• 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.

KOHLSMAN_SET

In my managed code app, I try to set the altitude pressure using the KOHLSMAN_SET event

using
hr = SimConnect_MapClientEventToSimEvent(hSimConnect, EVENT_EFIS_CPT_BARO, "KOHLSMAN_SET");
and then
SimConnect_TransmitClientEvent(hSimConnect, 0, EVENT_EFIS_CPT_BARO, val, SIMCONNECT_GROUP_PRIORITY_HIGHEST, SIMCONNECT_EVENT_FLAG_GROUPID_IS_PRIORITY);

but there are no changes in the sim

I have tried with val in millibars and in inHg ( i.e.1013 and 29.92), but no luck

Can't figure out what I am doing wrong

here is what i found out:

The Events Kohlsman_Inc, Kohlsman_Dec, and Kohlsman_Set works OK in MSFS's airplanes that use the standard steam gauges, but not the ones that are equipped with the Garmin or other advanced systems.

So now the question is: How do I get access to the Lvars in the ASOBO G1000 and B747, and B787 avionics?
 
Ask ASOBO... only they know what they're supporting... and the SDK is not even remotely ready for actual use.
