Lightning's MFDE and 4.33

Why are you still using MFDE and not YAME??

Ok, please list the advantages ?

The only time you have too much fuel is when you are on fire.

How do you even use Yame? I tried it, and can’t make heads nor tails of it. I know it’s prolly just me, but some help with it would be great!:D
-
Before YAME I used MFDE and GPT. Believe me YAME is much more user friendly and versatile, once you become familiar with it. The YAME Manual is a pretty thorough guide to setup and a good place to start. Beyond that advice, provide a detailed description of your issues and help should be forthcoming.

I’m quite old fart, but no probs using MFDE; tried couple of time with YAME and never able to see the mfds running. That’s why.

It is the RWR I am having problems with in Yame. The threat rings do not show up in-flight, just an empty RWR. Ideas anyone?

I think BMS exports only the RWR emitter symbols. I drew the threat rings on transparent media, fixed it to my display and sized the RWR to fit. I noticed YAME has several different RWR gage graphics, but I do not know whether or not the rings display in cockpit.

Not at my PC now to verify but you have to select “transparent……” at the RWR setup in YAME, it will give you the rings [emoji2]. Same for the DED edges…

Tnx. I’ll try it when I am at my PC

Let’s keep it on-topic please; this is a MFDE thread.
Please discuss YAME in the YAME thread, so ideas, help and support can more easily be found by those needing it.

That is why I have not moved to YAME yet. MFDE is working perfectly and I need time to figure YAME out and I haven’t had any time lately. It is not as simple as MFDE to setup when you are not familiar with it. I look forward to trying it though.

If you are using only MFDE, the performance hit is about the same. The advantages are mostly not having to use CDE and being able to save and share layouts. As a multi-screen user and having used MFDE for years, sometimes the program would go berserk and display my gauges on one of my display screens and not on the touchscreen. I would then have to manually drag each and every gauge and place them juuuuuust right so that they “fit” perfectly under my Helios profile. YAME solves this problem in a few ways, making it easier to move/adjust gauges and you can adjust gauge size and position to-the-pixel. I also used to pair MFDE with CDE as I did not really like the MFDE DED and PFL display, and for some reason, there was a bit of lag on my MFDE MFD images, so I used the CDE for MFDs, DED, and PFL.
For any more questions (ie, advantages, how-to?, etc.), please do go to the YAME thread and I’m sure there’ll be someone happy to help out. Bikeman, to get the RWR image (rings), tick TRANSPARENT BACKGROUND and BACKGROUND IMAGE, then click the IMAGE button and select the appropriate RWR picture. Click APPLY and you should be sorted.
Again, for any more concerns on YAME, head on over to the YAME thread and you should have help in no time!

Thanks for the replies,
Sorry I didn’t realize it was going to be a knots & nickers issue. :munch:

I run both MFDE and Yame at the same time. Yame for the standbys’ and MFDE for the RWR.The mfds I still extract
from BMS itself.They all work good. -
It is my understanding that both YAME and MFDE render the MFD’s with less FPS impact than the BMS extraction utility. Correct or no?

Yes, but how much depends on your graphics card. AMD cards will typically only lose 1-2 fps running BMS extraction, NVIDIA cards will lose much more.
The tradeoff is that using RTT (either using RTTRemote, MFDE or YAME) is slightly more laggy for MFDs compared to using BMS extraction, even if you have ‘Export a new set of images to shared memory’ set to ‘every 1 video frame’ in the config options (recommended). Using external MFD windows in BMS will always be faster than using a 3rd-party extractor like MFDE for that purpose.
Because of the slight lag, AMD owners who like running in windowed mode may still prefer BMS extraction for the MFDs, as cursor control in particular is more responsive. Others may decide that the framerate hit (NVIDIA) or need to run in windowed mode of BMS extraction makes other options preferable.

Note that Yame also offers a 3DHook extractions which does not require RTT and has a positive impact on FPS on most reported user systems so far

Interesting about AMD having different framerate hit than nVidia…
As for using MFDE for the RWR, there is no need to. YAME can display the RWR with image… just follow my instructions above.

@Terminator: it works! Tnx for your help
