Greenie Board Possibilities?

(1/51) > >>

GOONIE:
This is a question for all the FSX mission developers on this forum.

As some of you might remember, TopGun Simulation came out with a mission a few years ago (no longer in business or operating), that was able to keep track of your performance for six carrier traps which you could then load online for a LSO debrief and score (Greenie Board). I remember you had to load a separate piece of software that had to be running in the background while you flew the approaches (I assume this is where the magic happened or tracking of your flight performance).

I was curious if any FSX mission developers have looked at the TGS mission file to see how they captured/tracked your flight performance for the Greenie Board scores online, and if it is possible to recreate a mission with the Sludge hornet and other updates (i.e. correct aircraft carrier speed) that also tracks each of your approaches and collects scores for your review later? I am not sure how much of the tracking was a function of the mission they developed and how much was a function of the extra software they required you to install and have running.

What do you guys think? We know it is possible based on the TGS work, and if I had the FSX SDK and knew how to create missions I would give it a go. Just wanted to throw it out there for discussion. Could be a fun way to setup a greenie board for the Sludge Hornet.

if making anything for fsx was a little more user friendly i'd give it a try, but i dont have the time to do so, the way it currently is.

hopefully someone might consider :)

If I knew simconnect and export traps to a MySQL database, I could use the greenie board available here:

Nevermind.
