Hello Sebastian, Well done You are the Man of the Year. Great job. I await more visual tutorials from you. You made my day. I was able to map almost 50% of my switches and annunciators with the release of this video. Well done and thank you so much for the transfer of knowledge. Cheers Bala
Thanks for your kind words! i am happy it was useful for you. If you would like to support the project consider becoming a sponsor github.com/sponsors/MobiFlight
Many thanks Sebastian, i was finding xuipc a bit difficult and very limiting. The new UI looks great and i cant wait to try it. Thanks again mate, keep up the great work. John.
Hello thanks for this detailed video , but how can I do this for SSG B748I xplane 12 , the output is ok , but if I want to switch on the taxi light I will not find the command Ifind only the dataref ,which is unable to give input .
03 JULY 2024 - I have latest versions of Mobiflight, and trying to have it find custom datarefs in payware aircraft eg CowanSim H125/AS350. Mobi finds all the standard X-plane datarefs, but cannot see the custom refs as are visible with the dataref tool (xplane plugin) what is the best way to use mobiflight and the custom datarefs/commands that come with payware ?
Hi Sebastian, there is a windows 7 dataref tool version? When i click Search, xplane11 stops and closes 😕 i tried using XPUIPC with 4 frecuency sharing 3 displays and just 1st frec and last frec show fine, the middle frecs shows incorrect valúes,
I'd like to thank you for this! If / when it works it will be amazing and game changing. Sadly, it doesn't work for me. I turned on debugging in MobiFlight and I can see that messages are trying to be sent and received: I can see the buttons I have configured being pushed in the debug log and the dataref values per your video instructions are being requested, but sadly no actual communication to the X-Plane 12 sim. I also tried X-Plane 11. I do get the connected green check mark when the sim is running, and a green check mark for the module too, as I said, MobiFlight also detects the buttons I have setup for testing, just no communication to X-Plane. I am running X-Plane installed via Steam, does that make a difference. I'm running MobiFlight Connector 9.6.0. Win 10 Pro 21H1 X-Plane 12 b12 This will be so amazing if it can work!! Thanks again for your work!
Hm. That is indeed strange. I have personally never tried the steam version but it should also work. which plane are you using? Please join our Discord for better helping you.
I just wanted to reply that from the beginning I thought I was missing something simple, and of course now that I finally had time to come back to this project and I found the stupid thing I was doing wrong. Mobiflight is indeed a game changer for building sim cockpits. Also works great in MSFS using Simconnect. Amazing. Version 9.7 is the best yet! Donated today too. Thank you!
X-Plane 11 does not connect to Mobiflight. Are settings necessary in X-Plane? Mobiflight, X-Plane 11 and DataRefTool are up to date. Mobiflight shows a yellow triangle in Sim Status.
hello,Sebastian,how are you? please, in your next update of your excellent mobiflight program, could you implement the Cirrus jet vision SF-50, in the Aircraft package, for X-Plane11. I'm having difficulties implementing some switches and the Garmin G1000. I tried to follow your step by step, but I couldn't,DatReef Read Example thanks!
hello Sebastian nice work and great dedication! congratulations for the channel content, I need some help on "compare" in MobiFlight, I'm using this in "comparassion settingns: "if current value is: < 2 ; set it to: if($=0,'COM','HDG') else set it to: if($=2,'FMS','NAV') ........which is only 4 items and i need 8 items how can i do that? can you help me? tks!
yes you could actually nest more if() statements - similar to excel. The space is limited so it's easier to prepare it in a separate editor, eg notepad, and later paste it into mobiflight
@@MobiFlight OK, but I don't know how to make this formula change to 8 items, I see that you've only used 4 as in the transponder among others, what would the formula be for 8 items? I've tried everything but I lack knowledge of the variables....can you help me?
I don't have the section where I can paste a dataref command. I'm using the latest version of mobiflight 9.6.0. Programming switches for the PMDG 737 in MSFS is way easier.
Very cool. I really wish you'd let go of this idea that we all have cockpits though. I only want to create specific plug in peripherals and the lack of button matrixes is preventing me from creating an FMC. Under no circumstances will I ever settle for using more than one arduino per device.
Hi Sebastion, thank you for your vids all new to me atm, can you please explain the difference between shift registers and multiplexers other than giving more connections than no. of wires Thanks.
@@departingthefix123 you can read about on the wiki github.com/MobiFlight/MobiFlight-Connector/wiki/Input-and-Output-devices - the one works with SPI and the other one a bit differently.
@@MobiFlight yes all config boxes are checked. I managed to get a couple of the buttons working by using "command" but struggling to find a solution. Maybe the data refs I am using are wrong
Hello Sebastian. This looks like it would be amazing, but I do everything you say, and nothing works except an error message "No FSUIPC found". Please help!
And what about Prepar3D? I use Aerosoft A320.When I use Mobiflight to learn how to make individual cockpit,I found there are not "General-Parking Brake" on your tutorial which you wrote in the Mobiflight website.@@MobiFlight
i really hate to say it but mac support is not on my todo list. I am planning to rewrite the entire UI and I hope that i an do multiplatform then simply because the framework that i'm gonna choose will support it. But even then i can't tell whether it will work fine on Mac - maybe if i throw all SimConnect etc out it might. But i will be focusing on Windows platform first.
@@Jocarter4 i do the project all in my spare time and most simmers have the pc platform and i support all major sims. macos it's a nice to have on e i am done with the UI rewrite
Totally understand. PCs far outnumber MACs for this use, but just had to ask. Wasn’t sure if it was a rewrite issue or a few clicks to compile it for ARM64.
Mobiflight is awesome, thank you Sebastián...!
you guys are all awesome! thanks for the feedback and for being part of this great community

