Gene Cao 1100087 Posted January 16, 2012 at 03:57 AM Posted January 16, 2012 at 03:57 AM Couple more questions: I looked through the docs and it said that one of the command shortcuts was the display maps outside of the first 28. However, browsing through I have been unable to locate this command line. Is it in there, and whats the cheat code? Also, for the CRDA monitor, I understand that it is supposed to be for converging runways. However, is there any way to get this for parallel runways, especially sim close par? Such as SFO 28L/28R. Lastly, this isn't really a vSTARS question as much as a VATSIM question. Are you allowed to run vSTARS and VRC at the same time? Such as running vSTARS for the TRACON, but then using a VRC display in order to get ASDE-X displays for the airports so that you can easily do ground and clearance?

However, browsing through I have been unable to locate this command line. Is it in there, and whats the cheat code? Cheat code ... it's not cheating, I [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ure you. See page 3 of the command reference. Also, for the CRDA monitor, I understand that it is supposed to be for converging runways. However, is there any way to get this for parallel runways, especially sim close par? Such as SFO 28L/28R. You can set up CRDA for any two runways that you want. Technically, it doesn't even have to be used on runways. Lastly, this isn't really a vSTARS question as much as a VATSIM question. Are you allowed to run vSTARS and VRC at the same time? Such as running vSTARS for the TRACON, but then using a VRC display in order to get ASDE-X displays for the airports so that you can easily do ground and clearance? No, VATSIM policy prohibits multiple connections. The only exception is that you can have a voice ATIS connection alongside a normal controlling connection.

I notice it says 3 numbers; does that mean up to 999 vidmaps?!? 2. Awesome, guess I shall set em up for parallel ILS and converging ILS/LDA approaches. 3. Darn, guess I hafta get used to working ground blind heheh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Carlson Posted January 16, 2012 at 06:03 AM Posted January 16, 2012 at 06:03 AM If only Bookmarks respected Video map selection I had the same thought when I built the TDM feature, but then I realized that your bookmarks are not pref-set specific, but video map selections are. So that presents a problem. I just thought of a better way, I think ... allow video maps to be marked as "TDM Only" in the video map list.

I have a feeling it'll come up a lot, and I'd like to keep the thread subject lines appropriate so that they're easier to find.
