[FS9 update issue]

Thank you both I did as you suggested and it solved my issue.

[FS9 update issue]

I am trying to update my version of FSUIPC and WIDFS for FS9. I have both FS9 and FSX on the same computer. I have attached the log from my past attempt to update FS9.

Please see the log and advise, this is the first time this has happened to me.

 

Both FS9 and FSX are fully registered versions.

 

Installer for FSUIPC.DLL version 3.999z8

 

Looking in registry for FS9.1 install path:

     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\9.1

     Parameter"EXE Path"

Not there, so looking in:

     HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\9.1

     Parameter"EXE Path"

... NOT found! ...

Looking in registry for FS9 install path:

     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\9.0

     Parameter"EXE Path"

... >>>  OK! FOUND FS9!  <<< ...

INSTALLATION FOR FS9:

Checking if there's already a version of FSUIPC installed in:

       G:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC.DLL

... Version 3.999z found.

Okay -- installed FSUIPC into "G:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC.DLL"

"Modules\FSUIPC Documents" folder already exists.

Now installing additional files into the "Modules\FSUIPC Documents" folder:

All installer tasks completed okay!

 

[prepar3d & PFC.dll]

The FSX version, PFCFSX, should work fine with Prepar3D. It does here. The old PFC.DLL was only ever for FS9 and before.

Pete

Thank you for your quick reply, I have put put the PFCFSX.dll in the module file,when I start Prepar3D it does not appear like it does in FSX, I have the latest version of FSUIPC installed. Please advise, thanks

[prepar3d & PFC.dll]

Will there be a similar PFC.DLL that is for FSX be available for prepar3d?

[Can't release brakes and brake message]

Thank you I have resolved the problem. For both FS9 and FSX I use aPrecision flight control Cirruss and no other “joysticks” when I was looking around it seems that somehow I have an added USB Joystick and this what was causing my issues.

[Can't release brakes and brake message]

Thank you, I tried as suggested, when I apply the brakes the "diiferential brakes" flash, but the brakes remain engaged as well as the parking brake.

[Can't release brakes and brake message]

I can't release the brakes via the key board (using the period key) I am sure I have done something as this problem exist in bot FS9 and FSX. I have a Precision flight control Cirruss model with brake pedals. Thanks for any suggestions

[two GPS external units?]

Is there a way to use two GPS units? I have an older Garmin GPSIII and a new Lowrance 2000c. would like to use both. Currently I run one or the other over Widefs, but would like to use both. Thanks for any input

[Garmin GPS III Pilot and FSX]

You can only use this GPS in the aviation in mode:

Set the GPSout.ini to read

[GPSout]

Sentences=AV400.

interval=1500

Port=com4

Speed=9600

[Lowrance airmap 200c]

Hi, FS9 is where the problem is, very starnge it worked once, but now only registers zero (0).

Thank you

[Lowrance airmap 200c]

I am having trouble with the unit reading the ALT, I have set the date to read this, but it flases zero (0). any suggestions of what I may be doing wrong?

Thank you

[Lowrance airmap 200c]

Thanks, used your data with great success. By the way it also works with FSX, as long as the unit is set to 4,800 baud.

Happy flying! :D

[Lowrance airmap 200c]

In FS9 what are the settings you use? I run both FS9 and FSX. Does your GPS use a serial connection or usb?

Thank you again for all of your input and help!

[Lowrance airmap 200c]

Thanks for the info, do you know what settings I would select from the GPS out section of FSX?

thank you :D

[Lowrance airmap 200c]

Thank you, I will give it a try and advise back

[Lowrance airmap 200c]

Please advise has anyone used this real GPS with FSX? If so what are the settings using NMEA- multiplexer with a USB connection.

Thanks

[Can't make WideFS work after computer meltdown]

Hi,

I had a major meltdown (power outage) which required a complete reinstall of all of Windows XP professional as well as all of my flight programs.

After I reinstalled all of the programs I can’t get WideFS to work. Before the meltdown everything worked great. All machines run Windows XP professional. I used WideFS mostly for Squawkbox

I can see, open and modify all of the computers on my network but no WideFS.

I have the latest release of FSUIPC and WideFS.

WideFS 6.70

FSUIPC 3.70

Appreciate any help or suggestions you may have.

[Garmin GPS III pilot. Can this be done using USB.]

Thanks for the reply, will I need to reconfigure my PFC or will it work like "plug and Play"??

Thank you again!!

[Garmin GPS III pilot. Can this be done using USB.]

I have a Precision flight controls model Cirrus. I am running FS9. I would like to add my Garmin GPS III pilot. Can this be done using USB. My serial port is being used by the Cirrus. I have downloaded the latest GPS Scout.

Thanks in advance for any help!
