Good evening,
I have a homecockpit. 6 PC's are connectet. This evening I have updated FSUIPC, WideServer, and on all client PC's WideClient. I'm running all Client PC's with the PM StartUp tool. On 4 of my 5 Client PC's everything is working OK. But on one, which is running the Engine, I now get an Benchmark Test and the PC dosn't connect to the server. Any idea?
Thank you and
Best Regards

I was to loud. Only the first 3-4 minutes the frames are stable. After that, the same game :?

Problem solved :D
You want to know the solution? You can hit me, if you want :wink:
As I have told, I'm using O&O Defrag for my FS PC. For all other PC's I'm using the onbord microsoft defrag (wich is more a plecebo, I know). After using O&O Defrag for the PC where I'm runing the CDU, pmSystems and so on, everything is working fine now. Can't belive it. Sometimes solutions are so near...

But both, pmGetWeather and SA_WXR dosen't make any trouble.
Have you tried with both of them not running to see if you get the slow down effect on FS?
Yes, I have, but that's not the problem.
So, sorry, I can see nothing wrong at all in the operation of WideFS on your system. Assuming you find no difference when not running pmGetWeather and SA_WXR, then whatever is slowing FS is related somehow to what your CDU or pmSystems is asking of it. Maybe something conflicting with the aircraft you are using?Thank you for the hint. Have testet with differend aircraft, but all the same.
OK, thank you for your kind help Pete. Will going on to find the error.
Best regards

Sorry, have forgot to tell you. Yes I have tried process elimination. The CDU and the pmSystems are the "bad boys". All other is running fine.
Sorry, do you mean that without both CDU and pmSystems, all is well, but with either (or both?) it is not.
I have tried only with the CDU, only with pmSystems, with both and all other kombinations. The problem comes alive with one of them or with both together.
The system performance seems okay -- averaging 30 frames/sec at this client. I do find the maximum and average transmission rates quite high though77 and 33 respectively.What does that mean? And can I do something here?
Additionally you have two more Client applications on there than you mentioned: pmGetWeather and SA_WXR. I'm pretty sure they shouldn't both be used -- one or the other, surely? SA_WXR seems to be making a large number of requests itself. Strange. It seems quite quiet on my system (I'm using SA_WXR but not pmGetWeather). Try without both of those, see how it goes.Yes, I tend to forget things ;-) I'm using pmGetWeather for the ACARS function of the FMC. SA_WXR dosen't support that. But both, pmGetWeather and SA_WXR dosen't make any trouble.
Apart from WideFS activity, could it be some sort of disk access? Have you de-fragmented your main FS disk recently? Does the disk activity light come on a lot?Hm, I'm using the O&O Defrag tool. As far as I know, it is one of the best you can get. So I think that isn't the problem. Yes, the disk activity light comes on a lot.
Where do you have the CDU's common folder (NETDIR, I think?), which SA_WXR and pmGetWeather and other parts of PM access? It should be on the same PC as the CDU for efficiency. If it is on the FS PC it may well be affecting performance, especially with both pmGetWeather and SA_WXR competing to provide the bitmap for the ND, which isn't a trivial file in itself.NetDir is on the CDU PC
I have add LogFiles of a flight I have made this evening. Maybe you can find something...
Thank you again
Best Regards

First bof all, thank you for the quick answer, Pete. It's allways a plesure to communicate with you.
Have you tried a process of elimination -- having WideClient connecting on PC6 but with no applications running? If that "solves" it, try running the others (PM CDU, PM MCP, pmSystems) each on their own, see which is causing a problem.Sorry, have forgot to tell you. Yes I have tried process elimination. The CDU and the pmSystems are the "bad boys". All other is running fine.
Now I have upload the LOG files. I have delete the older once, to get new files. But I have attached both. When deleding the old LOG files, I have noticed that WideServer and WideClient have two files!?!? One is ending with a "0".
Yesterday, when trying to solve the problem, I have take a look from time to time into the Log files and have seen some errors. Today I can't see them :oops: but the problem is still there.
Thanxs a lot

Hello,
I have a problem with one of my network PC. I have conected 6 PC's:
1) FS9 / ActiveSky
2) PM Captian PFD
3) PM Engine / PM Sound
4) PM First Officer PFD
5) PM Lower Engine
6) PM CDU / PM MCP / PM pmSystems
All ist working fine, except PC 6 with PM CDU / PM MCP / PM pmSystems. After starting this PC, I will get framerate problems at my FS9 PC.
I have set the Framerate in FS9 to 27. After starting the 6) PC, the frames are going very fast up and down. From 27 to 26, back to 27, 15, 26, 25, 27, and so on. And that all in milliseconds. But after some minutes, it' going from 27 to 23, 26, 22, 27, 21. After an hour it goes from 27 to 14, 12, 26, 16. and so on.
I have read the documentation of WideServer and WideClient, have tried to play with the parameters, but no luck. Also I have tried to make changes in the network cart. Also no luck. Now I have no idea.
Maybe someone can help.
My configuration of PC 6):
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU
P8400 @ 2.26GHz
1.58GHz, 2.99GB RAM
Marvell Yukon 88E8055 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (latest driver)
WinXP on all network PC's
Thank you

