Hi,

Cool idea. I’m also thinking about building a home cockpit based on X-Plane but I’m a bit worried whether I’ll be able to get the hardware to communicate properly with the X-Plane.

By the way, where in Netherlands are you located?

Yes cockpit # 1 was a MSFS2004 simulator. I had 5 of the 7 view monitors working and a few instrument monitors. On the view monitors you can only see what is outside, no wings, no propellors. Because these monitors were driven by MSFS2004 in skew mode. That is a mode where the simulator gets its data (coordinates, weather, time) via a network and just show what one would see in a certain direction. the instrument monitors were driven by the PC with the simulator that is actually controlled by the usb joystick. This is where I fly. I used 4 PC’s: one to fly on and drive the instrument screens, 1 for the front view and 1 for the 2 right side monitors, and 1 PC for the left ones. The views would look the same for a cesna as for a 737, that would also be in the real world, wouldn’t it? It makes no difference if you look outside in a boeing or in a cesna. But the instruments would be different. And of course the handling of the airplane. And that is all controlled by the fly-PC. Just a matter of loading a different plane.

When you have 1 PC with a multihead videocard (those that support 2 monitors) you can connect 2 screens to it and display different content on the screens. WITH MSFS YOU CAN also 2 different views. WITH XPLANE 9 YOU CANNOT! You can only use xplane on 1 screen and an instructors screen on the other one on the same pc. That is a pitty because now I am forced to use 1 PC for 1 outside view…
What should be possible, on the other hand, is to run 2 instances of X Plane 9 on the same PC, each with its own screen. But you need a very powerfull PC for that.
With NVIDIA video cards it should be possible to run a X screen on each head (VGA-port).
What’s possible too, and that’s what I’ll be using on my Fly-PC (the one with the 4 screens) is an instance of xplane, with some third party software like VAS-FMC and maybe a GPS on all separate screens.
