    Ammeter Offset?

    Hello everyone,

    I am just wondering is there an FSUIPC Offset for FSX that will display total Amps flowing around the Cockpit (or something similar)?

    FSInterragator yields no obvious results, and the FSUIPC SDK Manual table of Offsets isn't really arranged in Alphabetical order... Not much help there!

    So yes, an Ammeter offset for FSX.

    Thanks very much,

    Jack

    Re: Ammeter Offset?

    hi there, because im a bored chap i looked in the SDK, on the offsets status pdf. did a quick search for amps and it found all sorts, but the offsets are as follows for different things;
    Total load Amps : 2824
    Main Bus Amps : 2848
    Avionics Bus Amps : 2858
    Hot Battery Bus Amps : 2868

    I cant be bothered to write down the amp offsets for the generators but im sure you get the jist of it! just search for amps and look through the results, it soon appears (on page 29)

    Hope this helps,

    Jordan

    Re: Ammeter Offset?

    Did these actually work for you? When I pull these offsets up in SDK it says in the description "NOT FSUIPC SUPPORTED". I think they are right because none of these are working for me. I even messed around with the parameters a bit and nada, zip, nothing. My ammeter yields nothing but an unsatisfying string of zeros. Anyone find a way to get an ammeter to work?

    I use 282C without any problems. Main Amp Bus. I do use FSBus though but that shouldn't matter for the offset.

    Thanks, I got it to work after all. Normally when I'm making changes I just recompile my script. Usually works, but in this case, nothing, until after I rebooted my computer.
