Can someone tell me if there might be an easy way of using fsuipc to prevent FS9 from automatically restarting the session after a crash, and actually leave the crashed plane where it happens to be?
The objective is to be able to have options such as analyzing the session before it disappears. It would be nice to be able to use the replay option, flight analysis and other features before cancelling the session. It would even be nice to have other multiplayer pilots be able to do a fly-by and see where the plane fell.
There are a number of other reasons I could itemize, but hopefully you get the gist.
Thanks in advance for anyone that has any suggestion.
By the way, if someone has influence with the developers of FSX, (as I’ve mentioned in the past) maybe you can pass this suggestion to them.

There might be a number of ways. For one, you can use a video card with a composite out, then output the composite to a VCR. You can go from your VCR to your composite monitor. Then just record. You can now use the standard capture method to capture the recording you made and edit it with your favorite video editing program.

Thanks for the response. I figured it might have been something like that.
The reason I was wanting you on the list was because I had lost the IP address. It had been setup in my FS config, which I had changed while doing other programming. It took me a while to find you again. I was thinking the list would make it easier. However, it easy now because I see the support group site.
I guess the name sake of the program could have the potential for attracting an adverse element (spy incorporated in the name of the program). Actually because of the name of the program, I almost didn't download it. I did because it was on the same site as the developer of fshost.
You have a great group there. Everyone I met on line was friendly and patient with my newness of a multiplayer environment.
I originally learned of your server by reading the messages in the beginners forum on this board. I read all the new beginners messages (to get a grip on things, and avoid asked questions that might already have been answered).
I'm progressing on to being able to follow the other forums (such as this one).
By the way, I noticed, last night, there was a flight plan on the server. How do you download (or for that matter submit) the flight plans.
Thanks again for the availability.

Hi, Terry. You have a great fshost server. I especially like the kneeboard status feature.
Just curious. Your host doesn't show up on the fshostspy program. Is there a reason that it's not listed?

Programing FSUIPC to prevent FS9's restart after crash?

You're modest, Pete. The things you’ve done with FSUIPC are amazing.
Thanks for the information and suggestions.
I have been asking this question in various forums for two years. I also included a very descriptive suggestion on this matter in the questionnaire that Microsoft gave some months ago. Hopefully they will take notice.
I also asked the developers of FSInn/FSCoPilot to add the feature to their application. Benjamin said he’d consider it.
By the way, look at my open letter to Microsoft. I sent this to them also.

Take notice of the last paragraph (cartoon).
If you have some influence with some of FSX’s developers, try to nudge them into this direction, or try to find out how that have decided to approach this function in their new version. Maybe they have already realized the mistake and brought back what you said was in the previous versions.
