  2. FSUIPC files on external drive

    in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    I was able to locate and modify the reference to FSUIPC4.dll in the DLL.xml file, and moved all the pertinent FSUIPC files in the Modules folder to another location.  However, when running FSX, I get the following error message when accessing the FSUIPC menu:

     

    "The FSUIPC4.DLL code signature does not verify!  Please check that the Cryptographic Services are running, or try applying the supplied GLobalSign Root fix.  You'll then need to restart FS."

     

    Any hint as to what I need to do to solve this?  My goal is to be able to plug in FSUIPC on a machine with flight simulator installed, and get it to work by simply altering the path in the DLL.xml file.

     

    Thanks again

  5. FSUIPC files on external drive

    Hi Pete,

     

    Hope everything is well.  I am working on a solution for a customer, and we have a question regarding FSUIPC.

     
    Can FSUIPC run "remotely", in other words, could I simply have the required FSUIPC files on an external location (i.e. a thumbdrive or similar) without having to alter the Flight Simulator (ESP, Prepar3D, etc.) installation (i.e. without placing any files on the FS installation folder)?
     
    The answer is probably not, but there a number of reasons for which this is a concern for the application at hand, and wanted to know if this is feasible or if it could be done some way.
     
    Thanks,

  8. Multiple WideServer Sessions connected to one WideClient

    in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules

    Posted

    Yes Peter, my original question was about multiple simultaneous connections, and I understood your reply.

    Since I am trying to avoid the nuissance of reprogramming the inerface to FSUIPC, and SEQUENTIAL connections COULD be the answer, I was trying to get your thoughts on this approach.

    I understand that by changing the ServerIP in the WideClient session, I would be able to interface to the FSX session of choice in each case.

    Thanks for your help.

  9. Multiple WideServer Sessions connected to one WideClient

    Hi again,

    I did understand your reply, just trying to find a workaround to reprogramming the interface to FSUIPC.

    The only other way I can think about communicating to different WideServer computers would be to try to do so sequentially, that is:

    Starting situation:

    3 FSX copmuters with WideServer running. Configured to connect to the same WideClient computer (IP address).

    1 PC connected to the network to remotely access to each computer.

    All computers connected to the same network.

    Sequence:

    1. Start WideClient in the remote computer, with the ServerIP address in the .ini file set to FSX computer #1.

    2. Communicate with FSUIPC.

    3. Close that WideClient session.

    4. Start a new WideClient session with the ServerIP address in the .ini file set to FSX computer #2.

    5. Communicate with FSUIPC.

    6. Close that WideClient session.

    7. And so on...

    Would this work with the correct IP settings at each end?

    Thanks,

    Luis

  10. Multiple WideServer Sessions connected to one WideClient

    in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules

    Thanks for your reply. It is clear that to establish unambiguous "two-way" connections between one WideClient and multiple WideServer connections, that would be the way to go.

    I have one last question: Would an FSUIPC write command sent from the WideClient session be received at all the WideServer sessions and be followed? I know the WideClient session would be randomly receiving information from one or another WideServer instance, but would such a "broadcast" over the network be received by all WideServer instances? I know communication the other way around would be ambiguous.

    Thanks again for your help,

    Luis

  12. Multiple WideServer Sessions connected to one WideClient

    Pete,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I don't know if I explained myself clearly. The situation would be the following:

    1 computer running WideClient

    10 computers running WideServer (FS running in each of those computers)

    What I am trying to do is to send signals to FSUIPC on each computer from that single WideClient session.

    So you are saying I would need to have several WideClient windows open in the PC where my program runs, each of them communicating with a specific WideServer session on each of the 10 computers?

    Thanks,

    Luis

    Peter,

    I have a question regarding WideFS. I need to know if I can connect a computer running WideClient to several computers running WideServer.

    The reason to do this is to have a set of computers running FS2004 and changing a setting to all of them at the same time (ie. WXR conditions, position, etc.). Of course it only maes sense with this idea in mind, communication in the other direction makes no sense. This would be useful for training sessions in multiple computers at the same time, for example.

    This implies having a program running on a computer communicating with FSUIPC sessions in several other computers via WideClient-WideServer communications.

    Would this be possible? What settings would be needed (network)?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

  18. MakeRunways 4.29 with Instructor Station

    in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules

    Posted

    Peter,

    I intend to use the data files generated by "MakeRunways 4.29" with my Instructor Station (http://luisgordo.googlepages.com/instructorstation). This way aricraft can be positioned on runway of choice.

    Can I distribute the "MakeRunways" executable with my package? I would anyhow refer users to your download page to get the latest version.

    Thanks in advance for your reply.

    Regards,

  20. Help for retrieving FSUIPC version

    in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules

    Posted

    Hi there,

    I would appreciate some help for retrieving the FSUIPC version. I am using .NET. Per th documentation, the FSUIPC version is in offset 3304 (length 4).

    I am reading with a "Long" type variable in .NET, but from there, I do not know how to retrieve the FSUIPC number. How can I convert the contents of the HIWORD to get the version number? I read the number would have to be divided by 1000, but this doesn't give 3.75 (which is the version I am using).

    I have also tried reading at 3306 with a "Short" type variable, but still I do not know how to convert what I read.

    Any insight on this? Thanks!

    Luis