I will surely do that.
Awesome as ever, I love x-plane support, the sneak peek looks wonderfull. Thanks for everything
you can now try it in the beta if you like or wait for the official release in 2 weeks
Thanks SOO Much!!! New DIY home cockpit user here, so I'm looking forward to more awesome updates!!
Welcome to Mobiflight!!! Updates are coming all the time - i am working on the next release already!!!

so should I watch the intro video of doing the parking brake led (which seems geared to msfs) before coming to this video ?
the getting started video is great to understand the basics - taking that to xplane is easy

FSUiPC is not needed anymore for XPlane. You can ignore the message - make sure you only use the new XPlane DataRefs
@@MobiFlight great! Got it, I’ll try it again. Thank you
Thanks for the video, and your hard work :) Are potentiometer supported in xplane 11 as I cant get them to work?
yes they are. you can use the value of the potentiometer with @ and write it to a data ref
@@MobiFlightGreat. where can I find more understanding of "you can use the value of the potentiometer with @ and write it to a data ref"
@@grenambrose7492 in general you can reference the current potentiometer value in your input action by using @
@@MobiFlight how do I do this, please? Thank you.
I've tried many things and I can not get a pot to work as throttle, any idea why? Its been really frustrating. Thank you.
will hubhop intergrate with tough portal for xplane 12? thx
touch portal could totally do that. code is available since everything is open sourxe
Hello Sebastian！
Can I create a Toliss A320 MCDU for Xplane11 by using Mobiflight?

No Linux support?
nope. Mobiflight still uses .NET Framework and only runs on Windows.
does Mobiflight support steam games ?
steam games or steam gauges?
@ steam games. Im using MSFS on steam platform

Now we talking. Xplane is way better than msfs
the best thing is: mobiflight supports both and you can switch between them
Hello it is great, but 9.7.1 don’t support dataref, please can you put it in the next update both manual dataref and presets, mobiflight the best!!!!!
@@logan2560 what do you mean? 9.7.1 is supposed to support Datarefs and Commands for xplane.
