MFDE "v" YAME
-
ok I use MFDE with Helios, others use YAME, so without wishing to start a war - what are the advantages/disadvantages of one over the other? Also is anyone still developing MFDE?
-
MFDE is somehow actively developed as it’s open source and some people including myself are currently integrating display Extraction into Helios natively based on the MFDE source code. As both Projects match by the use of same framework and language .Net and C#
-
been a MFDE users. Am now a YAME user. but that’s only because I switched to CPD and only YAME delivers in that respect.
I have been equally happy with either.
YAME has great potential, I wish it’s development is resumed at some point. -
Good Day, Ironman,
I can’t compete with Oak or R_D as to the technical aspects. But , I went with MFDE simply because it was easier to install and seemingly less complicated. I can also report is is very simple to use, and is stable -

I can also report is is very simple to use, and is stableI agree and feel the same … but it would be nice if someone carried on developing the MFDE prog - extracting the in pit clock via MFDE would be nice ;0)

Use Yame64 for my Lilliput touchscreens as MFD’s and some engine guages. Fairly drag & Drop once you understand it…
-
MFDE is “select” - “Drag” - “resize” and “drop”
Its just the selection that needs developing IMHO, which is why I am hoping some clever bloke out there in BMS land is still developing it ;0)

Does MFDE automatically assign the OSBs to be touch on a touchscreen? Just curious, as with Yame64 they just work, no special assignments required.

MFDE is an extraction tool. For OSB buttons Helios is the way to use it. That’s why MFDE is currently beeing integrated in to Helios.
Can Yame build additional input panels? No so.any piece has it’s use depended on what a user expects to do

I personally use MFDE and pretty happy with it. I struggled for a week with Yame and gave up. WAY to many hoops to jump through. I don’t use a touch screen for anything and I have the TM MFD bezels but I would love to be able to extract more items like switches and, ECM and RWR buttons not so much to touch but to see status at a glance. Between the bezels, a custom keyboard and my Cougar HOTAS I pretty much have everything I need mapped but still have to look “down” into the pit to check a switch position now and then

I started helping out with YAME because I wanted more gauges then MFDE could offer and have them look way more realistic.
YAME is indeed on hold by Roccio (main developer), but as mentioned in the YAME thread itself, other options are being looked at as we speak, but I can’t elaborate on that for now… -
While I’m not using MFDE at the moment I’m running a decent mix of RTT client (for the MFDs) and YAME for various other gauges. Works like a charm!
All the best,
Uwe

Hi Oakdesign, i’m trying MFDE (v.0.6.3.0, is it the latest one?). It works like a sharm. I’ve noticed some “strange” behaviour on some gauges btw. All things noticed differs from 3d. For example, during ramp EHSI shows “NO DATA” with no power supply on. RWR shows the latest contact painting me on the center of the scope ( for example a Ship) and then shows an S. Nothing of this appear in 3d RWR. Always RWR shows some BIT info’s when i test cockpit lights. Then EHSI (again) shows current operation mode active on the middle of the screen for a second when selected (for example it shows TCN when i select Tacan mode).
Maybe you already know all these thing. Just curious to know if this is something that will be fixed. Also please give me direct link for downloading last version.
Regards
