Hello Pete Sorry, can not get working the weather interface. I'm sure that basically my VB6 code is correct as well the variables or variable arrays. Just confused how the process really is, need towrite what there ? Need to read something where ??? What I want to do is globally change weather with a metar string. With this we can fly alltime in weather conditions we wanted ? Everything else works so nicelly ! Peter www.airforcecenter.ch, select English and see under simulators ...

Pete Yes, can confirm: if I write into &H1400 + (offset &H30 per payload station) the weights, the CG in &H2EF8 changes. On my aircraft depending on 4 freight stations from 15 to 31% as described in the offset list. The fuel qty does not so influence the CG as they are quite close arranged around the CG. The last part: Should move it to the other thread: http://forum.simflight.com/topic/78022-reading-metar-in-fsx/?hl=metar I can not get the weather working ... Sorry for confusion Peter

Dear Pete When you write during a flight into the aircraft.cfg and you relaod the aircraft payload should be updated with new values in &H13FC + &H1400 etc. Anyway it does update weigths when you write values into the stations buffer. For me works perfectly, but I use only one aircraft. I use buffers in VB6 to put the values from FSUIPC. Then just handle the aircraft.cfg as an INI file to write down. I can't get work weather and sounds ..., see my separate post "METAR" Peter

Dear Lukas All NavData you can get for your own use from Navigraph for not so much money (FMS Data, single download). The version vor SIm-Avionics is in a handy selfexplaining access MDB, you can simply readuot with DAO, ADO in VB.NET or with MS Access. You can put together easy with SQL statements result from makerwy with ILS and Freq. Peter

Dear Pete Dear All I'm really sorry to just overfly after some messages the topic. I was a publisher for FS as well. We stopped because of these discussions. And so far, I do not know anybody becoming really rich selling FS-addons. Pete, your piece of software does allow thousands of simmers to have even more fun then with the low priced basic programm. Congratulations ! Stop arguing, the never will understand your points, and please don't stop because of such threads... Where the hell went any manners and respect these days ? Why it is smart today to try pay nothing for somebody else's labour ? And what is so trendy by hitting some keystrokes from far away and shit on somebody ? Appreciation of others and others efforts ... I'm wondering that not a selfie is attached ... 20 CD for a hobby, come on, please ! Best regards Peter

Hello Pete Trying to use VB6 :razz: for my applications. &H13FC, &H1400 Payload section The Payload section does run as described. I can change the Weights and names off stations. FSX does adopt all relevant weights accordingly. I have not verified yet other International configurations then my mixed US / metric. Kilogramms with conversion to/from lbs works fine. NWI Need to develop, see below reply to Joe. Anyway, Thanks for your tremendous piece of work ! Best regards Peter Kruesi

Hello Joe I'm trying to do the same as you, in old fashioned VB6 ... Had you success ? Sofar I understand several steps are required: 1. Translate NewWeather.h into VB6 declarations 2. Write ICAO or special codes GLOB ,????, <??> to &HB808. As VarPtr put the Variable defined Dim TmpString as string * 2000 3. Write same with same FSUIPC_Process a command into &HB800 Not sure yet what is for READ only 4. You get the a METAR String back Theory so far. Regards Peter Kruesi

Dear Pete We switched off all addon-sceneries and moved away all ai-traffic. In the dll.xml we load anly FSUIPC4.DLL: Crash @ Laoding approx 86% in Terrain.dll In the dll.xml we do not load FSUIPC4.DLL: Crash @ Laoding approx 86% in Terrain.dll We did changed nothing before troubles, only installed FSUIPV4 v4.90 over 4.86. We are more than confused ... With best regards Peter

Dear Pete We could not find yet the cause that FSX does not run anymore. Installe v4.86, either listed in DLL.xml or not, FSX does not load anymore. The certificate ssems to be OK. Kaspersky tells it's OK. FSUIPC was always running without issues ?! Peter

Dear Pete Dear All I'm using Win7, 32-bit, FSX SP2 Accel since many years. I noticed the required new download and performed it yesterday. Since then FSX does not run anymore. It loads - sometimes misses message "Finishing Setup ..." before "Rebuild scenery database...". Then it seems to load DLL's and stops. Either with or without FSUIPC activated. Tried to go back to v4.89 but no success at all. FSX does not run anymore. Any help appreciated Best regards Peter