Hello,
Thank you very much for your help. After deleting all the files of the data folder, AES and FsP is working now. Also the Airport info is working, but only if I have selected US format ( 1,000 ), befor starting the reinitialize process. In Europe format it dosn't work. Do you have an idea for that?
Best Regards

Hello,
yesterday I have purchased FSM. I have done all steps like described in the manual to get airport information. But no luck. Also the FsPassengers and AES function dosn't work (that was the main reason to purchase FSM). I'm using FSM on a network PC.
Any idea?
I'm using FSUIPC 3.930 and WideFS 6.700
Thank you and Best Regards

air-child VA ...
... ist nicht einfach nur eine weitere virtuelle airline, air-child VA bietet ein Sponsoring Programm zur Unterstützung des United Nations Children's Fund, UNICEF. Für jeden Flug der von einem Air-Child Pilot durchgeführt und reportet wird, spenden unsere Sponsoren Geld an UNICEF. Auf diesem Wege tragen unsere Piloten dazu bei, dass Kindern überall auf der Welt geholfen wird.
Nach 16 Monaten Aufbau ist zwar immer noch reichlich Arbeit zu tun, aber es stehen alle wichtigen Parts, die wir nun in einem Beta-Test prüfen wollen. Wenn Du ein erfahrener FS-Pilot bist, wirst Du die Möglichkeiten die Air-Child bietet mögen: Du hast die Wahl zwischen mehr als tausend Linienflügen weltweit. Im Briefingraum bekommst Du einen detaillierten company flightplan, Fuel und Weights Calculation, basierend auf Deinem Flugzeugtyp, Payload, Flugroute etc. Drucke Deinen Plan und lade Dir den dazugehörigen FS-Flightplan für FSX/FS2004 herunter. Du möchtest Online fliegen? Mit einem klick wird der Flugplan für Dein Netzwerk automatisch ausgefüllt.
Aber Air-Child bietet noch mehr. Z.B. verschiedene PIREP Systeme (FS Flight Keeper, FsPassengers, FSAcars), live flight tracking, verschiedene Karieremöglichkeiten usw.
Um all diese Tools noch einmal einem Härtetest zu unterziehen, bevor es losgeht, suchen wir Dich! Werde Mitglied im Air-Child Beta-Team! http://www.air-child.com

Hello,
I'm building a homecockpit and have connected 5 PC's. All with Windows XP. Now I need a new PC where I'm running FS and WideServer. But all new machines have Vista. Can it be a problem, to connect a Vista PC with FS and WideServer together with the four XP PC's?
Thank you
Best regards

Hello Pete,
yes it works now, but only without the PMSystems. If I'm using PMSystems I have to klick on the Engine Start Levers on the screen to get the Engines to work. Do you know the solution?
Thank you
Norbert

Hello Pete,
Sounds like you have something else also assigned to the mixture levers. Check the assignments in FS.Yes, that solved the problem.
Many thanks and
Best Regards

Hello Thomas,
first also a big THANK YOU to you, for your work, like the PM air files for the PMDG.
Yes, I was looking for the "Idle / Cutoff". I have now assigned the Mixture-Axis 1 and 2 and it works, BUT only phisikaly. That means, I can move the levers.
Normaly I have moved the Lever at about 18% N2 from Cutoff to Idle. But after I have moved them now from Cutoff to Idle, some seconds later they moved by himself to Cutoff. So I never can start the engines now.
Do you have a nother idea for me?
Thank you
Norbert

Hello,
because this is my first post in this forum, I want to start with a big THANK YOU Pete, for your wonderfull FSUIPC and WideFS.
Here my question:
I'm using the CH Yoke, CH Pedals and the CH Throttle. Also I'm using the PM software. For the CH Throttle I have assigned one axis for the spoiler, two for the engine throttles and one for the Flaps. Now I want assign the two other axis for the Engine Start Levers. But I can't find it in the drop-down.
Am I blind or are they renamed, or isn't it possible to assign axis for the Engine Start Levers?
Best Regards
Norbert
IVAO Statistik
in FS MAGAZIN Forum
Posted
Hallo,
die Statistik bei IVAO ist tatsächlich etwas überraschend. Hab jetzt gerade mal bei uns nachgeschaut. Air-Child hat zur Zeit 423 aktive Piloten. Davon fliegen 310 den FSX, aber immerhin noch 113 den FS9. :cool:
