own risk. The object does not contain any ToLiss part in order to comply with copyright regulations.

  22. Simple Ground Equipment & Services - (low tech ground services & pushback)

    By XPJavelin

    Simple Ground Equipment & Services displays or hides static objects around your aircraft on the ground.
    Tested in X-Plane 12.04 and in X-Plane 11.55
    A variety of ramp equipment (passengers bus, GPU, Air start unit, cones, belt loader, ULD loaders, airstairs, PRM truck, deicing, catering, cleaning van...) Some moving vehicles: the follow-me car, emergency services (EMS), the fuel truck, the bagage carts and the passengers bus Active chocks that actually retain your aircraft and prevent it to move in a slope Animated and moving passengers (thanks to the MrX assets). New in June 2022. A simplified marshaller to better aim at your parking stand A simple pushback system, compatible with the X-Plane 12 aircraft carrier. Automatic pushback to designated position (X-Plane 12 only). New in November 2022 Aircraft arresting systems  (an arrestor cable, a net barrier or absorbing materials) Active deicing  that actually protects the airframe from X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12 ice for a period of time  (available only in low temperatures) Adaptative ground kit  with slight variants for freighter, passengers aircraft, regional airplanes, business jets or general aviation, not always the same vehicles are coming. Armed forces variant of the set, with green painted vehicles. Any aircraft is serviceable.  Moreover a customization of the ground handling is already embedded for a lot of freeware and payware aircraft models. Trigger a distant car accident site, shipwreck, or a burning fire and for instance fly the emergency response in your helicopter. Place the aircraft carrier and the frigate on pinpoint coordinates Renovated in March 2023 You may change our provided set of vehicles (based on MisterX and XPJavelin's creations) by any custom ground vehicle you already have in your X-Plane directories. You may also use the X-Plane default ground fleet instead. Integration with XPJavelin's Speedy Copilot series which displays the vehicles according to the phase of flight (Speedy Copilot plugin required). And :
    Easy installation , drag the files in the FlyWithLua scripts folder, open the keyboard menu in X-Plane and attribute a key to toggle our menu. Generate the airport cache (in Plugin → FlyWithLua menu). You can further customize stuff in some configuration files but you don't have to. Not intrusive : keep full control  over the vehicles display, everything is commanded from our popup window. Plus we don't interact with your weight & balance. Freedom : you can use all our ground services if you wish or only install the script for one among them. A complete and detailed manual  More information is expanded in several PDF manuals inside the download. Multi-platform, since we use FlyWithLua, it works on GNU/Linux. For X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12. The same script works in both simulators. All default airplanes and ground vehicles within X-Plane 12 are supported. New in September 2022.

  24. SmartFlying, an extension to make formation flight using ​SmartCopilot​.

    By CaptainSpaulding

    SmartFlying
    an extension to make formation flight using SmartCopilot.

    SmartFlying is a Lua script for FlyWithLua that allows formation flight on X-Plane over the internet, without the need of a dedicated server (like IVAO, VATSIM, ect.).
    It uses SmartCopilot to establish a connection between two remote users and share the data while it handles X-Plane's AI-Aircraft to show the position of the remotely connected aircraft.

    Currenty it has been tested on Linux (primary development platform) and Windows, but it should work without problem on MacOsX.
    SmartFlying uses AMS, an advanced package library for Lua included in the distribution archive, and it has been developed around FlyWithLua because unfortunately Gizmo is not currently available for Linux.
     
    Current version: 0.84a (21 Jan 2021)

    DOWNLOAD the lastest version of SmartFlying here: SmartFlying-LatestRelease.zip

    DOWNLOAD SmartCopilot from the home page: https://sky4crew.com/smartcopilot/

    DOWNLOAD FlyWithLuaNG here: FlyWithLua NG Download page

    Please read "SmartFlying-Readme.pdf" for installation instructions.

  25. OBJ8 to Wavefront OBJ converter

    By CaptainSpaulding

    OBJ8 to Wavefront OBJ Converter
    for Linux, Windows and MacOsX

    OBJ8_convert allows you to convert 3D meshes from X-Plane's proprietary format to a standard Wavefront OBJ.
    This tool converts only the meshes, discarding all the other informations such as: materials, animations, dataref.
     
    HOW IT WORKS
    OBJ8_convert is a command line tool. The syntax is quite simple:
    obj8_convert <xplanesfile.obj> [<output.obj>] Once converted, the file can be opened in Blender or in any other software that is able to handle a standard Wavefront OBJ file.




    EXAMPLE
    Just for the sake of test, let's convert one of the standard objects in the library of X-Plane, the small fuel truck:


    The file can be found here:
    Resources/default scenery/airport scenery/Common_Elements/Vehicles/Small_Fuel_Truck.obj  
    Once converted with:
    OBJ8_convert 'Resources/default scenery/airport scenery/Common_Elements/Vehicles/Small_Fuel_Truck.obj' test.obj  
    ...can be opened in Blender:

    All the measures in the OBJ8 file are in meters, thus the resulting Wavefront OBJ file uses the meter as a unit base.
    Infact, is clearly visible from the snapshot, the truck is 6 meters long, meaning 6 squale, thus it is compatible with the real life truck which is 6.12 meter long.
     
    APPLICATIONS
    OBJ8_convert can be used to add extra elements to an airplane. For instance, if one wants to add the pilots (or some passenger) to a plane that is missing them, he can convert the cockpit file and use it as template to place the pilots in the proper position, making sure that the hands are in the right places.
    The sames applies to additional parts, such as winglets on the tip of the wings. OBJ8_convert can be used to get a reference to make the winglets perfectly fit the wings.
    Or you may want to model a ladder or a stairway to your plane's door.
    OBJ8_convert can be very useful also to make the files need by librain.
     
    DEVELOPMENT

    This tool is under active development and its functionalities may change in the future.
    The primary development platform is Linux.

    Special thanks to @xraydelta1 for compiling the Mac version.
