markbrumbaugh Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 In FSX [Module] I have GPSout.ini and GPSout.dll GPSout.ini has Sentences=RMC,PGRMZ Port=WideFS Speed=9600 and the rest of the standard stuff WideClient on my client has the following wideclient.ini ; PLEASE SEE WideFS documentation for parameter details ; ===================================================== [Config] Port=8002 Window=270,4,886,589 Visible=Yes ButtonScanInterval=20 ClassInstance=0 NetworkTiming=5,1 MailslotTiming=2000,1000 PollInterval=2000 Port2=9002 ResponseTime=18 ApplicationDelay=0 TCPcoalesce=No WaitForNewData=500 MaxSendQ=100 OnMaxSendQ=Log NewSendScanTime=50 Priority=3,1,2 ; =============================================== [sounds] Path=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\FSUIPC4\Sound\ Device1=Primary Sound Driver Device2=SoundMAX HD Audio ;__________________________________________________ ;[user] ;Run1=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Moving Map\Moving Map\BSSMM\BSSMM.exe ;Log=Errors+ [GPSout] Port=COM255 Speed=9600 Note...I had to rem out the Run1 because I was getting an [error=2], anthough I can use Blue Sky Moving Map by manually starting it. This error started after I worked on my GPSout stuff I have the port emulator on my client set up and appears to be working OK pairing ports 255 and 4. However TopoUSA and Microsoft streets both crash and burn when I try to feed it the GPSout data. Does it make any difference what com ports I pair on the client? Is 255 too big? Which one goes first? Or am I using the wrong sentences? or is TOPOUSA not compatible? It works fine with a Garmin GPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 In FSX [Module] I have GPSout.ini and GPSout.dll GPSout.DLL is for use with FSUIPC3 and FS9 or earlier. For FSX and later the GPSout feature is part of FSUIPC4, and its INI parameters are part of the FSUIPC4.INI file. Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markbrumbaugh Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Since I already had previously a free version of FSUIPC, I didn't even read that stuff and just went with the WideFS stuff. Your suggestion worked. I must have read all the directions 50 times and missed that I didn't need GPSout with FSX and new FSUIPC. Thanks for the help. Your advice was 5 minutes to fix after I spent three hours. All is working fine now. (Well, except for Delorme stuff which is buggy on its own right. I still am getting a message that WideFS cannot load moving map, but I can do it manually fine after the error=2 message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Error 2 is simply the Windows error "file not found": you have an error in the path or filename. And remember you need to put it all in quote "..." if there are spaces in it anywhere.
