Hello Pete, today I was able to re-produce at least a part of the error discussed in this topic. I got some errors like this one in my fsuipc.log: 11268514 **** No SimConnect events or states being received! Re-connecting now**** 11268998 SimConnect_Open succeeded: waiting to check version okay 11269029 Running in "Microsoft Flight Simulator X", Version: 10.0.61472.0 (SimConnect: 10.0.61259.0) 11269029 Initialising SimConnect data requests now 11269029 FSUIPC Menu entry added As promised, I also recorded a log for simconnect which has a size of 1.78 GB. I don't know, but maybe you could help me on this topic and tell me how I should extract the data for a more convenient handling for you, as even zipping it makes still several hundred MB. Another point maybe of some interest for you is that I also encoutered the "PMDG 747-400 trouble with turbulence with 4.28" problem during logging. Best regards, Martin

Hello Pete, that's my SimConnect.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?> SimConnect SimConnect.xml False False IPv4 global myserveraddress 64 500 4096 False False Auto local Anything you could suggest? I just tried to reproduce the error, but no luck. I will just let the logging run with my next flights, althought the logs are really huge. Martin

Hi Pete, thanks for your feedback and fast support. About the "reconnect message", i thought that these messages were collected over a big portion of flights and it would be normal once in a while to lose the connection. Sorry, for that. Anyway, I think everything points into the SimConnect direction right now. Just now I am trying to reproduce the very same error with the SimConnect log activated. Thanks for your help, and I'll let you knowalso about the Simconnect.xml. Best regards, Martin

Hello Pete, I am not sure if, but there could be a problem with FSUIPC 4.28 or a problem with FSUIPC in connection with Active Sky X, Fs2Crew, FSInn or PMDG 747-400X. I will just try to give you all the facts that might help debugging the probable issue. For the second time my joystick controls in FSX started not to work out of nowhere. The first time, I was already flying for around 10 hours from KIAD to EDDF. The flight went well without any technical problems. Today, I was doing my prechecks, FMC programming in EDDF for another flight into the US when FSX stopped accepting any control inputs from my joysticks while still beeing on the gate. Till now, sounds not like a FSUIPC related problem. Actually, the last time and this time I had a look at the FS menu and could see that the menu entry of FSUIPC was not where it has been when I started the flight. The whole menu entry was just missing. Therefore, I guess it could be connected to FSUIPC. I had a look at the log, but couldn't find anything that would show me any error. Another thing that I was wondering about, is that during standing at the gate, the PMDG 747X load manager could not connect via SimConnect to FSX to alter the load. Also, when control inputs stopped working in FSX, a small Fs2Crew window could not be clicked or closed anymore (I guess it's working through FSUIPC). Ok, I grabbed my Process Explorer and wanted to see, if for any reason the FSUIPC.dll that FSX loads might show anything unnormal. I have made some screenshots to illustrate the issue. First screenshot shows the missing FSUIPC entry, second and third one show the thread list of FSX. I will also include the FSUIPC logs for you. Maybe I should add that I am running Vista x64 after some OOM errors on 32 bit systems over the last months. Best regards, Martin
