getParameter - extended DeviceLink replacement

Can this be used to create a speedbar like in IL2-1946? ie speed, altitude & heading?

Great finding Ataros, now I've got the subject quite clear and I think with a litle bit of programming an interface it would be quite simple to make external gauges work, either in a second monitor or using phidgets I think.

I'll start coding a little bit tonite to see what are exactly the possibilities that open up doing the things like this.

Great news.

Sorry, I think I've seen it in another of your posts Ataros, but I cannot find it now so could you please tell me which are the dll's containing the maddox.game namespace?

Thanks in advance.

Do you mean this post?

Visual Studio will let you see all of the methods in roundabout way. Try this:

1. File >> New >> Project Type in a name and solution name at the bottom. Don't worry about what kind of project you create.

2. On the right side under "Solution Explorer", right click on "References", "Add Reference..."

3. Click on the "Browse" tab, navigate to "Steam/steamapps/common/il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover/parts/core"

4. Go through each .dll file in that list and try to add it. Some will give you an error, just skip those.

After you've added all the .dll files, right click on the name of your project and do "Add Existing Item". Find one of your script files and add it. Now Visual Studio will show you all the possible methods as you're typing your code. You can also go to View >> Object Browser and have a look in there.

Important: When you import an existing item, Visual Studio makes a copy of the file so any changes you make won't be reflected in the original file, you'll have to copy the new one over it. If anybody knows how to change this, I'd be quite grateful.
