  1. Hello Pete, Welcome back. I can see you are busy answering many questions. I use ProSim737 (and highly recomend it), FS9, five PCs with various PFD/ND/ENG displays, hardware (SIOC, IOcards, WideClient), instructor station etc. I use one of the PC's sound output (on the ENG/SYS computer) for ProSim Audio (warnings/traffic) through two speakers above the pilots heads. This works great. But - If I run the RAAS on the same separate computer (having copied the output of MakeRunways r4.csv to it [and with Wideclient running]) RAAS does not make any sound but ProSim audio continues nicely. I have tried disabling Prosim Audio first and re-running but RASS remains silent throughout any flight. However, RAAS does report back to FS9 from the second computer with a text report at the end of the flight? I'll keep trying to contact the RAAS author. Cheers, Aussie123
  2. Hello Pete, I know you are away but I thought I had better update you after testing the new MakeRunways 4.62 on the weekend. It worked great: Found all of the runways and created the files with all the Aussie runways correctly positioned. Very odd as to why the file locations are listed in the "Remote" field. I was thinking, maybe it had something to do with caching? I have all of the scenery I use ticked as "cache". Following this line of thinking, I was trying to see where else in the Scenery.cfg how it knew that it had to use the cache and not reload it each time. Maybe by moving and parking the address into "remote" it could recover the address if you then un-ticked "cache" at a later date? Just a thought. Anyhow, the Runway Awareness and Advisory System (RAAS) is now working on the Main PC when I run it. (I now have to chase up with the author why it will not play the voices when it is run on a separate PC, using WideFS. It shows it is connected to FS using FSUIPC, updates runways and sends back an onscreen text landing report, to the Main PC at the end of the flight, but will not play the call outs during taxi etc?) Thanks again. Aussie123
  3. Thanks Pete, I'll do a bit more research before writing back. All of the Australian scenery and various addin Australian city airport scenery was installed by VOZ installer a year or so back. I guess I had to activate each of them by pointing down to the appropriate Add In scenery sub folder. Can't remember. I have never had to look in the Scenery.cfg file before. It just worked. The actual scenery is located in the FS9 tree and not on another PC. I'll get back to you. I might snip out part of the .cfg next time. Have a good time while you are away. Aussie123
  4. Hello Pete, I got time to check your suggestions down the shed last night: I'm using Make Runways V4.614 I went into the root of FS9 and removed a couple of older Scenery_old.cfg files so that there was only one file in the directory. There are 45 Layer/Areas in the file. About half of the first 37 stock sceneries are not active (Active=False) with "Remote=" scenery files from Area/Layer 38 to 45 I ran the program again and the same result: Total Airports=2080 Runways=4837 Same size file. Looking at the Runways.txt file, the process sems to only go down to Layer 37. No mention of Layer 38 to 45? An example of the remote entry in the Screnery.cfg is "Remote= C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Addon Scenery\Voz AF2" REQUIRED=FALSE, ACTIVE=TRUE Aussie123
  5. Hello Peter, Like many others I'm contantly adding programs to my ProSim737 / FS9 / SIOC / FSUIPC cockpit. I have recently added the Runway Awareness and Advisory System (RAAS) that communicates through FSUIPC. I downloaded MakeRwys, parked in the FS9 root directory, and it ran as advertised. It made all the files. I then copied the r4.csv into the RASS V2 directory. On running it, and FS9/FSUIPC, I found that I couldn't get it to do anything. On looking into the r4.csv their seemed to be thousands of runways but only about 4 from Australa. I then checked the Secenery.cfg file. All of my add in scenery is in there (VOZ etc) in their correct sub directories. Any idea why Make Runways is not picking up the add in scenery?.
