yeah im aware of the problem, i've adjust the first page to include the mirrors that work

Hi,

Would it be possible for the main page to either include a link to the vista fix or at least mention that it's incompatible with the OS? Just wasted a fair amount of time trying to get this to work

as i dont use vista, i dont really know about the problem or solution to it.

im just assuming that it might be simlar to the Custom Gui problem where a workaround was found.

but if anyone can test it under vista, i will add the details to the first page

I have a G15(which is loosing paint on the keys and keyboard) and haveused the the LCD like 2 times(my desk covers the back of the keyboard), don't even use the macros. This will be one of the first rare occasions I use the lcd.

Thanks for the help, I'd offer to test it however I'm not knowledgable enough about coding to do it properly. Seems a shame really as the main screen can be quite sparse at times and the extra info sounds handy.

Hey!
First of all i have to say I'm really happy someone did an applet like this one.

But unfortunately, it doesn't work for me!
All the LCD says is "No Game Found".
I followed all the installation steps correctly, i think. Here is what I've done:

- I installed your applet and started it
- I installed the plugin through the X - Plugin Manager
- I opened the GamePanel Manager and set the path of the X3.exe (I didnt
touch the logfile number, it's still 09003)

Did I miss any step?

Well, I never worked with sripts before so this was the first time I activated it. In the AL options, it says "ReadText9003-1" and this option is activated. I found the 3 G15 scripts in the script editor and run them manually (through "r") but it still says "No Game Found"....

Please tell me what else i have to do!
I'm really looking forward to this applet!

Greetings, crk

EDIT: Can't believe it...THANK YOU VERY MUCH Osiris_sam!

He wrote some time ago, that you have to convert the spk file using the converter that comes with the plugin manager and it WORKED PERFECTLY.

I'm off, playing X3

thanks for the great applet!

Success! I have the G15 and have tried unsuccessfully to load. All I got is the "X3 Reunion No Game Found" screen. I thought this would be a good place to start my scripting experience but then I became discouraged. I may have missed something obvious but I just was not sure (Nicky New Guy). I've then read the thread and I saw the part about converting the spk file. BINGO! Took me a bit of time to figure out the mechanics as it's been a long time since I have seen the DOS Prompt! THANKS!

One thing that seems to jump out at me is that I don't know what the AL Plugins Menu is??? Sorry to be dummy but sometimes you just have to admit your ignorance, put away the pride and ask the dumb question.

Thanks for taking the time to respond!

Post by **Cycrow** » Thu, 14. Feb 08, 12:03

the AL Plugin Menu is in game, in the Gameplay options menu

it open appears when u've enabled scripts, and has various options for different scripts that u've installed

blackhawk92 · Post by **blackhawk92** » Fri, 4. Apr 08, 22:27

Is it possible, that the script doesn`t work with version 2.5 of X3?
I did everything to bring it to work, but it says "no game found"
I converted the spk file, checked the AL-settings, and controlled the game location(and port) in the lcd Manager.

What could be the reason???

If my english is bad, I´m sorry, I´m from germany.

EDIT: My problem is solved... I just restarted the X3LCD and... IT WORKS!

this is usually caused when you havn't got EMP installed, which is required for the combat computer

mauxion wrote: race ranks don't show percentage only trade and combat ranks have it

simple anwser, you cant

basically, i couldn't get the prectages to display correctly.

the numbers and display in the game simply didn't add up, so the pertages were always out. So i desicded to simply not display them

The basics of the log file work well with a quickly hacked together plugin for LCDSmartie, just one question - is the M7 included in one of the other ship classes?

Post by **Cycrow** » Wed, 23. Apr 08, 20:56

no, the m7 wont be included.

as it was made before m7's were available its not be specifically added.

and it wont show up in the other classes either

Mic-Bus · Post by **Mic-Bus** » Sat, 17. May 08, 09:45

so, a next german people need help.

I have problem to bring the applet to a function, i see only, x3 Reunion no game found display.

I take the next steps.
- I installed your applet and started it
- I installed the plugin through the X - Plugin Manager
- I opened the GamePanel Manager and set the path of the X3.exe (I didnt
touch the logfile number, it's still 09003) (copied from a post higher, thx for written.)

in X3, i activated the srcipteditor.
there i can find the X3 applet files:
al.logitechg15.main
al.logitechg15.timer
al.plugin.logitechg15
exampel.lcd.display

so, i think, the sripts are installed.

ive restarted the x3-applet for any times, and also i showed in the windows taskmanager, that there was only 1 times this X3lcd.exe task.

BUT, i becomes only the X3 reunion no game found displayed.

ingame, with activad scripteditor, i didn't found the applet in the AL game options. (ingame, esc, game, scrolled down to "Artifical Life-Einstellungen" and open it, there ist nothing.)

what am i doing wrong?

ive also looked that the applet in the x plugin manager was actived.

(sry for my terrible english.

)

P.S. I hoped, a german one, wo read this, and uses this applet fully functionally, can also help me.

Just out of curiosity, did you re-start your computer?

I found that after a restart the plugin worked for me, whereas it didnot work after installed..

Zero-nt- · Post by **Zero-nt-** » Sat, 17. May 08, 23:44

I'm having the same issues.

I followed every step to the t, and all I ever get is a "No Game Found" on my LCD.

The script is enabled according to X Plugin Manager.
I have the correct install directory set in the LCD control panel (c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\x3 - reunion)
Use pilot name "Thereshallbewings" to activate all the scripts I use

but when I go into options and select the AL Plugin option, all I see is a bar that says "Plug ins", I imagine there should be a list underneath or something? But there's nothing there for me to select at all.

I've tried reinstalling, restarting, repatching, even did the whole SPKconvert thing even though I believe you said it had been updated in an earlier post (maybe not)

Regardless, I've taken every step short of reinstalling Windows XP, and nothing has made the plugin work.

madprof · Post by **madprof** » Sat, 17. May 08, 23:50

@MikeLucien.

I'm using LCD Smartie http://lcdsmartie.sourceforge.net/ to drive the display, this can get information from extension dlls. Fortunately for me Cycrow made the log file nice and easy to parse, so I knocked together a quick dll in C#, quick in the fact hardcoded paths and very little error checking.

I'm using LCD Smartie as it can talk my Palm PDA connected via usb with it running an LCD emulation program.

If Cycrow doesn't mind me making using of his script I'll tidy the code up a bit and make it available with some instructions.

if its not being displayed in the al life settings, then it is a problem with the install of the script.

if its running correctly, it will show up there.

so i would check that you have the install directory correct, and that the script are present in your x3 directory

the game not found usually means that the program is unable to find the log file.

so either its not being created because the scripts arn't running, or your point the program to the wrong place so it cant find the file. So i would check these.

also, if the scripts are running correctly, you should find the log file in the X3 Directory
