someone working on engine damage thing???

[RyanJames170]

was there someone who was working on a engine damage software or something along those lines for flight sim as a freeware addon? where it would record engine condition and simulate some basic things, something like a "lite" version of A2A's Accusim

Search for "RealEngine", it's a module that can be adapted for any aircraft. Similar to the v35 damage mod.

What is the difrence between the RealEngine thing and the V35 engine mod???

You got the name of the mod you were looking for: the damage mod, also known as freeware Accusim

The main difference with the old RealEngine gauges is that the damage mod will record the actual status of your aircraft, so that it's kept from a flight to another, exactely like Accusim.
Also, it has a graphical interface and much nicer features than RealEngine had.

what your saying is that V35 is better and has a few more fetures like keeping engine status from flight to flight?

how is V35 in terms of someone like me getting it and editing for a spacific aircraft and engine? i am looking to make one for the Cessna 185 being i have been messing with that and i have a few POH's and engine over haul manuals..

Yes you understood correctly. And it's not just the engine. The flaps, gears, various servos for flight controls, oil levels, pitots etc... a lot of various elements of the plane are monitored, and everything is saved.

I did try to alter the gauges to adapt them to the C172, when the very first version of the damage mod got released for the V-35.
The principle is similar to RealEngine: one XML gauge per system to monitor. You can edit them to alter the various thresholds inside.
But I didn't have much time to test honnestly: while I was looking in these gauges, the author announced that he was adapting them for the C172 already. So I stopped my useless investigations
Then came the Baron, the C-208 and the R-22.
Just download the package and take a look inside, you will see it's huge but not too complex.
