Just an update that RPM v0.30.1 (12/05/18) changelog indicates:

- The inverted MFD problem in DX9 has been resolved. Issue #659.

I saw that too...
I'm also hoping someone picks this mod up... I'm working on a new IVA for it, too.

I tried a recompile for 1.4.3, but even after many, many hours trying to learn the basics of C, its obvious i will never be a coder...
On a recompile, i am getting a single error, keeping it from compiling... i think it could be related to my install of MS Build Tools, tho...
But i'm pretty much clueless when it comes to code :(

If it is fixed, then I’ll continue this mod.

has it been released yet?

Yes it has been released. In fact v0.30.2 was released which added:

- The inverted MFD problem in DX12 has also been resolved. Issue #665.

Hopefully we won't encounter that problem anymore.

Here is a beta release:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/a1k5hq911tb7zz8/ProbeControlRoom-1.2.2.10.zip?dl=0

I don't use this, the extremely limited testing I did showed that the "No Signal" was flipped left and right.  Before I do anything else, I'd like others to try it and let me know how it works, I'll proceed from there

Note:  You will need to install the ToolbarController as well, it's now a dependency

Edit: The ToolbatController needs the ClickThroughBlocker as well

@linuxgurugamer Thanx for still messing with this mod.

I havent flown a mission yet with the new build, but initially flipping thru all the RPM screens, everything seems to be working :thumbs_up:

Ok, then I'll see if I can figure out why the images are flipped left/right and then release it.

Actually, I jjust tried it with forcing Dx11, and some of the RPM screens are still upside down/backwards. :(
Seems like there is one or more layers that make up the displays that are displaying that way.

It all seems to work for Dx9...

I guess MOARdV has seemingly "half" fixed the issue, as Dx9 seems ok, but Dx11 is still having the issue. :(

I'll go post on the RPM thread now, and I also want to install one or more other RPM IVAs and try them, just to make sure its not something somehow specific to Probe Control Room.

I don't have the time today to test the current build unfortunately. Atleast we know that the issue is actively being worked on. The Dx11 issue is probably on RPM side as neither of the updates to fix the MFDs mentioned Dx11. Its possible the next update will.

When I tried it, everything looked OK except for the labels for the Mission Elapsed Time and Mission Name screens at the top of the wall, which were upside-down. Everything on the actual control screens was fined. This was with the ASET props, not the default RPM screens.

Per a couple of the latest posts on the RPM thread, it seems AntiAliasing settings affect a couple small sections of a couple of the RPM screens.

For the relative posts, start here: (I linked a couple pics of the issue, there)

I would *not* say that the issue i brought, up makes RPM and Probe Control Room unusable... If it *does* bug people enuff, I found that turning off AA in-game, as well as making sure all 5 of the AA settings in the Nvidia Control Panel are turned off for KSP, fixes this (IMHO), minor issue...

If anyone comes up with more details or fixes, please post... (at least on the RPM thread)

This mod is fantastic!

I'm running into an issue though...I'm using this with USI life support, and my crew have run out of supplies and become tourists.  I have a probe core on the ship and a commnet connection, so it is controllable.  However I cannot use the ProbeControlRoom view, so I am stuck with the vessel IVA (ASET/RPM/etc) but I cannot click any of the buttons in the cockpit because the crew refuse to raise their arms and flip switches.  I imagine this would also be an issue for any tourist vessel controlled remotely by a probe.

I'd like to change ProbeControlRoom so that the control room is available any time you have a probe core onboard.  Ideally only when you also have a comm signal, but that's a stretch goal.  I'm a programmer and could probably make the change myself (new to KSP modding though), but I'm hoping you could give some advice on what to look for or how you would make this change in the cleanest way possible.  Thanks!

If there is a probe core on aboard, it should work.   If it isn't, then something else is wrong

Also, I didn't write this, just picked it up because I didn't want to see it die

It seems to be working for me in 1.6.1
Both Raster Prop Monitor and ModuleManager have had very recent updates. Make sure you have the leatest versions.
ModuleManager v3.1.3 and RPM v0.30.6

It worked. Not enough "Toolbar Controller and ClickThroughBlocker". thank you.

I just wanted to note here that MOARdV has decided to stop official development of RPM (at support for KSP 1.6.1) to focus on MOARdV's Avionics Systems, however RPM should still work unless there are major changes to IVA modules in 1.7 and above. 

@Stone Blue I'm interested, are you still attempting to create an IVA or have you decided to moved on?

Nope.. still here, still poking at it...

What I have planned is to start from scratch using MAS stuff first... then only use any RPM props if there are no MAS equivalents yet.
Having stock, ASET, RPM and MAS props all loaded up in Unity is quite a bunch to navigate thru, especially when many have identical or close to identical names.

So I've started a side-project to get myself aquainted with the MAS stuff without RPM involved at all. I've been putting together a MAS IVA for the new Mk2 Lander Can/Rover.

I have most of the gauges selected and laid out... but then RL hit hard a couple weeks ago.

i hope to be back at it in a couple days. Then hopefully back at the Control Room soon after.

Is this compatible with KSP 1.7 or is this mod dead?

It's not dead, just on life support.

I don't use it, so can't answer.  It will most likely work in 1.7, please try it and let me know.  If you do have a problem, I can try to fix it.
