• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

G1000 Bugs?

When using simconnect and event ID's to affect changes to the G1000 in FSX I have noticed several issues.

KOHLSMAN_INC and KOHLSMAN_DEC only affect the standby altimeter. ALthough this is true in a real plane, there is no event ID to set the G1000 Baro. It is kind of interesting that they did not make the event ID affect the G1000 setting becuase it does affect the AP and GPS (although there is no real integration), in some real planes you must set each separate.

Second, in VC I can control all of the settings on the G1000 (except Baro), but when I use the PFD or MFD view, some of the functions work and some don't.

I will nned to check my simmconnect version to see if I have the most recent update.
 
I'm not a guage expert, but what would happen if you used KOHLSMAN_INC:2 and KOHLSMAN_DEC:2.

The XML in the g1000.cab g1000pdf.xml file has the scale get it's value from a A:KOHLSMAN SETTING HG:2, InHg.

Just a shot in the dark.
 
Tried that but simconnect does not like it as an event. I will try to set the guage to match the standby gauge. Thanks
