[Work in Progress] FsPassengers for Prepar3D v4 (64 bits version)

[Rose72]

Thanks all,

First test show that it will not be an easy task. More news within one week I think, stay tuned...

Dan, LM helped Pete program fsuipc5. Maybe you should contact LM and ask them to help you with the programing,

Good idea

[CDreier]

No pressure here, really. But the FSP update is the final one needed to make my switch to v4. It's a "must have" for me.

Hi Dan,

I would like to make two suggestions.

1. Would be possible when working on P3D V4 version, that incorporate the possibility to choose the departure transition altitude and arrival transition altitude? Because here in Brazil you can take off in a 6000ft TA airport and arrive on 5000ft TA airport for example.

2. I would like to suggest also, some shuffle music option. to play a different song without need to choose and avoid to play always the same sequence.

Sorry about my english and thank you.

Fred Matias.

Good afternoon friend Dan, I know you are very busy, we are very anxious with news, your program is the only reason for me to be still in Prepar3D V3.4, I do not live without FsPassengers.

[Branko]

Yes its true, we don't like p3d without fspassenger...

[Joeflyer]

I know that Dan is working on it.

Still working on it, still a lot of work to do.

A bit of explanation about this long delay:
FsPassengers allow a lot of features that aren't possible with the SDK as Flak, belly landing and some direct control of system for failure.
This is possible because FsPassengers make direct call to code in memory (assembly) and I had to find the address to call and how to call them.

With 64 bits, it's not possible anymore (inline assembly is disabled), so I'll have to find workaround as well as modifying a lot of code, It's almost a complete rewrite.

I updated the first post with details, please read it again.

Kind regards

Dan

Never mind that Flak, I/we just want the passenger part :-)

I may release without the flak in a first time and I'll see later about it

[ffantasy67]

Amen!

Yes please Dan, GO for it.

Thanks for your hard work.

Cheers,
