Hi Peter, the error on FSX is the same: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: fsx.exe Application Version: 10.0.61472.0 Application Timestamp: 475e17d3 Fault Module Name: FSUIPC4.dll Fault Module Version: 4.9.5.5 Fault Module Timestamp: 574e288e Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0001017a OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1040 Additional information about the problem: LCID: 1040 the only difference is that before to crash FSX is presenting before a message bow saying the flight simulator has found a problem with FSUIP and does reccomend to uninstall it, proceeding I get the crash. I have just installed the last P3D version, but nothins is changed. Attached the FSUIPC logs The last FSUIPC I can use without problem is the 4.9.4.8 BR Joe FSUIPC4.log FSUIPC4.log

Hi, I'm facing issues tryng to install the new version of FSUIPC. Both simulators crash at startup with the following message: roblem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: Prepar3D.exe Application Version: 3.1.2.15831 Application Timestamp: 5672b60a Fault Module Name: FSUIPC4.dll Fault Module Version: 4.9.5.5 Fault Module Timestamp: 574e288e Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 0001017a OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1040 Additional information about the problem: LCID: 1040 How could I solve the problem? Thanks and best regards Joe

Hi Pete, BINGO !!!! The new version (4.947c) did the trick: the offset (8600) is now set to 1 when ASN is running. I did not have the time to further test the WX radar, but I'm confident that now it will run fine and I'll let you know about that asap (now in a business trip) also with the DDL.XML file. Once more thanks a lot for your great and passionate support !!!!! Joe

Hi Pete, thanks a lot for your attention and support !!!! I'm out of home today, but I will send you the file asap and i'll do the test with the new release. KR Joe

Hi Pete, I sent to HIFISIM also the DLL's log, they say that no errors are there and everything seems fine: by the way the problem is still there. Thanks again for your help and support KR Joe

Hi Pete, also after the reinstallation the problem is still there. Really I do not know what to think now. Joe

Hi Pete, Welcome screen number is the same of the yours, ASN is set for FSX, I did not download the beta version. I will try to reinstall completely ASN and the as_btsrp.dll and I ll you know the result. Thanks again for your support Joe

Hi Pete, I sent the ASN log file to HIFISIM support and the feedback was that no errors are shown there Joe

Hi Pete, yes I'm trying your demo example. I put the row in FSUIPC.INI as the first in the [General] Section

Hi Peter, documentation is clear (only some doubts for me not being English my first language :razz: ) I have put: WXRADAR.LUA in Widefs directory WXRADAR.MCRO in FSX\Modules directory added row with ASNwxRadarBitmapPath=d:\FSX\Modules\WX.RADAR.BMP in FSUIPC.INI added row with Background=z:\FSX\Modules\WX.RADAR.BMP in Wideclient.ini (where z: is the networked drive for FSX) modified 1st row in WXRADAR.LUA with path="z:\\FSX\\MODULES\\WX.RADAR.BMP" but the WXRADAR.BMP file is not generated. Joe

Hi Pete, I have opened the ticket on HiFiSim and the result is that everything should be ok (no problems in the lof and I did a test with roland gauge that correctly runs). By the way the offset 8600 is always set to 0. Moreover I have a doubt with the radar instructions: the bitmap has to be generated by the user or is directly provided by ASN? Is there a specific location to have it generated or found? Thanks and kind regards Joe

Hi Pete, thanks for the answer: I have opened a ticket in the ASN support and I'll let you know the answer. KR Joe

Hi Peter, I just sent the DLL (renamed into TXT) to the mail address specified by you. Thanks for your support and Kind Regards Joe

Hi Peter, I was trying to test the ASN WX radar facility eplained in your documentation. I was not able to have it correctly running so I have red in the logging the offset 8600 that sholud be set to 1 if ASN is detected and running. I have found that even if ASN is running the offset is set to 0 and I think this is the reason of the issue. I'm running FSUIPC 4.945a and networked ASN SP3. Which could be the problem and how could I solve it? Thanks in advance and Kind regards Joe

Hi Pete, thanks a lot for the clear and fast explanation (as always). I'll try to modify all my developed LUAs to have only one (at least one for aircraft/profile) usung the 'event' as you suggest Kind Regards Joe

Hi Pete, reading this post some doubts raised to me and I would have your suggestion and point of view about them. I have created a very huge number of LUA files that reading offsets execute after specific actions when I use a keys sequence or I press buttons on my several FSX devices: in term of performances and resources usage do you think could be the case I try to put all of them together using the 'ipc.event' command or can I maintain them in the different LUA files? Thanks in advance and kind regards Joe

Hi, I think you could try creating a LUA with the commands ipc.writeLVar to set the variables you mention in your post. I will try too. At the moment I have solved the problem dinamically creating, after to have calculated the fuel needed for the flight I want to do, a LUA that automatically execute the sequence of commands that you should do to load the fuel through the FMC. Kind regards Joe

hHi Pete, thanks for the reply. Problem solved with LUA solution: the problem was related the parameter value of ipc control statement. I found the solution looking into the user contribution section. Thanks again and kind regards Joe

Hi, I have created a macro to try to automate some CDU actions, but that does not seem to run and in FSUIPC log I get the message "... not useful because it causes an exception". Other macros I have created for the same aircraft are good, only the one trying to manage the CDU is having issue. There is an explanation for that? Also using in a LUA the controls managing the CDU (listed in the PMDG SDK) seem to create problem: the first time you call the control to simulate for example the push of the button L1 (ipc.control (70166,1)) everything goes okay, but after if you simulate to push again the same button nothing happens. Any help will be really appreciated. Thanks and kind regards Joe

Hi, ignore the request.. I just discovered that unfortunately the issue is due to a failure in my rear speakers and subwoofer. Kind Regards Joe

Hi, since yesterday I'm facing a strange issue in my lua scripts: the ipc.sound statements doe not seem to run anymore and sounds are no more produced. Tried also installing the new 4.938, but nothing changed. Any idea on what could be happened? Thanks and kind regards Joe

Hi Pete, the problem here is that i use a routine like the one I attached for other ASCIIZ offsets (i.e. 3D00 or 3E00) with success, but in this case this does not seem to be correct. In FSInterrogate e looking af FSUIPC logs the offset content looks fine, so I think is really a problem related how the VB6 code is written. I hiope someone VB expert wll give a support. Thanks again Joe

Hi Pete, thanks for the reply. Do you mean that I could try to read directly the string not decoding the offset content byte for byte? Joe

Hi, I'm trying to read METAR at offset B800 through a VB application and using the usual way I use to read strings (in the attachment), but in this case I get only an empty string. Do you have suggestions respect what I am doing wrong helping me to solve the problem? Thanks in advance Joe metar.txt
