Weepops Helios profile

[weepop]

My profile is derived from Ice’s but with a few additions:-
Eyebrow warning light implemented (from Rogue’s Profile Thankyou Rogue)
Terrain following radar implemented (ditto)
Improved landing gear handle operation (ditto)
Additional buttons on airport charts to set Tacan UHF VHF and GPS coordinates.(see fourth thumbnail of Seosan Airport).
Plus many more.
NOW UPDATED TO BMS 4.34

This is a profile to best suit someone with a CH Hotas setup,
a Logitech G19 keyboard and a 1920x1080 touchscreen monitor,but not all neccesary
(Cockpit extraction left settings on M1-3 are for a touchscreen to left of mainscreen.)

The ICP can be operated from helios or keyboard , see M1-3 or page 2 of keyboard pdf.

M1-3.jpg also shows my Logitech G19 Programs.

I do not use any DX settings.

The weepop keyboard.pdf matches the weepopBMS4-Full.key

Instructions:-
Unzip WeepopFull.zip to images folder.
Add Earlier F16s.hpf and Later F16s(AIFF).hpf to profile folder.
Add weepop BMS-Full.key to config folder in Falcon.
Add weepop.xml to YAME layouts folder
Add weepop BMS4 .map to docs/CH control manager/maps folder (only if you have CH HOTAS)

THANKS AGAIN TO ICE AND ROGUE

[JohnBowzer]

Hi. Thanks for this. One thing I do not see working, and not sure if it is something in my set up, within profile editor or sim the left and right consoles do not come up via clicking in the top left or right corner. The airports and data cards links work.

[Toto]

@weepop

I checked out your profile and (at least on my setup) your eyebrow lights are on top of all of your cards.

Corrected and uploaded new .hpf file

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.

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

[Blackduke]

thank you very much for your work, weepop.

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.
Pika out.

[weepop]

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

Blackduke are you using my profile or just updating Ice’s with my goodies?

[weepop]

Pika
what operating system and graphics card are you using?

[pikachu]

My Rig:
Intel Core i7-3520 CPU, 2.90GHz Not OC
RAM: 6.00GB
500 GB HDD
Integrated Graphics Card: Intel HD Graphics 4000
64-bit Windows 10 Pro Operating System
BMS 4.33 64 bit
Saitek X52
TrackIR 4

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

[weepop]

I’m not familiar with Intel I use AMD but have you got your two monitors set up as an extended desktop?

[pikachu]

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.

[weepop]

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 .

[pikachu]

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

[weepop]

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 screen

[JohnBowzer]

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

[pikachu]

@JohnBowzer:

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.
Pika out

[JohnBowzer]

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?

[Guest]

You can click them with the mouse, but yes, this was designed for touchscreen use.
