STB "Trusted" in FSX

[eeyore]

Hello Simon

Long time no contact, just goes to show how good STB is.

I have recently undertaken a complete re-install of OS and Software on the PC I use for FSX.

I have just started the process of "adding" the 3rd party software like STB.

Basically, STB works as it should across the networked configuration I use and all is great in that department.

However, every time I start FSX I have to "allow" FSX to start STBDS, screen shot attached.

My FSX.CFG file shows the following entry:

[Trusted]

F:\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC4.dll.ctbtolouuiabeqacrtrbbkhnqlkirwnkkqkrzeui=1

F:\FlyingWSimulation\StbDataServer.exe.lkhekoeihtouorecotnarqihnhunkntolaiqttne=1

I understand this may not be an STB issue as such but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

More importantly I guess, what might I have forgotten to do?

Kind Regards

Stuart

I might be wrong about this as I dont use a networked setup but check your dll.xml file and make sure the ManualLoad line reads "False" not true, as can be seen below.

<Launch.Addon>
	<Name>SuperTrafficBoard Server</Name>
	<Disabled>False</Disabled>
	<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
	<Path>C:\Program Files (x86)\FlyingWSimulation\SuperTrafficBoard V3.1\STBServer\STBServer.dll</Path>
  </Launch.Addon>[/CODE]

Thanks Andy. If it's not that, check also the "global" entry:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>

<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">

<Descr>Launch</Descr>

<Filename>EXE.xml</Filename>

<Disabled>False</Disabled>

<Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>

That affects all entries in the file, and should also be "False".

OK a search for a dll.xml file found one located in "C:\Users\FSX\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX".

This did not contain the entry you specify, although it did contain and similar entry for FSUIPC4.

Where do I look for this "global entry" as referred to by Simon?

It's in the first few lines (6th in mine) of that file as show in Simons post, what you see in Simons last post is how the file should begin. You should have an entry exactly as I posted in my last post for STB (if installed in the default folder), so it sounds like the install process didn't work properly, I'll let Simon continue with support now.

Ahhhhh ok

In this location "C:\Users\FSX\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX".

I also have a file called "exe.xml"

In that file is the following entry:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>

<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">

<Descr>Launch</Descr>

<Filename>EXE.xml</Filename>

<Disabled>False</Disabled>

<Launch.ManualLoad>True</Launch.ManualLoad>

<Launch.Addon>

<Name>SuperTrafficBoard Data Server</Name>

<Disabled>False</Disabled>

<Path>F:\FlyingWSimulation\StbDataServer.exe</Path>

</Launch.Addon>

</SimBase.Document>

I therefore assume that I need to change the entry "<Launch.ManualLoad>True</Launch.ManualLoad>" to read instead "<Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>".

Is that correct?

Regards

Stuart

Yes it is, like I said earlier I have never used the data server so was unsure of its configuration file location, changing that entry to "False" should rectify your problem.

Hey Andy, many thanks to you and Simon for getting this all sorted. Regards Stuart

PS: I find the ability to use STB on a seperate old cheap (£20-Ebay) second hand laptop increases usability of STB many fold.

Your welcome Stuart, glad I could help a little.

I use STB on a second touch screen monitor where I have all my flight planning and other FS utility program's. I actually have 2 graphics cards and three screens in total all dedicated to Flight Simming, the third screen is usually a dedicated GPS (VRinsight GPS5) or FMC (VRinsight CDU2) depending on what aircraft I am flying.
