I was one going to ask, than I just had a second thought....

Hi Ben, From what I could understand about Cekko's issue, he would like to have Gizmo running without the control window or with the window popping in from a different screen position. Cheers Alberto

Great move, Ben. Thank you. Alberto

Amazing, I'll give it a try when I am done with my main project! Good job.

At post #539 the Gizmo.plugin folder is clearly there Can we see a screenshot of what actually is INSIDE that folder? EDIT: OK, the folder contains what is expected to be there....

I can confirm that. Within FreeTrackNoIR main window, select "Fake TrackIR" in the Game protocol combo. Then install Sandy Barbours' Pilot view and enable Track IR support. You will get a nice and smooth handling of all 6 degrees of freedom for you point of view.

>The only shortcoming seems to be that FaceTrackNoIR cannot do sideways movement. Typical example when landing K&A's T-28 on the Nimitz as mentioned in Chip&Simon's blog, you need to be able to move sideways so you can see along the side of the nose. I haven't found a way to get FaceTrackNoIR to do this. Even though it has a "Roll" axis this is far from easy to get any satisfactory results from, and I've left Roll axis disabled. I really have to check that again (I am not currently on my gaming pc) but as far as I can remember you get the most out of FTNoIR by simulating the Track IR protocol and coupling it with Sandy's Pilot view.

OK, registration is back! Ciao Alberto

I see your point, Ben. Also, Pete's approach looks nice to me so I will be just fine. Cheers

I see a lot of cases for this, but why not just making "inElapsedSinceLastCall" available to the script? Cheers x-a

Hi Ben, Gizmo would not load in Ubuntu 11.04 32 bit this is what I got from the log Loaded: /media/STORAGE/X-Plane 9/Resources/plugins/PluginAdmin/lin.xpl.

Thank you for the linux build! Going to check it later today.

Good. Those A/P flights can get really boring...

Thank you, Ben!

Four! :-) EDIT: ok, so we have the source code, we are mighty linux users... we should really go on and get the plugin built on our own effort... shouldn't we? too bad I failed already :-[ but I will not give up
