Falcon MFD Software for android tablets
-
I have a version of the Windows Server part which doesn’t require the registry hack anymore. It just let’s you select 4.34 natively. As I had to change the position of reading the DED/RWR out of the SharedMemoryTexture as well and havn’t had the time to analyze it as well I won’t make this version public at the moment.
If anyone is interseted PM me. I’ll provide a version that just needs to be unzipped so can even be tested alongside an installed version with registry hack

any known issues with Android “O” ?
-
Don’t know on O or 8 but the older the better. I have the android part running on 4.0.4 “Ice Cream Sandwich”

Hi !
thanks for your software. I don’t achieve to make server reads data from BMS 4.34. I unchecked and checked box in cockpit extraction menu.
I there something else to do ?
The link with tablet works : when I use a button it says on server that the key is not recognized.
And when I launch MFD server I have an error : Index is outside limits
Thanks !

Hi
I finally achieved to make it work (almost)
the only problem I still have is that I lost very often the AG or TGP MDF, while flight data, map, and other MFD still work. I tried with different refresh time and it’s same.
I don’t see anything in log even on tablet or computer.
Is there a way to solve that ?
thanks

Hello Komurcu,
Thank you for making such a fantastic app for free! It has made flying so much easier, especially when typing in coordinates on the ICP.
I did have to go through a bit of troubleshooting on my own. Perhaps it would be nice to add a troubleshooting section to the installation PDF which includes 1. Checking firewall permission for the server 2. changing all the 0x to 0X in the keyfile in case of ‘key not recognised’ error.I appreciate your time and effort and am looking forward to future development of the application.

most everything works for me except SimSymWheelUp, SimSymWheelDn, SimRetUp, SimRetDn, all wheels for that matter but then again I don’t use them much at all after I set them, also the EWS stuff doesn’t work either but I control them from my other devices. The ICP and RWR work which was my intention of using this so I’m satisfied.
one more thing, any way to get this to stretch or run full screen on a 10.5" Tab?
-
Is there a way to get the left mfd on one tablte and the right mfd on the other tablet, instead of having both on one tablet? I was thinking of somehow attaching the thrustmaster mfds to each tablet. Is that possible?
-
Two issues. First, the app on my computer seems to keep going to 4.33 U1, even though I then click key file, and I go to my keyfile in 4.33U4.
Second issue, is that on my tablet, even after putting in the correct ip address, I get the following error "java.io.FILENOTFoundException/storage/emulated/0/FalconMFD.log(Permission denied)
-
The windows server doesn’t have the 4.34 as selectable version that’s why you would have an 4.33 U1 entry in your registry pointing to your 4.34 install
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Benchmark Sims\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1] "baseDir"="E:\\Spiele\\Falcon BMS 4.34\\Bin\\x64"
or you could try my recompiled portable version (unzip and lauch the FalconMFDServer.exe) which has 4.34 as selectable version

I just downloaded the latest version. I’ve been using this program for a long time, but I had the old version which you had to point to the keyfile in 4.33. Anyway I wanted to uninstall 4.33 so I downloaded the latest version. It all works fine EXCEPT the MFDs on the tablet are displaying as follows:
1. LMFD - showing bottom right hand corner of HUD
2. RMFD - showing bottom left hand corner of HUD.Is there a way to correct this so the MFDs are displayed on the tablet? All the OSBs work etc. Thanks

good fly guys1. Ok, I’ve got 1.6.5 running it but there’s -“java.io.filenotfound.exception” for log file, seems problem with android security … cannot access/create log file. No problem with 1.6.4. !!
2. Can you enable full-screen on android ? I have upper status bar (battery etc…) active all the time , in 1.6.4 it wasn’t.
I’ll run it tonight in BMS to see how it behaves.
And, Please Komurcu give us a nice F16 icon for apk yes?
Cheers, and Thank you.

Hi, yes ok that did the trick. Log is accessible now. Thank you very much so.
@Kommurcu . Please, one more thing , can you somehow better mark which MFD is selected, mfd SOI frame, maybe change color to … i dont know eg. “low yellowish” , … it is kinda hard to distinguish on which MFD frame is , as frame is somewhat broken where the fsk (mfd) buttons text are.
!!Anyway, reporting that all works good., haven’t got any problems. Thanks again Komurcu.
Tho, refresh is kinda lousy, jitterish, when connecting via WLAN , but i guess is to be expected. That is just my lousy wifi connection. But, when tablet is connected via usb tethered network, i get frames
just like that , I can put refresh on “30” (in app) and it almost seems real-time. like, PERFECT , don’t want any betterEven data throughput is not that small … some constant ~2MB/s . THAT IS almost 16mbit/s , for 54mbit(g) wifi , it is 1/3 of the bandwidth… so … bear that in mind if using wireless and have more then one device on wireless of which use (g) standard … if your wireless is >150mbit/s or more … there shouldn’t be problem other then distance to the router.
Cable is still the best , even an USB2 one which allows to 400mbit/s … depends on hw… etc. eh.Cheers

Having the same issue. If you worked out a solution can you post it?

Same here. Hopefully there is something, I really appreciate the functionality of this program.
