FSInt Intro
Posted: Mon Feb 17, 2020 7:52 pm
FSInt has now been released.
This version, v1.2.2, of FSInt has the functionality as described below.
Additional functionality will be added in later releases.
The main goal of this application is to let users build their own home cockpit with any hardware.
The FSInt app in release version 1.2.2 allows connecting all PMDG B737, B747, or B777 cockpit switches, button, and knobs(inputs) to
standard USB connected hardware devices as i.e. Leo Bodnar's BU0386X.
Check What is FSInt?
--------------------------------------
1. FSInt is the ultimate joystick button and keyboard key utility for PMDG airplanes in Prepar3Dv4.
2. Bind any PMDG airplane switch or button to either a joystick button or a keypress.
3. If you want, you can bind the complete airplanes set up from Cold and Dark to Takeoff to only one joystick button or keypress.
4. FSInt works for PMDG B737NGX, B737NGXu, B747, and B777 airplanes.
5. Includes a "Test Events" method to test any Events.
IMPORTANT: Make sure you are using joystick buttons and key presses that are not used in P3D, PMDG or FSUIPC.
Disable active joystick button and keypress bindings in P3D, PMDG, and FSUIPC if needed.
Run "FSInt Setup" and install to your …\Documents\Prepa3D v4 Add-ons folder
Make sure you enable FSInt to read and write to your Documents folder if first not allowed by the security function in Windows.
Start Prepar3D and enable FSInt as Add-on. Once a PMDG B737, B747 or B777 is loaded, start FSInt via P3D's Add-ons menu.
FSInt must be running in order for Joystick and Keypress bindings to work in Prepar3D.
If you want to uninstall FSInt, first delete any incremental FSInt-7x7.ini files before uninstalling via Windows ordinary uninstall method.
