FS2004 specific data

[blagd1b]

:?: I have created a VB program that reads various data from FS via FSUIPC (3.45), this works fine for offsets upto and including Hex6000 (FS2004 GPS data). However, whenever I read data beyond this area, e.g. C00C (weather dynamics) or E000 (AI ground traffic), the returned values are always zero.

If I use FSInterrogate to look at these offsets there is definitely non-zero data present. Why can I get correct data for most offsets but not for C00C onwards (which are mostly (?) FS2004 specific data)?

Thanks in anticipation.

Hi,

try to add the char "&" behind those HEX values. Example: &HC000&. This should work fine. The problem is that VB thinks that &HC000 is a negative integer value. Using "&" will force a Long value in VB.

Hope this helps
