Made a few improvements to front console not least restoring FLIR to ICP as this is now fully functional in 4.33.
FLIR rocker and weather button WX now work as intended.
New .hpf file and keyboard layout pdf uploaded.
Anybody using Ice’s profile and wishing to add my improvements, its easy to copy paste the relevant parts.
You may have to alter some keystrokes but I am willing to assist.weepop

Yet another addition courtesy of Rogues profile.
I have added the ejection handle and uploaded new .hpf file.
Also uploaded new Weepop-Ice.7z with latest images.It does require addition to the image file but it is worth re downloading this as I have done a lot of
tidying up and so it is a little smaller.I repeat

Hello Weepops,
Thanks for sharing your work with us here. I finally got Helios to work with my BMS set up.
I started testing Ice’s profile but after much tweaking I decided to go with Rogues’ profile mainly because I didn’t know the ins and outs of Ice’s, discovering later that it is as good!I wanna know if you have encountered the following obstacles while working with Helios. In BMS fullscreen mode, the Helios touchscreen monitor looses its position rendering the cockpit touchscreen profile useless. The visible buttons are active but the window looks as if the profile moved off the screen to the left of the monitor hiding half of cockpit instruments, while the other half of the screen shows the part of the other Windows desktop screen while BMS is being displayed in full screen mode on the main monitor.
I hope I explained correctly This is the part were a picture will speak a thousand words. I will post one as soon as I get to my computer.

I have improved the CMDS panel by adding correct HMCS symbology and by making the PRGM and MODE knobs larger
so they are easier to operate,Uploaded new .hpf file

TrackIR 4Now, i dont have an issue with FPS. The system consistently operates at around 30 FPS, which is great for an integrated card!

I’m not familiar with Intel I use AMD but have you got your two monitors set up as an extended desktop?
-
Yes they are, i don’t believe is hardware or windows related since it works fine in windowed mode. I just don’t want to have to run it in windowed mode if I want to use my touch screen.
BTW, how do you get your signature to appear automatically that that on your posts? I want to do the same with my specs. -
Pika
try using my bms.cfg file attached ,I think!Change from .txt to .cfg
To add your sig go to your profile/about me tab and write it .

Hi Weepop,
Thanks for the file. No dice thought
this is what my screens look like in full screen vs. windowed.

The second screen looks correct, if you start BMS it should then fill the screen.
Mine looks the same except the BMS part is in the top left corner when displaying that screen and then fills out as I start.What are you doing different to achieve the two different looks?
OK forget that question ,I see running windowed or full screenweepop

Hi. How do I get the left and right consoles to display?

Hi. How do I get the left and right consoles to display?
John, on the upper right and left corner there are two hidden buttons that when touched, the consoles appear.
Please let me know if your’e having the same problem I am having when opening the consoles which is that it appears that the pressing action seems to make a “double click” effect making the console appear and disappear momentaneously.

Thanks Pikachu. You mentioned “when touched”. Is that for touch screen? I have the profile working on my regular monitor…. does it also work that way?. If Yes is it just by rolling the mouse cursor over the area? Or can the spots be clicked with mouse?
-
You can click them with the mouse, but yes, this was designed for touchscreen use.

Hi, I have 2 questions, i just tried your profile but my problems are :
- the CMDS panel is not present
- I placed your key file in config files, but nothing happens when I use my touchscreen (no link with BMS), did i miss something ?
Thanks for your help !

Hi waichou and thank you for your interest in my profile,
I don’t know what can be causing the problem with the CMDS panel, as I have just checked the current download and it works correctly for me.
As regards the no output from your touch screen , have you directed helios to the appropriate falcon key file entry?
Open profile in editor, reduce left side panel to just show monitors and interfaces.
Expand interfaces and you should see keyboard profile and falcon.
enter falcon and direct it to the weepopBMS4.key file in the falcon config folder.
You should now be good to go.

I found problem with CMDS not showing and have uploaded new Weepop-Ice.7z and new Weepop-Ice.hpf files to mediafire.
There are a few changes since last upload such as adding checklists for F16 avionics and a Sth Korea map to airport charts.
It is a work in progress with charts so a new upload will be coming in future.
