Help with Spad.neXt and VoiceAttack (X Plane)
« on: March 02, 2018, 04:53:16 AM »
Can someone walk me through creating a simple command using the Spad.NeXt plugin.

So let's say I want to switch on the taxi light.


I know you have to go to New command -> Other -> Advanced -> execute an external plugin function

At this point I have no idea what to do.  I know I need to put in a dataref somehow / somewhere.

I think the dataref I'm looking for is sim/cockpit/electrical/taxi_light_on


Thanks for your help.

Edit this is for X Plane.

I'm staring to make a little progress.

I figured out that you need to put in Setvalue in the plugin context box.

Then you need to add the Dataref to decimal variables box.

Next you need to set a decimal value //Other -> Advanced -> set a decimal value

Adding data variable as your dataref followed by the decimal number change. -- Example

XPLANE:sim/lights/strobe_lights_on 1

Now I need to figure out how to create custom datarefs for payware aircraft to get what I want working.

I have figured out the very basic ability to execute a command through the Spad.neXt on a custom aircraft using Voiceattack.

I used this plugin to get my missing datarefs - https://github.com/leecbaker/datareftool/releases

Help on it's use can be found here - http://www.spadnext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18741&start=20

What I said above this is exactly how to make a basic command.  Now I have to figure out the more complex stuff.
