I have found the mistake (or better to say - it works now) :-) Good for the tree hahaha Have a nice day...

Good Morning, Sir... after I have written about the need of updating FSUIPC/ WideFS I did it this morning before I want start to a long haul flight - but it is like every morning when I have a day off and I want to fly - technical issues prevent me from flying :-) I have installed the new FSUIPC version - I have registered both (FSUIPC is tagged as a registered version in the FS) I have copied the two WideServer - files (.dll and .ini) into the modules foider... But there is no connection between them. Here are the WideFS Log file ********* WideServer.DLL Log [version 6.995] ********* Blocksize guide = 4096 (double allowed) Date (dmy): 06/05/13, Time 09:17:00.546: Server name is EINSTEIN 23907 Initialising TCP/IP server 23922 Initialising IPX/SPX server 23922 IPX/SPX socket() failed [Error=10047] Address family not supported by protocol family 23922 Failed to start IPX/SPX Server 23922 Initialising UDP/IP server 24047 Broadcasting service every 1000 mSecs 35016 Restarting service due to total lack of use 35016 Failed to start IPX/SPX Server 158750 Closing down now ...

In the meantime I will go to chop a hazelnut tree to calm down a little :-) Kind regards Oliver

Oh my god - have you ever seen such an idiot like me????? For thos who can read it is no problem - but for me.... it's such a shame.... I have found the error - as you have written I forgot to copy the two files into the modules folder..... Well I have installed this machine more than once, but I have never made a mistake like that..... I'm getting older.... Thanks for help. It works very well.... Ich aknn wieder fliegen Juchu....:-) Oliver

Hello Pete, I don't know, but I don't have such a file neither in my current folder nor in my former folder (I've made a copy of the complete former folder) I have just unzipped the downloaded and just copied into my Harddrive.... Now I don't know, what to do. What do you mean with "The server isn't installed"? Are you talking about the FSUIPC Software? I have installed it yesterday... May you can give a little hint to me... Thanks Oliver

Hello, thanks for your quick response... There is just a file called Wide Server with the following content: ; PLEASE SEE the documentation for parameter details ; ================================================== [Config] Port=8002 ; ----------------------------------------------- [user] Log=Errors+ ; =============================================== But there is no text file called WideServer I have checked the IP's yesterday and they are correct. My FlightSuim PC has the 192.168.178.24 and the machine with the WideFS on it has the number 192.168.178.23 The current wideclient.ini iks as follows: ; PLEASE SEE WideFS documentation for parameter details ; ===================================================== [Config] Port=8002 Servername=Einstein Protocol=TCP Window=-8,-8,1280,786 Visible=Yes ButtonScanInterval=20 ClassInstance=0 NetworkTiming=5,1 MailslotTiming=2000,1000 PollInterval=2000 Port2=9002 ResponseTime=18 ApplicationDelay=0 TCPcoalesce=No WaitForNewData=500 MaxSendQ=100 OnMaxSendQ=Log NewSendScanTime=50 Priority=3,1,2 ; ----------------------------------------------- [user] Log=Errors+ ;KeySend1=123,16;Press F12 ;KeySend2=123,24;Release F12 ;UseSendinput=yes Log=Keys ButtonScreen=Yes ; =============================================== [sounds] Path=D:\WideFS\Sound\ Device1=Primärer Soundtreiber Device2=Lautsprecher (8- Logitech Z205 ) Device3=Lautsprecher (Realtek HD Audio (With EDS)) [buttonScreen] Size=4,5 0=T"Pause" 1=T"Slew" 2=B"Clear\rWeather" 3=B"Toggle\rTraffic" 4=B"Refresh\rScenery" 5=Ba"ESCape" 6=Bt"Cursor\rUp" 7=Ba"Home" 8=B"Reload\rAircraft" 9=Bl"Cursor\rLeft" 10=B"Stop/Clr\r(Num 5)" 11=Br"Cursor\rRight" 12=B"Restart\rFlight" 13=Ba"ALT\r(to get to\rFS menus)" 14=Bb"Cursor\rDown" 15=Ba"End" 16=B"Return" 17=B"Space\rBar" Which Parameter has to add after the ServerIPAddr Sorry for asking these stupid questions, I'm not a great expert in network things ;-) Kind Regards Oliver

Good moring. first I want to apologize for coming up with such a problem on a sunday whre time is better spend with the familiy. After a complete FS2004 Reinstallation I have the same problem described above. I'm trying to connect one XP32 Home PC (FS2004) wit a Laptop (Vista). It has worked until the reinstallation properly. During the Reinstall I have updated the FSUIPC Version to 3.999z and the WideFS to 6.991. Here are the Logs Wide Client ********* WideClient Log [version 6.991] Class=FS98MAIN ********* Date (dmy): 03/03/13, Time 09:05:33.938: Client name is EINSTEINJUNIOR 562 LUA: "D:\WideFS\Initial.LUA": not found 577 Attempting to connect now 593 Trying TCP/IP host "Einstein" port 8002 ... 593 ...

