Autosve feature for fsuipc 3.9

[nrcapes]

I have registered versions of FSUIPC for both FS9 and FSX. I really like the Autosave feature of FSUIPC 4.57 for FSX but there doesn't seem to be a corresponding feature in the manual for FSUIPC 3.99 for FS9. Is there another add-on tnat implements this through FSUIPC 3.99?

thanks!

Yes, it is AUTOSAVE.DLL, which is the freeware predecessor to the facilitiy in FSUIPC4. It's available along with all my stuff on the http://www.schiratti.com/dowson page.

I have found that autosave.dll interferes with the Save/Load feature of Radar Contact v4 if timed files are used. RC4 Save cannot save an .rcd file because autosave.dll manages these files. A workaround is to change autosave.cfg to save only a My Restart file. Then the RC4 Save/Load works.

I've always used RC4 with timed AutoSaves without any problem. Perhaps you have the interval set too tightly, preventing a successful save for RC? (It calls the same routines in FSUIPC as AutoSave). I have mine set to 3 minute intervals, with a cycle of 10 saved files max, thus allowing a restart for anything in the last 30 minutes.
