[Solved] LINDA: Lua Integrated Non-complex Assigning tool

LINDA is an add-on that provides an integrated environment for handling lua scripts with FSUIPC. It comes with many pre-made modules that provide assignments for specific aircraft and controllers. It has versions compatible with all versions of FSUIPC from FSUIPC4 and onwards.

Unfortunately the original developer of LINDA, Andrew Gransden, no longer supports or develops LINDA. However, it is open source freeware and is support is available via the Community on the AVSim support forum.

Even though it is now not under development, it is still a valid and useful tool, especially for FSX and P3D. It can be used with MSFS2020/2024, but there may be a lack of working modules for many aircraft in these simulators.

Below id the original LINDA post when it was originally released back in 2011 (with links updated).

Please do not post for support on LINDA in these forums - use the provided LINDA support forums on AVSim.

We are proud to announce the relase of LINDA!

LINDA is the Lua Integrated Non-complex Device Assigning Tool for FSX.

Developed by Artem Crum was LINDA growing over the last month from a few LUA scriptings to a complete Interface with many useful tools and abilities!

- With LINDA you could easily assign any of your Joysticks/HID Devices via a simple pop-up menu

- easy assigning with one click of all FSX controls

- Theres already a set of LUA scripts integrated so can assign special functions for several addons, like PMDG MD11/JS41 or A2A Accusim aircraft, IFly737 etc (you can assign these functions as easy as normal commands: simple click into the pop-up)

- VRInsights MCP Combo is fully supported and LINDA added much more features to the combo, like enhanced display possibilities, radio mode button toggles Radio DME/ADF/VOR sounds, several modes for each part of the combo.

- Easy changing and assigning of controls and functions (simple pop-up click)

- No SerialFB and Keymapper needed any longer (but you could run it if you use other VRInsight devices), No VSPE needed.

- LINDA should be a platform for creating and gathering LUA scripts for advanced addons

- LINDA has several useful tools implemented so that LUA hunting and creating functions for advanced addons would be a lot easier!

That just a few features ... read more in the LINDA forum at AVSIM, please

Oh, nearly forgot it ... LINDA is freeware!

I hope we could see you as new LINDA users, soon 😉

Thanks for reading!