Kind regards, Oliver

No problem - I will let you know, how it works. Have a nice holiday and enjoy your time... Thanks Oliver PS: I have asked in the VA Forum I fly for and they told me, that SB3 is for the FS9 only, but FS4 is for FSY and for FS9... So SB4 works with the WideFS and I will try to find out, what happen wrong on my machine... A nice holiday Oliver

When I look at the "About"-Screen, I see the following.... http://i1216.photobucket.com/albums/dd372/MarcoLiverpool/SQAbout.jpg

Hello, sorry for the screenshot. I allways believe that a picture says more than thousand words - even if 'writer' isn't a native speaker. But back to the topic... My Squawkbox Version seems to be the latest version - it is version 4.x... I don't know, if there is an error with my SQbox Installation - it works very well so I think, the installation is ok... And the link via WideFS works too. The Squawkbox displays a little gauge on the simulator with some indicators to indicate if there is a receiving/ sending transmission... But I don't know how to see, if they are running on the same priority level (to be honset - I don't know, what that really means) No I don't. I will give it a try and let you know, what happen....

Hello, all four lines above are deleted, after that I treid it once again. Without sucess.... Look at the screenshot.... Thanks Oliver http://i1216.photobucket.com/albums/dd372/MarcoLiverpool/Default%20Forum%20Pictures/-2012-oct-10-001.jpg

Hi Peter, it's me again :-) I have updated both FSUIPC and WidFS and I will up to date now. But it doesn't work. The following is the content of my FSUIPC.INI I hope that helps. Thanks for help Oliver

Yes, you are right. There are some missing information. I'm using FS2004, my FSUIPC Version is 3.93 and my WideFS is 6.8.6.0 I try to describe, what I have done and my you can see, what I make wrong. First I start FS2004 and open the FSUIPC Dialog/ Buttons and Switches. I pressed the button from my joystick and FSUIPC recognizes the pressed button. Then I select the following options: Check 'Select for FS Control' choose PTT Transmit on Choose transmit off uncheck 'control to repeat while held' Then I finished by pressing OK On the client side I haven't changed anything, nor in the WideFS.ini or any other. In my SB3 there is a button allocated to the PTT Function (right control). By pressing these button I can make sure, that ATC will hear me. While pressing the defined button on the joystick, no mic will open.... Any idea to fix the problem? Thanks Oliver

Hello, I try to put the PTT button of the SQB3 onto my joystick button. I have seen, that there where a option under the Button Folder in FSUIPC. I do the following: Open dialog button and switches Press button, that will become the PTT button Check Select for FS Control Choose PTT on (I don't know the entry) in the upper dropbox Choose PTT off in the lower dropbox Check Control send when button released The Parameter fields remain empty I'm not sure, if I have to define a special PTT button on the client machine at the SQB itself (there is actually the right CTRL - Key defined, because I'm using the clients keypad for open microphone) or if the Joystick Button must be defined with a key, that will be send to the client machine and lead to the opening of the microphone. I have read several description about this problem, but there is a FSUIPC Function used, that is called Keysend 1-255 Thanks for help. Oliver

Yes, but it it's just missing, when using the FS Cargo. Without the FS Cargo everthing ist doing well... It give incorrect figures. During a flight at 15000ft, it will show minus 355 for example I will try to do it as explained. But I cannot send it to the FlightKeepers Supporter. They don't support the Version 2.8 anymore...:-( See you then. Oliver

Good morning Pete, here is the log file... I cannot say, if there is an error shown - But I have tried it with a former version of FSUIPC (3.7) and then it works very fine. I dont know, if thats an indikator for the reason of the problem. What do you think? Can you tell me, if the FSUIPC 3.7 works together with the WIDEFS 6.7.8??? Oliver
