Is it possible with CoD? I have an extra touchscreen monitor I use with Helios and DCS and would love to make use of it with CoD. Is instrument extraction possible at all?

yes it's possible to get instrument data from the game

however as far as i know, no one has written a script to send this data to an external source yet such as you suggest

Well the ability to do it is the most important. Too bad I have no skill or knowledge in this area.

afaik there is no such app/script extant atm- if anyone knows better please tell.

for CoD the only(afaik) display options for such data has been by the addition of a 'speedbar' type addition on main gaming screen

Yes as per the script link bolox provided..

Problem 'is' as it 'was' with IL-2.. You wont be able to use it while flying online, unless your the one hosting the mission. IL-2 used DeviceLink to do this, CoD uses C# scripts to do this.. There was/is a mod for IL-2 that enables DeviceLink while online, if you use mods.

That sucks. Too bad the extraction interface isn't mature. This sim would be out of this world if you could use Helios or similar program. I'd love to have virtual levers for mixture, prop pitch, etc that I could drag up and down with my fingers on the touch screen.
