Hi, Peter. I'm sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. Only after I failed to find a file named "fsuipc.log" in the modules folder did I run the search. At the time there was only one file named fsuipc in that folder. That was the DLL. I deleted the registration by using that option on the registration form within fsuipc, as my first attempt to register after the re-install had failed. Thanks. -Chris

Thanks, Tom. Indeed, this thread had fulfilled its purpose even before I hit send on my last post. I appreciate the tip about the search utility. I rarely need to search within files and one of my biggest gripes about the Win7 search is that there seems to be no way to tell it not to do that. -Chris

HI, Pete. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. (edit later) - Never Mind. All good now... Hmmmm. No fsuipc.log file. Of course i forgot to start logging the first time i tried. Tried - starting logging, verifying the problem, and exiting FS. - starting logging, verifying the problem, stopping logging and exiting FS. but , if Win7's search can be trusted (and we know it can't), there is no fsuipc file anywhere on my drive :sad: I'll try deleting fsuipc and putting in a new one... D'oh! I'm sure i did this at least once already... maybe i just put a new copy into modules.... Ok, well, running "Install FSUIPC", deleting my old registration and re-registering: +===========================+ | | | Has Solved the Problem !!!! | | | +===========================+ Plan-G is connecting properly now, too. OK, Then. So glad you have more patience for idiots than i do. Thanks for showing me a way to test fsuipc. Awesome, i'm going to go install me some new guages! And maybe resume my work on my ATC robot now that i've learned that i can place and control (well, update) AI planes. No more simultaneous parallel approaches to the same runway!! Once again, Thank You. -Chris

The day before yesterday I tried out TrafficLook. Awesome! ( [totally irrelevant aside narrative:] I was flying between KBNA and KSBP in the CRJ-100 and a 737 went by a few FLs below me at an angle so I changed course to follow him. I was about to begin the process of pacing him through trial-and-error, and try to guess where he was going, when I thought of TrafficLook and Eureka! : His Alt GS Hdg and destination right there in front of me. He was heading to KSAN and, since I live there, I dropped my plans to go to San Luis Obispo and punched Direct-to-KSAN in the GPS and followed him home. [END OF T.I.A.N] ) I was so impressed I registered my FSUIPC and went looking for a good TCAS guage. I failed to get a working TCAS and somewhere in the process TrafficLook stopped working. Here is what I see: (regardless of where my plane is) slot |ID |State|Rwy|From|To|COM1 | |User | | | | |100.2| ... Brg|Dist|Hdg|Alt |AltDiff|GS|VS|Ref|Lat |Long | |359|7559| |0 |2 | |N00 00.0000|E000 00.0000 2 Re-installs of FS2004 have not fixed this problem (first one I forgot to delete the "Flight Simulator 9" directory - which kinda was the point - figuring something I installed in re those TCAS guages was the culprit...) So, I am stumped. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, -Chris TrafficLook.txt

So sorry, Pete. I dug a little deeper and found my key. I would have updated this post, but (as I am a new FlightSim user) it hadn't posted yet. (I had to follow a few more links from SimMarket... I had a 12-digit order-confirmation, or something. Thanks for your help and many, many thanks for such a massively useful tool.

Hello. I just bought a key (I think) for fsuipc (for fs9) from simMarket. What I have is a 16-digit key. The registration form in fsuipc seems to want a 12-digit key. How do I proceed?
