  1. Only SASL is advanced enough to do doors. Sorry.
  2. Do the datarefs work in DataRefEditor ?
  3. If that doesn't work you can replace OnBoot with OnFirstFrame... or you can use: plugins.findPlugin( "signature" )
  4. As a guess you're creating your datarefs before the CRJ plugin has loaded. Try this: function OnBoot() dr_crj_v1 = dref.getDataref( "CRJ/spd/v1_value" )end function OnUpdate() -- or main() if( dr_crj_v1)then value = dref.getFloat( dr_crj_v1 )end end
  5. It'd also be a MASSIVE waste of time to learn. And limiting, in the same way that PlaneMakers mesh tools always were. The much smarter move for all parties is to delegate the task to mature tools, like we already do. Want a company car for your Florist? Lease a bloody Camry. Don't try and engineer one.
  6. Log files or it never happened.
  7. The timer was sent to Philip as an example. A serving suggestion, if you will. Gizmo licensing has to-the-second resolution, which leaves the possibility of trials/rentals/bonuses, all sorts of things. It's at the discretion of the content author and publisher as to how they setup their timing. A reasonably small time delay also means that we can automatically display the registration wizard in a timely manner when starting, restarting or reconfiguring your airplanes... The CRJ plugin need only query if the license is good and Gizmo handles the rest. This makes it very simple for authors to integrate and compile the DRM code in their plugin. (It did take a while to -get- here, but it's the best content protection solution we've had yet by a very wide margin, for all parties.) An initial release defaulting to more (yet, reasonable) log data is always the best bet when deploying a new system to a wide range of unknown computers. Thankfully we haven't needed the data yet, but if we had, we knew it was going to be there. Trivia: Did you know that the entire system bus for something like an Xbox 360 is encrypted? All the data, on all the wires, all the time. (well, from very shortly after boot...) 5 seconds is fairly low, it's just that you get to see it.
  8. Appreciate the concern about Log pollution. We'll tidy it up, but it's not something I think you need to worry about while you fly. Here's why: 60 * 60 = 3600 / 5 = 720 reports an hour. Log packet is approx 244 bytes. 244 * 720 = 175,680 bytes per hour 175,680* 24 = 4,216,320 bytes per day So your exposure is about 4 megs per day of continuous sim use.
  9. XPLMRegisterFlightLoopCallback You're going to need to spend some time reading through the X-Plane SDK and testing the examples provided.
  10. set the value every frame? X-Plane has its own personality. Enjoy.

  12. Lasers with sharks.
  13. The X-Aviation CRJ is not supported in 64 bit X-Plane yet. This should be resolved very shortly, we're going through final prep work to get this update out to you ASAP. Thanks for your patience.
  14. You can have a 32 bit Gizmo.plugin and the new Gizmo64.plugin folders installed side by side. We did this to allow better compatibility with older products. Restore or install an older copy of the Gizmo.plugin folder that doesn't have any of the 64 bit beta data in it. If you don't have an older copy easily available you can try deleting the folder Gizmo.plugin/64/ Hope that helps!
  15. Please remove the Gizmo.plugin folder from the Gizmo64 beta test program and try again. If that's not the error please post your Log.txt and GizmoLog.txt files for debug.
  16. It would be, but we found some last minute technical glitches that I've been fixing while Cameron sleeps. I'm sure he'll be happy to make loud and clear notices that the product is out, including instructions on how to get the update, when it's all ready to go. For now, please forgive us for the minor content glitches while we upgrade the site to make the experience better for everyone.
  17. You can't download something that is not available yet.
  18. The 64bit version isn't available, yet.
  19. (Posting from my phone, plz forgive typos)
  20. Other member of the X-Plane community have access to the complete Gizmo source on guthub.. Worst case loss is a few hours of my work. The recent rework centered around CMake means that building Gizmo on a new computer is a relatively straight forward procedure. We do what we can with what we've got.
  21. Better to remain silent and keep you all wondering I suppose. No data has been lost, just a minor irritation in the scheme of things.
  22. @sqrt; apologies for the confusion.
  23. Actually the fault lies with nvidia. Again. As far as superior experience is concerned; when you buy a clone you get screwed: http://m.techspot.com/news/43614-customers-get-shafted-in-nvidia-class-action-suit.html When you buy an Apple they do a logic board swap. I will be left with exactly the same quality of machine that I payed for. Not some cheap shit bottom of the barrel craptop. Do try and bring some fact to the table if you're going to post in one of my threads.
