Hi Pete, Thanks for solving my problem! I was so sure that I was running P3Dv4.1. Now I check to find it is still v4.0. Apologies for bothering you, Regards, Richard

Hi Pete, I appear to be having the same problem. I am installing FSUIPC5 (unregistered) to support TOPS Takeoff Performance System v1.2.0 use with my PMDG 777-300ER. Maybe my description of the problem will help both myself and Julian. I have installed FSUIPC5.122 under P3D4.1 but now, when starting Win10 Pro, at the screen to enter my Win10 PIN, I receive the window "P3D requires a minimum display resolution of 1024x720. Would you like to change your display resolution? Yes/No". I am using a 4k screen with resolution 3840x2160. On answering Yes, I receive the P3D splash and a Desktop Icon Settings window. On answering Yes to this, the settings window disappears but so too does the P3D splash and P3D ends. If I rename FSUIPC5.DLL and restart, P3D loads without a problem. Restoring the name FSUIPC5.DLL again returns to the same problem. FSUIPC5 was run as Administrator, both the .INI and .LOG files are present, and the security tab of the Modules folder shows Full Control and Modify ticked for Everyone. I have attached the FSUIPC5.LOG file of the installation. Can you help me solve this problem, please? Many thanks FSUIPC5 Install.log

Hi Peter, All now working. Many thanks.

When I run Makerwys 4.801 with the lorbi-si program installed I receive the messages: Failed to make all of the data files! Failed to make FStarRC RWS file! Total airports = 0, runways = 0 What am I doing wrong?

Hi Nik, Currently TOPER only displays the V speeds once the Calculate button is pressed. It would be perhaps more attractive if it could calculate the V speeds in real time as the user alters any of the factors - temperature, take off weight, dry/wet, wind and QNH. Even some sort of graphic representation of the factors. Just a thought for future developments. Regards, Richard

I have been a licensed user of FSUIPC 'since the world began' - so long, in fact, that I have completely forgotten why I have it! The Schiratti site does not give any definition for its role other than as an interprocess communication tool. As I intend to use only P3Dv4 and PMDG777, plus many airport sceneries, is there any need for me to license the new FSUIPC when available?

Hi! Would you add a description of what this utility does, please? Ta!

Hi Thomas, Many thanks for your reply. I now feel that my problem is stemming from a PC overheat. Many thanks, Richard

Hi Pete, I am getting reproducible PC hard stops when running PMDG 777-300ER under P3Dv3.3.5 under the latest Windows 10 with FSUIPC 4.955. I have had these problems for a number of months. The freezes require a re-boot of the PC to recover. A freeze the Monitor IPC:024C(U32) reads around 1.2 gb, so apparently no shortage of VAS. I am suspecting the problem lies with FSUIPC because I have autosave set at 900 seconds and the freeze appears to occur coincidentally. Do you know of any reason why the problem may lie with FSUIPC? Any help will be much appreciated. Kind regards, Richard McDonald Woods

Pete, I have now flown my first online flight, ESSA-EGLL, in many months. Worked perfectly with Autosave off. So it appears to be the culprit. Can you confirm? Cheers, R

Hi Pete, I have been suffering from Squawkbox 4 frequent disconnects for years. The disconnects occur every few minutes which have made my online experiences impractical. I have had the autosave frequency set to 300 seconds. I have had all sorts of minds try to find the reasons for the disconnects. My next theory as to why I get these disconnects has led me to think that maybe FSUIPC 4.90 might be the culprit. So this morning I have unchecked 'Check to enable Autosave', deleted all of my Autosave files, and left FSX/PMDG 777X running for over 1 hour without a disconnect. Do you believe that the Autosave function could have caused the SB4 disconnects? As I only use PMDG 777X, should I update FSUIPC 4 to the latest release? Any help will be much appreciated.
