Oi4FS works fine in both my development and gaming PC and now with the latest MSFS 1.7.14.0 release, there are no more FPS stutterings.

After you click the big GA airplane image in Oi4FS to start,

first SIOC.exe should start and run in the background
SIOC.ini should now hold your configuration
OiMS.exe start and run in the background

Try to start the OiMS by GA image click both before and after loading the airplane in MSFS
any difference?
There is a OiMS.log file in SIOC folder, delete it before starting Oi4FS and check it after you have tried to run the driver

What is the content?
OK thanks, will try this eveneing and report back! I can try also to write the sioc.ini dircetly and run sioc 7 manually but I guess it will still miss your driver/dll?
Good news it worked! When I started MSFS2020 it had a forced updated and after that I did all setup from scratch again.
After I started your app BEFORE starting MSFS2020 and in the sim I loaded the plane you suggested and it worked. I had not time to test other planes or other OC modules as I had no time but will try to do more tests tonight and I can report back here if you want?
Thank you, keep up the good work fir us!

This function is implemented in the next update coming today or tomorrow.

Hi Roar,

i noticed the following :

MS Cesna Citation

1) Rotating the knobs on the hradware i do not see them moving on the screen
2) Moving the vertical speed the reaction is quite slow compared to the other command and some times the digits are even not updated
3) Moving the IAS it is updated on the screen but the display is always blank

Thanks in advance

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback.

1. There is no way, due to lack of SDK support at this time, to implement rotating knobs in the virtual cockpit. So, the knobs will work without visible rotation in the virtual cockpit. It will be implemented later if an updated SDK supports it.

2. I just tested the VS knob in the Cessna Citation in MSFS v1.18.3, and it works OK for me. Need more info from other to dig further into this for more info from you.

3. IAS will be implemented in the next update. AS there are just a few airplanes that have an Auto Throttle function, there will be a different handling of this function and it takes some time to code it correctly.

If you could provide me a list of GA airplanes that have the Auro Throttle function, it would help me.

As stated earlier my plan is to make a driver for both the B747 and the B787, but not for the A320( it maybe will come later).

These drivers will be sold as add-on drivers to Oi4FS, as they need different driver logic and code.

At this time the lack of SDK functions has been the reason for not having these drivers available. Maybe I will release them, even if they are not working 100%.

Is there any interest in that?
