BRAINSTORMING FOR A NEW INTERFACE FOR FALCON BMS
Hi guys,
as this forum is full of knowledge and experience with the process of interfacing our cockpits with THE civilian simulator for the mighty Viper, it is definitely a good place to start such a collection of ideas.
Let me introduce you to the topic and the plan.
A member of our germany BMS community is a also a member of the team of Benchmark Sims and happens to be the SME for the shared memory, we all are heavily relying on, to interface our cockpits.
By accident we came across the topic of inputs via shared memory in our messenger chat group and he suggested, that we should forward him our ideas and wishes for a "RPC I/O Interface" in a structured and listed form until we have our next big meeting in person in november at our anual LAN-Party.
I offered to take on the task of collecting all the ideas and will bring them into a comprehensive format to present them all to him. Then I had the idea to adress this big plenum of cockpit builders as well and asked him, if it'd be okay to adress guys outside of the community of the LAN-Party - in the end, we all are the BMS family, so he was totally okay with that.
Little disclaimer anyway: Please do not get in touch with him directly, because thats the whole point of this brainstorming, getting all our minds together and present him with a useable list of requirements for his project in the first place, without the need for him to wrap his head around countless conversations with a lot of guys. Thats my job in this case :notes:
So now we need you!
If only BMS could do that...
Who did not have thoughts like that yet, while he was thinking how to interface his cockpit with BMS using either software from the pitbuilder community or was trying to implement his own solution. Thats the place now, where we can talk all these things and not only regarding outputs from BMS to our pits but all the way around as well, meaning inputs! Gone could be the days of hours writing keyfiles or fideling with device sorting files.
Be creative and please send me your wishes and ideas via the personal messages here in the VP forum. I will process them into one big list and categorize all of these to make it nice and easy to comprehend for our friend and will also regulary update you on all your submissions in this thread until the final version, which will go to MR Interface in november.
Looking forward to your messages!

Very interesting but why the need for PM? Can we not put forth ideas here in the open and discuss?

Because it makes it much easier for me to keep track of all the suggestions. But I definitely will keep you up to date of all the ideas/wishes I get in this thread and off course you can discuss them then :ThumbsUp:

I would say:
1) lua: open, fast, small footprint, flexible and extensible
2) sdk based compiled plugins like https://developer.x-plane.com/sdk/plugin-sdk-sample-code/
