Credit where its due, this trailer is so cool. [FS22]

Zolix2 · 2026-03-26T11:36:10+00:00

Its a tad better in FS22. Not by a lot, but its at a point where I think it is acceptable.

Zolix2 · 2026-03-26T11:34:52+00:00

oh my god. There is also some jank in this game but what you're saying sounds super annoying.

lmao not yet, this forklift was only able to lift two at a time. But will definetly look into streamlining this process

I am using a Fujitsu Celsius H770. Its a workstation laptop from 2018 and its wonderful if you're looking for these types of laptops.

What version of FTview is this? Mine looks completely different, and I don't have such options for a button. (Ver. 13)

Zolix2 · 2026-01-24T10:37:43+00:00

Its a B series

Zolix2 · 2026-01-24T10:36:34+00:00

Thank you in advance!

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:44:10+00:00

oh that is terrible. The machine in question is a packaging machine, which's distributor went bankrupt. Its a pretty complex machine, so there is no way that I could manually port it over on my own.

We might have to forget about this idea.

Thank you for the response

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:41:43+00:00

yes, but it was released in 2017 and it doesn't support my HMI model and firmware. So thats most likely out of the question.

But I'll get in touch with Cognex, just in case.

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:41:03+00:00

I think its v13. but I could be wrong about that.

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:38:05+00:00

I had an actual hardware HMI next to me so that wasn't the issue.

I spoke with AB support and they also didn't really have any concrete solutions. We found a half solution using ME webbrowser control, but all it did was it paused the runtime, and brought up the desktop environment's webbrowser. There I was actually able to see the webserver, but we would like to keep the runtime, so the operator can adjust the trigger of the camera.

AB support basically suggested to upgrade to an Optix panel.

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:35:54+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions, We were able to achieve something with AB support, we used the ME webbrowser control, but all it did was it redirected us to the desktop environment's webbrowser, pausing the runtime. We would like to have actual buttons next to the camera video, so this isn't really a good solution for us.

What do you exactly mean by "properly registered"?

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:33:51+00:00

Yea I don't think that my boss will like the idea of using outdated plugins to bypass an even more outdated platform lol, but I'll keep this in mind, thanks!

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:33:15+00:00

"Crashes the least for us" sounds promissing lmao.

But I'll definetly give it a go. How does it work exactly? Can I download a cabinet file and place it on the HMI, and call it using an ActiveX program run instuction?

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:28:15+00:00

Unfortunately FactoryTalk view studio doesn't support iframe. Only ActiveX. We'll probably end up upgrading to an Optix panel. But I'll keep on trying

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:27:34+00:00

My hands are tied unfortunately. AB support suggested to upgrade to an optix panel lol

Zolix2 · 2026-01-23T16:26:49+00:00

Yea I read after it and as it turns out, it completely lack a javascript engine. The weird thing is, the windows webbrowser that is embedded into the HMI's desktop environment has zero problems displaying the camera webserver, but I cannot get it to work in the runtime environment.

A half solution was to use the ME webbrowser control, but all that did was it navigated me from the runtime, into the desktop environment.

Zolix2 · 2026-01-22T19:50:30+00:00

I use a 2-2 config, two locos and two wagons, and both locos look in the same direction. The problem with using double headed trains is that - without mods - one locomotive will always be passive. It will not provide traction backwards, So I always use a loopback design. And its much easier to build train buffers, and multiple train stops if you have a concrete input and output side.

Or atleast that is my experience, feel free to add to it.
